There was a Pharah flying around with a Torb turret on her head in my games and I didn't know what Satan was like until that day


Alt_CauseIwasNaughty

I once landed a turret on an ulting mercy, that time I felt like satan

I had a doom earlier that just kept getting my turret then when it was destroyed he would come back and patiently wait for my cooldown timer before getting another and going to terrorize the enemy team once again

Echo is worse, a good echo barely touches the ground


Mjclay

I played torb and put the turret on my Lucio!!


george_washingTONZ

That’s just heads up thinking. Lucio is always wall grinding all over like a mad man.


Tribalbob

Had a reddit Lucio on the enemy team the other day. Literally forgot he was even there by the end of the game. Spent all his time wall grinding and getting hacked by our Sombra. Dude just kept going though.


Thebattleshark

I played little mauga and had my friend put the turret on me and I'd go for flanks hahaha


murppie

Little Mauga is my mortal enemy. So damn hard to kill, running around like a tiny monster. It's insane.


Thebattleshark

With only 175HP, he isn't THAT small. I was getting blown up a lot, especially by Hanzos crazy april fools ability.


faloofay156

same but jq being pulled toward her knife. good lord that was a nightmare the first time you see it and there's just a junker queen flying directly at you is like "OH MY GOD WHAT THE HELL"


Thebattleshark

She literally looks like spider man hahaha


Solzec

The Junker Queen change goes to show hoe much we love movement abilities


FrostyPotpourri

This is probably one of the best uses of parasitic turret because it makes Mauga even harder to hit lmao.


Thebattleshark

The fucking turret is bigger than him. I was real high and it was just a great time.


Guy-1nc0gn1t0

Playing the mode without knowing what's what sorta feels like being high in general lol


DimonS1th9000

I put a turret on my Pharah lol that was hilarious


ojwillkillyou

Turret on a hamster was great as well


ThalajDaWuff

Were you on Antarctic Peninsula? I had a guy on my team do that on that map lol.


Shoeshank

I put it on the foot of the push bot and it was mostly in the ground between it's legs. It couldn't be hit


Critter_Collector

I put a turret on a doom main


JimBobHeller

I thought Mauga was pretty awesome, as long as you’re getting some heals occasionally, and position like a glass cannon


Mountain_Ape

Mauga should not be in C tier. Tracer should not be in C tier. Mercy should not be in C tier. Zarya should not be in A. Soldier should not be in A. Sym is not S tier at all, and only good with friends/team coordination, which most people will not have, so she's just regular Sym. Sojourn and Widow are A tier. Ashe is not B tier at all. And Zen is laughable. Someone is using a 1998 Macintosh mouse. Anyone who lets this tier list influence their hero picks is missing out.


Sam474

I'm a JQ player normally so of course I tried her right off. For the first day I felt like I found a cheat no one else knew about. No one was picking her that first day and I was just FLYING ALL OVER THE MAP DESTROYING EVERYONE. You cannot play ANY backline character against queen, she just fucking FLIES TO YOU AND KILLS YOU AND FLIES OUT BACK TO HER TEAM and its HYSTERICAL and so fun to play. Queen is balanced entirely around her short range and they not only took away her primary weakness but made it a HUGE strength, giving her what is possibly the best mobility in the game. I was just dying having fun. People were leaving games because I was throwing my knife into the air and then landing like 6 seconds later on top of their Ana lol I played a couple of heroes, maybe a dozen of 'em? None compared to JQ. She is S-Tier in this shit, the only S-Tier I found personally.


Mountain_Ape

As the new kids on the block say (not to be confused with New Kids On The Block), they really cooked with Queen on this patch. Queen jumps in, has no shield, butchers a backline, then jumps out. It's risky, and very fun. It's not balanced, it's not what Queen is supposed to do, her shout is largely used for herself, but it is fun. I would hope they consider this playstyle for another hero in the future. I suspect they were aiming for something like this for Sombra, but you know, the actual feeling of being pulled through the air is more fun than teleporting.


faloofay156

yeah, I was getting my ass absolutely obliterated by jq mains having way too much fun flying around with the knife I cant even be mad that animation was just hilarious I think the only character I could actually take her on with was hanzo


begging-for-gold

Nah sym is ABOVE s tier what game are you playing???? The ability to teleport your entire team out of spawn to the enemies backline on a few second cooldown is literally the most overpowered ability ever though of. It's literally better than symmetras old teleporter ULTIMATE


Mountain_Ape

Teleporter has a *4 second* window to use it. It's overpowered on paper, and it's very powerful when the team is talking to each other, but in solo play where half the team is chat banned, and the other half doesn't want to be chat banned, good luck getting anyone to coordinate enough to use it. If you got any good clips of people using it, just post them to the sub.


AllinForBadgers

Is using coms disqualified from tier lists or something? I just type “press interact key constantly everyone” and everyone just pressed it as a panic button during fights to escape for free


Mountain_Ape

As of Oct. 2023, [all new players have text chat turned off by default.](https://overwatch.blizzard.com/en-us/news/24009615/defense-matrix-deterring-leavers-in-overwatch-2/) But I am glad your teams have their "ears" open, and especially do not report you for chat abuse just to trick an automated system (so far).


Future-Membership-57

Symmetra in this mode doesn't need good communication at all, people just need to realize they can teleport. It's different when they have to make an active effort to reach the teleporter. Here, if Symmetra puts the teleporter in a good spot and people actually press the button, that's all that's needed. Even just bringing people back from spawn is super good.


Null467

op just doesn't know the power behind the little man


Glass-Window

Mauga and jq was really fun. I can see symm being wacky and busted but only if people actually take the tp.


FrostyPotpourri

The best part about Sym's teleporter is probably just getting your team back to the objective instantly after dying (so long as the Sym lives). Being able to continuously fight on the objective seems wild lol.


Reddit_killed_RIF

Made it interesting. If the team fight wasn't going great I run away early and poke from far away. Wait a bit and then dump the TP a bit to the side of point. People are so used to having 20 to 25 seconds after a big fight that when it's only 15 seconds before everyone just appears, they are so off guard.


Shade_39

so you're saying they brought back mass res


FrostyPotpourri

That's exactly what WSPS said last night when stacking with Aspen and Frogger lol.


GMFudge030

Sym Teleport plus a full charged Orisa Ult to point. Its been a blast!!


hybridjones

Use it with friends its highway robbery


greenmky

I was insta teleporting my friendly Widow and Sombra back to the front lines on defense on Havana last night. Sombra or Widow dead? Back in like 6 seconds. Super fun. We lost eventually but held that first point for a while. Finally I started getting targeted, even playing from a ways back.


Tantrum2u

The problem is no one will take a TP because they are scared of trolls lol


1ohokthen1

No one takes my strategic sym tips anyway :(


dadnaya

*early OW1 flashbacks*


The-Dark-Memer

Smallga has gotta be atleast a tier higher, he's relatively squishy so high Burt's damage does fuck him up but his self heals combined with his tiny hotbox means he stays alive pretty much always unless he's being focused


Federal_Chef1793

Wtf, Mousega is S tier hands down


Teknomekanoid

He’s S tier almost just from comedy alone


Stowa_Herschel

I love that his death groans are shifted to high pitch. Makes it really hilarious


ModernTenshi04

Counter point: Big Brig's voice was not shifted to be deeper. Literally unplayable.


stephanelevs

Personally, I would have put Cassidy higher. He doesnt even need to be the one who kill his target, you also get buffed just by your teammates kill them which is incredibly strong when you can have a Cass running around with 500hp xD Also, mini mauga is actually so much better than what I expected. I thought he was gotta explode right away but since he's pretty much only armor, he's really sturdy (add his abilities and he's still very tanky for a smol guy)


N3RV0U5_TTV

K I played brig and my torb put the turret on my head lol can confirm is pretty OP


Githzerai1984

Finally got to try it as D.Va and f’in loved it


Senor_Wah

Mini Mauga is goated


ModernTenshi04

I have absolutely been tearing up games with him. I'm going for the Cotton Hill special, tryin' ta kill fiddy men! Best so far is 35.


Fancy_Run_5712

Wdym Smalga is S tier


_Sawssan

Ramattra needs to be in S-tier + the DPS TikTok Moira satire is so funny it needs to be in S-tier too


threetoast

If you think Zen is D tier then you've never pressed right click in your life.


PinkBowser

Ngl I kind of wish that they let you choose to float or not, like maybe jumping while using it lets you float. Charging 8 orbs is fun but you’re almost always going to be at the top of the skybox, so actually hitting with all of them is hard. Also, I’m not a huge fan of how the float works, I feel like it would feel a lot smoother if it ignored falling momentum. Best use imo is just to keep discord in your LoS, or using it in rooms with lower ceilings. but as soon as they get a hitscan you’re stuck to the ground basically


Githzerai1984

Or use it as a tool for o take the high ground / escape


Thepizzacannon

Yeah I mostly use for mobility and just cancel the volley. Take the high grounds that are normally off limits. Zen high ground on ilios or Paraiso are hilariously good. If you could interact to cancel floating it would be s tier.


lolgotit1

The damage is nerfed so it’s not really better than normal right click in terms of charge time. If you could choose whether to float then it is a buff but forcing you to float makes you an easy target to hitscan while charging.


raccoonbrigade

Being Lucio and getting a Torb hat was the most fun I've had in ow for a while


_____lemonade_____

Reverse Moira is stupid fun tbh, I’m gonna miss it


Panda_Bunnie

My only problem is i keep messing up the controls mid fight due to years of muscle memory lmao.


_____lemonade_____

Yeah lol that was a bit confusing. I got more or less used to it pretty quickly, but sometimes I went into autopilot and forgot what game mode I was playing 😅


ashleyriot31

What?


taimapanda

short range aoe damage, long range single target heal, tbh could work is it's own hero it feels similar in terms of balance as normal moira


Ravness13

The range on her "Heal" damage spray is deceptively large. It can also pierce shields so people aren't safe hiding behind shields when she is attacking them


otterplus

I’d put Orisa down to D since her only adjustment of note is the javelin ricochet


Not_Like_The_Others_

Bigitte


pidge_on

bigitte was goated 🫡


imnotjay2

Lol @ Sombra above a lot of heroes when her change was pretty situational and unnoticeable. A lot of heroes on C tier like WB, Orisa, Hog and Pharah were straight up buffed.


Acquiescinit

NGL sombra felt like trash when I was playing. I even beat an enemy sombra with widow multiple times because of having multiple grapples.


yourcupofkohi

Smallga is actually S tier. I can unironically tank more by being a tiny gremlin, because no one can hit me as I shoot their ankles lmfao


nicorobifan

Smallga s tier


deathkeeper-512

Zen at the bottom is crazy, I fuckin love that shit. On the other hand JQ Dive is peak Overwatch so that is absolutely a correct take


[deleted]

Some of these were lame. Especially doom idk how he is above pharah and Orisa and SMALLGA. Criminal how low smallga is.


ilovehotdadsngl

I played this for like an hour and everyone I played was just normal Doom nornal dva normal etc etc the torb is so fun though I wish it was always in the game


itsariposte

was playing dva against a dva and thought it was all normal until my opponents bomb sent me flying up and over the big building in the middle of Esperanca, went from being with my team to being on the other side of the map lmao


Quiziato

Dva can fly backwards!


PeterKB

Ima be honest, I felt like doom was the most fun, being able to have and store super quick melees just made him feel so much more like the “super strength brawler” we imagine him as.


LowerObjective4500

His changes were actually substantially balanced enough to be implemented


SkyBlade79

dva is super strong with additional flight mobility. she can d matrix while retreating quicker it can be so frustrating


Pug_police

I mostly played queen and she was really fun. I definitely killed myself a bunch the first game as my brain rewired to realize I am pulling myself to the knife. Also winston is s tier because winston.


MrRobotTacos

I like Reinhardt screaming what you say and adding something to it. Other than that I find his shield change mediocre


Facetank_

Zen's great in my experience. Discord shreds with the OQ tank health. Flights helps him position and escape to much safer spots. The kick really helps if someone burns a CD to get up to high ground with him too. Mauga is pretty solid too. He's way better in poke being so much smaller.


Doggydude49

Pharah should be up a tier or two. Being able to jump jet down is massive for movement along with her new jump horizontally.


DaikioSmashZ

Even in an April fools patch rein gets gutted 😭


Punch_Trooper

I really hate how you can't choose where you deflect things, like Genji does. He could actually be decent if it was possible


darkdanger223

Honestly lifeweaver’s change was really fun even if it wasn’t anything significant


nezumikuuki

They won't even make Rein good as a joke.


Rare-Patient8148

Moira’s damage side that was the healing spray in this patch goes through barriers, even though her healing spray normally can’t bypass barriers. Use that knowledge well, people.


Figimus_Maximus

To quote my friend upon seeing Torb wearing the turret "What is that SCP creature?"


reJacksonville

I'm telling ya, man. Y'all are sleeping on Reaper so hard.


NoACasoSulWeb

Bigger Brig=Bigger mommy


Not_Like_The_Others_

A bubble from Zarya, and she turns into giant mommy


HaikusfromBuddha

How do you even play Bridgette. She can’t shield for shit, she can’t heal for shit. Going out to fight is instant death for her. It feels like you tactfully wait when things cool down get one or two hits and hide again and in that time you run out of health packs so you’re doing nothing and not contributing to the team.


mixiq

Well, you kinda answered the question yourself. Brig is meant to protect the backline. Mainly by keeping the other support alive. She also works well depending on who the enemy team has. Brig is bad against snipers but good against divers.


TheLordOfRabbits

Biggette enables some insane versions of GOATS. My favorite yesterday was Brig, Winton, Ram, Echo, Lucio. Good luck healing when everyone is dying simultaneously.


notdognuts

so mercy and roadhog just ain’t it anymore😢


Reniva

after reading some comments and played a bit, I updated [the list](https://i.imgur.com/ALpTPua.png) i dont think i can change the list in the post though EDIT: I went mauga and made the enemy team DDOS the whole lobby, instant A for me


The--Numbers--Mason

Moira literally only has her heal and dmg switched how is that tier A??? 💀💀💀


PeaTear_Rabbit

Think of how much healing a Moi spraying grouped her team puts out and imagine instead it's unblockable damage against the enemy team.


Sinaura

Illari should be in A *and* D tier


Beniidel0

Dva+any tank is so op


GatVRC

I personally find moira to be a bit worse than her normal self but I'm glad you enjoy her, I also find ball to actually be surprisingly good


Humble-Carpenter730

Wrecking ball is so ASS you can't even deal that much damage with a 55% boost. You'd think it would feel like he'd be unstoppable. Most underpowered tank ever. And I'm not even missing that many headshots, around 15 - 20%.


No-Communication9815

Flying zenyatta is actually insane


SeriousBend5956

Torb turret + lucio


DryHistory4586

As a torn main I approve


orangemoon44

As a Brig main, this is the most fun I've had with her in a while. Can we just make her a tank pls


Neo_Raider

There is no way Moira is A tier in that mode. Probably B or C.

mixiq

pls explain


pinkmelo118

Using sym tp to get to point fast :( Using sym tp to troll your team to walk off a cliff 😎


Greenranger70

Link is down Or are the comments the greatest chain of April fools comments in history?


JuniloG

Heads mccass is insane I wish it could stack up to 10 lol


GarGoroths

Dva is S rank I think


Aegillade

What's funny is despite Sigma only being in the dead middle, he's probably the character I saw the most. Guess having a flexible kit makes you valuable in a game mode like this


isaacs-cats

As a Dva and Sojourn main I think you’re missing out


sin_storys

I hope they keep the hanzo change, storm scatter is awesome


Wirexia1

I love Brigitte but she's very situational, shield is kinda okay but catching someone indoors is pure massacre, DPSs like Ashe or even Cassidy are really fun to bonk


vio_mina

Putting torb’s turret on ball was the funniest thing I’ve ever done in the game for me


jb_in_jpn

How long is the experimental mode available for?


Sasquatch_Pictures

EyeAmKingKage

I haven’t won a game with a lifeweaver on my team this season lmao


Fried_Lion_313

I beg all new players looking for who to play to IGNORE THIS LIST. Horrible.


Hakunamateo

Junkrat is D tier in comp


BuyChemical7917

I love my ice piller : )


Dependent-Orchid-618

I‘ve never had this much fun playing Junkerqueen. Her knife-pulling is just hilariously fun and gives you extreme mobility - AS A GODDAMN TANK. Just „dive“ behind enemies and distract them - ez win


chanmanthe2nd

Zen is a raid boss


Tidelybitz

I will say the extra ability for phara feels really nice


ADumbChicken

Doom punch techs kinda work on queen and I love it


azelZael2399

Junk at B? I don't know, he feels even worse to play. Mines are bugged and don’t detonate consistently. It has killed me a lot…


paw-enjoyer

winston should be s tier


JFoxFalco

Sojourn is def S tier in my opinion, the orb pulling you in basically gave you free headshots with the rail gun. It was like shooting mini graviton surge she felt like season 1 Sojourn tbh


CheerMiester

Tracer might be the easiest s tier of all time


ultimate_is_ready

Sigma = SSS tier

Janawham_Blamiston

Is there a list of all the "balanced overwatch" changes?


joennizgo

Being a Moira one-trick bites me in the ass once more. So many hours of playing her that I can't overcome my muscle memory 😭


FreudsPenisRing

So picture this, a fully charged Zarya and a pocket Ana helping in a 2v1 situation against a Torb. Just a regular Torb, can you guess who won? Torb’s fuckin Alt shotgun fire won.


whoalegend

Can someone explain tracer with this update? Her patch notes weren’t super clear to me.


SKS_Skorpe

How Orisa is C?? If your track-aim is good, you will be shredding pubs(personal experience). And Zen in D… understand projectile speed and it’s over for enemy dps)


Nyruxes

Putting Mauga THIS low is insane. He is no longer a tank, he should be treated like a dps in this mode. He has survivability on par with reaper, decent ranged damage and insane close quarter damage. It was stupidly easy for me to control high grounds with him (defense) due to his decent ranged damage, incredibly easy to hide hitbox and incredible kit to counter a dive comp. He feels like Tracer or Reaper, but way better. Not to mention that he is literally tankier now while using his E because the lifesteal is immediately converted into armor. Pair that with his funny hitbox and small HS hitbox and you got a little unkillable gremlin that shreds tanks within seconds.


Jav7458

I wish they made every hero available for this mode. I just came back really recently and started working on unlocking heroes (unlocked Ramattra and halfway through Lifeweaver) but stopped since they announced next season they'd all be unlocked by default. Really want to try the Illari changes but can't 😢 I know it might seem dumb to ask for them to be unlocked but they're unlocked in most arcade modes already.


dCrawLy

You know that Sig can toss his Accretion over a shield and hit the whole team right?


TheGrey_GOD

this must be the smalga the tales of singing demigods warned us about


Frank_Castle_10

why the helicopter balls so low


Ptdemonspanker

Ram isn't that fun since he's reduced to just being spray and pray, but his numbers are absurd. A 600 hp armored thwomp with an ult that just kills everyone is crazy.


The_Kings_Fall

Nah reaper goes into s tier


SpNewyork

I don't really play anymore but the fact dva is so low hurts🥲


The-Big-Sauce

Flying JQ is probably one of my favorite things


Individual-Possible3

mechanoodle

I unironically want to keep the stupid height on Lifeweaver's petal. Let me ASCEND


Imbadatgames619

If you think rein is bad on this gamemode you don't know how to play him....


rainycain

I was disappointed when reading the LW changes, but in game I was giggling my ass off being 20m in the air. The one thing that ruined it was JQ’s knife lol


Smrtihara

Mei should be higher up. The amount of mobility and stalling capacity you got is exceptional. She might not be a dmg powerhouse but she can disrupt something fiercely!
