The Varian changes are pretty neat, Im glad the devs are willing to flip their own conventions every now and then.

Probably just half his torso, his remaining hand might have stayed though its useless inside a Dragoon so it could also be amputated.

Fenix? More like PENIX! LMAO

XD

these varian changes look cool
also, good to know that they care about tracers performance

Why Varian rework ? i don't remember anyone crying about parry parry protected in the last few months.

He's infuriatingly bad until he gets his heroic. Any proper enemy team will stomp you before 10 and capitalize on your early game shittiness.

Tracer is cancer tho

How is getting his much needed heroic 6 levels earlier than anyone except chromie being a loss?

>Live by the Sword (W)
>Removed.
SHAME ON YOU BLIZZARD, SHAME.

>"Varian is getting destroyed"
>when you can oneshot anyone at lvl 4 with taunt since no cleanse

How many unranked games do I need to not be seeded from QM? Never played HL before.

>pick shit heroes to counter tracer
maybe in qm retard

>varian is getting destroyed
why are pandafags so fucking stupid?

Then pick Raynor the anti cancer
Because they are gutting everything else
>Shield Wall at level 10, Now also reduces Parry’s cooldown 5 seconds, but removes 1 charge
So you are going to make him a tank with zero escape and little survivability. Yeah that's exactly what he needs

Tyrande would like a word

You want to be given some pepper? Perhaps getting filled with daylight is more your think

good patch

Gez it's almost like when you don't counterdraft for a strong hero that hero will wreck your shit leading to nerfs.
You will, because you have self sustain and hit harder.

ESRB Bud, How do you know already know about this?

Its nice to see tracer get nerfed but why was hanzo untouched?

Cigar would change the rating of the game

really makes me think

Attached: storm_lootspray_static_carbots_probius.png (256x256, 25K)

>getting your ult at level 4 and snowballing the game
>not mattering

So the only reason people ever picked Tracer was because of Pulse Bomb right?
Because he has already dropped out of favour

>not knowing how to snowball a game
How's the weather down in gold? So that's why Nazeebo and Varian are so good at this level?

>Snowballing the game
>When everything else is getting a big nerf
His survivability as a tank and damage as an assassins is going to fucking plummet.

>no slabathur pose in spray
its trash bois

He just gained a low CD self heal though, and his early game power got much better.

Also keep in mind they lowered his health and damage but increased his scaling, so he shouldn't be hurt as much as you expect.

AHAHAHA

1v1 me on eu. Raynor doesnt counter tracer in the slightest. Tracer decides when to fight. If it looks bad she can just fuck off and get healed up

is that her dick?

the self heal can't replace live by the sword and the changes to protected is going to hurt him even more.
>, so he shouldn't be hurt as much as you expect.
Currently: At level 10 Varian's basic attack will do 123 damage
After patch: Basic attack will do 104 damage.
It will always look bad for her, so she will always fuck off because she can't do shit against Raynor.

But does overshitters unironically want thier retarded self inserts to mess up starcraft? I cant imagine anyone actually wanted zarya back in the machines of war event.
