Going by what Lucio mains are saying, it sounds like they actually nerfed his wall riding. While it's easier to do basic stuff, more advanced stuff no longer works/is way slower.

Manatee Cannon posted:reducing the size of the grenades was big but the rip tire nerf was totally justified imo Yeah, tire speed nerf was totally fair. It’s a pretty small change too Son of Thunderbeast posted:the same people who aren't able to avoid slow arcing projectiles and complain that Junkrat is OP are still gonna trip all over easily-avoided grenades and continue complaining about JR Word, at least they’re not reducing damage directly. It seems most people in diamond can easily dodge or get out of the way of rat nades most of the time

A non-ult teleporter sounds interesting, but one problem with Symmetra is that too much of her value lies in automated abilities, preventing her from scaling with skill level as well as most other characters. A different set-it-and-forget it ability can only be part of the answer; she needs something more interesting and challenging to do in combat.

Her new ult is that turrets shoot out from her, covering every surface in LOS

Manatee Cannon posted:they took scatter arrow from hanzo so they could give it to symmetra It's funny that you said that. I was trying to imagine how they could make her right click more skillfull and interesting, and came up with a chargeable fast moving shaft or pyramid of "hard light" that shatters on impact.

Minrad posted:https://www.invenglobal.com/article...-channel-system You are fooling yourself if you believe the Teleporter rework is anything more than a single use Teleporter on a 60 second cooldown. Having to place two teleporters is way too much busywork for Overwatch.

Let Sym teleport people around like she was playing Rollercoaster Tycoon. There's no way that can go wrong.

YouTube video titles are yelling about a Brigitte nerf; please say it isn't true. I a) don't want Brigitte to be nerfed, but I b) at least want her to run amok amongst dive comps for a month before they nerf her.

Let Sym turn any doorway into a portal off a cliff. Affects both teams.

Let Symmetra create illusionary members of her team who run in front of her.

It think the only mechanic that really makes sense for sym single use tele is to make it exactly how it is right now, but 1 charge. It puts a portal up from spawn to your current position. If genji uses it instead of mercy, RIP team. This makes it work with all the code that's already written, and is in line with res.

Rand Brittain posted:YouTube video titles are yelling They're also usually deliberately written to be misleading as gently caress for clicks, and base a lot of their content entirely on wild speculation.

The only thing I can see getting nerf for sure is her armor from the ult, at least being treated temporary like her E version instead of lasting until you take damage.

Didn't symmetra's original build require that you place both ends of the teleporter, and then they realized that the basically everyone who was using it seriously was just putting one end in the spawn and just changed it to that to make it simpler?

Imagine if you could place them anywhere, go both directions, shoot through it, and had unlimited time/uses. The catch is that you aren't allowed to use it the first 10 seconds after you spawn. I'm not even entirely sure it would be OP, especially if you could still kill it. You could use it to give widow a cool angle, shortcut to high ground, combo with sombra health pack hack.

Zerya is pretty good to swing a tank choice in 6v6 elim comp. 0v2 goes to 1v2 so it seems.

elims is a good mode. bust out your best "bad" heroes and carry teams by virtue of keeping "good" picks open for later rounds. also some nice meta game and mindfuckery around the whole widow/pharmercy picking/counterpicking.

Symmetra probably fits better as a Defense Hero anyway, even if she lacks a reliable long-range projectile like most of them have.

Yeah she's somewhere in the nebulous area denial/area control zone. I wish there was a less confusing catchy word for that which didn't confuse and scare solo queue players.

I had my best moment ever as Reaper on Gibralter just now. I teleported behind a widowmaker on a the ledge near the attack spawn, kill her, drop down and finish off a fleeing Brigitte. I duck into the side room in wraith form while low on HP, pick up the health pack, and DIE DIE DIE, finishing off the entire enemy team. I get play of the game. I'm excited for my friends to see my rare moment of glory. Play of the game starts. I shoot a guy who is low on HP and running away in the back, then gun down a blatantly AFK Mercy to pad my stats. That was a moment of shame, nobody was supposed to see that.

The only time I got a good POTG was when I was playing S76, gunned down someone turning a corner and then shot at a Pharah finishing her off with a well-lead rocket. That one I felt was very much deserved because goddamn and it also let us advance towards the point (it was Gilbraltar B).

Or were you all killed in spawn at the start of the second round?

Anytime the other team gets one, nobody can kill him as the game will actively give classes that can't deal with him.
