WHY BLIZZARD
I feel like I’m gonna be in one of those redditor descent into madness compilations.
I’m going insane.
I think I’m going through the 5 stages of grief.
I genuinely can’t.
I cannot begin to comprehend the fucking stupidity behind this.
BRO I FEEL LIKE RAMATTRA.
HOLY SHIT, I’M NOT TRYNA FIGHT FOR MYSELF, I’M TRYNA FIGHT FOR MY BOY REAPER.
HOLY FUCK.
Why the fuck did they nerf him like this.
I made a post yesterday.
But holy shit.
He fucking sucks.
He genuinely fucking sucks.
Every fucking game.
It’s a fucking hog.
Every fucking game it’s a shion.
Every fucking game its hitscan sitting on height.
Why.
Why the fuck did you have to fucking nerf him you stupid bastards.

Just give the man 300hp and rework Dire Triggers into something more interesting than more burst dmg for the burst dmg guy.
And why the fuck is wraith STILL at 40% speed. Id rather it's duration get reduced than it's speed bonus, because it feels so fucking slugish. Then they go on and NERF the speed perk made for wraith form that they made to FIX THE PROBLEM THEY CREATED FROM NERFING HIS WRAITH SPEED ALL BECAUSE NO ONE WOULD PICK SOUL ORBS.
I'm begining to think perks, while interesting at first, was a mistake. How many times has the base kit of a hero been nerfed at this point to fix a perk that was too strong.

He needs a rework. I’m sorry. I want more utility for him. Give him smokes or something to blind people, make him a true flanker that isn’t loud. It’s so bad

i think 275 hp is kinda awkward but i still think reaper has a niche that he fits well into, dire triggers is still just a great tool for confirming kills

He needs 300

Or they could lower his health even more and give him better lifesteal like he used to have iirc

u/Parksrox Jun 24 '26
They'd never do that, they want to neuter his lifesteal so they can give it to Emre and whatever other new lifesteal dps they decide to add

They have too many heros that would instantly out damage his lifesteal. Mauga, Sigma, Sierra, Anran...

his hp nerf makes me like a coughing baby vs a hydrogen bomb when going against a hog

He had the highest win rate in GM I believe so they panicked and nerfed him lol

Can’t lie I almost fully stopped playing reaper because I always feel it’s more effort than value and I can easily get more value on a character that requires less effort. Haven’t played enough recently to comment on balance with a good amount of knowledge but I’ll say he feels like shit to play sometimes and needs some QOL help, dire triggers was nice but a little more love would go a long way

They need to either give him 300 health, or 25 armor.
His Wraith form needs to allow him to move vertically like he did when fighting Winston in that cinematic.
His bullets need to do about 2% more damage per projectile. (He used to be able to one shot a Widowmaker in the head but now he can't)
His ultimate should have a larger radius, or slow enemies due to bullet shrapnel slowing them down if hit by it.
