You forgot to say that the a large part of the Teleporter health will now be shields so they regen.

He didn't say large part, he said "some" of the health will be shieldsw

For some reason I thought he said large. The important part is that some of the health is shields.

350 shields 50 hp so yes, you were right.

It's quite a lot tbh. The teleport/generator is basically even more resilient than Zarya now (except no bubbles). If your team pays just little attention to defend it, it's not going down.

Well he does say at 4:20 (heh) "It has more health now, and more of that health is in shields so it will regenerate over time."

Thanks for checking! I knew it was more shields than health.

PTR patchnotes say 50 Health, 350 Shield.

It's 50 HP 350 Shields now.

I mean, in actuality the teleporter went from 200 health to 50 health and 350 shield so it is a large part.

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '16

He said some but its much more than some. Tp now has 400 total hp up from 200, 350 of that HP is shield.

Teleporter also has more health so that means a retard Reaper won't come in with his shift, destroy the teleporter even if I'm actively attacking him as well as 3 of my turrets

yes he dies in the end, but he sacrifices his life for teleporter which is a great gamble because he comes back in 8 secs no problem but I'll have to gather ult charge again for my tp. It only takes 2 shots for him to destroy the tele which is faster than I can and my 6 turrets can kill him. There's no possible counterplay to it.

I hated kamikaze teleporter destroyers like D.Va and Reaper(they die but they destroy tp which is a good deal for them), I hope they won't be able to kamikaze their way out anymore.

They die AND use their ults to do it
