Who has been the worst addition to the game?

Ever since 2 released we got a good handful of characters but which one do you think is the worst? By worst I mean everything YOU don’t enjoy, the kit, lore, personality and generally everything about them. This character could probably be removed and nobody (or little) would care.

I think the worst addition is probably Soujourn or venture, Soujourn is just S76 on crack so I dont really find that fun and it was obvious she was gonna get some more character in the story mode but we know what happened to that so she’s just really bland. Soujourn as a character is just boring, the design is like looking at a white wall with a bunch of paint buckets, you just kind of question why they bought paint but didn’t bother to use it.

Venture is just kind of there? Extremely irritating personality and the kit is just DPS doomfist but weaker. Probably my least favorite character in the game from a “character” point because venture is most likely not gonna do anything relating to lore, The comic we got explained pretty much nothing and it feels like they put Venture next to Anubis as some kind of participation award to make them feel important.

Venture. No contest. Ugly design, annoying personality. Mediocre gameplay, unfun to play against.

Mauga. Just a boring hero whose playstyle is just focus the enemy tank. He is boring to play, boring to play with because you just hard pocket him and he is boring to play against.

Passives. Especially tank ones

Kiriko. She’s obviously not the most precious.

Easily Mauga.

I don’t particularly like Venture as he can be OP too often.

Illari pylon is just stupid letting her go off and do more dps at mid-range than heroes like cassidy.

Ram has way too much damage mitigation - I mean, 90% and for along duration so he can even survive a full whole-hog to the face. Duh!!

I guess I’ve not really liked about half the new heroes in some way or another.

Mauga for obvious reasons.
Illari because I wish we’d got an actual support for support players in her stead. I find her point-and-click adventure stale and she is either useless or OP as hell depending on the map because of pylon

Brig was, but is no longer

Kiriko is a stupid bandaid fix like Brig was, so Kiriko

OW2 = Venture
OW1 = Ana (gonna get flak for this hot take)
OG OW Cast = Tracer

Ramattra doesn’t have 90% damage mitigation.

Ana is pretty awful. The deception she plays about requiring skill has fooled people for years.

You only need a modicum of skill to pickup the character, getting good is the easy part.

Illari and Venture don’t really fit in with any of the lore do they? I don’t mind how they play but I’m interested how they’re involved in the OW universe. Feels like they’re just - there.

Kiri - I know she’s in the Shimada family, but again, she’s just there. An after-thought to an already cool dynamic between Hanzo and Genji. Factor in her voice lines / general attitude / introduction of “magic”: yea Kiri takes it for me

venture hate is so forced

Kiriko.

Bloated kit and was designed entirely to counter a single support hero.

In doing so they made a hero who can duel so well and has such good utility that she is almost a must pick every season.

Mauga. His kit makes him an absolute waste of a cool character.

If they rework his kit into something more interesting I would be infinitely grateful.

did you even read the post? I didn’t say hate at all. Whats forced is how many of you people say that crap lol. Anyone can write a paragraph to why they don’t like venture and you just get a bot response like yours

Design/character wise, Venture. Dustborn-tier design.

Gameplay wise? Day 1 Brig. Nothing will ever beat that.

Junkerqueen is just a Hog rip off, but stronger. I have always despised her for that despite the fact that she is kind of cool.
