When you realize that tracer and Genji are the only two characters that have gotten only nerfed since release. :(

:frowning: Please bring us back to old overwatch when every character wasn’t power crept to hell

Actually I think it’s a good time now to revert the nerfs especially if you buff brig. Let’s be honest Brig needs a buff too like lower cooldowns or something.

Tracer got a slight Pulse Bomb buff a month ago so Genji is the only one.

Genji is one of the only characters i want gone from the game nobody can do anythign to him and he always gets away, plus you cant get away from him.

Its amazing how close minded and blind people can be.

Nerfing pulse bumb dmg from 400 to 300 and half reverting it to 350 does not count as a buff.

OP stated “gotten only nerfed” what means all balance changes towards her was nerf what is clearly false.

lol a good tracer is so much more annoying that a good genji.

And if the tracer is top tier you’re basically screwed.

Its true for tracer.
Half reverting/restoring something is not a buff, period. Arguing by looking at a single point in time just means youre incapable of actually getting the whole picture. In fact even looking at this single point in time the dev comments already say everything.

“…we’re restoring some of this lost power…”
Does that sound like a buff to you?

I think tracer is oddly enough decent in certain situations for this meta because if you’re a good backline tracer the double shields don’t really affect you and if you’re annoying enough it forces the other team’s dps to switch to McCree.

Personally McCree is one of my worse characters and top of that he has one of the worst win rates among all dps in the double shield meta because he can’t break double shields and his bullets just get wasted so if the tracer can make you switch to McCree, she probably did her job.

Also some of the healers get annoyed and give up their ults to switch to brig so that’s a double win for the tracer if that happens.

I would like to see brig lose the armor pack, cause it doesn’t make sense. I think she would be better with an ability like Baptiste’s shift AoE heal. Maybe not as strong, but it would give her some reasonable heal before she can get to melee. Couple that with more shield hp and I think she would be better. Her biggest problem IMO is her lack of healing if she can’t melee. I think she needs more reliable healing when not in melee, coupled with her melee healing where she will be optimal.

Not a buff, a nerf CTRL-Z.

It originally did 400, was nerfed to 300, CTRL-Z’ed to 350.

Moira says hello. (Characters)

“Genji” is a weird way to spell Reaper.

I could stand for Genji buffs. Bring DB back to 8 seconds. Put Deflect on a duration usage cooldown like D.Va’s DM so you can actually play mind games with it instead of just sitting there because they stopped shooting you. Make shurikens travel faster. Idk something.

tracer sucks…

no point in getting good with a specific hero in OW since the stupid people on the “balance” team at blizzard have no clue how to balance the game

if a character is OP, they nerf them for several years and never fix it… they just keep adding heroes to the game

47% winrate in GM and basically never picked in OWL

good job blizzard

keep adding heroes to a game you cannot properly balance

stupid people

good thing we got a sigma character that does DPS damage… and don’t worry about aim, because his projectiles will just bounce around until they hit an enemy

keep adding the no-skill heroes

shieldwatch

and you guys wonder why people stopped watching OWL? maybe people don’t want to see 3/3… and even with 2/2/2 the game is all shields

DPS characters aren’t even good that is why they put in role lock because these people have no idea how to balance their game… so they just are gonna force people to play DPS despite being underpowered… lol @ that

doomfist and reaper are literally dominating the pro scene right now and “dps arent good.” goats was barely a thing besides in owl and “dps needed role queue”. do you ever think shieldwatch exists BECAUSE damage is too high? the goats nerfs (which were useless to stop goats as the devs just added role lock anyways) - especially the armour nerf hurt tanks like rein and dva a LOT. shieldwatch is a thing because any other tank would get melted into oblivion.

Tracer had a 400 damage pulse bomb, dropped to 300, bumped to 350. Going to 350 isn’t a buff, it’s just a reduced nerf.
