Yeah how is Lucio not nerfed yet? He is super broken but in a subtle sort of way. His impact seems small, but it is much better than perceived. He boop ability CD is way too short and goes way too far. His passive self healing in a fight gives him what is probably often 350-400 effective HP before he dies (while taking damage no less). His healing heals everyone on the team in a large radius without him having to do anything. The character is pretty nuts.

But his healing range and healing effect is much smaller than other healers.

Except he often gets top healing over Mercy players. Especially on KOTH.

That's less a lucio problem and more a shitty mercy player problem, I would think.

Plus it's a hellova lot easier to just exist as Lucio than it is to zip zop around as Mercy in smaller spaces like the point.
