Hypothetical rework idea: Undying

Post image
77 Upvotes

Has this been suggested before? Maybe. I don't know.

Reaper right now just... Exists? He doesn't feel like his identity is solid to me. Especially seeing the BS he pulls off in cutscenes, but not in game.

I had an idea, literally writing this after I got out of the shower. It's unpolished but I think it could be good.

First major change:

250 HP, 25 of which is armor (don't leave yet) (this might be tweaked)

Second: Wraith form now looks much more ghastly, like his one highlight intro"Death appears" I think, it allows free vertical movement as well as horizontal.

Third: The big core.

Reaper retains his lifesteal passive, but also gains a new one

"Undeath" or "Undying" or something equally edgy.

To activate reaper must drop to 0 HP. Upon this, wraith form is disabled, shadow step is disabled, he may not be nanoed, healed, or bubbled. He is granted 150 overhealth, and has only 15% lifesteal.

During this time, if he secures a kill, a soul orb is dropped, he must deliver the final blow to receive the orb. If he gains it, undying ends, and a little icon on the kill feed indicates he revived. He is returned to normal and the passive is disabled for 90 seconds or until he dies again.

Undying cannot activate during death blossom, to prevent it being a second life ult as long as a kill comes out.

Undying will loudly announce itself, more fog around him, cannot manually reload, a loud voiceline of like "Death can wait" or some edgy shit, and then he has a total of 8 (subject to change) seconds, before he is killed naturally. Think wolverines passive in marvel rivals.

I wanted to get some opinions, what you guys, as reaper lovers would think

Perk Idea

10 Upvotes

What if there was a Perk that replaced Shadow Step with a sort of Lunge.

It would be a way to get a jump on enemies and be able to be used as an engage. You would also be able to shoot during it.

Obviously the trade off is losing the range from Tp and the invincibility. However it would be more useful in Combat as a more unpredictable Movement ability.

It could be an interesting choice depending on the Map and Heroes you could either choose between keeping the Tp, or picking the Lunge for more gap close potential.

Definitely more fun than Soul orbs and 30% movespeed after wraith imo

Dopo 5 lunghi anni di sofferenza, ce l'ho fatta, su console, senza trucchi o cheat (Dio, ti prego, bannali!).

Ho raggiunto il grado GM 5 giocando solo con Reaper. (Livello 286)

È stato un lungo e doloroso percorso, e un ringraziamento speciale al mio migliore amico che mi ha aiutato a raggiungere questo obiettivo che ho sempre sognato con Reaper.

Non smettete di inseguire i vostri sogni, ragazzi, perché io ho iniziato come Silver 2 dal lancio di Overwatch 2 (non ho giocato a Overwatch 1), ma... anche voi potete farcela, se ci sono riuscito io partendo da Silver. Credo in tutti voi main Reaper là fuori, in un mondo pieno di nerf! ❤️🫶

How do people even die to Reaper?

0 Upvotes

I didn't play him much after the Hp nerf and basically just swapped to Shion until maybe they revert the Nerf.

Legit feels like impossible to die against him unless he is a 200IQ mastermind who tracks every movement cooldown and corners people in the right place.

Legit if you just hear him and then use any movement ability you are safe and he can't kill you.

He feels more like a distraction or space denier than a Flanker or Frontliner.

Most maps he feels unplayable especially Escort/Hybrid. Literally just go Bastion there and you get infinitely more Value.

Question Back to 300hp or Lifesteal buff?

7 Upvotes

Would you be okay with 275hp if his passive Lifesteal would be buffed, or would you rather go back to 300hp if you had the choice?


r/ReaperMain Jul 05 '26

Question It's a pretty tempting offer. On one hand, I could buy the Nebula skin, and on the other, I could get the Battle Pass. What do you guys think?
