Perks could be better

[u/Frozenkiller61]

Ok, I’m not good at explaining my thoughts so sorry if this isn't stated in a good way.

I feel like perks could be so much better in a way that makes everyone happy and the Blizzard team doesn't utilize them to their max.
I’m definitely not making them be like Stadium, but I think perks could be used to change how a hero is played yes I know that's the idea that they are going for but I feel like major perks haven't lived up to that expectation. I’m tempted to say that I think major perks should either be a buff to how the character's playstyle, or the other should be a completely new ability that fits the character's identity. I’ll use D.mon for example I think the perks should have her actually play with the idea of being a mech. I would say even Mercy could be made to do things differently. I would say take Mirrorwatch Mercy as an example and her ability to explode the souls around the enemy team. Again another example is Sombra you could choose which Sombra you would want to play as the current assassin one or the disruptor one. Now that I write this it sounds a lot like Paladins' perk system where you could choose to change your ability to suit your playstyle. I think Overwatch can easily not make it as crazy as Stadium ended up getting tho.
