Your Overwatch

You are given full, executive control of balancing for Blizzard's Overwatch.
What changes would you make to make the game balanced without removing the uniqueness of each hero?
You are allowed to remove one hero from the game entirely but must replace it with a new idea of the same class (you remove 76, you need a new dps, etc.)

the supports need to be reworked in alll honestly. whenever i look at the support choices, its just awful. no point in picking anyone else BUT mercy.

>Junkrat takes damage from his own mine
>Junkrat's mines have a slight delay until they can be detonated
>decrease the arc of Junkrat's bombs but increase the damage of a direct hit

>Scatter Arrow now stuns instead of instakilling
>Sombra's gun does more damage
>Pharah can move a bit during Barrage
>Decrease the range of Sym's gun tracking
Lots of other small tweaks but the biggest thing would have to be that all other Healers get some kind of new bonus because as it stands there's almost no reason to run anything but Mercy.

>>Junkrat takes damage from his own mine
lol ridiculous
>>Junkrat's mines have a slight delay until they can be detonated
lol ridiculous
>>decrease the arc of Junkrat's bombs but increase the damage of a direct hit
bro i bet you get BTFO by junkrat all the time

Give Phara's missiles a damage boost. Thats it really, not that big a boost.

Longer suspensions for toxic behaviour like saying "gg"
Real time stat monitoring to stop people "maining" - warnings if they play a disproportionate amount if one hero over the others

I figured out how to deal with him but his design is atrocious.
Actually, just fuck Junkrat. Remove him and replace him with Demoman.

>look mom im b8ing
ftfy

>stop players from playing a character they like

Double Roadhogs health, double his hook length, increase his guns firing speed, increase his guns damage, make him invincible during his ult, reduce both his cooldowns, take a breather now full heals and he can attack during it, undo the hook nerfs.

I think that pretty well balances the game.

it's perfect like this

>Mercy has a 10% chance of instantly dying each time she uses res.
>When ana uses nanoboost on lucio, lucio's weapon projectiles are 10000% faster (becomes hitscan also acceptable)
>Hanzo gains 10% move speed per consecutive nonscatter headshot. Stacks up to 10 times.
>Sombra disguises as the first person she kills after using EMP while the effect is still active. Nothing unusual appears in kill feed. Disguise lasts until that person respawns, or she deals or takes damage.
>Dwarf does 75 dmg with hammer, super slow swing timer. Swing timer is at 0 when you switch to it, so you can shoot and swing once instantly. Turret repair/upgrade per swing changed to keep at status quo.
>Orissa's weapon bloom is like soldier's, half clip size. Her e does token 25 damage.
>When reinhardt charges and collides with something before max charge distance is reached, the game pauses for all players and reinhardt receives a response prompt "Did you mean to collide with this object? Y/N" If yes, the game resumes normally. If no, the game rewinds to the beginning of rein's charge.
>Zarya gets a skin where she has long hair.
>Zenyatta's healing and discord orbs are projectiles he has to aim and hit like his normal attack. They no longer have line of sight restrictions and they last for a minute or until another target is hit. Discord does damage like a normal attack when it lands on a new target.
>Bastion gains bonus damage over time the longer he is in turret form. It resets when he exits turret form. His ultimate ability just grants mobility to his turret form for the duration.

but for real i am happy with blizzard's balancing it is good. except for the lucio ana interaction, which im totally serious about.

>that Zarya change
Neck yourself

whats wrong, hamplanet?

Make pharmercy canon

>remove ultimates
>remove infinite ammo, add ammo pickups to maps
>make every character a male

>You are given full, executive control of balancing for Blizzard's Overwatch. What changes would you make to make the game balanced without removing the uniqueness of each hero?

The answer is: I won't you stupid faggot, and keep it just the way it is. It's a genius business strategy that will not only make me favorable with my superiors, but bring in a lot of money to Blizzard as a company.

>A bunch of people start complaining about a character and how unbalance it is on the forums.
>Pretend to listen to the player's complaints and make promises to fix the issues on the next update to boost player morale.
>Every time a new update is made, it brings people back to see the new changes, and every returning player means more complete and utter retards spending money on lootcrates.
>In buffing one character, another gets broken/nerfed due to it no longer having the strengths to defeat that character defeating it's purpose making them useless, and the game is broken once again.

Blizzard has been doing this for years with WoW.

>Add an ammo cap and ammo spawns around the map
Fixed

thanks for your input and explaining this to us brainlets user, we didn't know this already................


its a thread to discuss what different people feel would be ideal gameplay outside of shilling practices you mongoloid

revert the roster to very early beta, add doomfist, either lucio or ana, and balance accordingly

also, this , it's delusional at this point to think blizzard is not doing it on purpouse

>Mercy has a 10% chance of instantly dying each time she uses res.
honestly kek'd

Dump D.Va entirely
Make it so ULTS generate at a far far slower rate, meaning that if you use one to take the first point of a map its not going to be available to take the second. Its a one per game thing now better make the fucker count. No longer will games be won from Bronze to Top 500 by walking onto the point in Overtime and the entire team hitting Q at the sametime.
Dumpster Barriers, Dumpster Genji reflect, make it so Doomfists punch works akin to Genji Dash but it does less damage, oh look now you don't have to reserve two of his abilities just to get the fuck out after killing one person.

I have no idea what so ever in how to balance Widow so shes not countered by more or less the entire cast.

I have no idea how to re-work Mercy into something thats actually fun to play as or against, we have already removed D.Va.

Increase footspeed across the board, lower cooldowns on loads of traversal skills, or outright just make them constantly usable.

Remove the damage capability of the mine, so no longer can you just shift right click people in the face.

Give him a sticky launcher instead and have his trap have an actual fucking purpose.

Make REAPositioning work. Make the Widow grapple work. Make Wall Climbing work.

FIX ALL THE BROKEN SHIT THAT HAS NEVER WORKED.

Non-registering shots are still a constant thing, Being hooked/Killed out of an Ice block and it leaving fucking ice on the ground because fuck you.

Buffing sombra, you are in bronze aren't you?

Just make everyone 25% faster and give people more momentum

surprised they had 2 snipers in the original roster, They shouldn't even be in the game.
