[QUOTE=Dragadur;50844074]My biggest issue with Genji is that he's difficult to hit. It doesn't help that he flips during his double jump and that his dash is basically Tracer's blink only it can go everywhere.[/QUOTE]
I think that's what makes most good Genji players good, that they are impossible to hit.
And the fact that their ult seems to be up almost all the time
I just switch to Winston when I see Genji now, just make his life hell and your ult fucks with him a lot if your team groups just hold M1 and slap him away
[QUOTE=Grandzeit;50844078]I'd just wish his deflect didn't melee attacks. Seems a bit unnecessary to me.[/QUOTE]
It's like, oh hey what's that, you want to punch this walking trashcan waving his sword around like he's have a stroke? too bad, blocked

I do that too sometimes. But it always fails because my enemies understands the concept of "If you all focus on one target they will die faster"

Genji's ult [I]is[/I] on all the time.
He has very fast ult charging. As a Genji main, I myself think it's ridiculous - you get almost 1%/s (you can die and get 8% charge by the time you respawn).
This combined with the fact that I can easily farm ult - "are there three people near each other? Gotta swift strike through them to get free 150 damage lol" - means I have it very often.
I mean it's not as crazy as Reaper's ult rate but it's way too fast.

I mean I once had a reaper with his ult ready 20 seconds after the start of the game.

If you play Winston defensively and use him to peel for squishes rather than jumping at the Genji I generally get that job done without dying. Discord genji vs winstons gun takes like 2 seconds to kill

I know it's probably late but when Symmetra ever says "The cake is not a lie"? Is it just an unused voice line?
Competitive is shit
Wait Pharah is trash? Wow, I guess I have to learn something else.
She gets shit on by everyone that's commonly played right now which makes her bad, she still does really well when people dont have a hardon for shooting her out of the air

Phara is at her weakest during her ult
Greatly exposed, stationery, often already injured.
It would be awesome if she could move during it, or if the missiles where more consentrated.

One of the most annoying things some Genji players do is sit up high/far away spamming shurikens in the general direction of the enemy until their ult is charged at which point they wipe the whole team.
If you only play a hero for their ult what is even the point.

Yeah her ult line these days is usually "JUSTICE RAINS-UGHH"
Don't feel bad, I got the same Zarya legendary five times, three of which were back to back
[QUOTE=FezianEmperor;50844166]Wait Pharah is trash? Wow, I guess I have to learn something else.[/QUOTE]
She was hit hardest by the recent meta of Godyatta & McCree. She cant even be in the air without being swatted down like a fly.
And if you stay on the ground, you might as well just play Junkrat.
Man, I'm just completely clueless on what I should play in this game :c

Depends on your playstyle

If you're playing casually just go anyone, in quickplay its not so bad
but in terms of competetive heroes I'd follow the weekly reports.
Current meta states that:
Offense Heroes:
McCree
Genji
Reaper
Tracer
Defense heroes:
Junkrat
Tank heroes:
Zarya
Winston
Reinhardt
D.Va
Support:
Lucio
Zenyatta
Rest have some crippling problem currently. Again this is competitively, casually feel free to just fuck around with who you like the most.
I don't care about the meta. I play what is fun and effective, and if what I'm playing at the current moment isn't fun or isn't effective, I switch.
[QUOTE=Grandzeit;50844078]I'd just wish his deflect didn't melee attacks. Seems a bit unnecessary to me.[/QUOTE]
Melee attacks and hooks. Roadhog can be a very good counter to him if they eliminated that.
Genji is very balanced, he has to get close to reliably hit shurikens and his sustained damage is ass
Once he double jumps he has little control until he hits the ground and is easy to hit, punish them for double jumping a lot

Report to the watch point, we'll bang okay?

Are you playing 5 year olds?
I've been attacked by genjis from halfway across a map
They double jump onto higher levels and then go for long range attacks, their dash attack is a huge pain in the ass.
I really have to work to freeze a genji because even a competent one will just dash away or jump.

I don't think there's much mei can do against genji just dashing away.
200 gold for duplicate legendary... really? :suicide:

I disagree, if a Genji is double jumping, more often than not you can't hit him because his flip fucks up the hitbox. Add onto that the wall climb and dash and he becomes extremely hard to hit or chase down.
[QUOTE=Oizen;50844430]I don't think there's much mei can do against genji just dashing away.[/QUOTE]
That's my point, I can either try to hit him with an icicle which almost never hits or put up a wall before he can get to far away.

No, I'm playing against SR 70-80 players
You can avoid the shurikens at long range, they're quite slow
Mei is bottom tier so it's useless to base balance on her

I think the real issue is you're fighting sniper genjis, which are not good genjis.
And basing an entire argument around Sniper genjis.
