An ability/hero that messes with enemies intake on audio information is actually a really brilliant mechanic because audio is SUCH a huge part of game sense in overwatch, its an anti game sense mechanic which I dont think ive seen in another shooter yet as opposed to a mechanic defense/debuff. Jesus I hope this gets a crap ton of upvotes so a dev looks at it.

I like the idea of a sub forum like this but it would come with the inherent implication that the team will ever use anyones suggestions.I mean im not saying theyre not READING things but every alteration to every character that has been changed has been designed and decided upon by the internal team with (as far as they have ever felt the need to tell us) no indication anyones suggestions had been used at all.Roadhog fix wasnt at our behest, 50% damage reduction and move while healing. We didnt ask for micromissles. Where the hell did valkerie come from? No one suggested those things here. I'…

I am the master pig, oink oink you hooked too early

I think a small nerf to damage is probably in the works, because her damage is so good and reliable that persons use her more for damage than they do for healing- like a dive flanker instead of a support. Which I think is fine in some cases within each individual game but its more optimal to attack than keep your team up if there is literally any other healer working alongside you.Remember when they nerfed soldiers damage by one (1) point and it fixed the Mcree and Soldier damage war? Yeah I imagine something as small as that.However thats just what I would do, and i'm no blizzard dev. If you …

02/09/2018 10:18 PMPosted by DarkFoxi made a post about this earlier but it was so long that i guess my thing timed out but an idea i had was he uses his R to scan or copy another hero either ally or enemy and then his shift or E would do something based on the hero copied with a 20 second cooldown and most of them would bounce 3 times or till it hit a target ex: Sombra would make a hack arrow...or Junkrat would make a cluster bomb spread kinda thing Soldier would make a biotic fieldholy **** i love this idea

Also on the note of ideas, in line with your piercing arrow (because im a fan of giving him MULTIPLE utility arrows) why not give him some kind of emp arrow that specifically does a lot of damage to reinhardt/winston/orisa shields. The only problem with this would be of course theres already a TON of shield breaking potential in the game so it might lead to strategies of doubling up on shields to compensate.Additionally why not give him some arrows thatll melt armor health and blue shield health respectively, cause Hanzo to be more proactive in picking targets and contribute to a team fight.

I actually think he's in a really good spot - has 1 shot left click potential, counterable ult, does decent against shield comps, gives info with sonar arrow, extremely mobile. Maybe a slight nerf to his scatter arrow to make it less effective against shields and a slight buff to his ult so he doesn't need to combo it with someone else, or so that it isn't completely outhealed by…

I have a fair amount of time on all the tanks and as reaper and I can say pretty confidentally that reaper has a good solid place in this game at the time, and thats with his team. A poster above mentioned reaper doesnt engage at the same time as his team when he's flanking but that's because reaper really shouldnt be "flanking" the same way a tracer and genji does. He should be with the heart of his team most of them time and occasionally backing away from the front lines to teleport to higher ground and drop down ontop of a team fight already happening. He is an excellent duelist but not alw…
