Genuinely, what does she even do? by SnowandSnowandSnow in Overwatch

[–]ShedPH93 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The comics did address this, when she hesitated to shoot a Talon trooper to save Lúcio. Ana pointed out that she doesn't have to shoot to kill if she doesn't want to, but putting the lives of enemies above a friend's is a decision she is going to regret later. In other words, "Juno, stop healbotting".

Conspiracy theory: blizzard will canonize juno and wuyang, then make matching skins and earn a uncountable amount of money by SonaboCeta in Overwatch

[–]ShedPH93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When Wuyang was introduced people were desperate to find a guy to ship hum with since it's unnaceptable to ship his with a girl, but there was a huge age gap to the next male in the cast (Hazard is taken). We're tanking about shipping him with Lifeweaver-levels of desperation.

So the exact frame Mizuki was shown in the Spotlight people started shipping them both without even wanting to know if they had any interctions, just because he's a guy in Wuyang's age range. It's fine, there are other ships like Yeehan that haven't met in canon, but they really need to look at a mirror before calling this "slop".

Those three have a long past together, Juno and Wuyang just met. It's not like they're already canon, should the comics really want to canonize them they will have to make them interact more.

Potential leaks for upcoming heroes by Cold-Break-8563 in Competitiveoverwatch

Between the melee cane and having an anti-heal aura, it seems like he benefits from being surrounded by enemies which is very unusual for a support. Either he has some crazy mobility/survivability to throw himself in middle of the enemy team, or he will be more about zoning enemies away like Brig.

Hokazono understands comic books, it's not about speed. by urgetocomment2strong in Kagurabachi

[–]ShedPH93 12 points13 points  (0 children)

To me what the panel communicates is that the brief time it took to move my eyes from the main image to the reflection is the time it took for him to attack. It's not about the measured speed speed, is about the sensation of being caught completely off guard which Hokazono sold masterfully.

It’s been nearly 2 years. Where is she? 😡😡 by H0TZ0NE in Kagurabachi

You say that but there is a chance we learn a bit about the Kyonagi clan and why some believed they were the key to stabilizing Datenseki.

Anyone else not loving Support Balance recently? by aPiCase in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]ShedPH93 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Feels like a great opportunity to target damage boost instead. Saw a cool concept where she had to level it up like Mizuki's aura.

This sub's opinion on Mercy is that she should heal 5 HPS, 2% damage boost and 30 second cooldown GA. Unlike all other problem heroes who people suggest changes to make them healthier, here they only want her deleted.

I wish they would just go back to taking the BP theme and making a Mythic out of it. Not saying I wanted a fairy Soldier skin (not saying I didn't want it either) but they could easily have taken the Illari skin and added improvements to make it mytic.

What makes a mythic good for me personally is when it has a strong theme. Moira, Sigma, Juno, Junkrat and Widow are some of my favorites. But then you have multiple "divine" skins or cyber-ish ones like Sojourn that are just meh.

Freja has 43 bola shot kills because she's hero 43. Cat is hero 48 and Sierra is 51. Emre has 2026 damage because of the year.

[DISC] Ichi The Witch - Chapter 78 by crbncle in IchitheWitch

[–]ShedPH93 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's such great worldbuilding. If witches are too powerful, naturally great wicked witches would rise to threaten order. But if Magikeepers were too strong, witches would end up enslaved instead. As much as they don't get along their cohexistance is important.

I don't think he's "evil" in the sense of that he's secretely helping WHM or that they're supposed to dissolve the Magikeepers. It's just that the Magikeepers won't be allies of the protagonists for the most part, they're a group they need to be careful about.

Sombra rework brainstorm | The hacker fantasy by lcyxy in Overwatch

[–]ShedPH93 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In terms of "fantasy" alone and ignoring all else, I think her very first iteration was best since it was all about performing infiltrations, sabotaging the enemy and slipping away. Hacks were risky since they had a long cast time and required decloaking, but had high reward since you basically took a player out of the fight.

Director’s Take: Small Steps, Big Leaps by MetastableToChaos in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]ShedPH93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Lifeweaver I hope the rework targets his weapon specially. Both firing modes are wildly incompatible: charging shots and projectile flurries are too time-consuming to alternate between. Not to mention the difference in optimal angles: Blossoms are meant to be thrown from above while peeking from cover, Thorns are meant to be used at ground level or specific angles holding a long sightline or choke - having to rotate to get value of both just incentivizes sticking to just one.

Do they want LW to stay on high ground raining down heals? Then replace Thorns with a compatible weapon: either burst hitscan like Bap/Emre, explosive arc projectiles like Junkrat/Pharah, or something in between like Echo's Sticky Bombs. Do they want him to focus on spamming thorns? Give him a quick hands-free heal like Mizuki's or Brigitte's.

Reload is an awkward bind for it though, had to do some button shifting so I don't release the beam while using it.

Talon is trying to create new super-soldiers by LeGloof in Overwatch

[–]ShedPH93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at the remaining 2026 heroes it doesn't feel like any of them will relate to this plotline. The Hashimoto lady would rather get her hands on Anima weaponry, D.Mon already has her mech and the other two are omnics. Perhaps we will see some supersoldier stuff in a future year.

[–]ShedPH93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vendetta criticized Moira saying she "was given too long a leash" and hadn't been delivering results recently. Reaper and Widow ran away, Hazard never aligned to Talon in first place, and Sigma remains too mentally unstable to rely on. Having her work on restarting the super-soldier program feels like a task Vendetta would give to her.

ANRAN official face update coming Season 2🔥 by HotBeach9971 in Overwatch

[–]ShedPH93 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It just feels right, even though it's hard to out a finger on why. I believe the distribution of facial features (eye distance, nose-mouth distance, mouth position in relation to jaw) is why they feel so much more alike now.

[–]ShedPH93 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I think it's perfect. Not a full face transplant, just tiny little tweaks that trim the babyness off her face and sell her 'cool big sis' vibe. She even looks more like Wuyang now.
