Both Tracer & Reaper are perfectly balanced, to be honest. Same goes with Reinhardt.

I feel like Reaper would be better if we didn't have Reaper 76 tbh
Soldier 76, Symmetra, & D.Va need a small readjustment, which I'm sure they will get in the not too distant future.
It's hard to believe things were much more balanced in Season 2.

What an incredible Christmas gift this was...
Ended up at 2648 last season, so this time my goal was to get to Diamond, and I was able to make it in less than a 100 matches (89 to be prescise), and while playing in solo queue only
Now I can play whoever I want without giving a fuck about team comps for the rest of the season
J/k
Oh, and Merry Christmas to you all.

Reaper was perfect. Now he's a bit ass tbh. And Tracer has a tough time dealing with the healed tank meta but at least still has a place in the game. Closer to a buff than a nerf.
Reaper is also hurt by how good Dva is. She basically just nullifies anything he does.

true although i feel like it has always been fun eating his ult with dm

D.Va shuts down almost any work a Reaper tries to do so easily I've had them give up and go Zarya. Try to gank my healer, will you? Here, DM, your shots do nothing and my team will kill you now.
Reaper was the most balanced and fair character in the game. You get what you see with him but now Soldier is just Reaper with range and a healing station. Reaper needs a significant buff or you balance some of the heroes so he actually has a warranted role on your team.
Did everyone forget beyblade from Season 2?
Beyblade is a little more dealable than Nano 76
Reaper is actually still relatively balanced even with Soldier existing. I've already talked about it, but Soldier isn't all that imbalanced.
I highly disagree lol

i'm still using happy halloween tho
I had someone tell me to stop spamming Lucio's Happy Holidays. What a grinch. I followed him around the entire match and spammed it in his face.
I stop using voice lines when the actual game starts, but I made a special exception in that case.

Just a daily reminder that every Arcade Mode is fucking awful.
It's more likely that the overbuffed heroes and Ana are going to get readjustments, so that it will make 90% of the cast viable again.
Well, more balanced in the sense you would see more interesting compositions (Ana and Zenyatta is a fun healing duo, and not one I saw too often in Season 2). Now, it's just 8 characters for Season 3.

Blizz only need to nerf Soldier and everything will be fine. He is just too much now.
Lol. Thinking about having to win 9 games for 3 loot boxes in next few days makes me feel depressed.

Those loot boxes suck you in
I also think today is the last day before they reset for the next three so I had to get my final loot box done in three games. Fuck me was it a chore.
and DVa

no, maybe tune dva. definitely hit ana hard with a nerf. soldiers alright. though i would like either a mccree buff or soldier get balanced around mccree.
McCree buff would only make Reaper and Winston even worse.
Ana's grenade is what needs a nerf; not the character as a whole.

Make it 50% healing buff, instead of 100%.

Congrats! That's my goal, but I went from 2600 to 2450 overnight lmao. I will make it though.
Don't mind me I just may have forgotten to drop a friend a request until now >.>
That wouldn't fix much. still would make her outheal most burst damage which is bad for the game. Back when the best healer was healing for 50 hps a sec the game was a LOT healthier. Even a 50% buff added to instant 100 healing makes healing too strong. I think the healing buff was a mistake full stop.

Hah no worries! About to logon in a bit.
They don't want to commit the same mistakes they did with Ana.

I don't see what's the problem with Ana?? She is fine.
More damage please
She went from being perceived as weak to meta-defining.
Though Jeff said its because people hadn't figured her out and then they buffed her and she was too strong. To which I say, no it's not because they figured her out. It's because you gave her a ridiculous buff
I haven't played with a Sombra in over several dozen games. They don't do a very good job justifying her as a pick over other more effective DPS characters, she's too niche.
Ana's a beast.

Did a recent update make the game more taxing to run? I have a lower spec system but was able to play with custom high settings with some low/medium settings mixed in. Never dropped below Low 40s even during big firefights. Now even on medium I get big drops as low as 30.
It's frustrating as hell.

EMP is really great for baiting your own entire team into a team wipe.

Tbh I don't want them to nerf Ana because she is pretty much the only healer that you can currently run as a solo healer
No one else comes close to her single target healing and even her group heal is capable if your team is bunched up
If anything they could stop other healers from getting the nade buff but I don't want it to go

Check if your settings got reset? I used to get 200+ FPS then it suddenly went 60 after an update. Turns out that even though it was on low preset the advanced settings were all very high.
And that is exactly why she needs to be nerfed. She shouldn't be that much more efficient than the other healers

It's unfair though that they keep nerfing things that are abused by high level players because it makes things unusable for low level players. Case in point - Lucio's healing is shit now and before he could solo heal which was a godsend in disorganised pub games (ie most of the games of Overwatch that are played). Now he's bad at that because speedboost was too valuable for pros and Blizz hit him with the nerf bat in the wrong place.
