Bastion. Still boring as hell, even if you’re dominating as him, it just makes me want to fall asleep playing him. You just sit still and hold left click. If you’re playing against competent players, you’ll end up playing spawn room simulator. I just don’t get how bastionmain does it.

[@chongor925]

I would say Orisa still feels awful to play. Most of the tanks can walk on you. I always feel like I'd be better off playing one of the other tanks every time I play her. It does feel rewarding to get value from her though

[@YT_JONTEPONTE]

Bastion.

[@twixdog3316]

Junkrat for sure. His mines always put both you and players in an upwards arc no matter where the mine is placed (feels clunky when you're trying to put an enemy or yourself in a specific position) and he gets hard countered by ANY flying heroes and almost all hitscan/long ranged heroes. His trap also gets destroyed way too fast against dive splash damage to actually catch anyone, and it's catch hitbox is way to low allowing heroes like Tracer and Genji to just blink and dash over top of it.

So, I’m basically was protected while melting enemies with high building damage without any problems nor damage. Fun and stupid times.

[@emblom52]

Couple other points about OG Sym: turrets couldn’t be thrown, you had to physically place them on a surface. You could deploy six, but you could only set three on a cooldown and I believe the cooldown only started after all three were placed. I’m pretty sure the turret cooldown was much longer, but it did restore all three turrets instead of doing them one at a time.

[@spacedoubt15]

I still say the weakest Sym has ever been was for a couple weeks after Moira was released, because her damage orb could hit turrets - meaning your 6-turret trap with a total of 6hp between them got vaporised as soon as a single purple orb went through the door, and still had 99% of it's effectiveness left over. It deleted one of the most dangerous parts of her kit for zero effort.

[@BlueySchiffer]

Not true. Her cooldown worked the same as it does now. It was just two seconds longer (12s) - and the cooldown only stacked up to 3. So if your turret nest of 6 got wiped and your turrets were fully off cooldown you could only place half of them... and then you'd have to wait for the 3 remaining ones to come off cooldown one by one.

[@handsoaphandsoap]

It was so clunky, placing turrets in a rush was practically impossible as the game had a hard time tracking the input, the players movement and the map geometry at the same time. And don’t get me started on trying to place turrets in places that weren’t flat, the game had no idea what to do. It just really messed with her tempo and made her feel like she had two distinct gamemodes, attack mode where you had to commit to only attacking for a period of time and then a downtime for setting up turrets or the teleporter, you couldn’t really do both at the same time.

[@jewels3846]

Thank you I am not crazy. I swore I remembered symms having to walk up to spawn doors because of the limited distance to place.

[@sakitoshi]

but torb was so much fun to play back then. nothing beats being on the point minding your own business while the enemy appeared, poped molten core and watched them run away from that big level 3 turret. and if they dared touch you, you could just drop armor pack after armor pack to heal yourself.

You are capping hard. All you need is good bubble management and you'll have a consistent 70-80% charge at all times.

[@Siks7Ate9]

I feel like if they made any changes though she just rolls entire lobby's even today I can still roll entire lobby's in like 2800 SR. When I smurfed (smurfed for about 100 games max ) in 2300 or higher SR range I had to intentionally bubble myself badly because of positioning I would just live entire game while killing 4 every fight if I wanted to. Zarya is just really dependant on your positioning and bubble management and knowing the heroes limit. Also dependant on enemy's ability to hit multiple headshots in a row. That's probably why she feels bad to play in higher rank because you won't live long enough to get away while still being effective after you used your personal bubble to get away. Also the fact of the enormous amount of heroes that can either fly or have vertical movement.

[@BeachLookingGuy]

Sym has always been my favorite and this brought back some memories. i miss the locking beam so much, one of my favorite comps was lucio speed boost + mercy damage boost + sym locking beam. also because the teleporter came from the spawn room to the teleport, i would always find a really nice spot in the flank. i would wait for my team to wipe and place the teleporter down, they would all respawn then take the teleporter and instantly be in the enemy flank. also flanking with the locking beam while spamming turrets on the floor behind the healers was super fun.

[@BigShrimpin_]

I think it's also worth noting that reaper's shadowstep gave an easy headshot, since he would be outlined before teleporting, whereas now he's invisible until he actually teleports.

[@abdelali9279]

I remember when I started playing OW and tried Soldier, the spread was so much I even got a mouse with and extra left click that was an auto burst mode to bypass the spread problem, I got so used to shoot in 3 bullet bursts when Bap came especially after a short time buff to his firing rate, I felt really comfortable playing him, man he even outgunned Soldier during that time.

[@Capnsensible80]

I gotta disagree about Sym's old teleporter as an ult. Just because people trolled with it in QP doesn't mean it was underwhelming. With the unlimited range, if you could stealthily flank and place it out of the way behind enemy lines you could teleport your entire team behind the opponent and catch them completely off guard and out of position. Offense on Volskaya in particular was prime for this kind of play. Overall she is obviously a better hero now, but that teleporter made for some very impactful and memorable plays for sure.

Tbh I don't think Ashe was that bad at her launch state, but the QOL changes were pretty nice. If all they added was that, and didn't change her hipfire spread, reload, or clip size, I think she would not have been a problem. The thing about Ashe that a lot of people simply do not understand is that every part of her kit has a weakness built into it, so you have to manage all of it really well to be effective. Her ammo, making sure you don't whiff or are in range of the dynamite, knocking yourself into a corner or pit with coach gun, or throwing Bob off the map. There's a lot more room for error with Ashe that is sorely missing with a lot of heroes.

[@ricocarpenter2189]

I wouldn't say Ashe has that much more room for error than other heroes. Not whiffing can apply to any character and falling into pits and corners also applies to any hero with a movement ability. I will say her ammo management is specific to her and but wasting your ultimate is again, nothing specific to her. She's not the easiest character to play but she's not the most difficult.

Ashe was spread too thin. She was trying to be too many things at once and didn't do any of them particularly well You wanted long ranged poke: Widow and Hanzo were straight up better heroes. Ashe doesn't even have the advantage of her verticality here bc both can easily take high ground You want a midranged poke character: Cassidy was just better at that and his flashbang was a more useful counter dive/1v1 tool You wanted poke and AoE: Pharah and Junkrat were still generally better at fulfilling that role Like Ashe was a nice character in the sense that she has a lot of role compression: but it wasn't needed. She was only the ideal option in the extremely fringe scenario that you needed a backliner and AoE at the same time and even then I found pharmercy was much more effective in doing that

You only placed the exit and the entry was automatically placed at spawn.

I'm pretty sure old Sym turrets used to do 30dps, not 25dps. Going from 2.0 to 3.0 her turrets got a nerf in "potential" damage. Her turrets used to do 180dps total - and with 3.0 it got nerfed to 150dps total... and now they do 120dps total. This is all under the assumption that they didn't buff turret damage from 1.0 to 2.0... which I'm fairly certain they did not. As far as I'm aware all they did to the turrets from 1.0 to 2.0 was lower the cooldown by two seconds and make it so she can hold 6 turrets at once instead of just 3.

I love how he plat Zangief's theme when he was talking about zarya

Sad times for Ball players, very hard to play hero with moderate to high risk to get decent value, while sigma and hog get higher value literally by standing still. Still my main hero forever.

[@GenocideLv]

ball and risk dont go in the same sentence. You still need a combination of 3 counters to burst simultaneously (like hog zen mccree) only 2 of them will never kill a ball. Which is to say, at that point, when you have 3+ counters, FKIN SWITCH MAN! Ball players have been so used to being actually immortal with 4-5 counters from the early days, that they think countering shouldnt apply to them at all. Please name 1 other hero, who can walk past 3 hard coutners, be stopped for a second to soak damage, and still get away 80% of the time? yeah. noone else.

Music choice on point, really noticed it with Cassidy and Bastion lol

I’ve only played overwatch since January of last year, but I’ve played Ashe quite a bit, to the point that if my team wants a good hitscan they’ll sub me in. The hitscan nerf ran her into the ground. She had gotten two nerfs before that, and while she’s still alright, I’d just rather play cree or hanzo

[@cjb9510]

Cassidy’s worst state was his name change

[@miss20something33]

I love the way you talk it's just so smooth

[@iainkilcar7463]

Zarya really did just go from being one of the weakest tanks to being the strongest in the game with the release of overwatch 2

[@MrWhatyawant]

On the Ashe part, there was like some sort of delay after each click untill she would fire. It was miliseconds, but noticable. Thats why she felt so off, you'd click their heads, but by the time she fired, you'd be a pixel to the left or right

[@kyaryi1]

Genji is at his current weakest rn 27 damage on shuriken 24 ammo 110 blade damage Spread 12 Cost 1980

[@bribriibribrii]

I love it. I hope they never buff him again

[@Grizzy6122]

Stat wise sure but 5v5 is just so much in his favor overall that it balances out. There were times in OW1 where he was much worse.

“Giant Rein Dumpy problems” - KarQ 2022

[@Bulbaguy]

If he saw the new domfist today then oof, that would be his weakest state. Rocket punch, more like pillow punch

[@jonathanrapit2884]

What a intro💪🏼

[@f00dw3b]

Great editing :)

[@dorrianbrooks9408]

I miss 2.0 Sym. She really required work to make work(especially since she was considered a throw pick). I definitely miss Shield Gen and OG Teleporter. A good Shield Gen placement usually took a flanker outta the game trying to find it, and while everyone hated Mass Res, OG Teleporter had the same potential to be as annoying. Loved slipping away from losing battles and having my team wait in spawn for a TP behind enemy lines. I also miss blocking ults with OG Photon Barrier.

[@LegendkillerBlueFire]

Remember Sym 2.0 shields stacked with Torb armor in old CTF? Yeah, that shit was cancer. And it caused many, many, many stalemates. It was nice to have either one or the other, not both. But neither exist anymore, so whatever.

[@dorrianbrooks9408]

@@LegendkillerBlueFire I didnt play CTP because I hated the gamemode so I cant relate lol

[@drakegotcakelol]

crazy how the tanks were weaker on release , though we had two tanks so ig that made up for their weakness
