Why does DVA Defense Matrix have such a quick CD?

Because her head is as big as a freaking beach ball.

hahahah stop balancing the game around winrates and pickrates lol…

you should to understand that i dont have problems outplaying dva players on heros like zarya but i dont want play a game where evertything is counterpicking.

If you have played classic you would know why.

Oh I know, I never said they’re not strong, I only said DM is her primary form of mitigation

Because Zarya, Hog, Mei and Sym exist. Why not complain about shields? They:
– Counter way more stuff than DM
– Have exclusivity on countering some stuff like shatter (yeah, Mei wall but good luck pulling that off … let’s see if new hero will provide for it)
– Do not have a “rock-paper-scissor” style counters unlike DM (you just have to … shoot it and overcome it)
– Actually block stuff that goes through DM (hello the beams of happiness and the hook of justice)
– Have the same small CD
– Will block that uber-duper 9000 damage even if only 1HP of shield remains

But … shields are fine? Sure, okay, you could probably claim “I can break it and it needs to recharge” = but that only works if that Rein just lets you shoot the shield and his team isn’t doing anything useful. Those mistakes fall off after silver I would guess. And yet again = even 1 HP shield still shows that middle finger to that huge damage you had.

So stop using actual data to balance the game? What should we balance on then, how Zorek104 feels about it?

Can we balance around quick play for a moment? I don’t have a reason but if Zorek104 is a valid option then I want to see the insanity of a quick play balance patch

We could consult the magic 8 ball. Let’s do that.

Oh look!

Yay! It’s happening!
