3 Heroes Who DESPREATLY NEED BUFFS / REWORKS (Season 10) | Overwatch Competitive Changes 

God....who would’ve thought that hanzo would be in the meta one day

McRee literally needs armor piercing bullets. 1. Not in game yet 2. Still niche

No .. more .. CC PLEASE!

In my opinion its Mccree, Sombra, and Roadhog. Sombra needs it the most because she can counter Brigitte better than anybody which would balance the game. I’d say making EMP remove armor as well as shields and also buffing her damage slightly would help balance competitive. Edit: also make hack remove Brigitte’s passive healing because its not fair to remove Lucio’s and not hers.

Everyone is asking for DPS buffs when OW has already got massive power creep. Nerfs are absolutely essential to balance the game, but every time they nerf someone there's an outcry about Blizzard nerfing them to the ground.

i sure like playing reaper when everbody has armor

Hey, 400 hr Masters Bastion main here! Here’s the problem with Bastion: his kit doesn’t flow and doesn’t have an effective niche. He’s simply not adaptable enough to be effective in the constantly-changing conditions of an Overwatch match. Here’s a rework concept a ton of Bastion players have been throwing around on the forums and reddit: - Recon now has 5% passive damage resistance - Sentry’s bullet spread reverted to pre-rework state (but no headshots) - Sentry’s rate of fire increased from 30 rps to 35 rps - Tank reworked to E, now does 120 damage per shot and has an ammo “regeneration” mechanic like Doomfist. Maximum 5 rounds, has a crit hitbox on back - Self-repair now gives 5% damage resistance while in use, resource not used while health is full - New ultimate: “Overclock”, buffs all 3 modes, halves transformation times, and gives 100 armor for 8 seconds. Recon gains 30% movement speed buff, Sentry becomes immune to CC, Tank reverted to current state

buff anas firerate slightly!

Talks about how Mcree is dying. Shows clips of Mcree destroying.

I think Bridgette needs a buff too. My rework idea is her shield bash is on a 2 second cool down and instantly DDOS's your router if you're hit with it

Two Words for Torbjorn: Armor Generator. Think about this. Torb places down a pad and it becomes a armor dispenser, like a health pack but for armor. That can open up an interesting dynamic for Sombra, who can hack it.

McCree: Reduce roll to a 3 second cooldown. Change his ultimate to something that gives him no cooldown on roll or fan the hammer and reduce his reload time by half. Ana: Increase her bullet size slightly so it's easier to hit things. Torb: Give him multiple turrets. Make the ability to build turrets depend on scrap. That way, he'll need be part of the battle instead of in the back, hitting a turret that's at full health.

I have a couple ideas for torb... so when he ults, it automatically transform any lvl 1 turrets to lvl 3 (3 from his ult) and lower the cd so he can re-position his turret rlly quickly, and even flank with it to which could work rlly well, also being able to throw down his turret instead of having to spend time placing it down... I would also sorta like to see his armor packs to give more armor and instead of needing scrap just have a cd

Or just remove Brigitte. But blizzard won't admit how much of a mistake she is.

For Bastion, maybe make Ironclad work the opposite way? When he's in Recon, he gets the damage negation bonus, but when he's in Sentry, it goes away. That way when he's in Sentry, he's trading some of his survivability for DPS. It wouldn't really make much sense, since he's like more compact when he's in Sentry, but from a gameplay stance, I think it would work much better. They could also reduce the amount of time Reconfigure takes to transform him, so if he starts to take a bunch of damage, he can quickly switch to Recon for the defensive bonus and mobility.

Bastion doesnt need a rework, him + Brigitte + Mercy + Orisa are the stuff of nightmares and tucked away in the right spot he can make capturing a point IMPOSSIBLE. If anything its Reinhardt and his useless shield that need some fixing.

For mccree, make roll cooldown 6 seconds, allow for it to cancel any ability including melee and allow rolling in the air. Also allow him to cancel the air roll so he can do rollouts like doomfist. Also make flashbang cooldown 8 seconds, and make it do 30 damage instead of 25 so that flashbang to headshot to melee kills a 200 hp squishy. Add an ability that activates with spacebar called phantom chariot that acts as a dva shift except on a 10 second cooldown

I wish Ana's sleep dart could be utilized like Hanzo's arrows - you press shift to 'select' the sleep dart and you can choose to shoot it as a projectile like you normally would or use it to 'snipe'. That way she can help deal with Pharmercys and it would still be a skill shot. For people who are used to her normal sleep dart, maybe there could be a setting that allows you to 'hold shift' to select the sleep dart. When you want to use it to snipe you can hold on to shift then snipe but still am able to just tab it once to use it normally as you would now.

Mccree Ana and Reinhardt Buffs Mccree: 1) Roll cooldown to 6 seconds 2) Flashbang cooldown to 8 seconds 3) New ability called "Lasso" where it's a grapple hook that is a symbol of a rope. It can latch on like Widow's. Have him do a quick 360 swing over his head before it activates like a .25 second, half a second delay (.50 of a second), or .75 of a second. To compensate it's on a 1 to 2 second shorter cooldown than Widow's. (You don't want it to be exactly identical as hers). That's his "get out of jail free card" and it can work well with his alt to get to high ground to either stall or eliminate with it. 4) Movement speed increased when using his alt. Around 40 to 50% speed increase. Ana: 1) Bionade has a 2 to 4 second shorter cooldown or does an additional 100 health (if left as is). 2) A new ability maybe called "Spectre Mode" that gives her invisibility for 4 to 5 seconds (Leaning more towards 5 seconds). Have it on a 11 to 12 second cooldown. She only becomes visible while using it if she bumps into an enemy which only makes her visible for .25 or half a second then it goes back to invisibility, or if she dies while using it. She's completely invisible including her weapon and any animation her weapons make. You only hear the noise of the weapon. She moves 20% - 40% faster while using it. That's her "get out of jail free card". If she's being shot at while using it you'll only see the impact animation of the bullet, missile, etc, and you only hear her character groan. 3) when she nanoboosts a teammate she immediately gets full health and a 30% damage reduction dealt to her while the duration of the nanoboost. If she's already at full health then no additional health is applied. That way her survival rate is higher and you can follow up by healing the teammate you nanoboosted. Reinhardt: 1) New Passive (not sure on the name): When his shield is up he cannot be stunned, booped, and knocked around or back). That is only when his shield is up. All damage done to him and the shield is applied normally. It's like a different version of fortify but a passive version. So for example, Brigette cannot stun him, Lucio cannot boop him, Junkrat cannot knock him around with his mines. All the damage they deal though is normal. Orisa's mini graviton is questionable lol. Another Reinhardt charge will affect him as normal. 2) A new active ability (a crowd control ability) when he has his shield up he can shield bash like Brigette EXCEPT it's NOT a stun BUT it's a pushback or a boop. Have it on a 6 second cooldown. The damage isn't high because it's meant to be used to pushback who ever (enemy) is near him but have it around 30 damage.

Recon bastion buff idea: Every 2 shots landed on an enemy generates 1 ammo. So if your good at hitting shots, your clip lasts longer to do more consistent dps.

I think the problem with Bastion is that Sentry is simply a better instead of just a different damage dealing form than Recon. So all of his gameplay revolves around trying to get away with being in Sentry as often as possible. My idea for this has been to give Sentry a spray that is so bad that it's basically unusable at medium range. So then the specific purpose of Sentry is to shred large stationary shields, since the spray is not a drawback against those. Then we can buff Recon, treat it as the primary form, give it new abilities, etc.

Doom fist needs slight tweaking. Maybe more shields per attack? Faster charge up time? Decrease his wall splat damage, but increase his impact punch to make him more consistent without wall. Nothing too drastic but these would definitely help him.

Bastion is mostly a situational pick. He's only supposed to choke points on defense. Imagine if he had actual tank stats- nobody would be happy except the Bastion player

WINSTON. He's unplayable when the most played supports can dominate/ignore him. He can't do his job with the ammount of armor/healing you have in the game right now.

I mean, maybe you could give Tracer back her 400 damage bomb... It's hardly going to make her meta while Brigitte is around, but most people accept it was a stupid nerf that severely hurt her potential to make plays. Just keep in mind , Junkrat's ult does 600, with 4x the explosive radius, and can be driven in such a way to avoid it being shot. Oh, and it charges as fast as Tracer's, and he's currently meta. Yeah, give us 400 damage bomb back so we can remov Zaryas again or at least kill discorded tanks/ get more multikills on grouped enemies. It would at elast free the meta a little more as Hanzo/Zarya is the only way to play right now and Tracer used to delete Zarya.

I would argue bastion got unintentionally buffed enough when they nerfed tracer's pulse bomb

Small buff that could help McCree: make bullets pierce the armour of flashed targets debuff style. Making all shots pierce armour would be way too strong, and making headshots only do the same would be amazing for higher skilled players who land them consistently but wouldn’t be great across the board, probably would still be too big of a buff too.

No Sombra.... clearly not well thought out list.

Ana - remove fire rate penalty when quickscoping to match fire rate of when unscoped.

Here's a simple idea to buff McCree that would make him more flexible and compensate for his lack of flexibility in other areas, while (probably) not OP among the pros. McCree is quite restricted by his small clip size especially since he has many other drawbacks. Some other commenters suggest simply giving him 2 or 4 extra shots per clip, but that doesn't work very well thematically (he has a six shooter, like almost every cowboy in a Western) and is quite dull and unoriginal in gameplay terms. But why not just give him a super short reload? Rather than seeing him reload like you do now, he just pulls his gun off screen, you hear that "click" reload sound that plays during his combat roll, and then his gun's back on screen, and the whole thing just takes, say, 0.6 seconds (his current reload time is 1.5 seconds). The exact amount of time can be debated, it could be 0.7 or 0.5, but the point is to make it much shorter than his current reload time. This would make a lot of sense since he reloads super quickly during his roll (roll lasts 0.5 seconds), it would just be extending that fast reload to non-roll reloads too. For this to work properly, there would need to be a small cooldown on Fan the Hammer of like 2 or 3 seconds just to stop constant spamming of it into shields and tanks. His combat roll could have the additional effect of resetting the Fan cooldown so the Fan > roll > Fan combo could still be used.

Uhh pharah with increase rocket speed by 5 percent and 10 or less percent more fuel And roadhog #bringHimBack

I think Mcree should just have armor piercing rounds. All of them. Not shields, just armor, and when your hp drops to 0, you're dead. Even if you have 50 armor. I think that's a good way for him to be relevant with the Brigette meta. A good counter pick when enemies have too much armor

I think a good idea for bastion could be, only in his recon form he can shoot and heal at the same time, also they should make his head (and head hitbox) smaller and make most of his health in recon form armor...

Either they reduce the cooldowns on his kit (which is actually a huge buff and still would not make him broken) or keep the old cooldowns but make him immortal while rolling

No idea if you know yet, but the Torb rework had already been confirmed a few months back. Iirc it was said that after Symmetra has her rework, Torb will be next.

I feel like they should make Torbjorn himself the turret. Like, maybe he carries it on his back like a backpack and as he collects scrap he no longer makes armor (there's way too much armor in the game now between Sym and Brig) he builds his turret automatically. It'd free him up to actually be like shooting people and make the turret a bit more interesting because it'd be mobile without overpowering him by giving him two turrets.

Torb needs a rework like Reaper got. Each damage adds to his resources. Not a drop. Just added on. Remember soul orbs were just like the scrap drops. Bastion just needs a little speed. Either in transform or in running. Maybe like a Mc Cree roll But only for one sec at a time with a four sec cool down. Mc Cree needs a scatter shot reduction by about 10%. Maybe a double roll.

Bastion is extremely OP in bronze and silver and buffing him makes the experience suck for the players stuck in these ranks.

Just remove fan the hammer... it’s a skewed ability... cheesy at low under powered at high.... replace it with a lasso ability

Mccree is a very powerful hero. He is great where he is. You just need some good aim. Thats the only issue. That and he cant fight shields. Sometimes heroes have to wait for the meta to change to be relevant again. Thats natural. Ana needs a buff to compete with the healers with better survivability for sure. And bastion is a strong character that struggles when a team fight him together. Genji is a hard counter to him. Bastion is only OP at low levels and low ranks that have no clue how to handle him. I dont see many bastions right now for a reason :)

Mccree needs a new ult. Trickshot. The ult begins where he tosses a coin, then pops a kill shot but it only targets one enemy preferably an enemy that's closest to him, and can't be reflected by Genji's reflect damage ability as the shot would go behind him.

Just give mcree an ability called "golden mag" which makes his shots do 0.4 extra damage for 4 second or pierce shields . Also decrease the cooldown for his roll or allow him to have roll variation for example holding jump and rolling could make him do a dive roll which goes farther than his standard roll to allow him to get out of stick situations

There is no tripple support meta.Briggitte is not a support.She's deffense DPS that throws you armor every 6 seconds.

Make McCree have aromor piercing rounds. Simple. Lol you just stated that haha. Glad you read the comments from older videos. We've had these discussions in your older videos

A really nice thing that blizzard needs to add is a secondary fire for Winston.

that berzerker thing u were talking about is literally his ult, more health, faster fire rate.....

Considering Storm Arrows now is a better version of Fan the Hammer then, Blizzard may as well increase McCree's damage to 70 per bullet and put a ~8 second cooldown on it so it can't be abused with Fan -> Roll -> Fan. Of course that might just be an argument for how stupidly overpowered Storm Arrows is right now too.

I kind of think Mcree's issue right now is that Hanzo now does what he does... Just a better.

Mccree buff - tap button flash bang. Hold button for longer flash bang

How to buff Mccree. Either raise his stun time or lower the CD. I only consider this because characters like Brigette who have a longer stun, a better stun and a stun on a lower cooldown. Raise his damage. In the past supports like Ana did more DPS then him. He shouldn't be doing 75 damage a hit. His range also shouldn't be as low as it is. Not the infinite range he had but not as short as it is now.

For Torb, they could place his moltencore ultimate to an ability, that last shorter, don't get a buff of armor, immune him to CC and buff a bit less the armor of the Lv.3 turret. This ability could have a 15 sec or 20 cooldown, and he could get a new ultimate

I feel if mccree has two shorter rolls but had more distance than one roll, he would be pretty balanced, because then he would have a better chance at getting out of the battle field

McCree is perfectly balanced. The current meta is just entirely fucked up right now.

McCree needs a buff for years now. But you can be god damn sure they ain't gonna buff him. Just look at torbjorn : he as been useless since the start of the game. Blizzard Activision balance team is terrible and we shouldn't expect anything of em

Mcree should get armor piercing bullets. That would give him some interesting utility.

I have no idea for torb but the other 2 don’t need a lot. I think bastion might accomplish what you want by taking no critical hit damage while in recon. Nothing says tanky like always only taking normal damage. For Mccree, i like the idea of restoring some of his damage to balance better with hanzo. He has no where near the maneuverability and right now can’t deal as much damage. I also think his diveroll should provide invulnerability to certain attacks during it’s motion. I think he should be able to not be damaged by explosions or latched onto by locking attacks or abilities. It’s only for a split second so I don’t see how it could be too powerful, but it will make the roll a little more useful.

This is why games are going down hill. Because people literally spend all their gaming timing thinking of how their favorite character needs a rework. Meanwhile, the game companies get lazy, because all they have to do is buff and nerf characters every couple months. Halo3 gave me crazy amounts of hours of fun online.... Didn't need a single buff or need to anything. Now, people literally live their game life whining until they get a buff And as a former fighting game player, overwatch is extremely fun. And honestly, most of the buffs and nerfs people want are based on high level play, something most of the community will never achieve

if orisa in a fortfied state, acts as a wall for a enemy reinhart to pin an ally with. Why isnt she treated as a wall to protect allies directly behind her from an enemy reinharts earthshatter?

I feel micree is the most balanced hero in the game. And others should be brought down to his level. Highs kill hero's should be king, that's the only way to continue with a healthy competitive community. Something Blizzard is failing to diliver.

...You want Mccree to ignore armor? Are you aware that’s 5 extra damage per shot? What’s that going to do?

Tbh McCree needs a better get out of jail card then his roll. The roll only allows a small dodge and instant reload which is okay but if we had some buff to the roll or some way for McCree to get away from enemies maybe he can be better

The only thing I would change about McCree is the damage falloff, which is to high.

Reinhardt was never touched, he definitely needs a small buff. Fixing his ultimate, I use his ultimate and most of the times it clearly lands on the enemy but they don't get stunned

"Let's buff everyone" "But mccree, yeah f*** that guy" - Blizzard

Widowmaker for sure: completely countered by a shield.

Mcree is the only hero with ultimate every 8sec. He needs a nerf not a BUFF. If the flashbang is getting removed, fine buff him. Fine with Bastion and Torb just buff them.

Mcrees ult desperately needs shield piercing. Brigitte needs to do less dps or maybe have less health so that she can’t just obliterate most enemies Torb could be made more interesting by just giving him another ability to make him stand out more It’d be nice if a failed attempt to ressurect a hero didn’t put the ability on cool down. Either that or make it so that it can only be interrupted by killing the mercy and not stunning her with a hook, shield bash or flashbang. And most of all REWORK JUNKRATS ULT. CHANGING THE SPEED DOESNT WORK. IT NEEDS TO BE A FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT FORM OF ATTACK.

*One person from the far back* "MERCY!!"

as long as you have good aim you can't do good but he needs somthing extra

I like McCree with 2 guns like tracer, only use one, 6 bullets gone and when he charge the gun, u can shoot left hand other 6 bullets.

I feel like genji needs a buff, nothing major, only minor changes not so anybody can play him, maybe decrease his deflect cooldown by 1 or 2 seconds or just increase his primary fire rate/speed

mccree would be the john wick of overwatch if he had invincibilty roll frames to projectiles and 6armor piercing bullets whenever he ulted. that would be fun fair skill based play. #flashbang removes armor buffs

Remove shiled bash, add different ability that helps deal with dive/protect supports without cc.

Okay my ideas, Mcree reduce roll dodge cool down and give his weapon armor piercing or he treats armor like normal hp Bastion make the recon mode have infinite ammo like Dva Torbjorn needs a bit more lovin. The turret should automatically build up as you get more kills and it should do extra damage vs shields. The armor pack I think should stay where it is. Now for the big thing that may be controversial give Torb a thrust pack, which means that he launches himself in a direction similar to how pharah uses hers except he can go horizontal or vertical, and this would be on a long cool down

It was his flashbang that made him special but why use that when Brigitte has a 5 second stun... to be fair she’s took over everything and can do everything

Why is the game shown as "Overcooked"?

B-b-but Mei doesn't have a place in OW anymore. She's at the bottom of the barrel, all alone in bottom tier. She desperately needs changes, not as much as McCree, but still! She's literally unplayable, for someone who supposedly counters divers and flankers, she sure does easily get countered by her counters...

Torb win rate is low cause he is the hero people take when they want to throw. Also, his turret is best used as a flanker (for lack of a better term), when the enemy comes in with their shields the turret should shoot from the back, which means it needs to be placed in a corner right next to the door, so it's not vulnerable from outside, but still can do back line damage

Genji may need a slight counter-buff due to the nerfed deflect. He was already underperforming this season and the nerf seemed unnecessary in the first place (Genji can extend his arms to his wingspan, don't even). Maybe an increase to mag size or a higher projectile speed. And for the love of God, fix wall climb and swift strike.

So I was smurfing in bronze the other day and bastion was in every single game. All the players down in bronze think he is balanced but definitely not in diamond/masters

Torb does nothing Torb:*sets turret* Me: see he‘s uuhm... Torb:*kills entire team with spamming left click on his turret* He doesn‘t need to be buffed he is just a stupid character for noobs and that he is only playable by pros is just sad

For McCree, I think that he should not have fall off damage.

NO! No more reworks Please its ruining the characters AND the Game, Buffs/Nerfs would be acceptable But Symmetra and Torb Reworks hopefully will be the Last Reworks

If bastion gets buffed it’ll be better for master + players but in the lower ranks bastion is all ready basically over powered so in the lower ranks if he gets buffed he’ll become stupid op unless you’re a high rank

Reinhardt needs a buff. I'm a genji main, 107 hours and in plat, and I also flex. He is just shit now when I flex to him and everyone wants Orisa, but who wouldn't since she's resistant to CC, even when I'm already playing hardt and I know they are right. If you play genji/tracer you would know how easy he is to blink and jump around while spamming him with clips and weeb stars. Brigitte isn't helping his cause either. He gets downright DEMOLISHED with the meta for the last 3 or more seasons and it's starting to become concerning to me. Rein is one of my favorite characters personality wise and this kinda hurts me. I would like to propose a new ability that can help give him the type of "back off or I'll make you" type of abilities. The ability would be a upward swing that launches foes in the air with a stun (not sure about damage) making a flanker or a dive character think twice before diving that Rein with his team. This can also make a opening for attacks as well. The cool down I don't know but I think it should be a little lengthy considering the CC and upward attack. Just so he doesn't wombo combo you, his abilities will be disabled, (besides shield) have a short stun, (not sure how long) and will stop what Rein is doing like firestrike. Please give me feedback for I would love to better this, maybe even make a forum about it, (i can't since I play console) and of course imagine scenarios where it could be useful, useless, op, weak, maybe even just meh. Thank you for reading. -The one Genji who spams "mada mada" in the spawn room

God damn this community is toxic. Reading these comments make me regret even playing overwatch. But McCree needs a buff... NOW

Bastion seems like a no no to me. Just get a team to play somewhat around you (which isn't hard) and bam. You get the cheesiest thing that the enemy team dreads.

OW has really lost its shine for me. So many characters are not only unfun to play against but also just not fun to play. Sym, Torb, Brigitte, bastion, Moira, are such ez mode characters to play that they kind of negate the need to spend time perfecting high skill characters. Some medium to high skill characters have been removed from the game practically bc of all the armor and health flying around lately. If there is a Brigitte, genii and tracer are gone. Hanzo has replaced mcree entirely at mid range. The meta has essentially come down to which team gets a Hanzo Zarya Ult combo first. It’s boring af imo

Ever seen the movie The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. In the movie, the main character has a 6-shooter pistol AND a sniper line rifle. McCree should have a secondary ability where he pulls out a long range rifle.

What do you think of Reaper in the current meta? I think he’s a little underpowered with all the armor going around. Is there anything you would change about him to make him more viable?

Mcree needs a robotic horse for mobility it will make him look cooler he looks dorky when he does anything also to summon it can just materialize while running and he jumps on to it or that could be his new ult and the call out will be get along horsey or sumthin I dunno

You actually don’t know what your talking about “buff his fan the hammer”

A bastion buff i would like to see implemented is another configuration,(see his alert emote for look) in this config, he would move slower but still retain his passive from turret form while also gaining a slight spread decrease on his main weapon.

My idea is to make high noon lock on faster but not last as long so it’s worse for the very best players but better for most players

They need to just remove fan the hammer and replace it with a better ability. Maybe move his ult to it (after changing it a lot) and give him a better ult because his ult is easily the worst in the game. Remove his ults slow, and instakill, but make it a quick lock on the does less damage per shot but is a guaranteed hit with no falloff and then replace his ult to something else.

A person in my opinion that they should buff is Mei The way they can buff her is she can go ahead and spray the floor with her ice and the ice will stay on there for about 3-4 seconds and enemy’s that walk over it are slower and if they are in it for a little bit they will freeze. For her and her allies if they walk over the ice they move faster. Just a idea on how I would buff mei

Um how about Orisa. She was only truely viable during the most "broken" meta in OW. It took two hero's being "broken" in order for her to see use and as shown in the league no one really cares to use her. She was basically dead on arrival and it's been about 1.5years of this.

We need to rework Torb into a blank hero slot.

Haven't seen the video but I know it's gonna be about McCree, Mei and Torbjorn.

What if torbs molten core was split into ult and an ability with a 30 second cool down and maybe an 8-10 second usage. The molten core on the turret will stay as ult but maybe get a slight buff and the molten core on torb could be activated occasionally for high defense and damage
