A game that is nearly 5 years old has less players than when it launched… SHOCK HORROR.
The dying game meme is tiresome so I won’t entertain it further.
They have set the game up. The best players are mastering it. The lower players need to improve, fundamental failings to utilise the kit you have been provided is not a fault of Blizzard. It is the fault of the player. This is where the “git gud” meme comes from.
People constantly asking “why can’t I climb” “while do I keep losing” “how do I win more” and on and on and on…
Simple answer… learn, improve, be a better player.
Unless you are playing 100% PERFECTLY, then people should definitely listen to your issues with a hero. But chances are, you are not playing anywhere near perfectly… That is why we are down here lol.
That’s ridiculous. You’re the one insulting dude, to be fair.
And they will improve because you told them to ? This is where blizzard community fails. Some people are playing for fun and on lower ranks. Skill level need to be adjusted to some extent.
As I said my friends (because it is a dying game, and no! it is not because it has less players) have up to 3 accounts to play because literally has no people. They play for fun, even in competitive. If they do not like the team, they leave with their other accounts. They do not care for score, they just leave and start a new game. Rest of the players just suffer the gaming experience.
But lets get back to the point: for low skill players Reaper is oppressive and I will never change my opinion. This is why they address the issue.
He is right though…
The only ones that think he is OP are the one that have just been out played by him and failed to deal with him.
Recency bias… it is painful.

No, no one has to improve.
But if you don’t you will perpetually stay where you are.
As you say. A competent Reaper player will stomp on low skill player… Because they need to work on things.
The players need to improve. The hero doesn’t need nerfing.
Give me an account in bronze and I will destroy bronze players on Winston. No one in their right mind thinks Winston needs nerfing though.
Some times, you just have to except that better players will beat you. So learn from your mistakes, be the better player and take revenge.
Ok, let say it: reaper is just too braindead for the output he has. If that helps to understand my point then let it be. I think Zarya is a bit more stronger than she should be but as you said it is the most engaging and team oriented tank so should be rewarded with that. Reaper is literally no skill braindead hero that even can provide high damage with no aim.
Winston is not OP because it has weak ST dps, but strong cleave. Moreover, it has huge hitbox, and with the lack of defences we cannot even compare it to reaper.

no no. I get your point. I just completely disagree, as I am not sure you understand the fundamentals behind risk and reward and come across as someone who is angry that they can’t deal with a player on a single hero.
Reaper’s skill is knowing how and when to engage. And if you can get in close you have a chance to take good rewards for your high risk play.
Yeah. If I make a mistake, or don’t make the call I am likely to get dunked on by a Reaper (if they have one). But that is my issue, not his. I have a team I can call on to help me.
Fundamental difference in the mindset of some players.
Get hard out played.
PERSON 1 : “must be cheater”, “he picked a broken hero”, “that hero is OP”
PERSON 2 : “I played that badly, my fault” goes away and learns from mistake.
Give me a team of PERSON 2’s every day of the week. Win or lose, at least there is no one deflecting their failings on to other things because they haven’t got the fortitude to take responsibility for their mistakes.
Or just leave and ruin their experience. If you do not like the group do not waste your time. This is person 3 mindset.
I do not have problem with Reaper, I just accept different points.
If you are leaving games because you are upset. That just shows everyone what type of person you are.
A quitter. One who is unwilling to improve and evolve. Must be fun having to work IRL with someone who has that mindset…

It’s a game man. Please you are playing it for fun. I do not quit every game but some games are waste of time. I value mine.
Yeah. I play and try to win til the end, then don’t que again if the games are bad.
Again it is a mind set thing.
You have a poor one and need to work on that.
Take care of yourself. I can distinguish when it is worth and when it is not. Games are for fun and relax. Playing too much is bad. I play until I wanna do so.
Denial is ridiculous and its not an insult dude, I am literally reflecting reality.
Name any Developer, Proplayer, Streamer, survey, website with stats ANYTHING that has any logic besides “I am a tank and Reaper counters me” to prove Reaper is overpowered.
Its like Genji asking for Winston nerfs because he counters him. That is INTENDED.
Now FACTS:
- Any other ranged or mid DPS counters Reaper.
- Awareness and positioning counters Reaper more than anyone-
- He has limited range, unlike 80% (or more) of the DPS roster.
- His ultimate is underwhelming, 510 damage and can be stunned, booped, anything.
- He is a flanker with the most underwhelming engaging ability : Shadow Step.
Where is this “Overpower” that you claim he has? Where? Where besides close range and vs Tanks? Because if thats all you have, he is definitely NOT Op.
Good luck with getting your account closed then. You attitude stinks.
You can enjoy games and not just ruin others fun. Not going to kill you to wait a few extra minutes. You are the type of entitled fool that kills most peoples fun.
that would be nice if it were true, but winston doesn’t counter genji… he doesn’t do enough damage, the genji just alt fires into his huge head hitbox = dead winston
Hahahaha classic. This response will go down well…
And you are no lifer when we go to insults each other. Leave your life and stop teaching others. It’s a game forum not a Personal habitats one.
No lifer? What because I don’t leave a video game mid match? I finish the match then stop playing… what a sad life I must lead… lol
