If you can't get around a fucking stationary turret thats slow as molasses when he moves,
in a fucking arena shooter,
who's poster slut is a fast as fuck Australian Flash,
that also includes a hero who LITERALLY has a "Press 'E' to kill Bastion" button,

then you shouldn't be playing video games scrubby.


The real problem is Mc-reeeeeeeeee. Blizz pls nerf him

I don't see what's the problem with Bastion.

Is he within medium range? Hook him with Roadhog.

Is he far away? Use a sniper character.

Is he far away and aiming at a chokepoint you have to go through to reach him? Use Reinhardt.

That's literally it.

I'd like to mention again that Blizzard has been watching the budding competitive scene very closely and noticed that nobody plays Bastion at that level. While pub players are crying about bastion being broken, Blizzard is talking about how to make him actually viable if you're any good.

He's the pyro of this game. A wall to bad players, mediocre to good ones.

The real problem is that the game is counterpick heavy people don't change heroes as often.

Why haven't Genji fags realized that he isn't a hard counter to Bastion at all?

Bastion sees Genji and baits out the parry, taking a tiny bit of damage at best, then continues unloading on him.

A smart Bastion is just going to win that confrontation, lol.
>>
>>337178013

Pretty much- I don't see them outright nerfing him, I do see them changing him in a way that makes him weaker at the n00b level but better at the pro level. Or just buffing him in a way that doesn't make him any worse at the n00b level and continuing to tell the whiners to git gud and l2hard counter.
>>

>Inb4 get some friends :^)

No delay, turn speed is exactly the same as any other player. There's a blue light that pops up on his butt when he's in sentry mode, that's his crit spot.

>>337178731
Genji's dash locks your mouse-look for like half a second, you can't turn around fast enough to hit the shurikens because the game legit won't let you. Meanwhile bastion can instantly 180 and start shooting by the time you're able to turn and start firing.
But really you shouldn't be 1v1'ing anyone, regardless of counters.
>>337177985
You have a team, use them.

It's the same shit with Techies. Somebody has to go out of their way to counter it, and the game changes.

>>337179516
you don't have to use him in a braindead way. You can use him to sort of hit and run. Set up sentry in one spot and do some work then quickly move to a new spot. Most bastion players are easy to counter because they just sit on one spot and hold left click, if you know where a bastion is you can take him out no problem

How do you make it to a bastion with a torbjorn sat up slightly further than a backline bastion
Don't get me wron, there's bad bastions, but the biggest mistake they make is setting up frontline

>>337178013
Bastion needs some serious love there are far too many hero's that sraight up shit on him from rocket/nade spam to just boosting into his face as D.VA he was more cancerous in his previous iteration with the shield but playing literally as a turrent isn't too engaging to play as or against but at the very least he's not quite a shit as the goddamn dwarf and those paper mache turrets

and you're full of shit.

Even if you group with skillful friends and are coordinated enough to beat ultimately win rounds against Bastion players all the time, you're still going to die embarrassingly to them a lot because they can hide anywhere in siege mode completely silently and then kill you in half a second.

Bastion counters anyone that isn't his hard counter.
The fact that he has hard counters is the only reason people can attempt to claim he's balanced, but that's not how balance should work.

There isn't any other single character that forces someone to switch off their pick to deal with it.
Adaptation and character switches should be required to get around a team's strategy, not to get around a single player's character selection.

If someone on the opposing team selects Bastion, everyone else that is not his counter is fucked until someone switches to one of them, at which point Bastion becomes terrible.

That's not balance, that's shit design.

Bastion is like rock in rock-paper-scisors, if rock beat everything except fist-up-your-own-ass which ties with everything else.

Only map I ever find Bastion to be a problem on is during the first phase of Hollywood. Couple games have happened where he sits in that little room on the other side of the big ass door and a Mercy will babysit him. Even as a Hanzo it was nigh impossible to kill him with the reflection arrows because of Mercy, and it was legit impossible to get vision for direct arrow hits because of the rest of the team all around the point.

Other than that, though, Bastion is piss easy to deal with if you're not a moron. Only hero I think one could get away with saying they're legitimately overpowered is Mei, fuck everything about that fat piece of Chinese shit.

its not just tracer. Any hero with ~200hp cant do shit about it(mcshit, any support, genji, s76, junkrat, pharah, reaper, hanzo/widow(unlikely but still)). The range by itself is fucking broken to the point where you can't avoid getting hooked by a non-braindead roadhog unless you are across a corridor of the map
>>
>>337183340
I don't get how Bastion and Mei are on the same level. Mei essentially has touch-of-death with freeze gun, unless you have some kind of movement option to escape it. The slow effect is the only thing about her that bothers me.

Well a good Reinhardt will always demand a Bastion to defend a hill. they'll camp on a corner like a couple of COD douchebags doing sentry+shield combo every match killing everyone.

I now realize why TF2 has the Spy. There was no getting to them because they could see EVERYBODY coming at them, and shut it the fuck down with Widow/Bastion/Mercy's damage amp. Stealth hero when?

Bastion needs some spread/falloff damage and Widow's bodyshots hurt way too fucking much.

The problem isn't Bastion himself. It's when you have a narrow choke point you have to funnel through and you have an entire team supporting that Bastion.

Then pressing E does jack shit. It only effects the maps where there's attack and defend and all those maps are pretty much cancer anyways.

How the fuck do you justify his turret being so goddamn fragile as well? I mean if you aren't meant to be able to healtank it like the Engineer can, then why does it still have such a pathetic lifespan? If it's meant to be like a Gunslinger Mini-Turret, then why not give it a faster building time?

I don't understand what they're trying to do with this guy, but it's upsetting because I was expecting Engineer, and got Not-At-All-Like-Engineer, his turret feels like it's nothing.

Nah he needs a nerf. I main Bastion and I wreck people's shit easily. He does a fuckton of damage, has ridiculous range, and a ton of ammo between reloads.

Not nevesarilly. A genji and widowmaker pick are more than just for a single bastion, though that can be considered if that single hero is that much of a problem. Really, while draft is definitely important, execution is even more important in a game like this.

Would this fix Bastion if you could, rather than killing him, simply knock him out of killing mode with a single attack, forcing him to either sit through setting up again or fight with his well balanced assault rifle?

I know Roadhog can hook him out of it, so it makes sense that other abilities should be able to force him out of it as well, and most of these are fairly easy to hit him with even with a Reinhardt guarding him.
>>
>>337185979
You should be attacking any and all squishy characters from behind and the sides and be a general nuisance, that's his strong suit. Leap over an advancing group on top of their support in the rear while holding the fire button then drop a shield so the others can't hit you as you rape their Zenyatta/Mercy. You should be leaping a lot in all honesty. And pop your Ult if it's up and you are gonna die, you can knock em around for a while and waste their time as they focus on you before leaping away.

I've never seen a D.Va that I didn't destroy, and I played for about 40 hours during the beta, and nearly every game had a D.Va. So I'm to believe every single one of the hundreds of D.Vas I destroyed were all bad? Nah, she's just shit.

Even then people that are considered his hard-counters aren't really if you think about it. For example, Genji is widely mentioned as a counter but all Bastion has to do is let go of LMB for 2 seconds and blow him up after.


The fact that Bastion defenders even in this very thread try to qualify his counters in a vacuum where the Bastion is literally just holding LMB shows how much depth the character has even to the apologists.

No, Winston is shit too, As Roadhog he has never given me problems, just hook and point blank 2 shot his fat ass. He did get me a few times as a squishy but overall Winston is the second shittiest tank.

This is one of the reasons why I'm a bit disappointed there's no hero with an invisibility ability.

The closet thing is Reaper's teleportation move, and to a lesser extent Wraith Form.

Getting camped by ReinBastionerdts like that makes for a good argument for more abilities like that.

You're the 1 person who went against 2 people saying D. Va isn't shit for no apparent reason. That is, you went against what was (currently) the majority, just for the sake of doing it. You can say whatever you want about how "I haven't met a single good D. Va, I kill her 10 times in every match!" or whatever, but that doesn't mean anything.

As I've already explained, no.
I can make the same claim about any other character, but that doesn't make that claim true.
I'm a long time fighting game player, so I'm used to people complaining about what is and what isn't OP. Every single time, the discussion ends with nobody giving an inch on their original position, and everybody having wasted their time. I'm tired of that shit, I don't want to deal with it in every single fucking game I play. It's annoying when talking about fighting games, it's annoying when talking about Soulsborne games, and it's annoying when talking about FPS games.
If you've been on 4chan for any length of time, I'm sure you know this already, so why're you starting a discussion you know is completely pointless? Are you just wasting time?
I mean, that's what I'm doing, so I wouldn't blame you, but come on man, there're better ways to waste time than this.

As long as they're not sitting on top of the payload it's easy to push past them. Especially if you have a Mei or D.va. You don't even need to kill them, just negate them.

Anon, when the team doesn't have a balanced comp, your team doesn't need a balanced comp either. Switch to Winston and get a teammate to do the same, and double up on that group. Shield from Widow while you rape Mercy with that gorilla dick. They'll all be dead in a second.
>>
>>337179618
tfw i got it in one of my first few loot chests and will have to unlock it again at launch

>>337192885
Well, Reaper is actually pretty good for that if you use him right. He could have teleported out of spawn to someplace out of sight and jump one of the Bastions, maybe even kill him and the Mercy before Widow or the other Bastion killed him.

Phara would be another okay one, try and land her knock back rocket ability behind Reinhardt's shield, that should disrupt them enough to hopefully land a killing blow on Bastion.

As you described, Symmetra's tactic would work as well. If they are moving, they aren't laying down Sentry Gun murder on you, so if you could coordinate, your team could push out and focus fire on them.

D.Va's shield is directional, so if they are split up she would get shredded from the side, but if they are near each other or not covering each other, you could at least distract them.
Roadhog can pull Bastion right out of Sentry and has a decent 600 health pool so he won't melt as instantly as others.

Most other tactics would require some damn good teamwork though, like a stack of 2 or 3 Reinhardts cycling their shields or a pair of D.Vas synchronized rocket boosting at the Bastions with their defense matrices up.

I'm sure there are some other great ideas, I just can't think of them.

>>337193876

What are they going to swarm the payload with? They got 4 members of their team baby sitting Bastion.

Between d.va and the rest of your team you can have plenty of zoning ults that prevent them from doing a thing. Zarya, Hanzo and Mei all have ults that force them to move or pull them out of a defensive posture. It's not a hard tactic to beat, except by disorganized pubs where people don't understand to push the damn cart.

>What are they going to swarm the payload with? They got 4 members of their team baby sitting Bastion.
Assuming your opponents are bad is a terrible way to make strategies for any game, just so you know. Here's my counter argument, what if they aren't? What if they aren't shit?
>>
>>337191107
What if the bastion player changes position every time you die. So you never know where he is until after he kills you in less than a second?
>>
Bastion, Roadhog, Soldier 76, Genji and McCree are all anti-fun burden of knowledge toxic characters who need to be changed desperately. I don't understand why Blizzard allows them to ruin the game while they refuse to buff underpowered champs like Tracer, Hanzo, Widowmaker and Lucio.
>>
>>337194331

If they aren't complete shit, then you can assume that your teammates aren't shit either. They pull off to defend payload, then your teammates have opportunities for flanking bastion, picking them off from other angles etc. Either way, the key is pushing the objective aggressively and not trying to kill them when they are entrenched.

This is something that worked for me in a pub where I pretty much solo pushed the cart the whole way.

In an organized environment, you don't see Bastions at all. Word on the street is that people just use Mei's ice wall to cockblock him but I haven't paid a lick of attention to competitive overwatch.
