Oh my god that last one is actual pain. Experienced that yesterday. Literally the instant I click to fire, MEI WALL! I was SEETHING but I flew around it with my team to keep fighting anyway. Thing is, it was the most random fucking Mei wall, like. Not as if they did it intentionally, they definitely didn’t it was a good bit away from me, but holy shit the timing and where they placed the wall I’m just internally screaming “wtf is that wall for!?”

I KNOW RIGHT IT'S LITERALLY PERFECT, BURST HEALING FEELS SO GOOD and the laser is just satisfying lol And burst is more valuable than having huge total healing on the scoreboard by the end lol

[@lesliejacoby9137]

Illari has that classic overwatch character vibe as she doesn't have a ton of abilities yet her gameplay provides great skill expression with good flow. She also is the first support with an ult that has no potential to heal or mitigate damage (Ik, shocking Moira players right 😂).

[@korosensei1325]

Kiriko ult doesnt heal or mitigate either

On paper, Illari's ult seemed super broken and a guaranteed team wipe every time its used. In practice, the most useful thing about it is the mobility it provides.

[@KalosKitsune]

IKR

[@absolstoryoffiction6615]

Not really... Her ult can be eaten in odd ways such as a Direct Hit and Barriers. Canceling her Sun Projectile. Also... She doesn't have damage resist during her ult so hit scans can shoot her down. Her flight is extremely slow.

[@gapphire3365]

My main opinion on Illari is actually a pretty funny 1. So, for context, I play OW loads, but I also play Paladins and love that game as well, and something I could always commend Paladins for was that they were never felt scared to put more bars on the screen or have complex resources that you have to manage, which made every character feel very unique and have different challenges whereas OW has always done just a simple design with no strict resource outside of Moira, kinda. But then there's Illari, not only is there a skill gap with her primary from having to wait for a full charge, her healing is also a resource that you have to manage and her ult feels like it belongs more in Paladins than OW, so good job Blizzard, this is the most unique hero in a very long time and I will definitely be playing them

[@KiNGZiGMASTER]

She's the lifeweaver we all needed!

[@marquisepixley684]

Lifeweaver is very good right now

[@nailinthefashion]

Lifeweaver with better stats is the Lifeweaver I needed tho

[@VYNYL_Music]

Definitely… well when LW was bad at first. However, LW has now since become really good in what he does, although he still lacks in needing to provide damage for his team, which I think they could increased the projectile speed so you don’t have to lead your shots as much.

[@ljb5163]

I love playing LW. I guess I’m a weirdo lol

[@cosmicdude8282]

She's op Her ult charge too fast for what it is capable of doing. The turret has an unfair range and heals pretty much as much as Lifeweaver charging a 40 heal burst (the fire rate is basically the same). Definitely need a little nerf, maybe increasing the ult charge by 18% or even reducing the amount of time the gun can shot heals (because right now her gun heal is just a better version of Moira)

[@kaliek5281]

I can already see Illari's upcoming nerf: She gets her ult WAY too quickly for how impactful it can be, so they are likely going to nerf her Ult charge rate. She gets that thing insanely fast, Ill use it and be ready to use it again only like 1-2min later, its nuts.

[@JulioCrsm]

From using her today I consistently get mine while the rest of the team is at about 50-70% during the first fights, the healing from her pylon, heal beam and dps really stack up.

[@sunflower9310]

I’ve played games against illari and her ult is so common it’s made. I’ve faced it three times in one game

[@cosmicdude8282]

She is fun to play, you need to have good aim to use her, her rate of fire is low, you got make it count. Her primary source of healing is the healing pilon, so you need to pay attention in your placement (the pilon life is low), and her ult, although strong, can be countered easy... I would say she is a high risk high reward hero

[@henrikfitch4017]

Yeah I think everyone saying she's OP is overreacting a bit. Like, they see one video by like a top 10 support player's highlights getting a bunch of kills and think that's what the average person will play like.

[@OverWatchMenVid]

Her ultimate is too much

[@karmichel]

@@OverWatchMenVid it is easy to counter friend... Kiriko cleans it, moira and reaper can fade and clean it, Zarya can clean with bubble, ana can sleep her, DVa can eat and genji can deflect as well as sombra can hack... As I said, she a high risk, high reward hero, her ult can be game changing or extremely useless...

[@zxnaz_]

@@henrikfitch4017nah bro it’s not watching videos that got ppl reacting . It’s the average experience against her for most of the ppl that plays the game. Even in higher elos it doesn’t take much to dominate overall . People exaggerate how hard it is to aim with her , she’s like a slightly slower cass or a ash without the scope. She’s very easy . It’s where she dominates every death match game and each game needs her. If you do not have her , you’re throwing . There’s no way she should be able to outheal damage that consistent with both options for her healing. She’s a good character but would need a tweak around

Illari's Healing Pylon is definitely going to get nerfed in some way range is about 10-15m and the healing output is ridiculous. Because of the range, you can also easily abuse map geometry and leave it just out of sight of even the tallest heroes throwing it up nearly halfway up a building

[@commanderxander5092]

hey flats, i love your vids man so cool.

[@AarPlays]

Couple of things i dont like about her: Pylons 1vs1 potential is more annoying than bap lamp, or kiri suzu Her movement is a little too low. I would rather less boop and more movement Her healing is clutch, but unless you're right next to the team there's nothing you can do. Similar to mercy, lucio, moira etc, but all of them have better movement (though she does have pylon) so she's good eith brawl, but doesn't provide any utility for it, and she's designed for poke My suggested changes would be- add aoe heals (not for her) on her movement ability (like, 50), remove the knocks back, add slightly more movement. Reduce healing beam to 100hps, but add more to her resource pool so she can sustain slightly longer Make her pylon shoot faster, but for less healing. This is more a psychological change to encourage players to kill the pylon and make it easier to locate in the middle of combat. Other than that I think she's good.

[@Bonartist77]

I kinda put this on and zoned out, but i randomly heard emong say he learned math with shaving cream??? and he's just like "yea didn't everybody??"

[@gorillafighter4037]

[@giveitarub7215]

Just wish the healing beam didn't consume ammo if you aren't hitting someone. Especially considering that it has a limited range, it's really easy sometimes to waste half your healing on nothing, and then you have to wait x amount of time to get it back. That element of her kit feels pretty shitty.
