Seriously, I love zenyatta, being able to play offensively while supporting and get kills is amazing, but at some point when you get into higher levels and everyone figures out the game, the magic goes away and Zen gets fucked by so many factors that he just can't compete with Mercy and Lucio for support/healing
They make him a very offensive and capable warrior, whos secondary job is debuff and healing, but he is so glass and immobile that he can't properly serve his designed functions right.
How would you buff Zen to make him more viable to better serve his roll as offensive healer?
Suggestions:
>50 HP +125 Shield
>Make Orbs instant like Zarya's shields and let them persist for 5-6 seconds out of Line of Sight
>Boost healing to 40 health per second
>Passive ability to not be affected by traps, splash damage, and other attacks based on the ground (because he is floating)
>Ult casts Discord to those in its range as well
>Can float and move freely in any direction moving at normal movespeed while holding jump

175 HP and passive float sound good
Nah, buff McCree instead
Fuck Tracer & Genji
>>343842190
they just nerfed him and genji is utter garbage.
>>343841170
nerf lucio's healing
buff zenyatta's healing
but in the end it doesn't matter because blizzard takes suggestions only from their forums and reddit. They just use us to advertise
>>343841170
>hard countered by Zarya
How exactly?
And if you say barrier removes orb you are an idiot.
git gud fag.
Zenyatta is literally perfect.
>>343842190
>Mcree buff
Fucking this
Like Zen he become's useless against higher level players
>>343843610
>0% comp usage
sure he is.
>>343843610
Literally contributed nothing to support your point while still being one of those parrots that spout ''git gud''.
Thanks for being stupid.
Anyway idiot aside, Yes. Zen does need a buff and nowhere near perfect as this guy stated.
He's not a horrible hero by any means, but every other hero excels in the role they are meant to fill. Zen has a good concept going and it would be awful for it to go to waste and see him not used at ALL in comp.
Easily just buff his health, healing as well as that inane tracking orb thing. Maybe give him a bit more damage, since he is somewhat of a hybrid. As well as changing so his right click can give a miniature immunity shield and making it so if you hold left click you can charge up as well as shoot balls normally. I don't think this would be a massive change personally.
So, yea. Make zen good, please.
One simple buff i think they could justify is giving him a floaty jump with a slow decent when holding the jump button.
I mean he floats.
he has no other movement options, least they could do is give him a sort of glidey jump like mercy to get around and cross big gaps.
>>343842059
I think this would be good.
Apparently, he was 200 health in beta and he was a god. They nerfed him to the ground and said that they overdid it on the nerf and were going to fix that but they never did.
Perhaps also boost is healing very slightly like he heals one other person near the orb for like 10 health a second. Maybe.
>>343841170
The only character who hard counters him is Winston. Zen literally cannot do a thing to Winston.
I don't want no filthy omnic's help
>>343841170
No.
>>343849576
nice retort
>>343841170
Buffing Zen isn't enough, you have to nerf Mercy as well. Transcendence is just a worse form of resurrection that is significantly harder to use and charge to boot. Also can someone explain how mercy heals herself passively? She has no shields and she isn't aoe healing like Lucio. The hero info tab doesn't even address it.
>>343847095
REMOVE CLANK
o shit waddup
>>343850157
Mercy's heal is just passive after 3.5 seconds of not taking damage
That debuff is real tho. You can shred any hero if you have that debuff on them.
>>343846797
>Apparently, he was 200 health in beta and he was a god
The 200 health isn't the main reason that he was a god, it was because his orbs never left a target, so you'd have ridiculous shit like perma healed genji's and tracers who were pretty much invincible.

>Buff McCree
T. People who can't aim
>>343841170
>Mobility buff
>When Zen has both Harmony and Discord, he has slightly faster movement speed and has the ability to hover up into the air indefinitely
>When he uses a Harmony/Discord he loses his ability to hover and speed movement returns to normal
>When he uses both orbs, his movement speed is slightly slower than with one orb
>Utility
>Orb of Harmony now follows ally after breaking LoS, but healing rate decreases by 2/3 if it is not maintained
>Orb of Discord now follows the enemy, but the effectiveness is reduced by 2/3 if LoS is not maintained
y/n?
>>343850157
Tf2 medic does the same thing
>>343850157
Probably huffing healing fumes constantly.
How's this for a buff though: Make his heals not totally shit house. We already have one support who can't heal, we don't need another who's less appealing than asking dad 76.
