[QUOTE=PopSkimo;50904269]zarya needs to be looked at, she does way too much. shielding herself and team members, doing massive damage, bypassing other tanks defenses, massive AoE ult.
And the whole excuse of "just don't shoot the shield!!" is stupid as hell. Don't mind me, just casually damaging any enemy and having a random shield pop up. Don't mind me, just casually shooting zarya and having her random shield pop up. There's nothing you can do about it outside of swapping targets (if there's anyone else nearby) or running but then you just get shot in the back.
What an absolutely obnoxious set of abilities.[/QUOTE]
You're really damned if you do, damned if you don't fighting Zarya.
And she's been doing nothing but rising in the comp meta, and people are still telling me she's balanced.
Really surprised to see no symmetra changes.
I wouldn't mind if her turrets resisted splash damage. Seems like a good majority of times it's a flashbang or rocket or zarya ball that takes it out. Wouldn't mind a good direct hit to actually be able to destroy it
Everyone has gold now, we need platinum and diamond encrusted weapons
Don't remember if these were posted yet

I have a idea, give Zarya a pulse rifle.
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50904560]I haven't heard any nerf suggestions yet, and I'm curious to see how people would nerf her without absolutely killing her usage like pharah[/QUOTE]
Make a specific weapon type completely ignore her shield so theres a safe way to get around her?
Make it so stun effects still work entirely on her shield?
Right now she either gets insanely powerful or grants people 2 seconds of god mode in the meta.
Also I don't have a gold weapon because I didn't play that much comp and only had a high of 59 (almost 60) before plummeting to 56
Ended up getting demoralized and giving up the dream
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50904605]What weapons would pierce her shield? Symettra, that'd be fair, but I can't think of any other beam-like weapons.[/QUOTE]
Winston and Mei's weapons?
Not sure if the shield not blocking stuns is a great idea tho.
[QUOTE=Altimor;50904573]Everyone has gold now, we need platinum and diamond encrusted weapons[/QUOTE]
I can see them giving the players the option to upgrade their gold weapon to diamond with credits and be able to pick which style they use.

That's what pisses me off the most about her, is that even if Blizzard wanted to nerf her there's no way of doing so without it kind of fucking her over. It's either do nothing or give her the biggest nerf hammer ever seen
The competitive season coming to an end has reminded me how much I hate what Quickplay has become.
Honestly wouldn't mind if they just replaced it with a casual mode a la TF2.
My Mei playtime has went from one of my least played heroes to my most played hero all because of D.va and Genji. :v:
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50904605]She's a hard counter to DVA, which is greatly needed at the moment.

One on the right needs the counter alright.
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50904605]
As for stun effects, I don't think it should go through the shield if it doesn't go through Reinhardt's.[/QUOTE]
If reinhardt could swing his hammer and use his flamestrike while the shield was up, that be a different story.
But the fact of the matter is, he cant. And his shield isnt even fully immune to stun effects. McCree hard counters him.
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50904635]I think it should follow the same rules as Reinhardt's shield.
I know Winston's goes through his shield, but does Mei's?[/QUOTE]
Nah, but I mean she needs more than Winston being her one potential counter.
Zarya's great and I love her kit, but I think Blizzard needs to handle her very carefully because it's too easy to just completely ruin her. Make her shields less effective and she's practically worthless outside of her ult. The problem isn't so much what she's capable of doing, it's the fact that nobody really hard counters her.
And as I said a few weeks ago, after the genji tears dried, the sleeper op'so would be next. Tracer or Zarya
I'm glad the nerf D.va got wasn't too hard, even though she didn't need one.
Just found this.

Her eyes looks soulless and empty, like a doll's eyes. Creeps me out.

Even if it is situational Bastion is really good at countering her by just chewing through her shield and ending her before she can cause any harm with the 50 energy you just gave her
Risky but I've pulled it off quite a bit
There's also just the idea of, you know, not shooting her and waiting for her shield to go on its ten second cooldown

She shields a flank
The flank is attacking your support
what do you do?
Zarya wouldn't be too bad if her shield didn't block Winston/mei
[QUOTE=redBadger;50904742]Zarya wouldn't be too bad if her shield didn't block Winston/mei[/QUOTE]
Yeah if there was a change to her I could accept readily it'd be making Winston and Symmetra's weapons going through her shield like they do Rein's.
Mei's doesn't go through Rein's but it could work.

this filter really backfired
now instead of seeing a small "gg ez" we have to see long passive aggressive sentences being spammed in the chat
RIP Genji
Now I will have to play Tracer

The gold weapon on 76's golden skin looks fucking sick.
He's still playable. They better put triple jump back in though
So I just learned that apparently instead of making Lone Wolf and Okami use the "wolf hunts for its prey" lines 100% of the time rather than the Japanese variant, they're just going to have him scream about dragons. Despite being in wolf fursuits. Okay Blizzard.
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50904779]
D.Va can prevent Hanzo's, Mei's, McCree's, Soldier's, Bastian's, and Roadhog's ult with a right click[/QUOTE]
Besides Hanzo, so can Reinhardt. Even then, D.va can only stop Hanzo's if she uses it on the initial arrow.
