I've won so many 1 vs 1 with zen outside of tracer Genji I have no issues dealing with anyone else really .
The best are the over zealous reins who swing like mad keep missing and get stomped on lol

So pretty much Winston + orisa/zarya?
This Winston buff is also really dumb in how overpowered it is.

I want these changes in yesterday. Can't wait.
Kind of had to do it if they allowed Orisa to do the same
Probably just Winston genji tracer pharah/sombra/zarya.

Different functions though. Winston being able to reengage more often is a scary proposition.
Also can you imagine how stupid good orisa's mini graviton is with the winston jump + genji dash combo?

Impressions:
Ana nerfs seem pretty fair tbh. She'll probably be in more in line with Zen (as we currently know him anyways) and will be far from ass.
Junkrat: slight buff to team fighting but I don't see this changing anything significant about him.
Orisa: Dude I don't know she don't exist yet.
Sombra: Nice stuff. Not going to change much I think but it's p nice. I already have a decent opinion of her. I think these are more to get people playing her than to actually buff her. QoL changes.
Winston: He might be a lord god again. Y'all gonna learn real quick why I've said this is a really powerful change. Regardless of how much stronger he will be, meta might still not favor him. With the Zen change though, that's unlikely to be the case and you'll see lord god Winston almost every match.
Zen: lmao Season 1 let's gooooooo. Shit is mad busted.

Pretty interesting read on team fights.
Stats on who's death impacts the team fight the most and value of ults. Haven't read it all yet so not sure if accurate but seems good.

Really pleased with the Sombra, Zen and Winston Buffs. Bummer about Ana tho. Funny enough these are the characters I use a bunch, hope these changes go live this week.
Double post, but APEX is starting: https://www.twitch.tv/ognglobal
Lunatic Hai vs Runaway first. Winner is out of quarters and into top 4 finals. Korean analysts are favoring Runaway, but Lunatic Hai is the more established team. Should be mad close.
Second match is Envy bs KD Uncia. Loser goes home.

I think winston gets bubble every 8sec now damn naisuu
Sombra and Winston's changes are totally aimed at killing their downtime off.
Ana deserved that nerfbat.

Wtf @ those Ana changes lmao
And you just know they'll make it out, too
Who looked at Ana and decided that survivability, not healing output, was her issue

Really going to dislike those Ana changes when I am stuck as the only counter to Pharah ;_; but it does sound like they are evening out the playing field for healer choices, please give Mercy a buff though.

Time to make the Ana Challenge over on blizzard forums
Dva mains who said it was only because of Ana making Dva strong will have another reason to ask for Dva buffs.

"NO DON'T SHAKE Kox"

I always thought Winston should have gotten 4 secs off his bubble. It's just that Winston can be so scary. With this change we might see a resurgence of Reapers.
And I now think I might main Winston for a bit.

Damn, miro still need to polish his rein skills. 100% lost the rein battle at the end there.

Casters not realising esca was saving tactvisor to counter haksal's blade feelsbadman.

I wonder what these Korean girls and that 1 Korean guy is shouting at the beginning of each match
Tbf he could have blown it for a cleaner fight and built it up again. I agree they were a bit hard on it cause LH were clearly wanting to keep the threat of that, but it is true Esca's positioning wasn't conservative enough for that.
Each time he yells he's counting down to cheering for a team. Then he does for the other team. The team with the most fangirls gets the biggest cheer :3

They've been weirdly hard on esca. Like, that fast push on route 66 was mostly whoru whiffing hard on roadhog but they just focused on esca.
When they said watching his Widow was painful. Ouch.
I like these changes
With ana damage reduction, is this a "buff" to pharah?
Inderectly. Then again, Zen usage increases so she'll get discorded. Hard to say.
Blasphemer.

But they don't comment how miro is losing to kaiser every single time when he's on rein.
He's been in meta the entire life time of the game except for like a month or so early on.

Yea especially since Winston and orisa and rein all have barriers and will be played a lot. The Ana nerf is finally happening yay now she won't be a required pick anymore
Double standards. It's easy to bash on Esca since he's probably their weakest player. Miro is a Winston god he seems to get a pass. Like his ult just now on route 66 was just mentioned in passing that he missed it and that was it.
Unbelievable. Was a mercy and had a team with 4 damage dealers and they just could not get past Reinhardt. Four dps characters. They should tear throught that shield in seconds? Why do my teammates have to suck so bad today. I guess I've won too much lately and now the matchmaking forces me to lose.
