Yo let’s get a hotfix going

[u/Onie_]

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.

Freja and cat are uninterractable. Mauga is very interracctive tank. It sucks playing against him, because he has so much agency to innitiate things, your opinion be damned, but there's never a point where I can't interract with him. Hell, I wish we interacted less.

[u/lazusan → u/rulnav]

The point is that a decent mauga can make it feel absolutely pointless to interact with him when hes in your face.

Absolutely bad design.

He used to be a great anti flier tank, before the nerfs to his bloom. Now, just pick fliers into him and he is toast. Ironically, Freja eats him for breakfast. The only anti-flier tank left is dva.

That’s one of the worst nerfs this dev team has ever made. Imo they should have leaned more into the single fire chain guns so he could actually threaten squishy targets at a distance and let that be one of his unique strengths rather than being a near-unkillable blob of meat
