The most hilarious backfill is when you join a game where the team is about to win. Dunno why that happens sometimes, but it great when it happens.

There was a round where I was playing Hanzo and I kept killing this enemy Genji through nothing but pure luck. I've barely touched Hanzo. I'd fire scatter arrow into a room I saw some Tracer run into. Every shot misses her but the Genji who was also in there is hosed. I fire it at some random wall as I leave spawn...I kill Genji who's coming up behind me. I fire my ultimate blindly, just intending to force enemies off the point...Genji manages to dash straight into it. That poor bastard.

Scatter arrow is both too strong and unreliable garbage. It one shots people with less precision but is at the mercy of jumping and the dodgy geometry of the game. It really is a bad ability from all angles.

Yeah, the worst feeling is suddenly taking a 100% shot before seeing that it was just the random splash of a scatter arrow fired somewhere vaguely in your direction. It already feels bad to die to a spammed corner arrow from Hanzo but that's even worse.

Buff the per arrow damage to parity with normal arrows with regards to how far it's drawn and increase the number of bounces but then make it so that only one arrow from any scatter shot can damage any one target. Still no headshot capability

Just make it scatter on release, then it can be a tool for finishing off damaged people that are trying to get away. Maybe make his regular arrow a bit better too?

I'd get rid of the idea of Hanzo as some backline sniper and just nudge him toward a full fledged aggressive midrange fighter. Give him a sprint similar to Soldier, but maybe limited. Give him a better fire rate on M1 arrows. Ditch scattershot and give him a trick arrow with some kind of minor CC, OR give him an armor/barrier shredding special arrow on cooldown.

SHY NUDIST GRRL posted:Just make it scatter on release, then it can be a tool for finishing off damaged people that are trying to get away. Honestly, Hanzo's regular arrows are already pretty dang good. Even if they're no longer as big as they used to be in terms of hit boxes they're still more generous than a hitscan bullet, they've been buffed to have faster velocity, and they do 250 damage on a headshot which is enough to 1HK half the cast and force the other half to strongly consider backing off or popping defensive/sustain abilities. Really, Hanzo's big issues are simply that unlike "actual" DPS heroes his mobility is poor and he exists in a game where there are good and viable hitscan heroes that can do much the same things you'd want Hanzo doing. Scatter arrow's problem aside from being difficult to rely on is that it doesn't really add a lot of additional utility to his kit, it's just Arrow 2: More Bigger Damage (Maybe).

the consistent theme between all Hanzo's actives is that they give him the ability to overcome the usual line of sight weaknesses of the sniper archetype but scattershot is definitely the most unreliable element of that as it currently exists and tends to be materially more useful for popping enemies trying to close on you

Make scatter arrow work like Mark & Execute from Splinter Cell, drag the crosshair over targets to mark them and you fire the splinters home in on them, they stay marked if they dodge around corners for the same amount of time Zen's discord lasts.

Do have to admit, the changes to Sombra from the update do feel a lot better for her. Hacking a lot more useful now it doesn't take forever and have a large cooldown.

Theta Zero posted:That's essentially giving Hanzo a "kill player" button. Not if each "mark" only assigns a single splinter to each target, which is what I mean. The individual splinters only do like 75 damage apiece, it's putting all six splinters into a single target that causes them to explode. And I don't mean like "homing missile" homing, just that you mark someone, launch the arrow, and one of those splinters will ricochet its way towards them unless they manage to juke it. The ostensible purpose of splinter arrow is to make sick bank shots and hit people behind cover, the early still-in-beta demo reel that included Hanzo showed him doing this to an old version of Bastion with the forward shield for example. But it's basically a complete crapshoot whether you can actually do that or not because you can't predict how the arrows are going to scatter so it's more effective if still somewhat random to try and go for footshot-instakills. If you make how the splinters fly somewhat more "intelligent" and eliminate the ability for Hanzo to just stuff them all into a single target then splinter arrow becomes more an ability useful for finishing off wounded enemies taking cover which, on a reasonable cooldown, isn't too terrible.

Replacing scatter arrow with a piercing arrow that goes through players and/or shields but has limited range would get his rear end on the point.Kai Tave posted:Make scatter arrow work like Mark & Execute from Splinter Cell, drag the crosshair over targets to mark them and you fire the splinters home in on them, they stay marked if they dodge around corners for the same amount of time Zen's discord lasts. I think if this had a skill shot component to it, it would work. Like, the skill button marks someone you can see (or even someone who just ducked out of sight) and then paints a stationary target on a nearby surface that you have to hit with a regular arrow in like 1 second or something. If you hit it, the arrow ricochets into the target.

Merge the sonar arrow and scatter into one ability that does less damage but scatters and marks each enemy it hits. Then give him a different 2nd ability. Maybe a barrier piercing arrow or something idk

I really don't care about the teabagging, so I don't know why they added that stupid delay, but if they really want to change something, add a delay between jumps, because by god, those hippety hoppety bouncing Hanzos make my blood boil. Make the crosshair bloom, delay jumps, I don't care but that poo poo does not fly.

A delay between jumps would be completely loving awful, everything you just suggested sucks and has no place in an FPS. Once you get good jumping characters are easier to hit, anyways, since the arc is more predictable than someone zig-zagging on the ground.
