the no more 2 tap is painfullll😭

[@vampie_rush4534]

I KNOWWW. Literally kicking the air and punching walls rn 😭

[@jamesburnett3594]

I'm back to playing mostly Bap and Zen because of it. This will probably be the first season she isn't my most played hero.

[@vizx6032]

Heals feel really bad this season. Crazy how kiri was a must pick last season and now she feels really weak.

[@jules2250]

she really does, i always switch off bc her kit can be strong but there’s times where she isn’t even viable

[@davidnewhart2533]

As a tank player, this season is hell mode. I've just been chilling in Open Queue.

[@Anination12]

Watching you has somehow made me better at kiri😂 keep up the good work

[@anriell]

Thanks!

[@barb3cu3]

I immediately thought of you when I saw that victory pose with the donuts

[@Sam_336]

I was doing my support placements, and heals just felt really inconsistent to me during those games, but, im also low rank so my opinion probably doesnt matter. Great vid anri

[@Dojakeet]

Oh no your opinion is always valid regardless of ur rank bc I’m high rank and still face the same exact issue

[@anriell]

Feels bad, but we will figure this out

[@jaymie4827]

I feel like this season with the DPS passive distracting the enemy is better than sitting behind tank.

[@wildcatsmine]

my kiri aspirationnn❤❤❤ nice video!

[@anriell]

Thank you!

[@ECCC947]

Gold 2 u inspired me to be a kiriko main she so much fun thanks. Do you think in the future u can make a kiriko guide?

[@isaiahmuniz5768]

Keep good work ❤

[@anriell]

Thank you!

[@reisu117]

Hell yeah new jeans in the background

[@benji_jijiju]

Any tips for using kiriko?

[@dbdsfinest4820]

I'm play a lot of tanks and I've seen that healing-reliant tanks like Junker Queen and Roadhog are very hard to play now. Especially Roadhog, JQ is playable but he's just dead.

[@Mattchu44]

I find it much harder to play off angles and hide from hitscan, the new sizes of the bullets and projectiles is very generous to those with mid or bad aim.

[@anriell]

Yes, everyone is hitting their shots now, it is especially easier on some dps characters

[@greentaffy101]

I played my placements. Went 4-6 and got Gold 3. One thing I noticed is that all games were either roll or be rolled. Additionally, I couldn’t keep anyone alive with Kiriko. I would be one inch away from my teammate and healing them, and they’d just explode. Weirdly enough, I did play a game of Moira and realized she was a better pick for some games due to her buff and healing output. The DPS passive made my tank’s HP disappear in 2 seconds. Def needs to be reworked.

[@greentaffy101]

This season feels honestly like an Arcade mode with the added HP and how everyone melts.

[@anriell]

Kinda true, and we cannot count on tank to be good and play near the cover, we should be able to save them somehow. All my games are roll or be rolled too…

[@greentaffy101]

@@anriell Yes, exactly! My damage isn’t as consistent with Kiriko, so I’m going to try and play more Moira this season until they fix the DPS passive or at least tune the % down. Kiriko is still my fave support, but I can’t get as much value.

[@Asmodeuss_X]

I was Master 5 and i placed Diamond 4, will have to adjust my playstyle and get used to the healing reduction, but i like the grind. Also I love your voice!! ^^

[@anriell]

🦊💜

[@Everlak89]

I’m enjoying this season so far. I did my placement for all three and I’m having fun overall, the only thing is that I think that the DPS passive was a bit much. I’m ok with the bigger bullets, but buffing all dps + nerfing all support was a bit much.

[@anriell]

I agree!

[@gamersworld4176]

just the video i was looking for. also my placements was really good on the contrary . i finally climbed out of bronze after being hard stuck there in the card system. but healing overall is being really reduced and moira has become essentially a right click bot now. her other things is really underwhelming and ult does nothing .

[@anriell]

Glad you ranked up! Moira is kinda good this season in comparison to a lot of other support characters

[@randomuser1114]

kiriko feels awful to play this season

[@Everlak89]

I’m having the same experience. I keep dying even tho last season I was doing amazingly with her. I’ve started using zen and moira more this season. Zen especially is super strong now

[@bellsssbooo]

it's also painful to play ana with dps passive, getting dived and trying to save teammates through so much damage is HELL 😭

[@anriell]

Poor Ana

[@bellsssbooo]

@@anriell she needs a jetpack

[@ryaneppert6377]

Ugh I was plat 2 last season and I got placed gold 3 💀😭

[@SkwidToast]

I'm gold 1 rn after finishing plat 2 And I played in my first Diamond 5 game recently. My ego took a massive hit. I probably just need a break and then hit the drawing board to climb back and hopefully better.

[@dececanem]

That's not a very big difference. You will be back in plat in no time

[@anriell]

Everyone got the lower rank, we will climb back!

[@Dojakeet]

Healing is sm harder now bro omggg 😭

[@anriell]

Yeah
