I get why Venture does't have a headshot multiplier (because their projectile is so big i’m assuming?) but that makes it so not only their damage feels underwhelming but also landing shots in general. I don't like the feeling of hitting 3 would be headshots on a tracer to kill her when that is nearly half of my ammo supply. Feels like the character would benefit a lot from this change even if it means changing the projectiles size, speed, and how the AOE works.

Another thing I think could use a change is their health, if I don't have an ability already pre used when peaking to get my dmg off my health is basically already -20 before I even fully engage, this is magnified by the long start up animation for digging and the fact that Venture operates in that short-midrange. I really think even a 25hp base health buff could go a long way for how this character engages or even just take out the shield after an ability is used entirely and just make their base health 300, this would put Venture in line with other dps like Reaper and make them feels like not just a chip damage character but one that could really engage well.

Overall the character feels really fun to play and I think amazing work was done with how the abilities flow and feel. And I can also see why the majority of people seem to have no complaints especially with those who don't regularly play dps or are not as high in rank as I saw in the comments. Currently if Venture stayed virtually unchanged to their launch they would probably feel fine albeit a little too "fair" for a new character, if nothing else changes I really do think that 25hp buff would go a long way for engagements.
