Whenever I post a topic saying Brig isn’t fun to play against, people always say that my opinion is wrong and that she can easily be played around. I normally play tanks like Roadhog and D.Va, and I am tired of how often I get hit with stuns. I simply disagree with a kit that is very durable and provides a lot of CC, whilst also requiring little to no effort to use. Is it never OK to have an opinion these days? I even got falsely reported and suspended for saying how I think Brig is not fair on the US forums.

Cannot ignore her pick rate which is quite low, she be even lower pick rate then Lucio if nerfed to much.
Frankly, you should be thankful for not having been permanently banned yet for the ongoing violations of the forum’s code of conduct. Your opinion is not wanted if it is expressed not only in duplicate threads, but also in threads that clearly fit the “Harassing or Defamatory” category that not only includes players, but characters as well.
I’m sick and tired of demands that a hero I adore in all of her aspects and that I enjoy playing is to be removed from the game. Am I to be removed as well?
How realistic are such demands? That brings us to the “Spamming and Trolling” part of the CoC.
It’s quite bold to continue here what you apparently have been suspended for before and even now act as if you were some poor victim of an evil conspiracy. That by itself is yet another violation, found under “Discussing Disciplinary Actions”
So whatever. Deal with the consequences - if any - if you so blatantly refuse to play by the rules. End of the line. That’s an opinion too, but unlike yours actually backed by the CoC.
How do you harass a character in a video game? That doesn’t break a rule…
I think Brig has a stupid kit.
That’s not breaking a single rule ^ if you’re getting offended due to my opinion on a certain character then you should re evaluate your views on this game tbh.

Brig is unbalanced and in the wrong category. She is brawler and not a support.
Harassing or Defamatory
This category includes both clear and masked language and/or links to websites containing such language or images which:
Insultingly refer to other characters, players, Blizzard employees, or groups of people
Result in ongoing harassment to other characters, players, Blizzard employees, or groups of People
Don’t ask me. Ask THEM.
That’s besides the point that there is obviously a difference between critical about a character’s kit and creating repeated threads that demand for a character to be outright removed. That’s not just annoying and insulting to those who actually like those characters for whatever reason, but also “Creating threads for the sole purpose of causing unrest on the forums” and therefore nothing but trolling because he knows damn well that such demands tick people off and uses it to gain attention.
Check the post history when in doubt.
There is a Long thread here Crowd control and brigitte - #928 by Andrew-18333 where everybody is truly free to voice opinions, and it sorta acts like the dumpster anyway for each and every new thread created about her because they get merged with it. There is no need to create a new “remove her” thread every few days to express criticism.
Don’t worry. If you come here and say that it’s not fun to play against Baguette because of X and Y you’re being completely reasonable because well that’s your opinion. However if you blatantly start asking for these heroes you don’t like to be removed from the game or to be nerfed/changed just because you don’t like them you’re being unreasonable and absurd. And frankly that’s what you’ve been doing:
^This thread was even locked down because of it’s inflammatory nature
Just maybe think about what you write before you write. The forums aren’t a place for such absurd hostility towards certain heroes of this game and if you want to vent out your frustration towards these heroes there are plenty of places on the internet that allow this. Here you’ll have to deal with the consequences be it other players calling you out on you bs or even the moderators locking down activity.

Well my opinion is that junkrat and brig can be played by braindead monkey. But with doom it it is different. Yes it is annoying but it takes a lot of skill and timing to be effective.
And problem with your opinion is that you do not offer alternative? Like i would say brig needs lover damage but more healing to allies to and junk just need that his nades explode on first impact. That would in my opinion solve a lot of issues. And then their is that annoying Mei. Since i am tank main i hate being frozen all the time. So it should be balanced in a way that bigger targets needs more time to freeze?
So what is your opinion exactly? That she’s not fun to play against or that you can’t counter her or win against her? Those are 2 entirely different things.
I guess people in the internet get really butt hurt real easily these days and can’t really take in others opinions.
Because i totally agree with you, getting stunned by brigitte almost everytime you encounter her in a match is such a pain in the a**.
But you don’t have to take sh*t from others if they don’t agree with you, just say what you have to say and be proud of it. You don’t have to care if others dissagree with you. At least you believe in your own opinion and can stand for it.
Here’s the problem: Asking for hero changes just because you don’t like them is absolutely absurd. If we were to change heroes simply because of some players feel this and that we’d have an absolute clown fiesta game and nothing would change. Players would still hate some heroes and their abilities no matter how you’d change them and the other half would just keep complaining how their favorite heroes are being changed because of some babyraging players who don’t even play those heroes. That’s why everyone asking changes just because of their feelings are either shut down by other players who actually base their opinions about abilities on statistics and proplay or are just ignored by everyone else except those who feel the same.
The only time the devs consider changes to a hero based on subjective opinions is when they consider fairness. This is why for example Scatter Shot that was able to one-shot Orisa was reworked or why Roadhog’s hookcombo was changed from a no-brainer one-shot to something you have to aim with and it might still not be a one-shot. Mercy’s rework was done partly because of this due to everyone feeling cheated of their efforts and partly because the kit was just fundamentally flawed and promoted feeding.
Did you miss the whole post? I have said that the problem with his opinion is that he does not offer an alternative. And then i have said which heroes i do not like and offer some quick alternatives. Read the whole post again before ranting. Damn
Also hanzo scatter arrow was less broke than this thing we have now.
edit: also if you didn’t see the line that triggered you has question mark at the end. You know what that mean?
I did not? I’m not sure what you’re babbling about as I agreed with you on how absurd demanding changes based on subjective opinions is?
Neither of these abilities are broke. Both of them have worked fine. Did you miss the whole post? Read the whole post again before ranting. Damn
Calling me triggered seems rather ironic at this point
Chitanzo is totaly broken. On top of his abilites he is shooting logs and not arrows. You can send that logarrow in different post number and it will still record a headshot
Yeah, well, that’s just, like, your opinion, man. ![:upside_down_face:](https://d1kzxbyyijk9k6.cloudfront.net/en/overwatch/images/emoji/twitter/upside_down_face.png?v=6" ":upside_down_face:")
True that. But that is also opinion of majority as it seems
I think shes fine atm. Still not a good 2n healer. She’s good when she takes away a dps pick from the team but that’s about it.
I honestly had to stop sharing in the forums. The last time I was harrassed by someone who mained the character I was expressing concern about (a specific ability) and then several other people who either mained that character or played their counters responded to me with basically the same bunk. my opinion is ‘wrong’ and that character is easy to play around.
It really upsets me that people can’t handle differing opinions. I don’t need you to agree with me, but can you at least hear me out and ask questions? I made a dang post in the forums. If you disagree so whole heartedly against me- make your own post rather than trying to snuff mine out. Yea I totally hear and empathize with you.
you’re being down right agressive to anyone posting buddy, this goes against the code of conduct so i suggest you tone it down before you get reported. you talk about people baby raging about a game, you’re baby raging because people have an opinion.
