Macaluso posted:Do you want them to release Overwatch characters once a year or something or what Nah but assuming Ana and Junkrat are coming up Overwatch will have been about 1/3rd of releases in the last year which is a lot. I like Overwatch and all but the character designs are kind of vanilla and the kits seem a bit faithful to me. Genji is fun but unbalance-able. porfiria fucked around with this message at 19:36 on Aug 21, 2017 |

I wonder what Junkrat's auto-attack will look like. Maybe a standard grenade that does low damage but has AOE with the mine as a targeted ability. I think the issue with having his auto-attack be grenades is it either has to do good damage but have no AOE or piddly damage with AOE and neither one of those options would feel right.

PantsBandit posted:I wonder what Junkrat's auto-attack will look like. Maybe a standard grenade that does low damage but has AOE with the mine as a targeted ability. How about he doesn't have a ranged auto attack, but a 1 second between charge skillshot on Q that does moderate aoe damage when hitting an enemy or explodes after 2.5 seconds or something. Has 5 charges, charges all reload at once, 8 second cooldown. Give him a weak rear end melee auto-attack where he punches. Also a trap on W (which can be destroyed, like a totem), and a mine on E which he has to hit E again to explode, and does a knockback vs enemies and Junkrat that ignores terrain (meaning you can use the mine to jump over walls or knock enemies over walls). Trait is drop bombs on death which do pretty significant damage. Rip-Tire R1 and Explosive bolos or something R2. Dietrich fucked around with this message at 20:45 on Aug 21, 2017 |

Balancing ultra-mobile characters like Tracer and Genji are simple: give them drastically low health. It worked for Tracer, who has a health pool comparable to Li Ming and Baelog - she's strong, but not meta-defining. And then there's Genji, who has a much more powerful kit with more mobility, protection, and about 350 more health than Tracer does.

Lucio just didn't translate that well. He's too broken in ow and he couldn't keep the part that makes him fun to play, his surprisingly high dps that makes his mobility so rewarding. Plus wall riding is extremely goofy in hots. He's not a trash character, doing stuff with him just feels unimpactful. (yes he is the one I forgot.)

von Metternich posted:I was hoping for more necromancer skeleton bullshit. I know that's Xul's thing, but the more necromancer skeleton bullshit the better IMO. Yeah, around the time Probius was released. They said they wanted to cut back on the number of heroes who summon stuff, and also cut down on the amount of stuff that gets summoned when they do add new summoning heroes. It's why Probius is limited to only two pylons (three if you talent for it at level 20) and a single cannon with a limited duration that can't be manually targeted.

KT looks cool to me. He seems to be based around chaining abilities together and very precise skill shot usage. chain ability looks especially interesting and I like that he has a really big character model. Only thing I don't like is that godawful secondary skin they gave him and I guess his ults look kind of boring but the descriptions don't really tell the whole story

They've also said that originally they thought Probius would overlap too much with Gazlowe if he could place a bunch of turrets, but they've since changed their mind and will probably change that when they get around to it. EDIT: Today is probably your last chance to abuse Butcher's current power, his hero page now says he gains 20 meat on a takedown and loses 15 on death.

Apparently uther's passive is going down to 15 armor (good) and varian no longer gets his 15 armor from taking taunt (seems excessive but whatever, gently caress varian)

Also is Call of Kel'thuzad meant to play on Call of Cthulhu. I know not everything is about everyone's favourite squid mythos monstrosity but it does feel like it to me.

Well, his kit there was something like: Frost Armor Mana Regen Aura Frost Nova and Death and Destruction, which was like 4% health per second for 40 seconds or something? Yeah, he'd have to be more support for that I guess.
