Tracer Nerf Idea

Pulse Pistols
-Clip size decreased from 40 to 30

Comments:
Tracer can easlity one clip any 200 health hero in the game. If this nerf is implemented, she would have to use more than one clip to finish them off.

Bad suggestion right there.

I think one of the weakest things about tracer is her magazine size. I’m not saying it needs to be buffed, god no. But I don’t think 40-30 is a good idea. I think a damage decrease is the best idea at the moment for Tracer. Other than that, with Brigitte she’s not doing too well.

Stop letting her doing so?
this sounds like: play tracer, reload 6 times, teamkill.
I mean ok she can one clip, but there are heroes that can do it way faster, example? Hanzo (he doesn’t even has a magazine)

She needs a Range nerf.

Down to 25m.

There’s NO WAY she should have THAT much mobility and be able to finish heroes off from 30m. She has THREE BLINKS and A RECALL and a HIGHER BASE RUN SPEED.

Those tools are ample for getting in, dealing decent damage, and getting out.

And if they really want her to manage her resources properly, then Recall should work LIKE THE TOOLTIP says and actually return her to her pre-Recall HP—whether it’s lower OR higher than when she activated the ability. Make her think more.

Being able to move all over the place SO quickly is a massive advantage–especially with an easy get out. She’s too good.

Yesterday you made a topic to stop low skill heroes now you make topic to nerf one of the highest skill hero.

why so generous? 15!

do you enjoy getting one clipped by tracer?

lol, as if Tracer can’t easily kill you up close as well, dancing around you while shooting you to pieces.

tracer is fine. she is a high damage low health hero, meaning she is all offense, no defense apart from her recall. the fact that she has to use a full clip to finish off a 200 hp hero tells you she has the lowest damage pr. shot in game. I think it’s 4 or something, let me look it up really quick. Tracer does 240 dps and it takes her 2 seconds to empty her clip meaning 480 dps pr. clip, enough to kill anyone but tanks, but if you devide that by 40 and then again by 2 (2 pistols) that number becomes 6 damage pr. shot. Sombra has 4 or something really low, but she has 60 shots in her magasine.
in short, she is fine. When tracer gets really scary is when your team has Brigitte ult and a torbjorn, then she gets 240 HP or something like that, the same as a reaper and a mei (250), then she turns into a beast. with old symmetra it would be even higher, 300 almost if you stacked al 3.

This post, NO! The person writing this post seems like a massive troll. He first wanted to get rid of low skill heroes. Now he wants to give one of the highest skill cap heroes a huge nerf. Indecisive much?

Do you enjoy being on clipped by anyone? I cant really think of a character that cant one clip a 200hp hero. Even mercy can one clip people.

The difference is that you have actually time to react when other heroes want to kill you, but tracer can do What she want with her overtuned mobility and her ā€œpussy get out of here buttonā€

I’m trying to. Avoid this kind or rage posts, not helpful and not healthy at all. Just someone triggered in the last game and decided to make a thread.
Srsly these players are either under the top 50 players, playing against OWL pro 's and Korean players. Or they just don’t play aim heroes and believe, tracer is like moira, while it corrects itself to deal headshots.

You mean like widow can 1 shot you from a distance like a pussy and grapple away if someone threatens her?

Well its pretty obvious that someone tilted them really bad that they had to go on forums asking for something thats never gonna happen.

In the heat of the battle, and surrounded by opponents, not always with the 3rd time manages to kill the target, especially if all around interfere. What are you talking about?
For Tracer very difficult to play that would kill so. I will do the same for Genji if I play professionally. Yes, and on any other hero as well.

is that your professional opinion doc? :laughing:
as if you need to be tilted by ā€œsomeoneā€ to hold a grudge against some heroes
Tracer’s (And Doomfist’s and Genji’s) mobility is b e y o n d r i d i c u l o u s on top of the other things, reload speed, range etc

Your agreeing with the OP then? Like 25% reduction to tracers clip size would be really good for the game?

i agree with the range reduction as jez said
and even then that’s just a band aid for the annoyance (fact: i have died x5 more by widows or hanzos, i believe we all had but i still have fun playing against them)
more drastic measures are required (not removing the heroes as i often joke) but it’s never going to happen so no point telling you :stuck_out_tongue:

She was already questionably OP and then she was tuned down to a very healthy spot where she’s not OP anymore but still very viable in skillful hands without being excessively problematic. No need for any changes ATM
