    Worked hard on this Ability overview/breakdown to showcase everything as clean as possible. I also recorded everything in 4K so you can look at Lifeweaver's -abs- in sharp ultra HD 😰
    And if you're looking for a Lifeweaver streamer --> it's me: twitch.tv/karq I'll be on later in the evening :)

      Lifeweaver fun fact: When the Petal Platform is in the animation of lifting up a player, if they jump at the very end of the animation, they'll be able to perform a super-jump. Allowing them to reach a high-ground that was otherwise out of the Petal Platform's lifting range, or even allowing them to jump over a wall or fence to get to cover. The map that I can see benefiting the most from this tech would probably be King's Row.

      I think unless the teammate denies it within like a second, it should go through. It's a drastic measures needed to save the target or to pull help back to weaver kinda ability, but a cancel would be nice, I don't think it's a good idea to make the gripped player the one in charge of being pulled because the situations where they can be saved are really high intensity situations, Weaver being able to make that call is better because the gripped player likely doesn't have as much information on whether the fight is something they should dip from or if going to weaver is gonna save weaver or not. It helps team mates but it also helps him to get support if a flanker dives him

    Questions: can you put the tree of life on his platform (found out you can but what happens if it falls on you or an enemy) and what does sombra hack and ult do to his abilities? And does Kirko effect the speed of tree healing, yoink, and platform rising?

      @@smollmoth6376 his abilities are less direct synergies, like Nanoblade, and more creative gameplay situations. The flower going up can get your tank into the widow tower, or it can lift your widow up for a pick on their backline, or it can get your entire team past the first chokepoint on King's row. The pull can save someone that got hooks, save a tank that was anti'd, or save someone that's getting blown up by doomfist. The tree seems fairly underwhelming, but it is something the other team has to acknowledge in a team fight.
      I think the character isn't very strong in raw power. But he has a ton of creative uses for his utility, which is better for gameplay in my experience.

Overall the auto reload when holstered makes sense so ideally you do some damage for like 2 seconds then swap to healing for 2 seconds then damage for 2 seconds. Instead of doing 1 or the other and reloading since the Reload is the same time as the Holstered auto reload. So ideally you don't reload you just swap weapons.

      It will be a lot faster than zens orb (look like Lifeweaver can charge it in around 1 second) and that's burst healing so even better but his ultimate only gives 50 HPS compared to zens 300 HPS even with Lifeweaver's initial 150 HP and 2 second longer time its 550 max total HP for Lifeweaver (this can be much shorter because the Tree is destroyable) vs Zen's max total HP of 1800 not to mention zen is invulnerable and can move around

  • @pina2509

    I see Life grip being problematic. Sure they'll be times when you can save someone from being overextended, but if its like a Winston low on health and theyre about to use their ult, but then Lifeweaver uses Life Grip and pulls the Winston away right before they pop their ult.Not only is Life Grip wasted at that point, but now the Winston has to waste time and jumps to get back into the fight. Or like a rein already having someone pinned trying to slam into a wall, but Lifeweaver pulls them back and the charge runs out before they hit a wall. Or a JQ using commanding shout to stay in the fight, but Lifeweaver pulls them back and now Life Grip and commanding shout are both wasted and on cooldown.

      That's going to be the difference between a lower level player and a higher level player. The higher level players are constantly aware of their teammates abilities on cool down or not, and even enemies abilities on cool down. The Lifeweaver is just gonna have to be keeping an eye on their teammates abilities to make sure that doesn't happen.

    I don’t think they should make it so that teammates have to press the interact key to accept being pulled and hear me out.
    Let’s say that they have to push the interact key to accept, so how long should the option to press interact appear on their screen?
    Understandably it can’t be too short, so that means the option lingers on their screen for a bit, MEANING that the teammate can freely choose when to get back to safety. This is basically giving a jett dash to your teammate to utilise, which is better than lifeweaver doing it for you, as the teammate being pulled would best know when he would want to back out.
    Next, is the question of what happens if the teammate doesn’t press interact, does the ability get put on cooldown? Or does it just not get used up? If it doesn’t get used up, theoretically you could just keep refreshing the life grip ability on your teammate, so that he would always have an escape route for himself to choose for exactly when to utilise.
    This is OP if you think about it, once again, its similar to the power and implementation of jett dash, where jett can choose freely when to dash when she sees the dash meter appear on her screen, in this case lifeweaver is the one who gives the option to dash first, while the teammate choose when to actually dash.
    Giving agency to the teammate being pulled increases the value of this ability way too much compared to lifeweaver having to decide when to pull himself.
    Think of how strongly it can be utilised for aggresive positioning. The only setback is that you’re unlikely to make reactionary pulls to save a teammate from an example: a sudden pulse bomb as your teammate is unlikely to react fast enough. But the tradeoff is minimal to the power the alternate implementation of life grip would have.

    I think a Mercy/Lifeweaver comp can work well. If you pull Mercy while being semi-close to her, she can have a safe rez. Though it does need a good timing. I also think its possible to perform a falling rez if the soul of a teammate gets elevated with the platform.
    ALSO Lifeweaver could be very useful if you as an Ana for example are coming out of spawn, since a lot of people like camping supports, Lifeweaver can save a support with no movement to escape.

It should just zarya bubble your teammate on a 12-second cooldown. The tree hitbox should not be the entire tree.

    Pretty awesome. Once again though in my opinion a good anti troll measure for the pull would be to disable casting it while Lifeweaver is in the air or stop the pull at the nearest walkable terrain if you are pulled toward a pit. I hoped the tree would block LoS, so i'm glad it does, this gives Lifeweaver incredible depth on top of the rest of his kit. I wished reusing the platform would trigger it instantly rather than destroy it, though, i'm not sure it can block (elevate) a charging tank like this, and this makes it harder to use against airborne enemies/attacks, and instead casting it AFTER it is activated destroying it. It would give him massive potential.

    Life Grip is a 20 seconds CD ability, it's not like you can do it just for the fun all the time. Of course some people will misuse it at the beginning of the new season, but once they're bored with it couple of weeks later or even sooner, people will actually use it to save teammates and will hold on to it. I see y'all talking like this game is Fall Guys and no one is trying to win matches. OW Team already confirmed that they patched his ability to grab a person out of the map. Speaking for myself, I'm not spending my 20 seconds CD ability to pull a thrower Genji or Rein back to his place while I can save someone who's actually making an impact and will be glad that I'm saving them. Can people make mistakes? Of course, still to this date the dumbasses wake a slept Bob on a regular basis. But it is what it is. If you're playing unranked, things are already a mess; if you're playing competitive, people there are trying to climb and I assume the majority is going to use all of his kit for good.

I don't see anything here that would make him busted, but I definitely see him being a standard pick with better numbers on his healing, more buffs to his ult, and some slight buffs to the dash (though really just something like 50 health instead of 25 would make it better in my opinion)

    When hog hooks one of your teammates, can you pull them back? (Which ability‘s pull is stronger, hook or life grip?)

    4:32 So the PP projectile works the same way as throwing a Torb Turret?

    Will you please make a video on the best controls settings to use for Lifeweaver? For example crosshair & custom hero settings? Thank you!

    I’ll ask since no one else did. Can you stack the PPP ability with Symetra teleport, putting the teleport on to the petal? Same with Mei Wall. Can the Mei wall raise the petal, or will the placement be invalid for as long as the petal is there? And last but not least, will the Torb turret be able to be place there as well?

    Does his passive grant himself ult charge even when an enemy takes it?

    for ur mythbusting: does the life grip ability always place teammates on solid ground? if u do pull some1 across a gap while standing on the ledge, where does it put ur teammate?

    tbh i see this hero ending up like oh symettra or torb in that many players will not appreciate them because their low stats especially healing, but will still have players that practice to maximize their potential
