I am so mad, I am so angry, I JUST HATE THEM.
YOU MUST NOT CHANGE HEROES WHEN YOU BRING A NEW ONE (ASH) TO THE GAME.
A serious dev would look how Ash work out and have impact on the meta.
Now you change a Hero again? Reducing Shieldbash to >>>5<<< DMG
(MAKE IT 0 YOU FOOOOOOOOLS 5 is a JOKE!) but increasing her heal
IS CHANGING THE HERO GAMEPLAY TOTALY
I am Genji main, I shouldn’t care at brig at all, BUT as with Mercy I HAVE empathy with the BRIG MAINS!
tl;dr Blizzard OW devs are to dumb to do shiet. Hire me instead I give you working balance… Even a 10th grader can do better balancing…

If you have problem with brigitte just take pharah, If you can spam X button you can switch to Pharah too.
Beautifully put…
XD
On a serious note, the 5 damage on Shield Bash is actually a joke and completely betrays the design team’s lack of ‘chill’. Nothing is ever gentle with the Hero Design team. They take a hammer to everything OR inject it with nitrous oxide.
Flash Bang does 25. Hook does 30. Boop does 25. Sonic Arrow does 125 (and can headshot XD) A BABY D.VA PUNCHING A GIANT MONKEY DOES 30!
And they settled on 5 for Shield Bash. (I know its PTR, but nothing much changes over the three test weeks, and the mentality that 5 is anywhere near okay is embarrassing). I really hope it’s a typo. PLEASE be a typo.
Where on EARTH did they stop to think about the ‘fantasy’ of playing Brigitte and then CONTINUE to think that SMASHING SOMEONE IN THE FACE WITH A SHIELD should do 5 times LESS damage than firing music at them?
Fine, you want to kill the Tracer One-Shot combo? Drop SB to 25! That way you have 70hp for the Whip Shot + 35hp for a Flail (105) and 25hp for the Bash (which she always opens with, meaning that after 130hp damage, the Tracer can Recall, Blink or whatever.
If you’re mixing it up in melee range with a Brigitte, then, unless you’re designed for that same space, you SHOULD have a problem. They finally made Reaper a little better at what he does, but Tracer and Genji have the range and mobility to ‘range manage’ her–and their counter hero shouldn’t be nerfed because she’s good against the heroes SHE’S SUPPOSED TO COUNTER. If Poster Girl and Poster Boy get too close, then tough shoot. RIP them.

Not when Bethesda is around.
Yet you care enough to post it in the first place. Well here’s the attention that you wanted.
Nah this is f*cking the first time in a long while, where we have seen actual balance changes. The mercy nerfs, the brig nerfs, the doomfist tweaks and the support buffs. The game is finally getting “Balanced” instead of all these disgusting OTP “Mains”, crying about their one hero no longer begin OP, too good and too easy etc.
These nerfs are an accurate portrayal of the dev team realising who needs nerfs and why, yet they still have some issues with, what part of the heroes needs the nerfs and that is still an issue yet that we can deal with.
Besides you are below the average players of this game, your opinion is so useless, when it comes to balancing, it is actually laughable. Stop pretending you know anything about the game, clue 1: your rank, quite clearly shows you have yet to learn this game.
Pros and high ranked players a like have talked about every single hero that has been nerfed and buffed recently pretty much, they have in fact been balancing the game better and better through the last two seasons (12-13). Sure we still aren´t there, the speed of ptr changes could use some adjusting (faster), but we surely are dragging it in the right way (Skill = Reward = challenging and competetive gameplay).
Your argument that you shouldn´t balance potential current 29 hero issues, just because 1 hero is getting released is ridiculous. That is quite litterally one of the dumbest opinions i have heard period.
They don’t have a team at all, it’s like interns doing the jobs these days

When you intend to nerf a hero that is already in the process of being nerfed after being nerfed 2 weeks earlier and 1 month earlier and 2 months earlier despite having a really low pick rate anyways, that’s indeed bad development. Also let’s not forget that Torb got better against Brig, Wrecking Ball is still developing (most people can’t play him yet) and good against brig and Ashe is coming in and good against Brig. So there’s a bunch of factors that nerf her by proxy anyway.
In the meantime, Hanzo is left alone despite being ridiculous since his rework.

Why don’t u have empathy with blizz devs? Brig was a DPS, a tank, a support, and dive counter at the same time. Now she’s more heal and tank. Blizz devs aren’t the best, but EA is so much worse. Just look at SW BF II. If they have to change something, they will. Look at R6, they have a trash character, who is just a meme. We don’t. There are some heroes who are not very good, like symm, torb, bastion, but all of the just got buffed, they are getting better.
Don’t know if you’ve played alot of games, but you can get ALOT worse than the OW team, they listen to the community, give constant updates and try their hardest to balance the game, I certainly don’t agree with everything they are doing but calling them the worst dev team in history is beyond delusional.
Stop acting entitled and condecending, you would soil yourself if you were tasked with balancing a game like this.

Most games don’t even survive 2 years to require balance work.
Blizzard is far from the best dev, but have you seen YandereDev?
