Why Shadow Step doesnt work like Meteor Strike?

I mean… just the mobility mechanics, with the simple difference being that he doesnt deal damage when he lands.

Would be less clunky than the current mechanic, right ?

Right ?

Meteor Strike is one of the buggiest abilities in the game

Yeah but as I said, it wouldnt be as a damage dealing ability, just a mobility one.

I think it would be quite an improvement over the current Shadow Step.

I agree. Any improvements to the move would also benefit doomfist as well, two birds one stone.

I think it would be cool if reaper could shadow step on those high places that pro dooms usually go on, and drop down on people

I disagree with that. They should just increase the cast time, among a few other changes.

Here’s a Reaper rework that I came up with. Let me know what you think.

Unless Reaper disappears when activating the ability, like Doomfist when using MS, the ability will still be bad. Even with some more movement options on where to go. The biggest problem is that the ability can only be used outside of battle and makes Reaper a sitting duck when casting it on both ends. Not to mention him screaming his position from the top of his lungs and the big red indicator the ability has.
