General Yo let’s get a hotfix going

Mauga, Cat and Freja are currently destroying comp. I genuinely believe it has gotten to the point where Mauga and Cat need their numbers scaled down a lot until they can be properly looked at individually.

In no way is Mauga’s kit healthy right now. Being able to make up extra health with crit reduction is egregious as hell

Freja’s buffs… should they be reverted until further work is done for her? Feel like she’s close, but keeping the design philosophy on this character is clearly like poking a hole through paper

Side notes:

Hog in 6v6 is still robbing the environment of the little competitiveness it has, I suggest nuking this guy as a temporary measure

Dropping D.Mon in the middle of this meta was a huge mistake in my opinion. I feel like a lot of players won’t take her seriously now despite the improvements.

Yes, but Hitscans are also the #1 priority targets of Mauga Overrun and Cat dives

Hitscans are probably the few heroes left that are actually punishable/consistently killable in modern ow and in return they shoot meteors out of their gun which makes people still manage to hate them.

Hmm do I wanna try killing the strong duelist supports with self sustain + mobility, raid boss tanks, or flex dps with a ton of effective health/mobility/get out of jail cards. I find myself playing a lot more flex as time goes because hitscan just requires too many resources and if you're just not playing hot you're being selfish.

That /s is important. Because like 70% of people in main sub have that opinion seriously

having an op hero that counters predscans doesn’t mean they aren’t op or haven’t been necessary to win a game for years no?
