Anyone who can fucking aim that isn't Reaper.

Seriously, maybe you should play the class you're bitching about. It's clear that you have 0 hours played as Pharah, or you would know exactly how easy she is to kill.

BTW, I have now officially seen a thread on 4chan botching about every character. Sounds like the balance team nailed it this time.

Nigger she has a nearly nonexistent hitbox while in the air. She is only a sitting duck when they're ult'ing or flying in a straight line
>>
>>344239252
Mei is still an annoying cunt whether she is balanced or not(for objective based game modes she isn't). Zenyatta desperately needs a buff to his health. Torbs turret could use some work to its range is shortened so it can't auto lock snipers from 200 feet away. Bastion needs a much slower reload to compensate for that high dps. Widow maker needs to do much less damage with her normal gunfire. And I think Zarya should have a lower cooldown on her ally shield and a higher cooldown on her personal shield to make her more of a support tank and make her a little squishier because as a Zarya "main" she is just too damn hard to kill most of the time.
>>
>>344237450
She is pretty OP. Two hits kills half of character the characters at full health regardless of range. Concussion blast is a super fast, ranged knockback skill. Her ult is viable if you do it in a corner

Maybe because TF2 is shit and most people don't play it. Also maybe because they are two different games and you shouldn't try to compare the different balances to each other. Also maybe because there is a fucking person named soldier in this game you are bitching about. Go back to TF2 if you can't stoo comparing the characters you faggot.
>>
>>344241152
>Gotta aim to get kills as Phara

Lmao as if. Her splash damage radius isn't massive, but it is significant enough, especially when you consider the spammability of her 6 round mag and her small, highly mobile frame, mostly likely flying somewhere in the air versus a slow, grounded opponent.

Her splash damage is next to nothing unless someone spreads their asshole and willingly takes an entire clip.

>I can't run straight at turret mode and live so he needs a nerf
Bastion is perfectly balanced, you need to realise that you can't play the same in every situation
>>
>>344241236
I'm calling out blizzard's shitty FPS game design, faggot. Comparing it to the FPS veterans who developed TF2, you can see the careful highs and lows of The Soldier's balance, whereas the design process behind Pharah is weak and fundamentally flawed. She's incredibly low risk and high reward, capable of fast, nimble movement, pumping out a fuckton of damage and easily flanking targets to devastate them. Saying "hitscan is h-her counter!1!" is nice in theory but in an actual match where you have fifty other distractions and this cunt is bouncing around above you in and out of cover, it's not such a simple equation.

>>344241493
I don't like to play as her because I find spam AoE characters to not be a terribly lot of fun. When I do play as her, I stomp, and every Pharah in competitive dominates, especially on control point. It's highly telling of the character's high reward/low risk when virtually every game you play has a fucking pharah in it.

>>344237334
>Justice rains from aboAAAAAAAAUGH

To be honest I fail to see the reason why Pharah is added into Overwatch.

Overwatch has a lot of areas that are closed quarters or has a lot of walls so she can do massive splash damage if even the player is shit at aiming.

Anyone who have played quake of tribes can easily land a direct shot or lead their shot and and get a nice mid air against other Pharah who aren't as good.
>>

A good Genji is annoying to deal with, but literally just have a Winston sit on him and he can't do shit.

I don't give a fuck. I play the game for fun, so I play as characters I enjoy playing as. Pharah is just an annoying cunt with a shitty design philosophy and the game would be 100x better without her. I can't wait for the game to get dedicated servers so she can be banned from play.

>>344242987
You're a retard and have no idea what "hard counter" means.

Genji is a hard counter to Bastion.
Reaper is a hard counter to Winston.

A hard counter is a matchup that will 90% of the time go in favor of one character. Pharah is perfectly viable in a 1v1 against all of the characters you listed. ESPECIALLY Genji.

I'm not posting it because it is not an argument, sorry. Competitive is a joke at the moment and the luck of who you get paired with has zero reflection on your skill or competence. It also has zero reflection on an objective discussion of the game design of a character, especially when compared to an actually well designed one from a different game. Eat shit.

>missing the point

It's about the checks and balances of a character's game design. Pharah has NO hard counter, only soft ones. Any decent Pharah can put the pressure on a 76/McCree who has to precisely aim, versus her volley spam, (which also conveniently knocks them back, further fucking their aim). It's shitty game design and shows Blizzard's poor insight into FPS design. It's no surprise that you will encounter a Pharah in virtually every game.

>Any decent Pharah can put the pressure on a 76/McCree who has to precisely aim, versus her volley spam, (which also conveniently knocks them back, further fucking their aim).
Everything Soldier fires has a much faster projectile speed than Pharah's missile. If Soldier can lead his missiles, Pharah's dead before she can attempt to disrupt him.

OP is referring to his walk speed.

Soldier is highly mobile at the expense of his HP pool, balancing the risk of making yourself a weaker target to get to your destination more quickly or attaining an advantageous position in the battlefield.

Pharah has no such quandary and can hover and soar across the map as she pleases, to no penalty whatsoever.

What the fuck are you smoking? You don't have to outrange him from ABOVE, dumb shit, just fall back and start spamming rockets at him. I've NEVER had a problem with Roadhogs as Pharah aside from a few skilled hook snags while I wasn't aware of him.

So on the ground, where you have, by definition, more obstacles, makes it easier for you to get out of range and pop the guy.

You can easily have enough horizontal distance between you and a roadhog to render his hook useless while your rockets can continually pound him, all the while, still being in the air and above most obstacles.

This isn't fucking rocket science, retard.

Just move on already and stop complaining. I stopped playing the game few weeks ago, unintalled and everything because it just wasnt fun. Massive hitboxes, shitty matchmaking, hero stacking and in general an abysmal balance that the devs think is "just right".
It could have been a decent game, but no. Move on and forget it. As everyone said before, its just a seasonal memegame, its popular for this summer and soon after prettymuch nobody will ever talk about it. None of the people I know play this game anymore either. People moved back to bigger, better things than this turd.

I would also like to add that when they announced Overwatch, I said "blizzard has no idea how to do an FPS game, its going to be a mess" and I was fucking right. I called it then and nobody fucking believed me. Well ya aint laughing now boys!

In close quarters? Roadhog absolutely decimates Pharah if he gets a hook off. You do not want to be anywhere near him at all.
Winston is a soft counter at close range. Same with Zarya. Tracer is annoying little bitch, a good Tracer can really mess with Pharah and take very little splash damage.
...Do I even need to mention McCree? Even with his nerfs there's not a fucking chance in hell you'll ever survive a flash.

One mag dump is all it takes. Pharah has a lot of tools to escape tracer so it's usually not an issue but if Pharah is stuck in a tight space, it can be really hard to get a direct hit on tracer, or even do sufficient splash damage. At really really close range, Tracer wins by a landslide.

Pharah is the ultimate mid range character. She excels if you hover *just* outside of people's range. If you go too far back, they easily dodge your rockets(not effective at DPS AT ALL) and she gets picked off by snipers.

On the other side, Pharah is shit at killing Tracer, unless you surprise her with two good shots in a row, it's going to be recall and try again.
>>
Pharah is my most played character and I find any decent 76 shuts her down like it's fucking nothing. He's got hitscan weapon with barely any spread, small mobile frame, enough health to survive two direct hits and a heal. That makes him really hard to kill in the short time before he kills you. Unless of course you're fighting him up close, but the whole point of Pharah is to provide aerial superiority, and pick at enemies that are hard to reach for your frontline team.

This is what I hate about playing support, people don't want to play one so I end up doing the job but you have zero impact on shit players, you can't really carry the team as support. I'd rather let an average player be an average to good support while I can be a good anything else.

Something I had never noticed since I play Rein a lot is that you're fucking huge and trying to your best to shield your teammates ends up with you being right in their face, that why they have a tendency to move forward through your shield to get a better sight.
