What would you do to Overwatch

I want to play dev for a little
This is what I would do to all of the heroes
(Definitely no bias towards Sym and Mercy)
Sry for the wall of text

DPS

ASHE

  • Weapon
    Reload speed increased slightly
  • Dynamite
    Once dynamite has hit the ground it can be shot by enemy’s to blow it up, which will still make it damage them.
  • BOB
    She can no longer gain ult charge while he is active.
    I believe she is the only hero who could do this and it doesn’t really make sense

Bastion
Rework

  • Health
    100 hp 200 armor

  • Sentry mode
    Can now headshot
    Has 500 ammo
    Bastion now takes 5 seconds to rev up to full dps and as he revs up he becomes more accurate
    He is able to move like in is old ult but has he revs up it becomes slower
    1 seconds 100% walking speed (75 dps)
    2 seconds 80% (100 dps)
    3 seconds 60% (150 dps)
    4 seconds 40% (200 dps)
    5 seconds 20% (250 dps)
    This will make it so he is still very lethal in sentry mode, but cant give full damage right away. This also will let him be more mobile and not be so reliant on his team

  • Energy Shield (E ability)
    Bastion can now deploy a shield in front of him that weakens the stronger he gets and reduces the damage he takes by 50%
    Lasts 5 seconds
    Cooldown 8 seconds
    In recon mode (1000 hp)
    1 seconds of firing (1000 hp)
    2 seconds of firing (900 hp)
    3 seconds of firing (800 hp)
    4 seconds of firing (600 hp)
    5 seconds of firing (400 hp)
    This would work basically like iron clad, but is not on him all of the time to give counter play

  • Configuration Tank (Ultimate)
    Ultimate lasts 10 seconds or till 6 bomb shells are fired off
    Each bomb shell does 200dmg
    1 bomb shell can be fired a second
    Energy shield can be deployed during this time (400 hp)

  • Self Repair (Passive)
    After 4 seconds of Bastion not taking damage and Bastion not firing he begins to repair his armor at a rate of 50hps

Doomfist
Rework
(Dont rlly know what to do with him)

  • Rocket Punch
    Now does 50 dmg upon impact and 260 upon contact with a wall.
  • Seismic Slam
    Can now travel a max distance of 18m
  • Rising Uppercut
    Enemies lose air control till they reach the max height Uppercut brings them.
  • Meteor strike
    When Doomfist activates meteor strike he boosts up to the max height and where he can be shot at.
    He takes 50% less dmg
    He stays up at the max height for a max of 4 seconds where he will decide a landing zone where he launches down dealing a max of 600 dmg in a radius of 2m falling off to 400 damage within a radius of 3 m then finally falling off to zero dmg within a radius of 5m
    He takes 1 second to land
    Enemies can see where he is positioning the landing zone at all times
    I think his previous nerfs were way to harsh and which his ultimate it was either unfair to play against or now unfun and bad to play as. With the new ult it can still be used as an escape tool and still has counter play while being lethal

Genji

  • Weapon
    He has increased projectile speed.

  • Swift strike
    Only is granted the Swift strike return is he gets the finishing blow on an enemy.

  • Dragon Blade
    Lasts 8 seconds or until 6 swipes are used
    1 swipe a second
    No longer grants swift strike return when activated
    Swift strike is returned on all eliminations not just final blows.
    His weapon felt very inaccurate at longer ranges and this should help him some.

Hanzo
Rework

  • Weapon
    Now has ammo
    Has 10 ammo
    Has a “spread” that reduces the further you draw back the bow
    Time to draw bow back is increased by 0.5 seconds
    Arrows travel significantly faster
    3x headshot multiplier
    Does 95 dmg once fully drawn back

  • Storm arrow
    Does 75 dmg and cannot headshot
    Increased time in between shots by 0.25 seconds
    Has 5 arrows
    Cooldown reduced to 8 seconds

  • Leap
    Distance is increased by 2m
    6 second coooldown

  • Ultimate Dragons Strike
    When Hanzo activates his ult he draws back a blue arrow for 1 second
    The dragons are then released and travel 8 m in front of him dealing 100 dmg
    At the end of 8m the heads bite down dealing 300 dmg and extend to 10m
    The dragon travels the 8m withing 0.75 seconds and chomp down after 0.50 seconds
    Hanzo or “Spamzo” now has ammo so he cant spam and can no longer 2 shot body shot. He can still one-shot kill if an opponent has 285 hp or lower. This will still make lethal if he can hit those shots. Storm arrow no longer be able to kill any tank just by itself unless he fires one arrow before he activates it. This is to stop a snipe from deleting tanks. His ultimate change is so it can be letha. With this change he will still be able to combo with others, but it can stand alone now

Junkrat
Rework

  • Weapon
    Grenades are brought back to original projectile size
    Increase ammo to 8
  • Mines
    Mines now deal the full 120 dmg withing 0.5m radius (Whatever the original range was) then fall of to 0 dmg after 0.10m radius
    Damage isnt effected till you reach the end of its range where it expericences extreme fall off
  • Steal Trap
    Steal trap has a 15 second cooldown
    Junkrat can place an infinite amount of traps on the map
    Traps are almost invisible to the enemy team
    Traps have 10 health
    Traps trap people for 5 seconds
    If the person traped spams a-d they will be released as soon as 1.5 seconds
  • Rip-Tire
    Rip-Tire moves slightly faster
    Timer is reduced to 6 seconds
    Enemies get a better directional cue from its noise
    Timer doesn’t go down when climbing walls
    Tire can no longer turn as faster as before
    Tire hp is increased to 125
    Junkrat can how hold his ground better with the larger grenades and new traps. His mines now feel better but wont be unfair like previously to the enemy. His ultimate will still be lethal, but you can no longer have it out for such a long amount of time and can not circle people as well as before

Mcree
Rework

  • Fan the Hammer
    Damage reduced to 50
  • Flash bang
    Damage increased to 30
    Flash bang now works like the one in CS:GO. It causes the scree to flare white and have the last seen image before being stunned stay they for 2 seconds then fades back to normal
    Flash bang stun durration decreased to 0.01 seconds
  • Combat roll
    Roll distance increased by 2m
    Cooldown reduced to 7 seconds
  • Dead eye
    Once Mcree activates this ability the next 3 bullets he shoots deal 0 damage but apply the flash bang effect for 5 seconds to an enemy
    The next bullet he fires into a person applied with this effect will have its damaged double
    You can not stack effects on one person
    This will make it so Mcree still can pull of lethal FTH combos on people with 305 hp or less, but it no longer will destroy tanks. His Dead eye was realy bad and used as a reload button so it was changed significantly. When mcree does this it gives him very good crowd control and a spike in damage where if he head shots a person with 200 hp that have the effect they will instantly die.

Mei

*Cryo-Freeze
Lasts 2 seconds longer
Will heal her to full where HPS is dependent on the health she has when she started Cryo-Freeze
Now Instantly reloads Mei’s weapon
Cool down starts after Cryo-Freeze has ended and has a Cool down of 8 seconds

  • Ice wall
    Ice wall can not be climbed by Genji, Hanzo or Reaper
    Ice wall’s cooldown now starts once the wall is destroyed
    Has a cool down of 5 seconds
  • Billzard
    Blizzard activates quicker once it has reached the ground
    Mei now can have more crown control with her wall and it can be used more without having to worry about a very long cool down. Cryo-Freeze felt very bad and was maily only used as a short immunity to one ability. Cryo-Freeze now can be used in more situations with a lower cooldown

Phara
Rework

  • General
    Phara has more control over her movement in the air
  • Jump Jet
    Now knows back enemies within a 3m radius of her
    The colser to the center of the Jump Jet radius the further an enemy is knocked back
  • Heat Seeking Missile (Replaces Concussive blast)
    Phara releases 1 heat seeking missile that travels at the speed slightly slower than fire strike
    Deals 145 damage
    Can be shot out of the air
    Has 5 hp
  • Barrage
    Phara Fly high in the air where she has 5 seconds to place up to 3 crosshairs over 3 different people or over 1 if she presses the abilities button again
    during this time she has a 50% damage reduction
    Phara now release a barrage of 16 heat seeking missiles per person where each deals 25 damage and has 3 hp
    During her ult heat seeking missiles travel as fast as normal rockets
  • Plummet (Passive)
    When in the air if Phara Crouches she falls to earth much faster than normal
    Phara lost Concussive blast which felt underwhelming to use, but lost some movement in the air so we gave her more control over her movement. She also lost the ability to get environmental kills so now with Plummet and Jump jet she can still pull off environmental kills. With heat seeking missile you can now overwhelm you enemies with your air control. Barrage felt like either you got 4 kills or you dies instantly. Now Phara can have more suitability while she is using barrage and it has some counter play to the missiles during it.

*Rocket Fuel
Phara has 15% more rocket fuel

Reaper
Rework

  • Wraith Form
    When reaper activates Wraith Form he turns into a black mist traveling across the floor and up walls for up to 6 seconds
    Wraith Form still can be canceled and refills his ammo

  • Syphon Soul
    When reaper has killed someone he can syphon their soul and can chose to steal on of the enemies basic abilities
    Syphoned abilities effectiveness is reduced by 25%
    Enemies who has had their ability syphoned have their effectiveness reduced by 25%, and the ability becomes black with mist surrounding it
    He can keep a Syphoned ability for 45 seconds
    Cooldown 10 seconds
    Repear can get rid of a syphoned ability by pressing interact but the cooldown is increased by 15 seconds for that one time.
    What every ability he syphones will be bound to the syphon ability button

  • Life Steal
    Reduced to 35%
    Reaper’s new Wriath form now has the combined effect of his previous Wraith form and Shadow step in one ability. Syphon soul gives reaper many new options to play how he wants, and to turn the tide of a game. Reaper would most likely use this ability at the end of a fight for next fight making the timer on it long.

Soldier 76
Rework

  • Weapon
    Damage increased to 21
    Weapon spread starts after the 8th bullet
  • Helix Rocket
    Cooldown reduced to 6 seconds
  • Sprint
    Has a resource bar
    Sprints 15% faster
    Resource bar will deplete after 10 seconds
    Resource bar will refill within 4 seconds
  • Biotic Pack
    Soldier 76 will consume a Biotic Pack which instantly heals him for 50 hp and them 100 hp over 5 seconds
    Cool down starts after healing has stopped
    Cooldown 5 seconds
  • Tactile Visor
    Helix Rockets now will also lock on to targets
    Soldier 76’s biotic field wasn’t very good for that long of a cooldown it had. Many of his teammates did benefit from it either so we made it more personal. This will give his an initial burst heal and some sustained healing. Sprint was made faster so we added a resource so it can not be used all they time, but is up most of the time

Sombra
Rework

  • Weapon
    Spread reduced moderately
    Damage per bullet increased to 10

  • Translocater
    When you destroy the translocator it instantly goes off cooldown
    Translocator has 50 hp

  • Hack
    Can only hack a target if they are below 75% hp
    Hack goes on a 1 second cooldown when interrupted
    Hack no longer disables abilities but puts them all on cool down or up to a 15 second cooldown
    When hacking an enemy with a shield their shield is broken
    When hacking any enemy 2+ time in a row its effectiveness is reduced by 50% This is negated if the had died

  • EMP
    EMP will reset all enemies cooldowns as long as they are inside the radius

  • Opportunist
    Enemies are revealed when they are below 75% hp
    When enemies are revealed to you you deal 10% more damage to them and this effect lingers on them for 5 seconds
    When enemies are revealed to you you hack 10% faster to them and this effect lingers on them for 5 seconds
    This effect only applies to enemies that sombra is not in combat with
    Sombra felt like all of her power was put into her hack ability where she was strong but everywhere else was bad. This makes it so hack is still powerful but not where all of her power is. Her passive felt very underwhelming because most of the time they could just be healed up by the time you got there so now the effect lingers letting you get them.

Symmetra

Some ideas from here
Reverted back to 2.0
Moved to support

  • Weapon
    Primary fire is now lock on
    Locks on at 10m breaks at 12m
    – The more accurate you are with the beam the more it does
    In the center it deals 60/90/120 dmg
    In between the middle and edges it deals 60/80/100 dmg
    At the edges it deals 60/70/80 dmg
    It takes 1 second to ramp up and 2 seconds to ramp down
    Has 100 ammo
    – Secondary
    Orbs now travel 15m/s faster

  • Construct
    Symmetra can construct either turrets, shield gens, and/or teleporters
    Regenerates 1 ammo a second
    Tp’s, Shield gens, and turrets can all co-exist and don’t determine the others amount
    Can place constructs once the attackers are released from spawn
    – Turrets take 10 ammo to construct
    Turrtes have 10 hp
    Turrets deal 30 dmg
    Can have up to 10 turrets
    Can be thrown like in 3.0
    – Shield gen takes 50 ammo to construct
    Shield gen gives 25 shields
    Can have up to 3 Shield gens 3 lvl 1, 1 lvl 1 and 1 lvl 2, or 1 lvl 3 shield gen
    lvl 1 sg- 100 hp 100 shields; 25 shields within 60m
    lvl 2 sg- 100 hp 300 shields; 50 shields within 60m
    lvl 3 sg- 100hp 500 shields; 75 shields within 60 m
    – Tp takes 50 ammo to construct
    Tp gives 2 charges
    Can have up to 3 tp’s,3 lvl 1,1 lvl 1 and 1 lvl2, or 1 lvl 3 tp’s
    lvl 1 tp - 100 hp 100 shields; 2 charges
    lvl 2 tp- 100 hp 300 shields; 4 charges
    lvl 3 tp- 100 hp 500 shields; 6 charges

  • Photon Barrier
    Hp increased to 1500
    Can be stopped if you press the activation key again for up to 5 seconds
    Cooldown starts once shield is destroyed
    Cooldown is 8 seconds

  • Warped Reality
    Sym creates a bubble 30m in diameter
    2 pylons will appear withing the ultimate with 50hp and 100 shields each
    Once both pylons are destroyed the ultimate will disappear
    Last 8 seconds if pylons are not destroyed
    Allies will be buffed inside her ult and enemies will be debuffed
    –Ally buffs
    All Active cooldowns are reset once they enter the ultimate
    25% reduction on cooldown times
    Resource meter replenishment and 10% faster resource replenishment
    10% Ultimate charge increase
    – Symmetra
    Her photon projector stays at max charge for the duration of her ultimate
    –Enemies
    10% increase on cooldowns
    Ultimate cannot be activated within her ultimate
    If enemies are outside of her ult the ult distorts what the inside looks like and makes it blurry till they walk in
    Symmetra’s allies are invisible from the outside of her ultimate and so are her pylons

New hero (Echo? aka Symmetra 3.0)
This is because the sym community is very split with some loving 3.0 and other wanting 2.0

  • Tp
    Tp cooldown reduced to 10 seconds
    Takes 0.75 seconds to deploy
    Will always deploy on your feet
    Range increased to 30m

  • Weapon
    Ammo increased to 30
  • Turret
    Turret hp increased to 300

    Charges in half the time

Tanks

D.VA

    200hp 400 armor

    Increase amount of time DM is up to 3 seconds

    Resurrect can now be used and is bound to interact
    – Resurrect is instant and takes 8 seconds away from the Valkyrie timer
    This will give her time to fly for 4 seconds to get to the resurrection targets
    –Overcharged
    ex: If mercy decides to rez when there is only 3 seconds of valk left she will rez and the ult will end, but she will not gain ultimate charge fore 5 seconds

Give every hero the ability to resurrect, so people can shut up about Mercy. :smirk:

Now…this sounds interesting. Thumbs up on that one. The only thing I would change is the duration of an syphoned ability to keep. 45 seconds sounds crazy.

My god, do you work ? How do you have the time to put a list like this together?

I woudl have put all the programmers to be working on a permanent PvE and reworking ranked.

I am betting for 3 years, this game would have had way more content than now.

You want to sledge nerf Zarya, but;

Leave the strongest tank in the game as is? Okay then.

I made it 45 because he has to kill someone to get it which made me this it would prob be used at the end of a fight not during so he would have to wait to next fight to use it
