  • Just because you aim well on Kiriko doesn’t mean you’ll aim well on dps. Kirikos projectiles are insanely big, so you can kinda just spam them at head level and get kills. It’s not hard. Dps is definitely the most mechanical role and even the least aim intensive heroes require decent aim. There’s no Mercy, Brigg or Rein for dps players. Even with Reaper and Junk you need to be good at flicks and be competent at flanking.






  • I think the problem is that Rein has a high wr in all elos but only because he’s mostly used as a shield bot in higher elos. He puts his 1400 hp shield up while his Sojourn/Soldier/Widow pops off so it’s just boring. He’s basically like Mercy. Holding right click to enable his dps for most of the game. His shield is actually surprisingly hard to destroy. Unless you have a Bastion, it takes 8-10 seconds to destroy it with multiple people shooting, and that’s 8-10 seconds where you’re in LOS of his dps.

    So yeah, in a lot of games, you feel like you didn’t do much as Rein even when you did. That’s why most people would rather play Sigma, Doom, Orisa or Zarya. Because they can dominate more often instead of getting carried.



  • Constant counterpicking. You don’t see this in other roles, but for tanks it’s like the second the game starts getting challenging tank players just insta swap to Orisa/Zarya and the game is no longer fun. And the second I start doing a little TOO well as tank the enemy team is gonna go Ana or Bastion or the billion other tank counters and force me to play Orisa, Zarya or Sigma or just lose and get hit with the ‘tank diff’.






  • Nah, you don’t want that. 95% of the time it gets used to throw people off guard and combo into melee. And if the knockback gets buffed too much Lucio will be seriously oppressive in maps like Illios and Ilijang tower. Honestly Lucio doesn’t deserve a strong boop. He’s an extremely high mobility character so naturally even with a weaker boop he’s 100 times more likely to boop you off the map than Zen or Illari.

    Symmetra

    Zarya

    A lot of people are gonna say Orisa but hear me out. Orisa has no way to peel for temmates like other tanks, and even though she’s unfun to play against now, she definitely CAN be balanced with some tweaks. Zarya tho? She’ll never be fun to play against. She literally punishes you for other people’s mistakes. You could be tryna wait out her bubble but still get rolled because your Bastion keeps giving her 100 charge. She could be low and on one bubble but then your team decides to not commit and she heals back up. She’s a nightmare to face in solo que and low elos because there are no coms and no one is on the same page. Any meta where Zarya is strong is a trash meta.



  • But you wouldn’t say that if you were an omnic. If you were a threat to others because of something completely outside of your control, would your only solution be to kill yourself? There are a lot of things humans and omnics can do to prevent something like Anubis from happening a second time, but being racist to omnics doesn’t do shit.

    Since the omnics gained sentience, they are objectively people, and should be treated as such. You don’t treat them like people, and Rammatra happens.
