She’s right inbetween Tracer and Hanzo.
It comes down to this. He’s tasked with peeking against 1-shot range heroes at lesser effective range, and trying for dinks on stuff with all kinds of hitbox, escapes and ilive buttons. He’s usually in the hotzone, where spam/splash bullies him around and reduces his time shooting. Meanwhile he takes a while to relocate and is easily wrecked or out-rotated by dive, even though he’s supposed to be part of the ‘response’ to dive.
If they want dive to make a comeback McCree is one of the soft-counters but will be so horribly kited or wrecked by basic poke + tank/diver drops (one to eat flash and both to kill complete each other’s damage).
He needed 50 more hp to make various breakpoints.
Symmetra breakpoints center more around kit than hp or dmg.
Why would you ever want that? If you could wish for one symm buff, hp is just naive, dmg is just creep/bloat, and tp would be the proper answer. But she’s fine as is.
Because Sym is the only brawler type tank buster without 250 hp.
She is not a brawler type tank buster…at all. Her M1 can be used like that, but it involves tons of mistakes on their/your part.
I was half joking. At this point all supp and tanks would rage quit the game if they got nerfed any further
We all have man since 2016 and somewhat during beta phase when the game was fresh. 250hp just to have somewhat a hint of survivability even if it wasn’t enough, but here we are.
This was literally a insult to Sym mains because when you go through every suggestion threads there’s always going to be a 250hp one for survivability. These developers knew dude and pretending like it never existed…like Symmetra for an example.
which means to this day they still don’t know what to do with her kit. Fascinating hilarious.

tanks and supports need to realize that the game has revolved around nothing but them for the past almost 2 years since brig was added, maybe if they realize that they’ll stop being so salty and understand why stuffs getting nerfed smh
Hes not really that long ranged. Mccree often as to get in the fight.
And I think 250 hp junkrat would be nice.
I’ve seen suggestions that Soldier and Genji get 250HP, but I don’t see a dozen threads about that right now.
That you FEEL insulted and that something is an insult are not the same. They didn’t change McCree to troll Sym mains.

Sym isn’t hated, she just isn’t a big burly Cowboy with a hitbox bigger than Mei, Reaper, Brig & Zarya like McCree is. If anyone needed a HP buff, it was McCree, which I’ve been asking for for a long time. His 200hp is half the reason his ult has been trash since launch, you don’t have the survivability to use it for more than a reload most of the time
On that note, I do think Sym could use a buff like faster orbs
Not as much as Symm who is even more squishy than McCree.
It just comes down to Blizzard not wanting Symm to be viable. I mean, she was nerfed within 30 days of finally being viable for the first time in the games history.
i think to think it was meant to buff his ult. this way he has 50hp worth of time to look at his watch and correctly state the time
(ALRIGHT NOW) ITS (ACTUALLY) HIIIIIIGH NOOON
there has been some discussion about this since mccree has low mobility and bigger hitbox than most dps characters.
but it’s not like the pharah/sym “please buff” parade we’ve had for a long time.
there’s a case to be made for all 3 characters.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they actually added that dialogue for him.
