So these characters are requires no skill, no brain, barely any strategy and are just too OP for most arcade games.
So, with these 2, sorry for saying it, toxic OP trash characters the Deathmatches and Team Deathmatches are just horrendous to play, especially. I swear I see a Hog, a Moira or GOD FORBID a Hog / Moira in every match. E.V.E.R.Y March, you read that right.
This case is, I’ve seen this crap (these two characters speciafically being overpowered and lowskill pick survival gods) since probably 2018. I thought it was gonna get nerfed sometime. For instance the offensive orb can right out kill targets it wasnt even aimed at, at all, and just isnt a fun mechanic - its too randomized. It hasnt gotten nerfed, it really hasnt and I just cannot believe their not doing anything about this. After all these years I cant stay silent and not vent this frustration; they’re still 1 shotting, still requires VERY little mechanical or strategical skill, still survival gods and still just so ducking boring to fight against e.v.e.r.y single game.
It bounces off the walls according to moddelled light physics, it leaves at the same angle it arrived at.
Some people know map geometry so well that they can bounce their orbs anywhere they want.
It’s the one ability of moira’s that has actual skill ceiling outside of positioning and gamesense.
Doesn’t team deathmatch lock the winning team’s heroes for the foreseeable matches?
I agree that map knowledge is a skill and being able to play into that is great, this goes for every character. I’m talking about the randomized orbs going all over the place, even on freshly spawned characters in the Deathmatch mode. Hog and Moira seems to be balanced only around regular and competative objective modes.
Team deathmatch doesnt lock any character picks, no.
Besides, at this point if you win against a team with Hog or Moira the next match will have someone pick those characters. I swear, every game has one of them. Its not even fun to have them on the team either.
I’ve seen other posts about these characters, albeit it old, but the message is the same; “You’re basicly throwing if you dont have one of them.” To go against a team(DM) with Hog and Moira, you HAVE to counter pick those two specifically, the other two doesnt matter compared to Hog and Moira.
Heavy on hog, whenever hog even becomes slightly playable the games quality significantly plunges
