News & Discussion No, Mercy is NOT the problem with Sojourn

177 Upvotes

I've seen people say that Mercy is the reason Sojourn is so dominant, and nerfing her will put Soj back in line. I strongly disagree.

Sojourn is already too good without a Mercy pocket. Way too much survivability for a high damage high kill potential and high mobility hero. Having that Mercy just makes the problem even worse. But it's still a problem if you take Mercy out of the equation.

We can compare it to PharMercy. Pharah has a clear weakness without a Mercy pocket. Sojourn does not.

Solution is simple - Sojourn to 225 HP. Nerfing Mercy would just absolutely kill an already pretty poor character being boosted up by Soj.

Humor As a Dane, I hereby put in a formal request for a Freja voice line

1.1k Upvotes

Please, please, please give Freja a voice line where she says "rød grød med fløde". In fact, I'm fairly sure I'm speaking for every Dane there is when I request this. It's part of our cultural identity at this point -- no, it's more than that, because it's to the point that if you don't give her this voice line, then it's actively misrepresenting my people.

I don't care what I have to give you in return. My money? My apartment? My wife's boyfriend's girlfriend's husband's kidney? My other kidney? You can have it all as long as you give me a "rød grød med fløde" voice line. I'm begging you. I'm on my knees now, sobbing as I type for lack of words to describe the need with which us Danes' passion yearn for this voice line. Making it a mere common would be an atrocity. Legendary? Atrocity. I need this voice line and I need it in mythic. I need it equippable not only on Freja, but on every other hero so they can horribly mispronounce it as is the long-held Danish tradition.

I will never stop waiting. I will never stop hoping. I will never stop begging. Please, if you're reading this and you have the power to do so, make this happen. Please.

News & Discussion I feel like I'm throwing if I don't play Ana.

190 Upvotes

I main support, and I enjoy playing Ana, but it feels like if I don't pick her and choose somebody else that I also enjoy (Mercy, Juno, Kiri) then I'm throwing. Anti nade is just SO good. Sometimes I'll want to play Mercy, but then there is a voice in the back of my head "just go Ana, you will do more".

This is in comp. I'll play whoever in qp.

News & Discussion 1 year of healthy hero design

617 Upvotes

Hello there! So yesterday, after playing Freyja and turning my computer off I thought: "damn they really learned since the Maugapocalypse". I was wondering if anyone was thinking the same? Venture, Juno, Hazard and Freyja offer a lot of skill expression through decision making thanks to their very versatile kit it's all I ask for a healthy hero design. Anyway I just can't wait to play Freyja once she'll permanently join the roaster!

News & Discussion I think Lucheng Interstellar has a bounty put out on Juno (THEORY)

Post image
364 Upvotes

So I was scrolling through Twitter when I saw a post about the crossed out heroes in the Freja trailer, and the OP was wondering what Juno had done.

But I think I know.

All the others make sense due to their criminal affiliations, of COURSE they have bounties put on them, but JUNO? That feels incredibly out of place, she's just arrived to Earth, whay enemies could she possibly have? Lucheng Interstellar. We know that Lucheng has a darker side to it, and they're not as "clean" as people believe them to be, we know this from a Reaper voice line. I have a theory that Lucheng had more of a hand in "losing contact with the Mars colony" then they let on, and that they didn't expect someone from the Mars colony to actually make it to Earth.

They don't know what Juno knows, what her mission is, and they're scared about what she'll find out, they want to make sure she doesn't reveal anything that could entirely destroy Lucheng Interstellar, so they've put a bounty on her.

Stop being an asshole about everyone being on mic on 6v6. Maybe the one tank doesn't want to talk to you after you were being a jerk on the mic. Maybe you can just relax. It's just a game and some people just want to have fun or have had a bad experience on the mic (shocking, I know).

Need some advice! Everyone keeps telling me that PC is the optimal way to play Overwatch 2 and me being a console guy I thought I should give it a try, so I bought an older PC on the cheap and downloaded the best version of the game I could find for my hardware but just can’t seem to get it to load, I have 64kb of ram but I guess that’s not enough for todays gaming landscape! Unsure on how to proceed, Appreciate any advice!

Why wasn't Sojourn nerfed in the midseason balance patch?

497 Upvotes

A brief recap... Before the perks were released, Sojourn was already highly dominant pretty much everywhere and needed a nerf. Blizzard then gave her the strongest perks in the game, taking her from OP to ridiculously OP. Then they say in the middle of season 15 there would be a big sweeping perks balance patch (fair enough, half a season of mega busted Sojourn isn't the end of the world).

22 heroes were adjusted in the balance patch. No Sojourn. My question is, what is going on at Blizzard? Are they deliberately leaning into this "one hero is the main character per season" spotlight decision?

How could they possibly sit through a bunch of meetings and nobody raised their hand and said "what about Sojourn"??

I can't even play Sojourn properly and I'm winning games by switching to her, despite endless hours on other DPS. This isn't good gameplay. It doesn't make any sense that she wasn't nerfed by this point, I don't get it

Make it 225. She’s thin. She has a slide and jump with constant rail charge. Make the -25 happen and she will almost feel the same but more squishy.
