Theres only been 3 genuinely broken things imo in Overwatch's lifespan and that's Fan the Hammer Mccree, Pre-nerf Dva and This current Bastion.

I can somewhat agree to that.

Although, I dont think bastion is OP just good at everything. Defense, tanking, dps and heals. (himself)


I think the most Op thing this game had for a long time was genji

Remember when he had all this


  • Double jump no longer resets when wall climbing
  • Dash no longer deals damage to traps like Widowmaker’s Venom Mine or Junkrat’s Steel Trap, and no longer bypasses Junkrat’s Steel Trap
  • Swift Strike no longer interrupts quick melee attacks
  • Dragonblade duration has been reduced from 8 seconds to 6 seconds

Bastion is ruining the game and this is the first time I've said this about any character in the lifespan of this game

He's not that bad. Ana is STILL a hard counter too him and 76 still eats him alive. He's more viable, but still a non-factor so far in my competitive pre-matches.

Oh Genji was a monster but you had to know what u was doing to really be annoying. That 8 second dragon blade was evil though :scust:. To me, anything that is OP has to be super strong and super easy to use.

So dumb, ana was a combat medic and a good one.

I mean I see the point, she's still good at healing but less at combat but damn i hate the OW community. They cry about everything until its nerfed or buffed.


Junkrat not hurt by his bombs is lowkey kind of big.


So is the translocator cooldown reduction, that was actually one of my suggestions as was the Winston buff.

The zen buff is really nice to with all the barriers in the game now.

ana was overpowered :manny: and blizzard doesn't really listen to the community in regards to buffs or nerfs.

Back to Lucio and zen all over the place


Ana wasn't OP imo, she did what she did well, but it was all up to the players skill.

She was able to do too much for her role, that's like saying Genji was fine just cause of his high skill cap

If that's the case the should have either just nerfed her damage or her healing. If those numbers stick she won't really do anything well, can only heal herself for 50 health every 10 seconds and has no escape.

i dunno man.

oh well I was just learning her anyway. But boy was she fun. lol

Her kit is the problem

Sleep, we all know how game changing her sleep is

Heal deny, which is pretty much a game changer/instakill

Aoe heals, as well as very respectable single target heals and her nade buffed healing as a whole

We can't act like an offensive Ana isn't a joke

You can't even sneak up on her/kill her for being out of position sometimes cause of her kit while every other support gets punished for it

Easiest ult buildup as well since she's a sniper and has a lot of freedom with her positioning
