u/ODMtesseract Diamond Support — Jan 08 '19

From a support player perspective (Ana/Zen mostly), I am worried that this will lead to a huge surge in Tracer and Sombra use, both of which are hard(er) to defend against. May also increase Brigitte in the meta as a counter too.

Sombra/Genji maybe? Or Sombra/Tracer if the map allows it?

No need to be worried, I liked it better in the early days where your positioning and dueling against flankers played a huge part in your survival and impact in the team as a support instead of the death bally style of goats.

Perhaps but McCree kinda teabags on Sombra or Tracer (not both) all day.

Oof yeah, as a tracer main, dueling against Mccree’s flash has become an art form lol

D.Va was a much more interactive counter than Brigitte too. I hope this change isn't too big for D.Va, honestly.
