I guess that is pretty funny in hindsight, lol.
Ignore them.
If spouting off stats confirmed by Jeff Kaplan, himself are “cherry-picked” then they’re not worth your time.
The forums certainly have some delusional players.
And you would still be wrong, considering your claim was:
When clearly that wasn’t the case, as confirmed by the stats he presented. Just take your L and move on. Or concede to the fact, that would be surprising enough.
Moira has historically been the least picked support hero. Nothing changed cause you chose a time that favored Moira and not Ana. Want me to do the same?

Again… stats from developers…

Your word on the matter.
Bro.
Moira has had one meta Ana has had
Beyblade
Triple tank
QUAD tank
Soldier/triple tank
End of dive transition into goats
End of goats when people figured out how to beat it
and now.
These are all facts. But hey, keep circle jerking each other.
Are you intentionally moving the goalposts 'cause you refuse to concede to the fact of your previous argument?
Being Moira has historically been the least picked?
Go away. I’m not interested in debating invincible ignorance.
And just for arguments sake:
Moira wasn’t out for these.
total of 3 months btw.
Moira was picked more than Ana for this.
And goats was 3 off healers during pro play, so you’re even more wrong than you imagined.

There is no goalpost moving. My original claim stands.
Moira has historically been the least picked support, Ana has historically had one of the higher pick rates for supports.
Though, with how Zen is this may of changed, but I doubt that since Goats went on for literally over a year.
Or, you are proven wrong like your buddy and are afraid to admit it. See ya too bucko.

Other stops your team from using their abilities but they can still use their primary fire (such as healing) and interrupting the emp, while the other doesn’t disable abilities, can be blocked but it disables their sustain entirely. Sound like pretty deadly on both. But one thing to note is that it’s not dangerous for Ana to lob bionades, but it’s dangerous for sombra to get a good emp. And bionade can be used far, far more often than emp can, for multiple effects simultaneously. It’s spammable nature makes it more forgiving in terms of usage.
And that would be why EMP is an ulti, not spammable ability and why bionade is a mini-ulti. But you can’t deny disabling sustain is powerful. Even when we have characters like Dva who can eat a bionade and Mei who can iceblock it in the meta, Ana is right at the top and it’s certainly not just because she’s the best single target healer.
Then there’s the nanoboost.
Doesn’t change anything.
No she wasn’t. They were picked together until they realized they didn’t need Ana/Moira at all.
You are dense, and lack reading comprehension. When people figured out how to beat goats (AKA the end of goats, exactly like I said) Ana was the healer used to enable it.
Now leave, like you said you were.
So you concede that one is different than the other on the grand scale of things… then go on to up play it anyway for arguments sake?
Like, this isn’t even true. I’ve already explained to you shield armor, and armor for that matter, stacks through anti. So, sustain still gets through… as well, it can be clensed in many ways… and prevented all together from happening.
“mini ult” though.
And you are reported. Trolling and just straight up ad hom.

Complaining about the other supports is however a DPS past time, which puts us in this position.
Any hero is which good vs flankers is complained about constantly.

Emp and anti heal effects are different, but both are essentially death sentence to enemy team, leaving them with fairly little options besides hard retreating unless they want to get killed by enemy team rushing them. Immunities also work against emp though if used pre-emptively.
Brigitte cannot stack armor with her repair packs through anti-heal though, because the armor component doesn’t appear till the character is healed to full from repair pack heal. So it would have to be rally and brig herself is neutered hard by anti.
What does this have to do with the recurring efforts to get Ana nerfed by Mercy mains?
That’s my entire point, you guys try to paint everything as DPS attacking supports but it’s Mercy and Moira mains attacking a support that does not need nerfs.
I can’t count how many other topics have various people complaining while people try to scapegoat it as flanker mains or some nonsense. Literally the only character that that I’ve seen where it was generally DPS having an issue with them is Moira.
Edit: I’m still shocked at the mental gymnastics it takes to go from reading who made this thread to still somehow blaming it on DPS players. You guys really have a problem.
Except it’s not. Again. You’re up playing the severity of one with a false equivalence. If an entire team gets anti’d. There are numerous ways to counter act it. If an entire team gets emp’d. they’ve literally only got their primary and movement keys.
I understand the comparison you’re trying to make. Don’t get met wrong, and for arguments sake, it does make sense. However you’re intentionally ignoring the glaring differences that separate the two, which undeniably makes one an actual death sentence compared to the other.

It is why she ends up more powerful than the other supports. It leads to the situation where this has to happen.
Well, DPS attacked the other supports, so she end up over powered COMPARED to them.
Yes, it is the support players saying “for the love of god, lets not have Ana being the strongest for an age AGAIN”
But what causes this is the nerfs to the other supports which is driven by the DPS players.
If the other supports were not nerfed, she wouldn’t end up OP compared to the rest.
If she doesn’t need nerfs, then when the other supports are roughly the same level of power shouldn’t be attacked, by they are.

It’s expected that she end ups stronger than the other main supports.
Hard cold truth: Skill ceiling should matter in a competitive game
As I said before, you really have a problem.
Everyone complained about Mercy Moth Meta, Brigitte(tanks hated Brig more than anyone else) and double barrier meta.
It’s like a formula or something that you guys use to try to bring it back to blaming DPS players. I’ve literally been hearing this same anti-Ana argument from Mercy players for years, it has nothing to do with the DPS. If it did DPS players would be in here trying to get Ana nerfed too. It’s an obsession that you guys cannot let go.
They will somehow make this truth out to being DPS players fault instead of a universal truth that causes most players in the game to not have an issue with Ana.
