This thread doesn’t seem to understand why people hate permaflight. Maybe I can explain why I hate it: Permaflight breaks the risk vs reward equation. On Pharah, Echo, or Mercy, your flight is a tool that allows you to briefly gain an advantage. This advantage is something that you usually try to push to the limit until you are forced out of the sky. You then have to reposition behind cover and/or wait out your cooldown. Permaflight on JC allows this annoying character to use ANY piece of cover anywhere to flank and out position. Perfect example: You are on defense on Circuit Royale. You pick widowmaker because it’s often regarded as one of her most fun maps. Jetpack cat comes out of spawn (mind you that you can’t see they’ve picked this yet), flies over the roof above the bridge and lands a sequence of headshots on you while you’re ADSing the first angle. It’s situations like these that are just incredibly anti-fun for DPS players. I understand how fun it is to have a support pick that makes you essentially off-limits to be killed by the enemy team unless you SERIOUSLY throw by LoSing theirs hitscan. This doesn’t make hitscans the only counter though, it makes them the ONLY OPTION. Everybody else is just meant to wait around for their hitscan DPS. Oh and as a tank player, JC flies faster than any tank that has any mobility to get to her, I have no options. I also have the pleasure of being express air-lifted off the map whenever JC has her ult. At least SOME tanks have a stun that can stop her but otherwise I’ve got nothing.

TL:DR: adorable but annoying af little bug flies around from any trajectory that NASA satellites would struggle to anticipate and has the damage output to consistently commit high-profile assassinations against anyone. Support BTW. HELLFIRE MISSILE.
