It may just be me and my deafness lmao but during a team fight when ultimate season are being used, it is really difficult to hear the enemy widowmaker’s ultimate voice line as she basically whispers compared to the rest of the cast.
It may be just my luck but it really seems like there is no indication that her ultimate is up the symmetra is screaming in Hindi, our lucio is screaming let’s break it down and zarya is screaming her voice line in Russian lmao
Can someone else relate to this? And maybe a solution to this is to make widowmaker a voice line louder. It’s fine when she pops it when nothing is happening but in a team fight it’s really hard to detect audibly when other things are going on

Hey, I notice that Widowmakers ultimate is kinda “op” in my opinion. Why? When Widowmaker uses her ultimate she only “says” the ultimate once.
Now, I recommend you all going on YouTube and listening all ultimate voice lines with the other sounds and animations. You will notice that beside the talking there will be other noises that you can hear and visual indications on most of the ultimates. Widowmaker’s ultimate in my knowledge is the only ultimate to have ONLY voice line and no other addition on that.
You will notice that all other ultimates will have additional sound ques to indicate it is going on. For example, Doomfist will have the sound how much time it has left and everyone can hear it regardless of team. Additionally almost of all ultimates have some visual ques to them, there are other exceptions like Doomfist only jumps off to sky at the start but it has the additional sound ques going on while he is in the sky.
Only way to know Widowmaker used ultimate in my knowledge is literally to hear the 1 voice line she says, which in my opinion is the most silent ultimate there is. After she has said the ultimate voice line there is no way to find out that she is using it, unless other person tells you or you watch the kill cam and see that she had used it.
I would like to ask Blizzard to look into this and either add some other ques if Widowmaker has used ultimate because in my opinion her voice line is way too silent and easily missed. I would either add additional sound ques that would be on the start, I do not know if there should be one but if there is I can’t hear it.
I had a game where Ashe, Widowmaker, Genji, Mercy, Zenyatta and McCree used ultimates within 5 seconds each others and after watching re-play of that moment multiple times I did not know widow had used ultimate until 7th time when I looked from the widowmaker’s perspective that she indeed used ultimate right after Ashe just before Genji but I could not hear it while playing game and watching re-play of my self playing again.
I would realy realy realy like to have something done to Widowmaker’s ultimate to make it more easily tracked when it is used as 9 out of 10 times I do not know Widowmaker has ultimate unless someone says that to me.
Sorry for long response, hope you all have grate day/evening/night/morning ^_^/)
Sorry to necro, but I think they need to show a little “detected” on top of your screen like they do with invisible Sombra
That way I don’t have to mentally count when her stupid ultimate ends, while trying to focus and communicate with my team.
Also, I think it needs to be louder as well.
