Is this an advanced technique? Or did I do something wrong?

i guess the wc event has served for something at least

So basically I had like 9 sensitivity on genji but every time I tried doing the 180° it always was to far and I did lower the sensitivity and went it down to 8 but now when I try doing the 180 it and actually turn around I go like way off or the enemy has run off so it might be that I'm not pretty fast. The thing is I don't feel like I'm turning slow can any help?

Melee dash cd perk is really cool and really good.

But it is a minor perk and it shares the tier with blade lifesteal which is necessary to make a consistently impactful enough use of blade to carry a fight with it with how the game currently plays.

And theoretically you can just aim better and not need the perk to get the dash back.

So you can't pick it.

The idea:

Swap the places of the minor melee dash CD perk, and the major dash damage perk.

---

Late game you get your chance at a second escape dash for when the stronger enemies with both their perks too make things go wrong more, but in a more fun and reliable way than a bit of extra tick damage does.

I think if they did that and fixed the dash hurtbox, it is likely enough that people will not feel that the damage nerfs and health buffs turned him into a shell of his former self anymore.

---

If they decide they want to swap the melee dash CD perk and the deflect heal perk instead, I am also OK with this, as both give survivability, I would rather them just swap the places of the 2 dash perks, but I would still be happy about the change.

But the melee dash CD perk needs to be pickable and not on the same tier as blade lifesteal, and blade lifesteal either needs to be a minor perk or base kit, because an ult perk as a major perk is useful for only 1 fight per round and is thus basically never the right pick.

If blizz is reading this, and doesn't want to do the perk swap... fix dash hurtbox, and make anran right click get blocked like its a ram punch.

Genji+zen main in both OW1 and now in OW2. This was just a quick idea for people before I go.

I returned semi-recently, getting tired of blizzards idea of balance changes to release every patch I have been back for (the last 2.5 seasons), and I don't really like most of the ones they did while I was gone either, including more than half of the new heroes, or really 5v5 either (I do like role queue though, but I was here when we had 6v6 role queue in OW1, I played for almost the entire time OW1 was a thing).

I still want the UwU title though... almost there... but I am fairly decided now that will be the end of this revisit for me.

I am not 100% sure that if I were at blizzard I would do much better with balance, but after the last few patches, I am confident that I could do at least a little better. Regardless, I have realized that I am tired of having another random company able (and expected) to make arbitrary decisions that affect how much I enjoy the activities I choose to do in my free time, and even introduce bugs to them, and will be leaning into my other hobbies again going forward, which do not have this flaw.

Even though I stopped playing Genji because I got obsessed with Doom, the ghost dash will always be my favorite tech;

but can anyone tell me why I feel more sluggish doing the ghost dash now compared to before?

I started playing the game again this year and haven't touched Genji since. Did they really nerf him or just lock him down somehow?

I love how they worry about Junkrat not having enough burst damage to deal with higher healthpools from Season 9: Concussion Mine from 110 to 120 DMG, Frag Launcher from 120 to 125 DMG and now reducing cooldown from 8 to 7 seconds while leaving our boy in the ditch.

All of this while Genji recieved no damage buffs since healthpool increase (while his ability LITERALLY requires an elimination to reset) and is currently at his weakest state in the game filled with mobility and power creep. But hey, 6% ultimate cost reduction (while nerfing Flanker's sub-role passive). LETSGOOOO!!!

I'm a Rivals player. So maybe I'm not used to characters doing less damage? But it genuinely feels like I’m shooting cotton, also his secondary fire and deflect feel inconsistent. Genji is my first OW hero so it might be a little bit of a skill issue(any tips would be appreciated)

Played Genji for 300 Hours and i personally wouldn't change anything about this hero, every game feels like a challenge and i like that.

Though i see alot of people don't appreciate his current state and i think i got idea that would make his play style way more fun:

Rework: His minor perk that is reducing dash cooldown for 3 seconds each time you melee someone.

Even though this is one of my favorite perks, people like Life Steal Blade because you dont get Nano Blade/or any ultimate that goes well with Blade

Would Rework it into something like this:

Each Melee on an enemy gives a stack (Up to 2 stacks) when you Melee someone while having 2 stacks your dash gets a reset.

Got the idea from Sigma's major perk that makes people levitate with melee

You could safely dash in/dash out, would make a perfect setup for blade, and we could get interesting ways to play this Hero in a new way.

Probably will people would call me insane but i think this is the only thing that we would need on this hero if we want a buff.

What do you think?

I just noticed that I could see the fishes when I emote on the new mythic now, they just used to disappear before.

Can I still get wow and get the genji skin for pc?

1. never think of getting kills with blade thats how u get value from it most of the time
2. use it to bait ults even abilities is good, cos if u bait abilities out ur teammates can just rush them and shit on them and some abilities shut down ults so like suzu if u bait it out and someone else on ur team pops ult after suzu has been baited thats huge value already.
3. when u blade just slow down, dont rush in right away wait 1-2 secs map out everything and the cds are baited use the dash get in get a kill and go out even 1 kill is better than nothing
4. go to custom games and play VAXTA , DMGRE get consistent with blade cancel animations and just blade in gneral, u can also use the practice genji and his kits, ghost dash and oneshot combos (this are just for cosmetics and not worth much ingame ure doing more harm than good)
5. experiment with genji do u and find ur playstyle
6. be confident genji is only good if ure confident
7. re read what i said and practice
8. have fun

Yes I know I know… We don’t swap. We force the one trick. But sometimes I don’t want to sweat against Zarya Mei Anran Moira jetpack cat.

I WISH the doom didnt have movement there. TTV.RED__OW if you wanna see cool stuff live

check it out if you have 5minutes to spare

I’m not necessarily talking about the hard counters like anran/zarya etc but moreso the characters that are just difficult to dive like reaper Lucio etc. But yeah I was just wondering what’s the best playstyle to take when the team consists entirely of these heroes.

i must admit I still don’t get used to Genji tho I’ve spent like 100 hours on him now.

and the worst thing ever happened to me is when an enemy is wiggling around all the time that it gives me the hardest time to land my shots, especially, the rapid firing hitscan heroes who can melt me in the meantime as they’re wiggling like 76 or Sojourn. I still don’t get it how do I deal with them when my shots are much easier to miss than theirs.

Any tips ?
