Small nerfs/buffs is the way to go. Thats how we reach a stable meta. Major buffs/nerfs is just going to create a different flavor of the same unbalanced ice cream, and a month from now you’ll be seething and shitposting about the next OP hero. Patches like these are the ones that create a new meta because people learn the counters and incorporate them into their playstyle. The heroes aren’t OP, you just haven’t adapted your playstyle since 2018.

thanks

    So many heroes were untouched that needed buffs though. Patch was half-assed for the amount of time passed since the previous one. Very low effort IMO

    The issue is not the impact of the nerfs of buffs, is about changing the gameplay a bit. A bit more item changes, specially on item values in the early game, some general changes that affect every game, a small neutral item rotation. That would be the easy stuff, something else they could do that people value greatly is reworks, shards, aghs, but that takes more work to do.

    These guys just complain because they are addicts, in last 10 sb I play against really only 1 was a problem. They just want to blame losing on someone other than themselves.
