    They "buffed" Sojourn in a way.
    They made it so that, if I'm going for primary headshots, and the enemy Sojourn isn't, I'm missing out on railgun charge that they're gaining because I'm missing more shots over all.
    I'm being punished for going for headshots with primary fire

    I feel like they don't want to get rid of the core concept of sojourn, that's why they test around with those rather strange changes and honestly can't blame them (don't get me wrong playing against her feels awful) cause the concept of her is insanely cool

      it shouldnt be less than decent imo, nerfing her healing wont make her more balanced since its her ult and suzu not her healing that makes her so strong and they nerfed something on her that wasnt great anyway
      the same goes for soj, they didnt balance/nerf the actual problem but only adjusted everything else trying to make her weaker which barely did, i really believe the devs want those 2 to stay like they are no matter how broken it is and do everything to avoid balancing them

    With everything else in Kiriko's kit being as ridiculously powerful as it is, making her much less viable as the main healing support is an ok idea. It still doesn't justify the enormous power descrepency between her and every other support character in the game, but if it could actually force teams to choose between Kiriko, Mercy or Zen as the secondary support then that would be great for the game overall.

    Sojourn has been nerfed several times now and is still OP. Imo her railgun should only be able to use 50% of charge at a time so that the one-shot is basically gone and requires 2 shots on someone most of the time.

    • @trulers8713
      @trulers8713 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ooo that's a good idea, I'd split it into 3 charges tho so you can quick triple tap somebody but then it's still survivable if you can react fast enough. Also make it have a .5 second delay between each railgun shot.

      I guess they hope to bring her more in line with other supports without taking away her strengths, so there is a clear distinction why you would take her over others and she isn't the default best option.

    SUZU is the problem Blizzard, not her healing capabilities. Sure it doesn't help that she is one of the faster healers compared to other supports but it's her ability to cancel LITERALLY everything in the game with one button thats the problem. shatter, anti, basically any burst ult, freeze, burn, sleep like wtf cant she do. And no other supports were given sufficient buffs to compete. Kiriko is a get out of jail free card, no thought required, just suzu from the back when your team needs it.

    • @brianfarley4814
      @brianfarley4814 ปีที่แล้ว

      Honestly, I think suzu could be nerfed to be more narrow in application. I don't think it should work vs pin or traps, for example, and I don't see why it boops the enemies. I think adding another 1.5 seconds to her teleport cool down would be huge. Reducing the headshot to 2.5x (100) would mean that one headshot + 2 body shots wouldn't kill, but still reward the headshots.

    The problem with Kiriko is that she just does too much: typically, meta supports are determined by wether or not they enable other meta heros and how well they play with those other heros. Supports will also have strong upsides for heavy downsides. Ana has the ability to play from any range while having fantastic utility, but she has no movement making her easy to dive onto. Mercy has borderline busted mobility at the cost of being reliant as a pure enabler. Zenyatta has stupid good damage with oneshot potential but lacks in healing output.
    Kiriko has arguably the best damage output, on par healing, effectively infinite range, horizontal mobility, vertical mobility, God teir utility, and undenyably the best ultimate in the game. She has no downsides to her kit and has no trade off, so why would your team not have a Kiriko since she fits the bill in every possible situation.

    Problem with both these characters is their design and I don’t see it changing through reducing the power level alone. When comparing hit scan sojourn does it all. High constant damage, high burst, 1 shot potential, very safe with her slide, strong ult. Comparing kiriko how am I going to compete with the value of her cleanse and one of the best ults in the game as something like Baptiste, zen, even ana since Suju completely negates her? I think they can either nerf these characters so hard they simply don’t have the value to be used over their competition (which is also bad game balance and has the same issue just turned upside down) or they remain overpowered while constantly having their power level slightly turned down on a regular basis. Either way this sucks and the kits are too strong on a base level
