The problem with OW2 is that it feels like if everything works the DPS are the only players that actually affect the outcome of the match. If the matchmaking gives you a massive tank skill diff then that often decides games outright, but if everything works and the tanks are close enough in skill then it’s really just down to whichever team has the better DPS and gets picks. Healers really feel like they have no impact besides keeping the team from auto-losing

The pansexual thing feels so weirdly forced to me. Not the character, just the way blizzard promotes it as if the sexual orientation of the characters is just as important as how they play and their mechanics. Like, just have the dude hit on everyone in the pre-round dialogue and let the players figure it out. Instead of blizz’s explicit “announcing our new support, he’s Pan and he’s Here to gently caress”

Maybe I’m nuts but I preferred LW’s old controls. I simply rebound swap weapons to reload, and since the auto-reload was the exact same time as a normal reload, if I ran out of ammo or needed to refill my healing orbs I’d just shoot thorns for a second or so. It felt much more fluid than the current setup where there’s a weird delay and the autoreload feels unreliable

Nutsak posted:Pretty sure you can change it back in the control settings. The point is they nerfed his auto-reload. Before once you got a hang of the timing you literally never needed to reload because it was the same time, now if you do this you lower your healing output

imho LW's not a fundamentally bad hero but he needs serious CD reductions on his abilities if they want him to be a real contender. His healing output is fine. He should pretty much always be outhealing a Zen/Lucio/Brig but he has no real DPS output and his only utilities are on a 10-20 second cooldown. Grip needs a seriously shorter cooldown if they want that to be the main reason to run him, since his platform is good but doesn't exactly help your team win standoffs.

PantsBandit posted:For the record I'm not necessarily saying it would be OP with a shorter cd, I just think you'd be adding frustration into the game (for the enemy team) and good game design shouldn't feel frustrating for either team. (Speaking of, when is Widow getting removed from the game) Sure but LW’s entire playmaking ability as a support is these last second saves. I don’t really see how a clutch grip or platform save is any more frustrating than a mercy res after your team gets a pick. Just look at Kiriko for comparison. Her clutch save ability is on a 6s faster timer, she has higher HPS (that also locks on and at longer range) and can weave in damage without interruption, has a better escape, and nearly as good mobility without using an ability cooldown. Even ignoring the hitbox difference there’s zero scenarios in which a LW is a better pick than Kiriko just off the numbers.

urea posted:They can probably still balance him though just by adjusting the numbers enough. I mean, maybe but not really Wifeleaver’s fundamental failing is that he’s the least proactive hero in the game. He has nothing that can help your team win fights, instead he has a couple tools to make it harder for the enemy team to win. His damage output is extremely mediocre and unlike almost every other support, he’s incapable of providing any healing while dealing damage. The other super defensive support, mercy, still has far more offensive utility with her damage boost. I think his relatively high healing numbers kind of give something away: his healing output is so high because the enemy team is alive for longer when he’s picked, so his numbers have to be higher just to keep up. (There’s also a bug with his ult that makes his scoreboard healing much higher than what he’s actually doing, idk if this has been addressed or not)

toadee posted:I think it's a bit early to say Lifeweaver is still bad, the latest buffs are kind of insane. The change to 50 armor worth of health, the Tree of Life overhealth buff, further thorn volley spread buffs, the increased heal from his dash...... I mean there has to be a point where all of these things add up to just an unkillable blob of health He still runs into the fundamental problem of being a support with almost no utility. Granted, Tree of Life is now definitely a very strong ultimate, but switching from his left and right click still feels bad because the delay on his healing charge means that he can't snap heal someone who's about to die, he only has his grip. If they want to make him actually good they need to switch the way his heal charges; have it start at full charge and then recharge automatically after firing. Like how Illari's weapons work. That way you can still fire off heals while applying thorn volley pressure. Speaking of Illari, there's 0 chance her turret doesn't eat a nerf. They literally just hit Torb's turret with the reasoning of "it provided too much value just for throwing it down"

AndNowMax posted:I’m curious how Illari is going to age once people get used to her. The complaint about Moira for years has been that she has no utility; she can damage, heal, and escape, and that’s it. That seems to describe Illari to a T. Are people going to say the same thing about her, or does she have more pop-off potential to make up for it? The comparison is fair in the sense that they both are supports who pump out healing and damage in huge amounts and that's it. The key difference is that Illari is a long range hitscan hero so it's a lot easier for your team to instantly pick someone off after you headshot them, instead of Moira's constant damage over time. I think you'll 100% need to run Kiriko or Ana alongside them, but in something like a sigma comp where you just play off corners constantly I think Illari would deserve serious consideration competitively

PantsBandit posted:Am I missing something or is Brig horrid currently? She just feels very vulnerable, and doesn't make up for it in healing or damage. It's a very unfavorable meta for her in the traditional sense because poke is strong so brawl comps suffer. She's like Lucio in that the hero themself isn't that weak it's just that the tanks they most like to play with get kind of bullied right now. She absolutely can still work as an Ana bodyguard to protect her from dives, but if you try to go in swinging you're going to get mowed down by all the soldier/ashe/illari/orisa/baptise/etc. that are being widely played right now

Volskaya, 1st point Anubis, and Hanamura are genuinely all-time great maps Lunar Colony I could do without. Paris was weak. All their effort went into the Hybrid maps since they solved the biggest problem of 2CP being much more fun for both teams on the first point than the second

It's also important to emphasize that DoT effects are significantly weaker since there's so much healing flying around. Even a 2s effect means that if there's something like Illari pylon or a Lucio/Brig healing aura going on, the effect won't be nearly as strong as just getting whacked for 120dmg

Dick Jones posted:Was Sombra even broken to begin with? I don't remember seeing anything on Reddit or YouTube about her having an unfair advantage. My biggest gripe was the Roadhog nerf that allowed hooked squishies to survive a point blank shot. Sombras really good at the lower ranks where people don't react to her picking off healers in the back line, and really good at the absolute highest levels of play since you can actually coordinate a dive to instantly delete a squishy and her EMP is still probably one of the strongest ults in the game for high level coordinated play

Lifeweaver is still the worst support because he cannot help your team secure kills, but in low ranks that's less important and his ult is genuinely one of the stronger ults in the game now. He's now C tier or D tier depending on how you rank but he's definitely no longer F tier like he was before

The "Lifeweaver ruins a play with a bad grip" thing is vastly overblown in terms of how often it actually happens, but at the same time it feels bad enough that the very rare times it does happen it has such an outsized mental impact on the person who got gripped that I get the gripes with it. I think that if they want LW to be a serious support pick in the tier of Bap/Kiri/Ana they need to change how his heal works: make it start at full charge and then automatically refill, like how Illari's primary fire functions. Lifeweaver's thorn volley is an active liability because if you need to suddenly save a dps that's getting attacked you need to switch fire modes, charge up a shot, and then wait for the projectile to travel, by which point your ally is already dead. If instead you could just fire off a healing bloom in between rounds of the thorns, he'd feel much more dynamic and proactive. Call me crazy but I actually preferred his original control scheme for the thorn/heals, I just rebound reload to swap weapons and it felt very natural to fire off thorn blasts while your heals reloaded since the autoreload and the manual reload were the same amount of time.
