[@ktownpunkjr.1946]

God itsbeen do long since I watched you tear up games with Genji. I'm getting back into OW2 after leaving like season 7 lol

[@colbystoner1046]

call me crazy if my opinion sucks. but i feel like adding harder to shoot targets in return for more damage like with what they did to kiriko, will make a better competitive scene with more moments allowing clutching and more carry potential. if 1 team mate sucks its ok cause if we have crazy aim we can stand a chance against the others

[@conormulligan7966]

Would make lower ranks games more interesting but i feel like when you get to a stage where everyone is aim training it could become obnoxious or level out to what it currently is just faster paced

[@n7grey]

The headshot sound is so satisfying holy shit

[@amberhernandez]

Alternative title: "Come on, Shimada!"

[@velbutvel]

When he said 'no lucio is the real genji' that is the true moment when Arikadou became Alucard

[@iancoots4394]

She has the most satisfying "dink" in the game 😂

[@BananeKiwi199]

seeing Zens getting bullied always hurts 🥲

[@JMotion]

She's Genji, but with passive healing instead of a solo-wipe ult. Good trade.

[@astupidlylongnamethatstoolong]

Fairly sure if you got godlike aim you can solowipe as kiriko

[@alyero6341]

[@lukebligh8442]

I’ve been so happy to see you’re new videos, it’s been years since the og genji vids

[@023Whiplash]

Kiriko is only OP if you can actually hit shots

[@gnarlyarly9943]

Kiriko’s headshot damage is insane. I swear it does more damage than genji’s close range shuriken headshot damage.

[@Azarthes]

this is what supports are going to need to be if the game is designed around diving supports though. we can expect more and more supports to be highly survivable dps characters going forward.

[@tdunn779]

I am going to try out D. Ava tonight, been using mainly Soldier76 and Sombra but damn in practice range last night D. Ava was kinda spicy

NEW ARIKADOU VIDEO

[@YourKingSkeletor]

Been practicing her and gotta say, finding time to dps for target practice is pain when your team holds w into Bastions and Junkrats.

[@Ibnboulos]

Yeahhh, It's gonna be hard if you don't have a thick healer around (mercy, ana, pro moira/lucio). She's just a better a bap, with a harder but more satisfying intended playstyle.

[@meowcow21]

That's what suzu is for lol. U get a second to throw some knives

[@alnimri]

I'm starting to think that *Arikadou* is the real *Genji* afterall.

[@eliakim5878]

no way its ari, i havent watched u in yearrrss

[@arforafro5523]

Ah yes, the new support that somehow managed to be the new Genji, Hanzo and Zenyatta all at once.

[@DarkVoidRanker]

Two hitting a person is hard but when it happens its satisfying af as well as randomly killing someone far away with random kunai

[@dmlx4209]

YOU FINALLY CAME BACK?!

[@rullies123]

ngl i was waiting for another arikadou overwatch vid

[@knyt0]

[@cjvidal9784]

return of the king

Tbh a support turned into a dps as long as you can aim isn’t that big of a deal imo. She might need so dmg off the kuni to balance for comp but other than that it works

Now we need a tank that can wall climb and swings around a nunchaku

[@Ibnboulos]

A ball and chain weilding sumo warrior with massive cc potention. Maybe having a passive where landing on someone does a ton of damage instantly but his main weapon is just used to annoy and poke for ult. Primary ability could work into his passive where he stuns his immediate area for like a quarter of second and gives him a boost into the air giving him a chance of landing on someone if they aren't careful. And his second ability being a grab move and all damage done to the tank is then converted to target blocking damage but not eating anything. It would be cool if this also converted the damage to are heals for team and user idk cool idea man. The shimada clan can have alot of shit in it. This guy could be a big omnic shimada body guard.

am i the only one who thinks that healers in general are broken? deal the same if not more dmg than dps characters, are tankier cause they have regen + better escape abilities (except moira who has the best escape ability in the game + she can kill you easily while you feel as if you're fighting a tank, cause of life steal), have pretty much the same if not in many cases better movement than dps characters.

her headshots are like mcree, her shift is like baptist lamp, her E is like moira tp but better because of walls, her ult is a more upgraded lucio amp, and she can climb. A little op tbh
