Yeah Moira doesn’t have very much survivability compared to most other supports. Not sure how they’d go about buffing her.

As much as I love Animetic and watching her videos, calling her a T500 Mercy main is not true.
She has reached T500 once back in the day when Mercy had the double instant rez and playing with Buckle (a T500 flex player).
Currently she is hovering around high masters, low GM. The difference between low GM and T500 is huge. I’ve had her last season on my team, and I never made it into GM.
Yea about that
Season 14. And in the comments she mentions it’s a third time she’s made it to top 500.
The whole point of that post was however, the usage of mercy’s guardian angel mechanics, super jump and angelic descent to make acrobatics on point and how much a nerf that disallowed healing during flight would kill the character as a whole. Not the top 500 part that you latched onto.
I stand corrected, I forgot about this video.
BUT getting barely there and losing in doesn’t make you a T500.
My friend who has reached diamond 5x (3010SR) is also not a diamond player. He’s a plat who got lucky a few times, he usually hovers around 2800 SR.
Steevoo is a T500 player because he can stay consistently in it. Emongg is a T500 player because he can stay consistently in it.
Animetic is not a T500 Mercy main, because she cannot stay there consistently.
It’s the same with me calling myself GM eventhough I play around 3900SR and my high is 3990SR. One could say luck is not on my side, The 3990SR game was a close call, we almost won. Wouldn’t still make me a GM.
EDIT: I know what you meant to say with your OG post.
It irritates me that people call her a T500 when she’s clearly not.
Pharah: more movement speed in the air, better control when strafing
Junkrat: grenades do 80 dmg, concussion mine stays at 120. After first bounce grenades do half the dmg.
Tracer: increased spread on her dual smg. Cuts the engagement range in half so she has to stay in fights longer/be more exposed to counterplay. Or lose one of her blinks so she is forced to engage or retreat – not both.
Genji: dash should be 8 meters at most. Dragonblade range should be 3m or less. Can forfeit the range if we cut the duration by 2 more seconds.
Hanzo: no more headshots. Every kill should feel dutiful. If your aim is that good then another arrow wont mean flip.
Widowmaker: add falloff.
Ashe: bob health down to 800 or damage reduced to 8 per shot. Can forfeit that if we cut the duration of bob in half. Bob can no longer contest objectives.
Thats all I can drum up for now. Of course its only my opinion.
Then you’re clearly just ignoring the whole point of my original post and keep latching onto this supposedly irritating aspect of my post, which is calling animetic top 500 player, but you JUST had to reply to me.
I don’t actually care about that opinion of yours and I’m not factually wrong either and I also do not care where this irritation stems from (I could make educated guesses), but it has little bearing on this topic and my post in general and I’m not interested in this argument with you what is considered a top 500 player.
Genji
Genji has retired. He has found peace with himself, renounced all violence and settled somewhere in Nepal.

Reinhardt:
- Earthshatter now blocked by the payload.
- Earthshatter “cooldown” increase. Reinhardt has to wait more to start charging his next ultimate after using Earthshatter so he doesn’t have 15-30% of his ult just for finishing enemies that just got up.

Spamrat is a nuisance, much like Spamzo.
We need to see more of these skillful plays and less random kills in the game.
This sounds like fun, I have a lot of QoL changes I’d like to see but I’ve never thought out a patch for balance like this.
Hmm.
Reaper
- Shadowstep now reloads ammo and can now be used when Reaper is reloading.
Shadowstep not being usable during Reapers reload basically puts the ability on an impromptu 1.5 second cooldown which can feel bad in some situations where you really need a quick escape - Seems Reaper is a bit weak overall, letting him reload automatically should help in some very edge cases without overloading him with any direct power
Pharah
- New Passive: Raptora Mark VI - Life support systems: Now permanently regenerates 5 hp per second.
Pharah relies heavily on healing support, by giving her a small amount of health regeneration she will be able to function slightly more independently without making her significantly more difficult to handle when she is receiving the healing support.
While the health regen is low, it should allow her to be more comfortable returning to combat after seeking out one small health pack instead of requiring a mega or multiple small packs and not worry about health loss from the occasional bit of splash damage
Ana
- Nano Boost healing reduced to 175
- Biotic nade now passess through full health allies.
Biotic nade can now more easily connect with Ana’s opponents when her allies are not in need of healing and she is less likely to be blocked by nearby supports getting in the way. Reducing the heal on nano is to compensate for the extra power she has gained.
Zenyatta
- Discord duration reduced from 3 seconds to 2 seconds.
Zen now has to work harder to keep LOS if he wants discord to remain up on players actively trying to avoid his LOS.
Zarya
- Energy gain from bubbles now scale from 0-30 energy but provide 10 bonus energy if fully destroyed.
This should make Zarya’s bubble timing far more important but in the cases where the bubble would be fully destroyed still provide her with the same level of energy. This should also make her more carefully consider 1v1 combat situations when low on energy.
Widowmaker
- Headshot multiplier is reduced to 2.0x until fully charged (2.5x at full charge)
Widowmaker in the right hands can be crazy, this is targeted at the higher level of play where headshots are more frequently connecting faster and without being fully charged - Players in the lower brackets will still be about as effective if they were frequently making body shots and taking their shots when fully charged.
He’s one of the weakest dps in the game and you want him nerfed!?
