Aahe has been everywhere for weeks. The 225 hp changes were very good to her.
Don’t see any bad changes here. All small changes to rein in some heroes that are overperforming.
Ashe is better currently overall, cass does one job slightly better than ashe, coach gun is way better, also ashe has instant reload too, you just need one or two bullets.
also cass instant reload just gives him ash level bullets.
Also flashbang is useful with a couple flankers but mag nade was better.
im a tracer main, none of this matters to me.
what’s wrong with that , just outsnipe her simple

I disagree. A character that’s consistently the second best pick is just the pick that manages to avoid nerfs because others are constantly taking 1st place.
It’s the same concept as Reaper being constantly deprioritized for reworks because other characters are more popular. Once or twice, it’s acceptable, but after 3 to 4 times you start to question if the character will ever be in line for what they deserve.
I didn’t play OW when Ashe was released, so I don’t really have a perspective on her balance from back then, other than what a few of my friends telling me she was just a better Cree.
Post-falloff range introduction though, I think is when she really started being a dominant pick. Even against dive, her main priority is getting picks on squishies, rather than the tank, so I believe she can avoid being targeted by simply sticking with the team and generating value off of the enemy team’s now-defenseless squishies.
No shes not lmfao they just nerfed every other hitscan to unviability so shes the only one left.

these are what they call “job security patches” Where they break something, just so they can fix it later.
its like the shady car repair man. Put low quality oil in the car, so the customer returns 3 months later for another oil change or an entire overhaul.
#1 reason why I wont go to a garage for an oil change. better luck with John Deere oil than Pennzoil, mobil or especially vavoline. (stuff turns to water in a month).

I think the vast majority knows that buffing Sombra is a terrible idea.

You don’t understand the Sombra nerfs, clearly.
Sombra now HAS to hack you in order to deal real burst damage with her virus, which gives you twice as long to react to her.
Winston nerf is great, but I think they should also reduce barrier duration.
She already did hack me
That was the problem lol
Hack in invis so you cant react immediately into virus and smg burst. That hasn’t been fixed
Juno gun feels way better now that it’s back to it’s old fire rate. So glad for that

Why are you surprised they screwed up again? You’re acting like you thought this patch would fix the issues and deal with the actual problems. The years of evidence is that when faced with two choices - the right choice and the wrong choice, the Overwatch team overwhelmingly makes the wrong decision.
Do you nerf Dva or not right now? It’s a simple question with a simple answer. They had a choice and they picked wrong. Bet on it
An insult to monkeys

Laughable sombra nerfs and nothing to DVA. Makes sense.
Hack is not invisible. She is IMMEDIATELY visible when starting the hack.
I’m not saying I’m happy about where Sombra is at, I think her rework was awful and on exacerbated the issues people had with her.
If you can’t react to her when she has to hack you, then aim and shoot virus, you might have other issues tho like positioning, etc.
Shooting virus immediately out of stealth isn’t really an option against most heroes anymore, which was her most problematic issue in this rework.
ashe is like the best dps in the game with the support health changes she can get picks hella easy

Literally everyone could’ve predicted that buffing her burst by 10 while nerfing half the roster by 25, and on top of that megabuffing her mobility would be a problem.

Loooooool
Imagine trying to critique someone’s positioning vs sombra, a hero who doesnt have to have any positioning whatsoever cus you can go anywhere uncontested for free
What do sombra players know about positioning???
I mean, there were new “Sombra bad for the game” posts every single day prior to the buffs so yes people very much knew it. She already was a toxic disaster already and heavily complained about, now the disaster is just forced rather than optional.
I’d say the buffs simply put into front and center how bad she is for the game, from a hero design perspective. And her numbers buff just ensures you’re reminded of it 90% of your matches
