I don't even like Pharah that much

what is this
>>
Soldier has his shotgun to fall back on and finish people off. Pharah has to kill with the rockets or else.
>>
>>339632342
same lets break down why pharah is ass

both have 200 hp but Sol can get 220 with bb
there's also overheal in TF the has "armor" and "shield" which are kinda a replacement but let's be honest Pharah is mainly for attack and you're not getting a Torb or Symetra on attack so there goes your hp bonus

while Pharah's rockets do 120 which is more that sols 112 with Direct hit the sols DH doesn't actually require a direct hit to deal a good chunk of it's avg damage Pharahs does

Sol has better escape options because of boots or escape plan speed Pharahs jets have a fucking 10sec CD while someone like winston has a 6

you fall slower in OW than in TF2

Sol has a shotgun option in a pinch (long rocket reload or scout etc. ) Pharah has a fucking 8 sec "knockback" weapon that does NO damage at all (it's good on maps like Ilios and Nepal though )

fuck this character I lover her so much but after the conversion it's clear Sol is better than her in EVERY way possible

I doubt Blizz will buff her but if they do maybe they need to see why Soldier is such a staple in TF2 and ALWAYS a good pick
>>
>>339632342
>OP assuming the power armor is for frontline duty and not for flight and harassing the shit out of the enemy
>>
>>339635360
how are you harassing shit when the rockets are easy as hell to dodge from a distance and have an pitiful amount of splash?

flying with Pharah is a death sentence if the enemy team has hitscan on there team which is MAJORITY of the OW cast.

She flat out sucks at how Blizzard wanted people to play her AND she sucks in how you're supposed to play her by meta standards

>>339633828
Get behind them. Shoot a few times. Dash out of the way, rewind if you get hit.

thats because your supposed to sneak up on them. I am a beast at Pharah because i am squirely piece of shit that doesnt like staying in one place. I fly all over the place and rain justice from above with my mother fucking missles and i sneak up on enemy counters and put rockets in there asses.

>>339637463
If you're not in a suit of armor or aren't a tank then she can just freeze then 1 shot with her ice shard, and that's IF the rest of her team doesn't immediately destroy you. She has too much going for her, just like 76, who has unlimited shift, a powerful weapon with plentiful ammo, autoaim ult, and can basically undo any damage done to himself within 2 seconds by pressing E.
>>
>>339637264
Only shitters like you complain about Mei. She's slow and her freeze ray is easy as shit to avoid, and like you said her wall fucks her own team more often than not. I can't even count the time a shithead Mei put an icewall in front of the Mercy I was trying to kill-

Soldier is just a class with a low skill floor (does not imply low skill ceiling), like heavy. Most shitters can pick up soldier and have good impact on it while they can't handle anything else except maybe stickies on dustbowl.
>>
>>339637694
I would accept those, but I still think her ult has been completely ruined since the beta. I've dropped it in very crowded areas and everyone just barely hides and survives.

Reinhardt shield, Winston bubble, and Zarya barrier block it. Zarya barrier can even be used on frozen allies and it unfreezes them.

>Only shitters complain about her
>agrees with complaints about her
Like I said she's easy to avoid if you're D.Va, Tracer, Genji, or someone else mobile but otherwise you're fucked because her stream slows you enough to keep you from outrunning her.
>>
>>339637969
A jack of all trades shouldn't be better in every situation though, he should be efficient enough to get by. He should be as useful as D.Va is at range, yet he's practically close range reaper at all ranges.

>>339638062
I didn't know Reinhardt's did that, but the other two are so situational that most of the time they won't actually end up saving you.
>>
>>339638308
Zarya's is up regularly. She's a really good tank, I don't understand why I see more Winstons and Dvas than her

I think it's fine as is, other than maybe a radius close to the mech where you can't avoid damage by hiding behind a wall.

It does extremely well to clear an area, because even if everybody flees, nobody on the enemy team will be near her mech or survive next to it unless they hide behind a wall close to it. Her ULT is perfect for breaking up overtime matches, and usually determines who twins.

It also causes instant panic, and is a great distraction. If your team is competent enough, they can pressure people fleeing from her mech.

With what character are you having this issue with? Chances are there's nothing you can do if you're not prepared for them, but try and expect someone to pop out of a corner at any time and aim for where their head would be. Also, try not to walk alone.
>>
>>339637718
so what if you get frozen
it takes like 2 seconds, in that time and range most classes with real weapons can easily do 300 damage or more (at least enough to destroy any non-tank class), with much better performance outside of that range

the spray is just easier to aim than most weapons

Her long range abilities are better than the vast majority of classes. Her DPS might be lower, but her slow lets her kite/pursue as appropriate and land her shots. If she had even close to the damage output of other classes she'd be broken as fuck. As it is she can easily win nearly any 1v1 engagement unless its mccree who is getting nerfed.

That's because his ult is retarded. Its explosion animation shows a blast about the size of a grenade, but it's range is ACTUALLY the size of an entire capture area. SURPRISE! And no damage falloff! If you don't shoot it or hide, you lose! It's basically D Va's, but impossible to miss with.

>Her long range abilities are better than the vast majority of classes.
The icicle drops down to something like 40 dps at long range, and it's not even a particularily impressive weapon at mid-range. The spray is not even mid-range, it's not applicable in a discussion of long-range power. She's worse at long range than all the other defense characters, worse than mccree(although she has much better survivability there, of course), genji, pharah, zenyatta are also better at long range. I don't even really know what her purpose is as a class except big ice wall plays.

That's sort of it: it's a LOT less flexible than proper rocket jumps because it caters to retards.

Rocket jumping on a cooldown is shit, you can't jump in and then out easily.
Rocket jumping with a set vertical distance is also shit, you can't way overshoot that small ledge you want to get onto, exposing your location + head to snipers way more than it should be.

I get that they wanted to make it more accessible, but it also makes it TERRIBLE at the same time.

Zenyatta is decent at range. She's better than Reaper, Tracer, Genji (faster projectiles), Junkrat, Tor (minus turret), D.va, Reinhardt, Roadhog, Winston, Zarya, Lucio, and Mercy. That is two thirds of the cast.
>>
>>339644431
I'm just a bitter soldier main, she feels really terrible to play.

Just floating in the air to dodge isn't a strategy, unless you have a mercy glued to your ass.

She's definitely not better than Junkrat (he can lock down an area at range), and is equivalent to Mercy and Lucio (both who can just spam at an area).

Of course they weren't. Even if they were you need 3 headshots to kill most characters at range.

The difference though is that if 2 or 3 people approach McCree he can stun and kill all of them because his damage output is retarded
