One Shot, One Kill: History Of Widowmaker

[@timothychinye6008]

I would've loved a section from the widow's victims point of view. Like just a 10 second clip, of players walking normally and instantly being sent back to spawn.

[@tosemusername]

Familiar position for ya?

[@Helmut_Kohl]

So fucking annoying. I won't understand why she isn't hated as much as Sombra is. Maybe even more, cause you won't even have a chance to fight.

[@dumelisdumelis]

Well... Have you considered, maybe... NOT walking normally?

[@BPViking]

Widow can also be impactful without hitting shots, simply through the pressure of her existence, which in itself can lead to frustration, but without making her teammates feel helped. Also I somehow didn't discuss how she has been affected by the map design but I think you know roughly how anyways

[@connor.chan.jazzman]

Ikr. When there's an enemy Widow I actively play like shit regardless of if they are good or not, out of fear of getting one shot

[@Fairy-Uvinq]

Tbh, she's the most opressive hero in the game. Like, not even sombra before nerf nor tracer are as opressive as her... and both of those are incredibly scary on the right hands(well, tracer, sombra was just annoying, like a mosquito buzzing in your ear but not particularly deadly)

I've said this before and i'll say it again, Paladins of all games does its sniper heroes a lot better. They are about consistency rather than an all or nothing shot to the head, they feel A LOT more fair to play against while still being a menace on the right hands, they can still provide value to their team sice they can help wear down the tank but they're not oppressive for the enemy squishies.

The entire character design revolves around that being possible but equally as unlikely to happen, you f idiot. I think we can agree that's very unlikely to change because we know Wm does make Blizzard money, but if we were to go by game balance and design alone, Wm's concept, from a game designer's perspective, is still appealing.

[@totalwhitetrash]

​@@tosemusernamethat's literally what they're saying, you're just agreeing with them but in a weird way. Widow isn't a character that one person can play around/counter on their own. You need a team effort, and that's very uncommon in QP and the metal ranks, which is important because that's roughly half the playerbase. QP may be irrelevant to you, you're just an OW player. It's not irrelevant to Blizzard, because they're the OW devs, not players. QP-only players are taken into consideration with their balancing changes, the hitbox updates proved that.

I’m decent at widow, but I don’t play her enough to use in my lobbies, however whenever I do use widow. All it takes is 1 kill, and that alone will put pressure on the entire enemy team, even if you don’t hit a single headshot after.

[@tosemusername]

Show me your rank, then we'll talk. I watch a lot of Kenzo's and Kephrii's streams, and although owning lobbies sometimes, they still lose about half of the games, bar some lucky random win streaks here and there, usually accompanied by losing streaks. And that's even with them switching to others heroes. I'm high plat/low dia, and can't attest that statement, and even with kill streaks, games generally go either way.

[@kaitofv]

@@tosemusername I’m currently gm3 on dps, there’s a difference for what I mean by pressure. If they start off without any heroes that can effectively contest a widow and your team plays somewhat decent, that starter kill will cause a more cautious playstyle and force them to most likely swap. But before that time it allows time to go by, creating higher odds for winning. But after that I do just go back to my main, Widow lasts until I die and hopefully creates that opportunity

[@BPViking]

Not trying to be rude but I think “show me your rank, then we’ll talk” is kind of a stupid thing to say. Even if kaitofv was bronze his comment would still be valid as they were simply giving their perspective and personal experience. Also the phrase just comes off to me as inherently disrespectful, but others may disagree

[@tosemusername]

​@@kaitofvThat is true, however, it's not a given, and up to the widow to make it happen, even on favorable matchups, because if she doesn't, the only thing she'll have accomplished was giving enemy supports ult charge. In the end, it's a tradeoffs, and I personally am satisfied with the current design, unlike OP, reddit, and this comment section.

[@tosemusername]

@@BPViking I disagree. It's probably not very polite, which I don't care, and to top it off, I came from a StarCraft 2 background, where your opinion, at face value, carries as much weight as your rank. Emphasis on the "face value" part, since he hadn't elaborated his point enough to eliminate the chance of rank being a factor.

[@JustaGuy_Gaming]

Instant Kill mechanics in general work best in PVE games. With PVP it's hard to balance in any way that is fair and fun for both sides. In most games Snipers have to deal with low ammo count, bullet drop or weapon sway. Helmets or other armor stopping an instant kill, and often firing from hundreds of meters away. Oh and scope glint and other tells giving away their position. Mean while Widow has unlimited ammo, OW Maps are generally fairly close ranged affairs. If Widow does die she has good mobility and can be a threat from super far away if the sight lines favor the Widow. She is also basically untouchable to anything but another sniper in the higher ranks. It's pretty telling the only thing stopping Widow from being God Tier is player skill. Especially after various counters to Snipers like shields were nerfed into oblivion.

[@tosemusername]

@@JustaGuy_Gaming The part about mobility is wrong, but the rest is on point. It's why my 2 biggest gripes with this game are the small hero pool and the gigantic character hitboxes. The first is a general issue, being the lack of enough diversity in overall strengths, something which every MOBA or MOBA-like goes through in the beginning. And the stupid hitboxes, in the name of "consistency", also blow perceived issues out of proportion simply because it's easier to hit things from afar.

[@JustaGuy_Gaming]

@@tosemusername I would say Widow has more than fair mobility, not top tier but "Good" is still good. She has both vertical and horizontal options with her grapple, which last I looked was only on an 8 second CD. It also has quit a bit of power to it, allowing her to sling shot over buildings to get a shot even if she can't actually climb on them. Add all that to her range of effectiveness is basically unlimited long as there is line of sight, it makes her hard to deal with. You have to go extremely out of position to chase her down, and if she dies Widow generally has far less ground to cover to come back into the fight with some maps allowing short cuts with her grapple.

[@tosemusername]

@@JustaGuy_Gaming Grapple cd is 13s, which is why I agree with you about the more than fair mobility, for a sniper in Overwatch, and should address most of your concerns. About the unlimited range part, comparatively yeah, I guess?! But on itself, it's not true thanks to the falloff nerf, which I take issue with conceptually, but not in practice, as it serves its purpose currently.

[@Bken96]

Widow’s an interesting character, in the right hands she can be absolutely unstoppable. Even with an amateur player, if they can hit their shots, then even those players have an intimidating presence when they play the hero.

[@cmaster6042]

I feel like they just added her because every shooter has a sniper. I think Sojourn is a much more healthy approach to burst hitscan damage because you can outplay her with a lot of the cast. Widow forces you to go dive and on some maps you need to coordinate with your entire team to kill her(which for most ranks is pretty rare).

[@tosemusername]

LMAO another idiot factoring in team coordination in hero balance/design discussion. The reason why you think Sojourn is a better concept is because she's another flavor of Soldier 76, the quintessential FPS character, with some design differences, but in the end, very familiar, both in playing it and countering it.

[@youngflyest7007]

Bro shes an OG character dumb ahh yall new gens trash

[@PandoloFox]

Ever since they buffed projectile sizes widow sees more play in lower ranks as well. Lets remember that a character like hanzo had those buffs removed despite being inconsistent in landing headshots due to being a projectile character while widow, the hitscan character, hasnt been touched. It boggles the mind why this character gets protected by a lot of players on the count of "skill" when all they do is hold an angle. Sure they have good aim but their skill ends there and it isnt enough of a reason for her to have this kinda lethality.

[@SS-wh7uo]

One shots are never good in a game like OW. Players need a chance to react or do something in a fight. It's no fun when a decent widow gets off 3 headshots in a row at any range, either through skill or just shear luck. Only one person is having fun there, while 2 or 3 players on the other team are not having fun.

[@BigPro1123]

Agreed. If one character (that’s not a tank) can change the entire flow of a game just by existing they are an awful design. Everyone has to play differently when there is a widow

[@taco_sensei]

Widowmaker is the biggest problem of Overwatch and the dev team knows it too (they once talked about they would be very careful if they ever released a character that is as powerful as widow) . Sadly it's a little too late, her whole personality and 70% of voice lines is about "one shot, one kill". I'll come back to the game if they somehow fix her at some point

[@HeavyHebi]

I think the way you make Widow less annoying is by making Widow's Kiss's scope shot do less damage the *closer* Widowmaker is. This way Widow can keep her one-shot sniper archetype while also encouraging casuals to get in her face and actually learn how to take advantage of movement abilities. Widow at mid-range doing mid damage means she'll still be impactful, picking off those lower hp enemies while also helping her team get kills. Maybe as compensation for such a heavy change, you can improve her movement speed while scoped and let her jump so she isn't as vulnerable, and also buff her HP a smidge.

[@tosemusername]

LMAO just... no. Clearly you don't play sniper characters.

[@lysgasai5060]

@@tosemusernamei don’t think it’s bad, if you get closer to her she just needs to reposition but no so easily that the enemies can’t jump her

[@HeavyHebi]

@@tosemusername I used to be a charger main in splatoon where a system thats *kind of similar* exists, except instead of it being a direct nerf to damage while closer, its the fact that chargers take a longer time to reach their one shot than Widow does (except for the Squiffer and Bamboo lmao), so when enemies are closer wasting the time to get full charge might not always be the best for your team. I reworked this idea to be more compatible for Overwatch where any given situation is a lot more dynamic than in Splatoon.

[@tosemusername]

@@HeavyHebi Alright. First off, the built-in presumption that change is needed? Yeah, no, it doesn't, and I'll touch on why at the end. Second, the concept is dumb af in my opinion because it breaks Newtonian Physics. Conceptually, it's not dumb, it just doesn't fit within Overwatch, CS, and basically every major FPS game in recent history, which promptly discards the idea. Third, there is already encouragement to close the distance to snipers in the game in the form of both the need to address them, stemming from the one-shot potential, and exponentially decreasing the advantage Wm has over the enemy team by doing so. So you can choose between diffing the Widow by sniping her, or being unable to do so, default back to closing the distance, which is a valid counter-play mechanic, which leads me to my problem with the premise of the issue, that the current design is fundamentally flawed, but it isn't, and it's working as intended. Deep down, that's a conjecture about a subjective topic, so you can't prove it's flawed, and I can't disprove it, so I can only say this: If the one shot mechanic is significantly nerfed or removed, I'll stop playing the game. I fundamentally believe the current design around Wm to be sound (except the imposed fall-off nerf, which should be addressed by map design, and the plague of gigantic character hitboxes in this game), and I invite people here to try to get good with her, and play against equally good opponents. If after that you still feel the same way about it, complain to Blizzard, let them choose which side's more profitable, and we'll have our answer.

[@HeavyHebi]

​@@tosemusername 1. I never presumed that change was needed, I simply gave an example of how I would make Widow less annoying. You don't NEED to change Widow, she already makes sense, this is about making other players feel like they have more of a chance. 2. I don't necessarily think tradition/convention is a valid argument for why something shouldn't be changed. 3. Overwatch already defies reality, Widowmaker is purple and has no emotions because her heart rate got slowed down by a woman who can make a magic yellow circle that works as a cure-all. 4. I'm already aware that diving the Widow is how you beat her, but being close to Widow doesn't eliminate the one shot potential, which is the issue people have with Widow. You can get close to Widow and still get one-shot, which is also annoying for people who dislike Widow because you get punished for playing properly. 5. Something can be doing PRECISELY what its designed for and still be flawed. For example, I think Mauga has a flawed design, and he's doing PRECISELY what he was advertised and designed to do. For a less realistic example, I could give Zen a one-shot body kill with discord orb to improve his kill potential, and that would be STUPID, but accomplish what I set out to do. 6. You're right, whether or not something is flawed is subjective, where some people see bugs, others see features. However, what I disagree with is just taking whatever Blizzard says as the "correct" answer, because I do not believe that Blizzard is a perfect dev team who has a perfect understanding of the game and what their players want. 7. If you don't wanna play Overwatch because your favorite character got nerfed and now you have to play a tiny bit differently, that is a skill issue my guy. 8. I don't like playing as Widowmaker, I've tried it out for a while, I did pretty well, it's just not really my thing.

[@w1nther930]

One shots have always been one of my main problems in overwatch. Widow just feels downright unfair, and Hanzo did as well. In a game like overwatch, a hero shooter, some one shots feel broken. Reinhard's charge is a fair one shot because of the amount of commitment it needs to secure that kill. Widow just sits across the map and clicks heads and call it fair. One more problem is, her only true counter is another Widow or Hanzo, and let's be real, you're gonna be flexing to Widow while trying to outplay a Widow main most of the time.

first off: this video is of really high quality i can't believe it's from a channel this size. anyways, i don't think that one shots should be in the game at all (with a few exceptions like rein's pin) and widow's is easily the worst one shot that's here right now. my solution would be to give her a cooldown that buffs her next scoped shot/shots that allows her to one shot and has a visual indicator for both teams. one shotting is part of her identity and it would be unfair to take that away from her, but in it's current state it's pretty much just a nightmare to deal with, especially if you're playing support and can't reliably deal with her by yourself.

[@BPViking]

Great to hear that you liked the video. I think you’ve made some good conclusions and have the start of a potential solution. This kind of thing is very difficult to traverse due to all the things you have to consider. For example, how would you redistribute the power, how would this affect her playstyle, would this make big enough of a difference to play against etc etc. It’s just a balancing act between positives and negatives at the end of the day where a plethora of different factors need to be considered. Your suggestion could be a potential direction, although one I doubt they’d take considering how little they’ve done thus far.

[@nerdstorma8427]

One shots should be for things like spreads at point blank. Reaper or Genji. Because closing that gap actually takes risk.

[@tosemusername]

To everyone who thinks and agrees with this, I'm a high Plat Low Dia Wm main that enjoys and feeds on you all having a bad experience playing this game because of this particular aspect, and in some games, I'm reminded that you people exist, and everytime I dunk on you, I feel an immense satisfaction in knowing that you're getting shafted. And next time this issue comes up on /r/overwatch, feel free to remember this when you're crying about it. With that said, if the concept of the hero is to change so as to remove the one shot from the game, which is what you mob of tards want, and is a possibility given that Blizzard has absolutely no vision for this game, design-wise, and heroes can hardly be said to have real identities (they randomly made soldier gay, changed McCree's name, retconned Diva's StarCraft background and rework heroes left and right), I'd just quit playing. To me, it would look like they went back on their particular sniper concept for Overwatch since the beginning of the game, which had contributed to make the entire formula a success. It would also mean they chose to sacrifice Wm instead of fixing the hitbox problem. That they by then decided to cater to you tards isn't as big a problem as the 2 I mentioned. I'm biased, but if you're arguing for significant cooldown on scoped shots and visible scoping indicators as a nerf to a sniper, let alone Wm, you're not only biased, you're a clueless biased idiot.

Good thing people of the past didn’t think like that or we wouldn’t have cars, planes etc. same people who think we can’t completely reinvent this archaic ranked system that was based on 1v1 players. But now is used to punish you individually for team based gameplay. Where 9 other people can ruin you with their own free will and you get punished. Such great thinking.

She's not that hard to balance for everybody. Increase the damage on her SMG, increase the damage on her spider-mine, and make it so she can't one-shot headshot. (even with a mercy pocket) She can only have one shot in her ult, but in her ult bring back her old damage that could one shot in the body most squishes because it's supposed to be a DPS ult. With these changes, she keeps her lore accuracy and isn't super oppressive or useless most of the time since she will play like a budget Soldier until she gets her ult. Then when she does have her ult she can still get eliminations even if she's in the hands of a bronze newbie.

[@tojimaru]

Most definitely an unpopular opinion, but I think widow is some what balanced only due to the amount of mobility that every character has as well as the difference in hotboxes and health. Maps can also play a big role. On one hand, certain maps, it can be extremely hard to get value on with widow. And on the other, there are maps that are obviously in widows favor. Not to mention team comps. In most cases, if a tank goes dive and marks a widow it can be hard to even exist as a widow.

[@joobin1049]

with how much they buffed supports and tanks in the course of overwatch life span. as dps player I say, widow is not annoying because one shot is overpowered, widow is annoying because how strong high ground is in overwatch 2 and how little impact you can have against her. in overwatch1 widow was strong but at least you could control her with off tanks like dva or ball and because you had 2 tanks, other dps players could take long flanks or position against her with tank cover. now in overwatch 2, if you take long flank you are basically throwing and your tank simply don't have enough time or recourses to cover for you dealing with widow. so killing a hero far behind enemy line on a pretty far and safe high ground trough huge amount of healing and cover that supports can dish out is annoying. if by some miracle dev team some day reduce the amount of sustain and defensive abilities in the game by big margin, widow will become way less annoying.

[@tosemusername]

They could start by nerfing the egregious hero hitboxes, consequently nerfing long and medium range gameplay. Only after this point we could start discussing the next step.

My history with widow has been as rocky as her balancing history. I started absolutely hating her as I was a passive support main. Then as a slowly became better at the game and started playing dps myself she became less significant. If the other team had her I didn’t instantly freak out like before. And then one day… I locked her in a quick play…. And I realized… I’m actually pretty good at her for my rank and I have done nothing but click heads ever since lol I like her better now to be honest. I hate playing broken characters and I love when it takes work to express skill with them. When I win a game with her I feel like I actually accomplished something not like when I win with Pharrah or something like that (which sorry to her mains but imo is so easy to get value out of just by shooting the floor). I don’t really feel good when I win with her. I love widow. Thanks for the vid.

The problem with Widow is magazine size. It's difficult for most characters to kill more than 2 or more characters at full health with one magazine. It's not uncommon to see a cracked Widow kill 3 or even 4 characters at the start of a team fight without reloading.

That used to be true, before the charged-shots-now-cost-5-ammo nerf. We used to be able to somewhat rely on the rifle mode for close range, but nowadays, if you're not Kenzo and you're not consistently pulling insane flicks, if you close the distance to Wm, she's dead, and this is true even in GM lobbies.

Here some perfect idea how to make her more balanced: 1) if she can one shot you in the head, all dps should do that to her 2) low ammo on the mag 3) less speed mobility 4) make her with 150 health 5) or make her one shot into a 2 shots, so she can't one shot anymore but keeps her health, ammo, speed. You need a very good aim to one shot but to counter play her is really difficult, if a widow maker doesn't miss you entire team is basically gone💀

[@Sl1pperybastard]

1. half baked, she already is pretty low hp and if she doesnt react to focus fire she can die pretty fast. I would say it'd be good to remove some fall off so this is easier 2. Already sorta low but why not 3. She already has very little mobility, she only gets grappling hook what, like every twelve seconds??? 4. She already has lowish health compared to every other character but sure, 150 it is. 5. Dead character, Literally just play ashe. You ALREADY need pretty good aim to play widow, yeah duh, if a widow doesnt miss your teams gonna get eaten alive. IF. and its probably the biggest if in the game. If cas hits every shot, if soldier hits every shot, you're cooked. Honestly I'd be more afraid of an aimbot cassidy than an aimbot widow.

True. In Overwatch it’s a lot easier to deal with since you can pick certain heroes who specialise in diving widow.

As someone who hates other hitscan more than Widow (*cough* Ashe *cough*), I do think people forget the reason why Widow has such a strong weapon is cuz her entire kit relies on her gun to do damage. She has the weakest ability in OW2 (Widows mine is literally useless) and her mobility tool only enables her movement. I think Widow one shotting is fine, its just that her charge rate needs nerfed. I also think it should only apply a 3x modifier on max charge. Tbh, hitscans in general (except Sojourn and 76) have too fast of fire rates.

She was turned from a niche hero with very different and interesting play style into Tracer 2.0, way easier and more effective, played by everyone and hated by everyone. Now they reworked her again into a worse version of Soldier 76. Widow must remain untouched. Players are going to complain no matter what and they'll just switch to bitching about the next hero.
