Getting better only makes the problem WORSE because snipers are high skill cap.

Only idiots playing against shitty pubs will think widowmaker is anything close to fine. She can team wipe with ease because exposing yourself for 1 second means widowmaker gets two bodyshots and kills you.

If you are taking the position that a blizzard game is balanced, you just went full retard.

one body shot in TF2 is a kill and no one complains about sniper

Snipers are the worst cancer to ever come into fps games.

I don't understand why every single shooter needs to cater to the autistics that have no desire to play the same game as everyone else.

I had more issues going against multiple bastions and d.vas than multiple widow makers

in like 90% of shooters snipers are a one hit kill on the body, not even just the head. the drawback is that you actually have to hit the first time or you're pretty much fucked. in this you have to hit twice.

She shoots you one in the head, you die.

But let's say she didn't get a headshot.

She shoots you once in the body.

You now have 1 second to hide before she kills you with a second body shot, because she can fire that quickly.

She is incredibly broken.

>>336407248

Tracer has to make it through the enemy team to reach her AND reach her again after the grapple puts her with allies AND not get seen because I think widowmaker can freaking one shot her she's so broken.
>>
>>336407563
So it's like the TF2 sniper if he was always fully charged?
>>
>>336407563
Nah, it's pretty easy to flush her out with tracer. Being seen doesn't really matter unless you're obviously making a straight line for her. Just get a few side kills on the way.

Or just team up and storm the point, so you move the battlefield forward.

>>
>>336408768

Bastion: A low moblity turret vs a high mobility sniper. Bastion loses at all relevant ranges. Widow is a hard counter.

Macree: Widow has zoom, mccree doesn't. Two quick body shots. Not close, widow wins.

Reaper: LOL

Roadhog: What? How does road hog ever even hit widowmaker? Serious question here. Are you saying that she gets hit by a max range hook like a retard?

Pharah: Widow counters the fuck out of pharah unless you are terrible at the game and can't hit her while she flies.

I'm guessing you suck donkey at FPS games, can't hit anything smaller than a point blank road hog with widow, and assume she sucks for that reason.

Despite Sniper in TF2 having an understandable role, I legitimately think that Widowmaker is just there to be for sniperbait people that needs to have a sniper of some sort. She has no counter that isn't a mirror if you're in a good spot and your team isn't braindead, she can instant kill everyone in the game except for tanks, and even has huge mobility, a good damage Assault Rilfe, AND a poison gas mine which immediately gets rid of one of sniper's generally huge weaknesses: people getting close to them.

If she wasn't in the game, the game would probably have a more established strategy and counterplaying, but right now it just seems to devolve into one team picking Widowmaker, and if they're any good then the other team is screwed unless they get a better one.

Use sheild bubble to close a bit of distance to widow, then jump on her and put your monkey balls on her face.99% of widows panic at this point and waste their grapple, your shift should be off CD way more than fast enough to close the gap again if she did make a miracle grapple. If you can't close the gap to a widow as winston, you don't now what you're doing when you jump.

I'm kind of pissed off after hearing about the closed betas for the past fucking six months or so now, I was really hoping this game would at least be KIND OF fun. Fuck you Blizzard, fuck you streamers for pretending this game was fun to play.

Only way two shots kill you is if you cant into strafe and jump and not run in a straight line which is what you probably do.

Who is Reinhart's counter?
>>
>>336412750
Everything about Junkrat is infuriating.

The tire, the bear traps into easy grenade bodyshots, the grenades he drops on death, unlimited ammo lets him spam nades non-stop all damn day.
>>
>>336412846
Pharah does enough damage that his shield gets eaten quickly.
>>
>>336412846
I honestly don't know, It's apparently supposed to be Symettra but her charge shot does jack shit to the shield and Reinhart, either that or Bastion because he can fuck the nigga's shield up.

Other than that it just seems like GG if they have a Reinhart and you don't unless you spam ultimates at him.

tracer in general, especially her sticky bomb
junkrat works if you just break his shield with bombs
mccree can stop his shield if you launch the stun grenade over his shield
use the reflection shots from hanzo's e
pretty sure roadhog can hook him
>>
>>336412891
You can kill his tire quickly now since it was nerfed months back. You can hear the fucking thing coming a mile away. Also stay on high ground to make him useless.

Pharah, Widow, and Genji counter Bastion so hard it's disgusting.

She's really annoying but like anyone who isn't a tank she dies in like 2 seconds of direct fire if more than one hero fires at her.

This game is just another shit team simulator like real MOBAs. I've played a tonne and almost no games got close, but the odd tight game was satisfying.

However most game you either steamroll or you don't. Widowmaker is okay but she's shut down hard by a committed Tracer or Reaper. It's a rock paper scissor game.

This is what blizzard fanboys actually believe.

The best part is you clearly don't know jack shit about arranged competition between top players because it is legitimate pros talking about how broken widow is.
>>
>>336410189
Like Reinhart's shield.
>>
Bastion seems completely broken as long as he and his team has even a small amount of intelligence.
>>
>>336415803
Pharah rocketing from the sky, or a couple snipes can counter him.
>>
>>336415953
Yeah, that's where the team intelligence comes in. They kill pharah or widow, and he demolishes everyone else. Alternately, 2 bastions set up to cross fire works pretty much just as well.
>>
>>336415953
peoples unwillingness to look up isn't a counter. If the bastion sees her for even a second she is cheese
>>
>>336415803

With little intelligence you would realize more than half the characters in the game are hard counters to him. Genji has a single button that makes him useless for one of the many examples why he will always be bottom tier.
>>
>>336415803

I wish this meme would end. Bastion, Torbjorn & Zenyatta are the worst characters in the game currently. Atleast Zenyatta use to be broken at some point, Torb & Bastion were always bad. Just because pub players are horrible doesn't make them good.
>>
>>336410169
This is literally the only reason I don't play Zenyatta. I love his playstyle, and his character. However, even having 25 more base health would be amazing.

I was playing against one as Tracer. I knew where she was so i was sure to dash as soon as I hit the corner to avoid her shot. But she still got me. On the kill cam it showed me walk around the corner without my dash even going off.
>>
>>336417127

The game is shit competitively because of all the moba inspiration.

The people who currently play the game competitively already know it's not going to be a popular esport, but they still play at the higest level.

They know widow is extremely broken.

If you don't think widow is broken AND have actually played this game, then it's because you aren't good enough to be matched up with the good ones.

I'm aware of that, I'm having issues with landing headshots consistently. I've noticed that if fights last for too long I usually end up losing them, especially since Mccree's health is only 200, so going for headshots is what makes the character good for me, as it cleans fast but has mobility issues, plus only one useful ability. Compare him to any other attack character and he feels really barebones.

The problem isn't classes being OP, the problem is Blizzard taking a game they want to be competitive and giving it the standard Blizzard 6 month beta. People are entering this beta playing against people who have mastered every class thanks to 6 fucking months of playing it.

The game isn't even out and there's already a gigantic experience based skill gap, so one of those 6 month players makes a class seem OP as fuck.
>>
I think everyone is bullshit in their own way.

Except for Symmetra she is useless.
>>
>>336420237
I think Mei needs a little toning down with her icicle spam allowing her to basically act like a Hanzo with headshots.

I have no issue with Widowmaker or Bastion really.

Symmetra needs a big buff I think. She's useless to have past the first point and her usefulness is based solely around the teleporter. The shields are barely noticeable honestly and I think where the buffs should be aimed at to have her be useful on the second point and basically sacrificing a support slot for.

Other than that each character seems fine. Maybe a small buff to Zenyatta health pool.
>>
>>336421001
What about D-Va? I feel she is pretty useless save for self destruct, and then thats it.

I guess she is just a tank so it makes sense maybe.
>>
>>336418116

The picture in the OP is from the day they announced the game. So the only way you could've seen a model before that is if you're a Blizzard employee.
