Gustav posted:Riiight and those half dozen heroes presumably also don't do anything interesting that isn't already covered by 5 other heroes. That doesn't automatically mean they aren't good designs. In a game already filled with hooded grimdark bad guys, Reaper doesn't stand out. Also every Overwatch hero they port into HotS that isn't a sexy waifu is money lost for Blizzard.

exquisite tea posted:Reaper does nothing interesting in either his basic design or movement that aren't already covered by like half a dozen other heroes. Not all together on one guy, though. Diablo style soul heal. Tracer move and shoot. Li-Ming teleport but it's channeled. Tychus style damage, possibly even D.Va style multi target hitting. Samuro style high damage AoE that you can move while using. Tassadar ghost mode escape. Murky's health bar.  I'm not saying I'd want him, but he's an obvious choice. Personally I want Symmetra, Junkrat, or Mei in HotS.

Kalko posted:Having said that, I can't really see how they could put Mercy into the game and keep her iconic voice line because you just can't have a full group rez in a moba. It would either have to be drastically different to its Overwatch incarnation, or have some huge restriction like once-per-game or a 10min+ cooldown, and I don't think they'd want to explore that particular design space. People said the same thing about Auriel's single rez before she was in the game. Meanwhile until its recent rework it was the garbage ult you never picked. Yes Mercy's mass rez probably will not make it into the game as an in combat rez that restores everyone to full health that can't be interrupted. But there's a lot of design space that still captures the flavor of 'Bring your fallen teammates back' They could keep the rez a few second channel and suddenly 'If you wipe everyone but the healer you need one person to corpse camp for a little bit' is not exactly game breaking and more becomes a niche pick. Or if they specifically wanted it to be an in combat rez instead of giving health it gives a rapidly decaying sheild or only restores allies with 1 health but 2 seconds of protected. Or not give her the full respawn timer and only a few seconds after death to use it.

Fuzz posted:Not all together on one guy, though. Yeah, Reaper's design would be very very very very very good in a MOBA to the point where they'd really have to tune his damage or health incredibly low. Zenyatta would be way too good if all he did was "passive heal", "hunters mark", long range skillshot orbs (Chromie esque channel), and a mobile Tyrael immunity ult.

Don't even act like if Reaper could pick one last skill for his kit that it wouldn't be called Hungering Bullet and it wouldn't be a homing bullet that hits someone in the heart over and over

Lemon-Lime posted:They really should do this, she has a dearth of good skins and most of her kit is visually close enough to him to work. Valla's character is based largely around auto attack stacks and doesn't have the only iconic reaper ability, his teleport. Reaper is an up close damage dealer, valla has a reasonable range. Just really not seeing the similarity. Even if you wanted to argue about their ults, reaper's is more of a close range "die die die" while valla's spin is far more long range and sustained damage (does it still do notably less dps than her autos?). Plus, valla has a sweet stun ult. Khorne fucked around with this message at 19:49 on May 11, 2017 |

McCree would he easy to put in and could actually be interesting with a ammo mechanic where he had to choose sustained and range or close burst. Roll reloading would have to be a 20 talent though

The worst part of this game is when you're doing badly but the enemy isn't competent enough to actually just win. Down two or three levels, just got team-wiped... watch the other guys faff about for over half a minute. Start killing keeps already!

Reaper does not have a real escape tool IMO. I mean sure, have it be a ghost form that moves at the same speed as normal movement without a mount, and totally visible. That will totally work in HotS. Absolutely. Yep. In a more realistic version of Reaper's implementation, ghost form would be to heal during a teamfight, allowing you to pick up sweet sweet health orbs dropped by dead enemy heroes, but in no way does Reaper actually have anything like Vault.

Having just played The Butcher for the first time in forever: Wow is he ever bad.SHY NUDIST GRRL posted:The bigger they are is a total trap if you ask me. If the enemy is getting hit by your allies, and tychus is a team fighter, then they're going to turn off your bonus damage. You're trading your ability to secure kills to spook people. Like you said he likes longer fights, anyway. Tychus' goal is to melt tanks, and TBTA is really the best talent for that. You follow through with Overkill, since his trait doesn't affect it anyways.
