To counter Mercy’s Rez? She has the ability to revive fallen heroes so Reaper, based on his name, should be able to prevent that with an ability of his own that lets him block a specific target from her.
Of course I don’t mean this should replace any existing abilities he has already. Maybe the interaction button could work.
His what? This some pre-alpha ability or something
Simply wouldnt be feasible honestly, unless other resurrection abilities enter the game, or it also affects other similar abilities in a certain way
Have one hero’s mechanic directly counter another’s intentionally, is bad design, not only for the countered hero, but the counterer.
Mercy would have more to lose, than Reaper would have to gain from it, and there’s nothing stopping either from just switching and making the interaction pointless.

All that this video shows me is that Reaper is edgy, and Bastion has always been rather useless.

idk I didn’t watch the video. I looked up “reaper soul orbs” and posted the first video

It’s basically a compilation of Bastion dying in various ways, mercy being a healbot, and Reaper nomming souls.

if mercy is meta, reaper will never be played, its an irrelevant matchup
So you watched the first 30 seconds and turned it off
Nice snark, but I was responding to the original post, not the stupid video
Maybe you should have watched. Your 1st reply sounds kinda dumb when there’s a video right there above it explaining everything and good solutions
How do they sound dumb they were just pointing out there was a video which explains it??? You don’t have to be rude to people who are trying to help
When is Reaper going to be useful for countering Res? All of the hitscan that do well against Reaper are the ones who have the pocket. Reaper already has a low chance of winning that duel.
It’s not a great design to have an ability that’s only use is to counter the ability of exactly one other hero.
You will not find this kind of thing anywhere else in the game.
