And the ones micro buffing sym and Orisa
Iâm most upset with lucioâs primarily fire nerfâŚjust why? I guess the devs just want lucio to troll and boop enemies for PotG. I donât like how they keep nerfing lucioâs damage potential. How is he going to duel hitscans now?

Itâs probably a moria and sombra main in charge of balancing. The easiest to get value heroâs got nothing for a nerf.

He is going to need to boop them a second time to maximize that damage potential. /s
i think the tracer nerfs are fine for now, sojourn and orisa do definitely nerfs and im mad they didnt get any, but 1 second on tracerâs recall will affect her just like how 1 second on brigs packs dramatically increased her healing and effectiveness last patch even tho sheâs still weak it did help, these nerfs on tracer will help pull her down a little even if sheâll still be strong, sym does need buffs idk why the reverted her buffs before other than the turret hp one turrets should never take more than 1 punch to kill and im glad they reverted that one but the also partially reverted the other buffs which i dont think she needed sheâs pretty useless right now in fights and only good for her tp which i think is too strong, tp should get a cooldown nerf and her beam should get a buff imo. genji i think if fine balance wise right now just too easily countered and other dps like sojourn or tracer are just stronger but id rather they get nerfed than buff genji. junk is also fine rn i say that as junk being my most played dps this season heâs fun and effective just weaker than the meta dps. support mostly sucks this season yea

It was nit a gigabuff and most of it got reverted (the parts that matter for ladder). It was a strictly pro play buff at the end.
This rein shatter buff is way bigger than a simple damage buff. At least 33% area increase and being able to get one more full swing in before they can use abilities
Your argument would work if it was 1 second extra on blinks, not an ability you rarely use off cd.

Sheâs always been strong and viable in high level play.
The health buffs, dps passive and bullet hitbox buffs have made her lethal on low levels as well.
Sheâs a powerful character, so she should be difficult to master.
Right now she is not.
I always found her difficult to get value out of, while a specialist on her was impossible to catch and kill.
Season 9 changes made her lethal in everyoneâs hands.
Sheâs been viable and strong in the right hands throughout owâs history. Now sheâs almost a must pick because she is so strong.
I have less than 30 hours on her i think, and i have started getting insane value with her in gold/low plat.
She needs her skill floor restored to where it used to be.

You almost had it, but then messed it up. Orisa is not OP and Genji is currently more than viable. He is one of the better DPS, but the rest I agree with.
Kid do you always pretend like this ? If you canât see tracer primary aim floor has sunk like a titanic from gm to bronze , you shouldnât be talking about game balance or anything
If you canât see that change has zero effect on reaper while extreme on widow tracer
Again you shouldnât talk about game balance
Just because the changes were global doesnât mean the effects arenât greatly varied individually

The duration buff is huge. It means he can swing on people 3 times now instead of 2 times. It was nerfed a long time ago for being too strong for a reason and now itâs being reverted back to that number.

You shouldnât even be comparing the two, genji is HOW she should be balanced. Be glad your character is even remotely viable.
???
genji is like bottom five dps right now, how do you even make that connection?
that would make tracer more useless than him since in certain ways she is harder to play.
genji is horrible, his damage before this season was terrible and now its among the worst in the role, just because its easier to hit shots doesnt mean that its easier to kill, you have to be so much more consistent at hitting your shots as a trade off and a 5% global accuracy increase for fast projectile based fire is not enough to warrant that.
lol genjiâs up there with tracer
Why does junk need a buff???
Sombra got a slap on the wrist while tracer got a knife to her finger.
Orisa needs nerfs I agree with that at least.
Sojourn literally has been the best DPS since OWâs 2 release she need a nerf.
Having 2 archetypes of heroes into one is too strong, you cant be fighting âprojectile S76â and one second later she turns into a widow and pressures a whole line as long as she has railgun
and she has AOE damage AND mobility creep on top of that.
Meanwhile cree is F tier and not receiving anything
Yeah why is this patch so light on changes? This sucks. Junkrat NEEDS more Concussion Mine health and more Riptire HP. It could even be a little faster too and it would be fine.
Uh, because he kinda sucks? Yeah. Iâm only advocating for more QOL things than anything, like his riptire HP not being scaled up along with hero HP, but yeah. Concussion Mine HP needs to be higher too so it doesnât just die from random low splash damage.
Have you ever had a game where your DPS pick Junk and Sym and theyâre playing into Tracer and Echo? Yeah. The gap in power is insane. It defies description.
My guess is that the devs want to see how Venture affects matters before making changes but who knows, really. Mind you, looking at the Lucio nerf, maybe itâs a good thing that they havenât done more this patchâŚ
It takes 30 seconds to read the patch notes, most changes are ridiculous and not really affecting anyone.
The laziest seasonal balance ever.
And yes, Symmetra not being touched in the slightest is really shocking at this point. After her beam buff reverted a week later without explanation and complete radio silence, I donât trust these people anymore.
