>>342624687
>Reaper has no hard counter as of right now
Literally the worst offensive hero.
Fight me.
>>342624687
>Being Zenyatta is suffering
Heh
>>342626146
He's the best offensive hero for killing tanks.
McCREEE was his hard counter, but now it's barely the case.
>>342626436
I agree with the tank part. (Especially Reinhardt)
However, I main Winston as a tank, therefore his effectiveness is piss in the wind tier.
>>342626632
twinston is pretty effective still
>>342626632
I'll also add an IMO and say pub shitters can't seem to hear "Death Comes" so I'm stuck shooting him with my pistolly Mercy shootie tootie
>>342624687
Hey, asswipe. We called SHITFAGGOTS now.
>>342624687
Pharah beats Reaper ez
>>342626939
It's still not a hard counter, he can still hide in a building. Though, in a map with no building that is true.
>>342626849
His ult is pretty crappy nowadays since Pigboy genius is played more often after McCree's nerf.
>>342627085
If you want a character with no hard counter, you don't need to go any further than soldier 76.
>>342627116
Started noticing that too, though they always end up giving up enemy or ally.
pic related for hedgehog players
>>342624687
what are you talking about? in a 1v1 fight scenario you want people to live longer than 5 seconds?
the time to kill is already really long, especially when you add healers to the equation.
also if everything is "OP" then nothing is "OP"
>>342624687
>Symmetra's poo gun again
top jej i hate that brain dead tech support cunt
>>342627442
At least he requires a bit of skill to git gud with. You can't spam his right click (which surprises me in this game).
Reaper has 2 shotguns @ close range that require almost no aiming.
>>342624687
It took about 6 years to balance Street Fighter 4, and even then it wasn't even close to perfect.
Brood War was patched for even longer.
Even TF2, they never got everything right. There's always some sort of meta to things.
These things take time. Whether you like a game or not, balance isn't something that happens quickly, and it is never, ever perfect.
>Pharah has an unlimited ammo high damage Rocket Launcher that makes you bounce the entire map if it hits
You need to be good at aiming somewhat to do ANYTHING with Pharah. She requires nothing but your aim, she has no utility skills like the other Hero's have. If you have shit aim you can't even be a decent Pharah. Direct hits don't even knock you back, and her splash damage is pitiful.
>>342627985
>implying I said everything is op
I made specific points for a reason.
Some things like Rocket Lawnchairs and Grenade Lawnchairs are balanced around having a limited amount of ammo in other games, but in this game it's not.
Also, the amount of stuff I probably haven't covered is probably enormous, so really, this is a short list.
>>342628317
Fair points, but I still think my >>342628317 is true. What's aiming if you have infinite spammable rockets.
>>342628478
woops I meant >>342628346
>>342625325
GUD
>>342628478
But everyone else also has unlimited ammo, and most have quicker reloads/ more ammo per clip. If she is so OP, why doesn't everyone play her?
>>342624687
Things that piss me off in OW as of right now.
Roadhog's hook is the most overpowered piece of shit in the game, it allows you to isolate a target and essentially take them out the game for a whole respawn.
Tracer and Zarya are both extremely underplayed characters whose potential is extremely OP. Zarya and Tracer both can rape assholes if played by even the slightest competent player.
D.Va is just fucking awful.
Reaper is more of a defensive character than anything as his ult can stop a team push better than create a spot for his team.
Reinhardt's hammer has some insane ass phantom range.
Thats all really.
>>342628478
You can't spam as Pharah and be effective, the damage on her splash for her rockets is downright awful. You'd basically have to hit directly next to someone to get maximum damage on her splash, other than that the damage decreases very rapidly the further it is away.
Junkrat is another story. He can angle his shots over cover, bounce off walls, and his pills do 80 flat splash damage where as Pharah's do 13 - 80.
>people actually fucking complaining about reaper
The only balance changes we need are Zenyatta needs a HP buff and D.Va needs a very small buff.
That is it.
>>342628624
I've seen a lot of double Pharah lately, though. I might be biased because I'm perma-stuck as healer, but no one kills the bitch, ever.
I'm finding more and more I can't kill jack shit with Mccrees fan combo. Unless they have 200 hp or less exactly and you stun them while you're literally right next to them, it feels like they always live and escape. Goddamn his right click feels useless now. It's better to just line up a headshot, except most of the time you can't do that unless you perfectly sneak up on them.
>>342628758
Well, my only complaint is that they "removed" his main counter without adjustments.
>>342628763
>no one kills the bitch
This I'll agree with; no one even seems to notice her until you point her out. But just 76 can easily shoot her down if she's playing aggressively. I actually enjoy playing Hog and hooking them
>>342628696
As a Lucio player the phantom range makes me want to be a hero.
it's like it creates black holes that suck me into him or some shit
Lucio is the only overpowered character in the game right now. If you think otherwise you're a shitter
>>342629096
His only source of offense being some of the worst in the game balances his usefulness IMO. Least Mercy has a decent pistol.
>>342628867
Do you not stun, fan, roll, fan?
>>342628758
Zeny is fine
>>342629096
>Lucio
>Overpowered
he's one of the few characters that requires gitting gud to master. I don't get how he's OP
>>342629227
Like I said, most heroes can escape. I can hardly even get all my shots off on a mercy before she flies away.
>>342629292
Giving him 10 more HP would not break the game.
WILL I GET BANNED FOR ABUSING GLITCHES ON PS4
SOMEONE ANSWER ME GODDAMN IT
>>342628867
I'm pretty good at mccree, and after the nerf I just went to 76, since he's way more effective than mccree is now since I can aim and 76 does actual damage
>>342629227
Not him, but his point is that the normal combo is supposed to be Flash the Hammer without the roll
>>342629210
His offense is excellent in KOTH
>>342629294
His speed and heal auras make more impact than anything in the game. There's literally no reason to not ever pick him in any team
>>342629431
>buying an fps for console
>from a primarily pc game dev
nobody can answer your question because you're the only one who's that fucking stupid
>>342629431
Probably?
>>342629335
I don't know, I've been killed by good McCrees surprising me in my non tank heroes.
>>342629456
Well if you don't want to do the extended combo hit all your shots?
>>342629515
considering current comp games are more about who gets the better mercy rez i would say she has bigger impact on the game.
but yea lucio is pretty strong, but so is mercy, they just need to add more supports on their powerlevel.
>Pharah has an unlimited ammo high damage Rocket Launcher that makes you bounce the entire map if it hits
>Reaper has no hard counter as of right now
I know this is bait because you put these right next to each other.
they need to introduce a 175 HP tier and put Zen and Widow in it, at least
Why is Sym under support and not defense?
>>342629828
for the same reason that soldier76 is under offense and not support.
>>342628696
They should get rid of the hook combo, add a second in between hook release and firing. Hes got insane damage already, the hook is a buggy instakill. A little counterplay would be fine
Restore McCree's Fan damage, remove reload on roll but add i-frames.
Remove D.Va's critbox while in mech, or move it to the back, remove or reduce speed penalty when firing.
Everyone else is fine.
>>342624687
>reaper has no counter
>>342629647
actual organized games are entirely revolving around mercy's ult, it's a fucking mess.
I fully expect mercy to get some kind of ult nerf, and her other aspects buffed. Hopefully they do the smart thing and make her take an ult penalty when she dies, so picking her off actually does something instead of her just respawning first and rezing her entire team that died while she wasnt there to heal them.
>>342629379
It wouldn't be the end of the world, but if they buff him I'd rather they make him a better healer
>>342629889
Roadhog's an ult battery. He needs to be able to get quick shutdowns.
>>342629975
Her ult needs to charge SLIGHTLY slower, not too slow though else Lucio will be literally the only good support character.
>>342624687
All I hear is WHaaaa WHaaaH Whhhaaaaaaaaaa!
>>342629889
yes, roadhog can kill shit fast in a combo, but Roadhogs existence (a 600HP big ass target) already gives everyone on the other team Ult faster.
that's why he is balanced.
if roadhog had HP and hitbox like Mccree, then he would be broken.
>>342629896
Add Mercy's ult animation needs to finish before successfully rezzing teammates
>>342629889
>buggy instakill
i think you miss the point of the hook
>>342630143
>a character who dies almost instantly to everyone else in the game needs an ult who has a casting time
no, then she would never get to use it.
>>342624687
Mei is pretty much a hard counter to Reaper, bud
>>342630041
>better healer
increase the harmony orb duration off-screen to 5 seconds, he needs nothing else
>>342627442
no hard counter sure, but he isnt instant death to anyone, if you zone him into close range properly with a sniper, he will get munched by macree, reaper, mei, any of the tanks, genji.
>>342630293
It shouldn't work instantly. Flying in, presssing q, and dying instantly should not be viable and yet it wins games.

more like a 50/50 matchup of neither one dying and being able to escape at ease before dying.
>>342630075
>charging too fast is the problem
No the problem is that it's instant you absolutely can no stop it.
>>342624687
Pharah's rocket launcher only does high damage on direct hits, the splash damage on the rockets are pitiful and she can be brought down almost instantly by a Soldier or a Sniper
>>342630465
it's her only reliable job
everyone elses ult can win the game too. Kill her before she gets in range then.
>>342630293
Gee, maybe reviving an entire fucking team is something that's stupidly powerful and not something she should be able to do for free?
Mercy's ult should being used to revive 1 to 3 people, not a free undo when you get completely wiped. Flying to a dead body and instant casting res and then dying instantly is cheesy as shit
>>342630540
I'm pretty sure you used to be able to shut it down in the beta. For something as strong as a revive she should have to finish the animation. I basically prioritize killing her now. Too bad my team doesn't seem too concerned about her.

>>342630679
Without her ult being as good as it is she'd be fucking trash. There'd be no reason not to pick Lucio when you can't bring back most of your team semi-reliably. It's the only thing she has going for her.
>>342630752
This. It needs to be a fucking channel, if she dies immediately, then everyone needs to be revived with all their abilities on cooldown and like 10% health.
There should be a punishment for being bad at an ult, just like with every single character besides mercy.
>>342630752
1. have sniper aim at the enemy because it takes them at least a second to move after the golden rez wears off
2. use your own ult after their rez finishes like zaryas.
>>342630752
if she gets a mass rez, they are all close to each other and you can get easy kills with a single ult like zarya / reaper / mccree.
if you used all your ults to kill the enemy team the first time then thats your teams fault.
and it's also your teams fault for going all in before killing the mercy, or not focusing the mercy.
>>342631005
>Not her fast healing and damage boost
She would still be a good healer.
>>342631109
She'd be mediocre when Lucio is amazing.
>>342630909
granted, it is high damage if the pharah can aim a rocket to your face.
>>342630993
is this a copy pasta or are you this retarded
>>342631149
>>342631109
lucios speed boost is just too good.
it's dumb that he's the only character that can increase speed.

she has the highest single-target healing ever, a fantastic damage boost and a bullshit unpunishable ult that she can fill back up faster than anyone else in the game in like 1 minute

>>342626884
That reddit acronym maymay makes no sense at all.
You can't say it's "hero inspired" and then describe it as Team Fortress afterwards. The correct way would be "Team Fortress Inspired Hero Action Game Going on Two Sides", but even then there's no reason to point out "Heroes" (classes) when you already described it as Team Fortress.
>>342631334

>>342631321
Her ult is fucking fine. Death timers in this game are so short that most of the time you won't be able to bring back more than 2 or so people. If you're team is coordinated enough that you all die in the same area/time, then you should be rewarded with that huge rez
>but she made my sick team kill Q irrelevant
Good, that's why it exists. This is her best and most important job, taking it away from her/making it more difficult when everybody can press Q and rack up kills almost effortlessly anyway would be retarded.
>>342631398
That fucking overtime is straight cancer sometimes. If we're going 99% to 0% on a KOTH, there should be no fucking overtime. Matches should nearly be instantly over if both percentages aren't int he later part of 75%.
Its also super infuriating to have the first point held until the last second, get stuck in Overtime, and then suddenly the team has 7 minutes added to the clock. There's no reward or punishment for having a good defense/poor team management. If anything for that solution, they need to give the first point more time, and the last point less.
>>342626632

You're playing an entirely different fucking game. Almost none of the ults in this game reward skill whatsoever, unless you count pressing a single button in the right time and place with some coordination from your team skill.
In which case, guess what? Her ult would indeed require 'skill.'

>>342632605
OP here, and I main healer. Whenever I'm not, Bastion is never a problem.
I blame shitters
>>342632605
This. Though it becomes a problem when you have a Genji who isn't actively doing his best to ruin Bastion, or a Genji who thinks he can kill Bastion behind a Reinhardt and a Mercy healing him.
>>342632704
or you know... lucio ult, or zenyatta ult.
support ults are unstoppable on purpose. it's a design choice.
>>342632515
This
>>342632704
You realize if this wasn't the case she'd never be able to revive anybody right?
She would fly into where her team just died (most likely right where the other enemy team is) and die without doing anything. If it wasn't instant it wouldn't work or be worth it whatsoever.
People have suggested it making it a channel or bringing people back at only a certain % but it would be worthless then. Either you'd simply die or your team who got brought back blatantly weaker than the other team would die.
>>342632818
run at bastion/reinheart while reflecting is up, press shift so you go past both
turn around immediately and pop 3 stars into his weak spot. Unless he is a perfectly played bastion he should be dead unless reinheart is blocking him. Usually the reinhart is to the right or left a bit.
>>342630752
>Mercy suicide dives

If Mercy wants to enable shitters to die all over again, that's fine. Free Ult.
>>342632878
Lucio's Ult can be stopped
>>342632878
lucio can be stopped before he gets his ult off
and no it isn't a design choice, it's an oversight
pun not intended
>>342632960
The only real nerf it needs is charging slower so the mercy has to be more careful when choosing to use it
>>342632878
You can stop Lucios though.
>>342633025
That works great in theory, but most of the time Genji just eats shit or Reinhardt blocks
Remember, Genji players skill either range from a tree trunk or a mlg, most falling towards a tree trunk.

so then cut the recharge time so that she can't use it literally whenever the fuck she wants with almost zero consequences

she doesn't need to fly in all of the time though, the range on her ult is bigger than you idiots are making it out to be and she can still use it without line of sight
fuck sakes, she can use it on some maps on defense from inside of spawn and then get to her team before the invuln wears off
>>342632960
There needs to be a way to counter it. She can revive a team through a wall, and be out of sight. You can revive your entire team through spawn on some maps.
If she literally dies the second after pressing Q, or get pulled/stunned/pinned there needs to be a consequence.

Roadhog is also a hard counter to Reaper, since the hook nullifies his escape, or forces his ult off.

Yeah it's not like he does enough damage with a single grenade to begin with, right, mate?
>>342634073
they don't speak about him much because the counter to roadhog is being a huge target that people can use to speed up their ult generation. I don't necessarily agree that much because killing anyone can be just as fast ult generating but maybe they shit at aiming and need a fat target.

Zenyatta is fine where he is, if he needed any sort of buff it would be a speed one. Zenyatta behind a Reinhardt is exceedingly dangerous due to Orb of Discord. He's a Tank melter like Reaper.

There are good Pharah's out there and they are terrifying. Her damage is fine where's she's at, there should be at least ONE Character in this game that requires good aiming and leading shots.
>>342634645
Not standing next to her
>>342634645
Roadhog, Junkrat, Pharah, Reinhardt
Roadhog especially because she can not do enough damage to him, and he heals it back. And everytime I see it ingame, it warms my heart to see her panic.

and they say they need to nerf me. If tracer sticks a sticky mine on your butt, you are going to die in 2 seconds no question.
>>342634259
that's a big gif
>>342634942
Rockets don't get crit damage. Junkrat's pills DO however do 120 damage on impact. So not only does he get 80 flat splash damage, can bounce pills off corners, can fire them over cover, can just spam them into a point from a safe distance, but he also gets 120 damage on direct hit.
>>342634908
Yes that may work in pubs but not in fucking organized teamplay
You will NEVER get to a mercy unless the entire enemy team is dead in comp scenario
>>342634942
something else had to hit you.
Be it splash from another orb, or even his mine.
Orbs do max 120, they cant one shot him

>>342634394
It's because he has the biggest health pool in the game which he can burst heal 50% of. You don't charge ult off of other heroes anywhere near as much because they can't eat thousands of damage without dying like Roadhog can.
I agree with Reaper. At first I thought the McCree nerfs were great, but after playing a little more Ive noticed he got over nerfed. Hr cant deal with squishies how hes supposed to. hes pretty shit actually.
>>342626632

>>342635531
it works both ways though, a mercy on defense with a roadhog will have her ult up in almost every single engagement and as such can just rez every fight. pretty broken on certain maps
>>342635578
I don't get this opinion. He still kills a squishy with one fan, you just have to actually aim now, instead of it being "press e to kill". I still play him a lot, and he still shits on squishies.
>>342635676
Reaper dies for a shit ult. Like instantly.
>>342632605
A smart team defending their Bastions is undefeatable on pub servers.
It's not simply a matter of "just go genji brah" if the opposing team knows how to keep their Bastions alive.
>>342635290
Mercy is auto include in every tournament, and every end card in tournament games has a "12 resurrections" mercy card in it.
She's overpowered, it's just how it is.

>>342633435
>there needs to be a consequence.
You mean like her being dead?
>>342635780
True, but that's just because of his big health pool, which also means he takes forever to heal to full. I think of it this way: someone shooting Roadhog from 600 to like 300, then he heals and is back to max, then eats 600 damage again. That's much faster than a Mercy sitting there healing him from like 2 health to full.
So imo the enemy still benefits more from your health pool than a friendly Mercy, provided you have one.
>>342636037
Everybody has known about cheese rat since launch you hipster fag
>>342628696
>Zarya
>Underplayed
I see her every game if not every other game. The reason there aren't enough Tracer's is because no one has enough brain power to down the turrets so tracer can roam free.
There is way too much Reaper. When Blizzard nerfed McCree and Widowmaker they effectively buffed Pharah and Reaper into the skies. Pharah is still managable but Reaper is a monster now.
>>342629654
Reaper doesnt need to be out in the open. if the other team has a 76 you can kiss killing that reaper goodbye since theyll have you on lock down assuming they have a brain. now if they dont and pharah tries to counter reaper all he needs.to do is not be out on the open. now all of a sudden he needs to just peak out and fuck anyone up without being punished at all.

This game has some serious issues.
Honestly I can deal with a fair amount of this but Tracer tilts me harder than anything, between equally skilled players she has such an advantage its completely unreal.

Agreed, stop being a shitter and kill her.
>>342636607
Tracer is the single highest amount of concentrated cancer in all the characyers in this game. And the worst part is being maximum cancer is rooted deep in her design choice, so its not a simple case of nerfing like it was with McCree and Widowmaker.
>2 tanks or 2 supports is super good yet no one wants to do it
Why
>>342637017
it's a term a lot of people use
>>342635813

Why not make Mercy Ultimate requiereve vision?
>>342635918
>>342636002
>>342636057

>>342636607
>Roadhog and Mcree have zero interaction kill states on 70% of the heros in the game.
Explain
>>342637240
All but McCree have their ult meters drained in like a tenth of a second.
>>342637324
That's where the term comes from.
"Going on tilt," "Tilting," is basically when shit happens and you just lose and lose and lose and get worse every time because you're losing, etc.

>>342637062
Every annoying mechanic in the game can be traced back to her design.
Mcree flashbang being a stun
Roadhog hook
Torbj turrets auto-lock and firing
Widows used to be 150 bodyshots.
She is the reason I enjoy the game less and less as more and more people realize how fucking broken she is now that Mc-rightclick and Widow aren't easymode anymore.

>>342634641
Feels good
>>342635796
he really doesnt, tracer you can still 1 tap with a flash+headshot, but Genji for example can just reflect your fan or your second headshot
>>342633868
Mcree doesn't hardcounter reaper at all anymore. Fan doesn't kill him in a flashbang, as long as he's holding shift you aren't killing him.
>>342637789
I don't know. He's definitly underpowered, but his E should still be changed since it does the damage of an ultimate if aimed right.
They need to remake him to be honest, I wouldn't know how though.
The most infuriating thing is a pro Genji
Impossible to hit, deals huge dmg, is everywhere, goddamn
>>342635796
the problem isallsix shots dont go off fast enough.
tracer, mei, reaper, mercy, lucio, pretty much anyone with somesort of mobility can get out before all six shots are fired.
and you need all six to go off for a kill. its too slow.
>>342637063
because it requires two good damage dealers. the other team will simply not die unless your two dds can aim.
>>342635796
>>342637923
He's still good but he no longer effectively does what he is supposed to do. They nerfed him wrong. You can still kill tanks just about as easily as before, but killing a Genji depends on if he was damaged before you stunned, otherwise he will get out free every time. Tracer on the other hand now completely boils down to if you can land a headshot in the stun(easy to do, people need to stop bitching) however its really up in the air if she jumps or dashes as you throw it.
They fucked up really hard with him.
>>342629889
Don't talk shit about best hero
>>342637907
Because unmatched vertical mobility and 120 direct hit rockets. If she had 250 HP or some shit she'd be the defacto offensive character in every situation.

If everyone is op then there's no reason to nerf. Retard
>>342638021
I agree, Genji has an infinite amout of survivability in experienced hands
>>342637907
its built for flight
its probably not actually all that protective in order to be as light as possible
>>342637907
the armor is probably light. think about it. she needs to fly. it's probably used to prevent the thousands of bugs in the sky and protect her body from being rekt by the insane amout of wind resistance.
>>342637063
you need 2 ofensive heroes, and as a result your team's damage is heavily reliant on the acc of those two people

What is the appeal behind this game? I played the beta and then borrowed it a few times from my roommate. I lost interest in it pretty quickly. There are only 3 game modes and barely any maps. How do you not get bored?
Overwatch seems to want to be a competitive game but the overpowered "Ultimate" abilities and in-game character swapping totally ruin that.

also, the appeal of this game is something called "fun"
>>342628758
Zenyatta is in a much better spot now after the Widowmaker nerf
Like other anons have said though, some form of mobility would be nice. Even though you're a backline character, just having some extra for dodging and crap would be nice. And also handy for during your ult.
>>342637217
Casuals
It was like this in beta and too many people bitched that they had to actually try.
Game was made to make the bottom feeders feel like they could do good at an FPS game first and competitive second.
>>342624687
I believe that Hanzo, Junkrat, Mei and Tobjorn need some changes, they are way too good.
Hanzo can hit pretty much anything effortlessly and do shitloads of damage with his ult, which is pretty much inescapable in some areas of the maps(especially playload maps).
Junkrat takes no damage from his bombs, even though Phara takes damage from her rockets. and his abilities are instant, you can simply spam those all around and get free kills.
Mei is pretty much unkillable unless she fucks up real bad. she also does shitloads of damage with her secondary fire and can hold an entire team without her ult alone. You pretty much need at least half of the team on her or else she ain't dying.
Tojorn's sentry has way too much range and during his ult his sentry gets way too much life and damage. he is so broken that on consoles he has a 70% winrate, you can make a team full of tobjorns and you will probably win.
besides that i just wished Lucio had a better Heal indicator besides the healing XP you get and a better quickchat, the current one is fucking garbage.

OP here. The game's main mechanic, hero switching, is already bad considering the game balance is shakey right now.

He's REALLY good as an Off-Tank, which is his role. He's not meant to be a main tank.

Your level of humor is Kaufmanesq.
>>342639943
Autolock is pretty dreadful when you try to escape and it also sticks from a decent range.
>>342624687
A counter to reaper would be Winston or Zarya or dva ain't it?

I never said I was. But that doesn't mean I can't apply critical thinking to my decisions in gaming. Anyone with a brain could.

Actually no it's the latency. You'll never get hits from the same range because they're actually closer than is being displayed.
>>342640320
Hard counter =/= soft counter
D.Va counters ults, but not the characters themselves. Pharah and Reaper for exemple still shit on her.
Zarya I don't get the meme about her countering Reaper

zarya doesn't counter reaper very well. He can even go invunerable during the ult
>>342640645
When's blizzard gonna add in "Don't fucking go to windowed mode when I alt tab you piece of shit" support?
>>342640495
if you time your shield correctly and eat a shotgun blast with it, you get 50% damage charge
at 50% zarya can out DPS reaper
>>342640797
Reaper can still Wraith Form away. Same reason why McCree doesn't do much to him now.

overwatch is a shit game with a low skill cap no replayability a bad community and 20 tick rate

Appreciate that, to be honest. I don't know what to go to, though. I'm stuck in meme games like LoL and Overwatch because my friends play them.
D.Va needs either a survivability or damage buff in some regard.
And then more consistency in which abilities offer warnings to the enemy team. Tracer's sticky bomb offers a warning, D.Va's self-destruct offers a warning but then Mei's Blizzard doesn't?

This game really fucked up with giving everybody unlimited ammunition
>>342632690
I think it's the funniest thing. I play a shitton of Dva and I probably have more mech deaths from Reaper than anyone, but he's one of the easiest guys to piss all over with the pistol.
It's like playing Roadhog vs Mei. It takes a bit to go through the dance, but you're guaranteed to win.

Gotta aim well with her rockets and try not to be too big a target in the air. Use her concussive blast and regular rocket jumps to get around.
>>342645072

McCree doesn't counter him anymore. It's very 50/50.
Pharah doesn't hard counter Reaper.
Literally the best thing Blizz can do that'll just 'cast a wide net' over all the balancing issues is to make ammo limited and put in ammo drops.
Literally thats it. That fixes so many issues.
Suddenly aiming matters. Suddenly every missed Hanzo log is one less arrow you have. Suddenly you have to stop and think "should I waste my ammo throwing grenades down this possibly unmanned chokepoint?".
This ammo limit will count for turrets too, Torb can refill his turrets ammo with scrap or build a new one to refill the ammo.

I like to think I'm decent at Mercy and Pharah, but regardless of how well you do, there simply games you cannot win on your own because your team are so shit.
It's odd really, in HOTS it's very difficult for your team to be shit.
The only thing I hate about roadhog is either with the hitbox or tick rate that chain can hook you at the most bullshit angles or positions.
>>342626146
Genji counter him okay with shurikens from a distance and chasing him when he tries to escape, and a well placed headshot deflect when he leasts expects it.
Soldier is better though.
>>342646549
They're not in the business of making balanced games, they're in the business of making money. The game was literally designed with the biggest of casuals in mind and it's paying off.
>>342646768
Yeah I used to defend him but it's just pissing me off these days. The reach is godly and it's super easy to land. At least a Widowmaker has to land a headshot to instakill.
>>342646682
Me and my friend have had a real bad streak with getting paired up with idiots. It's not like we do poorly, nearly every game we carry hard as pharmercy and consistently get golds, play of the games, etc, but there's only so much 2 people can do versus 6. We just get paired up with the most useless of people, if we had a halfway decent team we would have no issues winning, but we get pick classes that never pick, roadhogs that can't land chains, zarya's that never shield, and useless hanzos and dvas. I'm hoping that if we get to a decent rank in competitive we might have a better chance of not getting paired with shitters. I don't mind losing, but it's not that fun when you lose because your team is awful.
>>342635676

Pharah's is probably the most punishable Ult in the game. There's a reason for the "JUST" picture.

You have to be paired with shitters in order for the usually all-randoms enemy team to have a chance. Coordinating with strangers on the go is an unexpectedly charming part of the pick-up games, a premade group has a huge advantage and being paired against a similar opponent (two grouped up and other randoms of similar skill) can't always happen.

>>342647893
We at least had a decent mix of win/loss when the game first came out, but the last three days with yesterday being a little better were horrendous. On the first two days out of about 16 or so games we won 4 or 5. They weren't decent losses either, they were games where we were the ones mostly doing everything.
>>342647278
and then you get games where the enemy team is just terrible and you win regardless
that's not fun either
>>342648095
It's not everything though. I played 76 and got a 25 killstreak on Lijiang flanking the enemy team before they could get to the control point. My objective time would have been 0 but I was still playing the objective.

I love playing Zen, he is amazingly fun, but he is TOO glass without utility or a proper role.
175 health would make him bulk enough to not die at anything that sneezes wrong or have explosives.
A speed boost doesn't really do much, as unlike mercy it wouldn't help him keep his targets healed.
I'd say give him 175 health and the passive ability of levitation. Let's him take reduced splash damage, ignore junkrat traps, and Reinhardt's ult.
Or at least make his alt maybe heal him 15 health for every orb he hits or something. At the moment it's only function is to burst damage sentries from afar when poking around the corner. Nothing else
>>342651034

This happens to most squishies, you're not supposed to be in his face unless you're reaper or roadhog.
Although as Zenny I've walked towards him while charging his rmb and unleashed it in his face several times, that's fun.
He does need a survivability buff though. The only thing the enemy team needs to rape him is a Tracer or Genji, both of them shred him effortlessly in less than a second.

>>342651965
Tracers on defense can be great if they're actually good. Not many are though.
>>342633809
I was thinking that depending on how many orbs he has it gives him a speed buff. So if he discords a hero and heals a team mate he's faster. Still wish you could stack orbs
>>342652064
He's vulnerable for a short second when it ends, he can't reatliate during that split second but can take damage. Most people don't realize it since he's still in wraith form during that moment but just chase him and shoot at this exact moment, he dead.
Of course, easier said than done if he picks up a health pack meanwhile. But Soldier 76 generally shits on reaper.

Its impossible to defend points like in the japanese map when the enemy team has 2 zaryas and a hanzo. Literally all they have to do is sync ults and they win, you never have enough time and can never organize a push against it fast enough, regardless of your team comp.

>>342637838
As long as i'm not sitting at zero charge the entire fight reapers rarely give me any trouble. Just keep back pedal and keep him further than three feet out and he'll die or run every time.
That being said if you get ambushed from the side while your in the middle of a teamfight he's probably going to kill you.
>>342630752
Almost everyone's ult counters Mercy's. She rezes, and then one of your team is supposed to kill everyone again. Or use a wombo combo ult like Mei's or Zaryas along with a damage ult like 76, Reaper, Pharah, D.va, roadhog, etc.
Mercy's ult is also used to counter all the damage ults. It's not a good idea for a team to unload all their ults unless it's the last minute of the game or you need one more push to win. What usually happens is that a team is ult-happy and they spend it as soon as they get it. Then when Mercy rezes, there's no counter move.
If you are going to pop ult and kill a whole team, at least get their Mercy too. The maps are multi-dimensional, someone can get behind them (like reaper, he's good for this) and take that bitch out.
>"We're making some significant changes here and the game is intentionally too complex for us to figure out optimal strategies on our own.

>>342651737
But having 150 health with NO mobility and NO control over the pocket you're healing to protect you or move with them, it's hard to play against mobile players.
Every character has a role based on their abilities, for example
>Symmestra
Builder/buffer(HP)/small picker/speedy recovery(teleporter)
>Mercy
Dedicated healer/buffer(damage)/mobile assistant (g.angel)/speedy recovery (revive)
>Lucio
mobility(speed)/positioning (knockback)/tanking healer/chip damage
>Zenyatta
Distance healer/debuffer/glass dps
As you can see send roles of dps and healer and debuffer make little sense given his glass nature
