Should Ashes Dynamite Be Killable?

Hey!
I recently played a few rounds of QP and Comp and I realised that some Ashe players can’t or don’t want to hit their Dynamite to make it explode instantly.

Thats okay and everyone can play her how he/she wants.

The only thing which I don’t like is that you can’t destroy it. I feel like it should be handled just like Junks mine.
If it lays there and it doesn’t get shot you should be able to destroy it.

I get the point, you can not kind of use it in a combi such like Junk and trap but a lot of Ashes which I saw where just pulling out their dynamite, trying to shoot in, miss it and the there is still this thing there.
Especially during a team fight it can be annoying to keep an eye on it since it does a lot of damage over time.

What I mean is maybe not making it one shot.
What I want is that it has HP, such like Symms turrets for example.
That would make that ability a little bit more risky to pull through.

Either you shoot it as soon as you can to guarantee the DMG, or you have to “risk” it getting destroyed.


Maybe it would make the ability to weak?
What do you guys think?

I’ll vote no. Zarya can time it so it has counter play believe it or not. D.va can eat it and Genji can reflect it. (not when its on the ground thou).

It would be an interesting idea to make other players be able to shoot the dynamite, too. It would be a great counter play possibility because you could hit the dynamite right after she threw it, making it hit herself.

However, it has to have hp so only heroes with higher damage per shot, like McCree can make the dynamite explode. Otherwise, rapid fire heroes like tracer, bastion or Soldier 76 would have a too easy time dealing with Ashe

And wicked, you weeb, you like the image function too much, don’t you :wink:

I think its fine as is, not been a massive problem for me :slight_smile: LET IT SPLODE!

I feel like we need more time before we decide if shes balanced or not.
Atm she has good win rate but bad pick rate.


I mean, it’s better to compare it to junk’s normal fire as those aren’t controllable or able to be shot down by the enemy team just like ashe’s dynamite.
