Pharah shouldn’t be the only one to dominate the air, and I’d love for there to eventually be another flight-capable hero (besides Pharah and Mercy).
Personally, I’d love it if Blizzard took a few notes from the Transformers series and gave us a VTOL-capable Omnic who looks like one of the Decepticons. That’d be fun.
Here’s my own iteration of what said flying Omnic could be.
Obviously it isn’t otherwise we’d be talking about Skyrim right now. Regardless, I think Red Dead 2 might not be such a great game as everyone wants it to be. Hype can kill games pretty hard, but thankfully some people are starting to notice this.
Here’s the problem with adding another “Air hero”.
That hero would have to be essentially balanced to tie Pharah, and wouldn’t be allowed a hitscan weapon, for the sole reason that if they can fly and have hitscan, Pharah loses to that character 10/10 times.
Another hero dominating the air essentially completely removes Pharah from the game.
Or even just air-to-ground AoE, for some soft CC, in high volume areas?
I don’t think we’d want another aerial hero as powerful, or moreso, than Pharah currently is. Imagine dealing with Pharah and her better half with no (or bad) hitscans.
Who said this new flying hero must do dmg? Another tank like dva that could fly for a few secs would be pretty kool. Or another healer with flying capabilities.
I think another flying hero is exactly what the game needs right now. But i feel like it would have to be a tank/support (big target, without too much crazy damage) maybe something that drops bombs that either heal or damage in a similar fashion to Anas grenade.
Id want pharah to be able to counter whatever it would be though. She shouldnt outright get replaced.
Hey now, Im a console scrub and Sombra is my best friend for dealing with pharah. I literally translocate up to her face and either hack her or kill her.
