Lucio PTR changes

[Woobels]

Will be reverted just like the ana changes. This is just a big fat nerf in disguise.

No it's really not, some of it is incredibly overtuned infact.

Granted it's probably a nerf to terrible Lucio's who love to basically afk and still have 90% efficiency though.

I expect the wallriding stuff will get nerfed because it's pretty insane, his aura will go up abit again (probably).

His boop being so good right now is probably just a bug.

i like the new lucio.

but i cant stand his new wallride speed, its uncontrollable and to make it worse he also get catapulted into oblivion the moment he gets off a wall.

they have to redo his aura visual.

the healing circle is barely visible on some maps

Still waiting for game-breaking Mei bug fixes, but oh my god, her pinky looks weird sometimes, better get on that shit!

He's already as hard to hit as Genji a lot of times. That's stupid nuts.

What exactly is broken with Mei? I play her all the time.

I play aggressive lucio so this is a HUGE buff for me, not even remotely close to being a nerf.
This is gonna be sick

Yeah this should be a buff for the highly skilled Lucios. A small nerf for those who run around at max distance and heal.

Nerf the distance but buff the healing? What? That doesn't make sense to me.

He means he actually has to participate in a fight, not stand 30 yards away and wank it with AMP

yep, I would argue a good Lucio is one that is at or near the middle of a team fight. add extra healing to that and I don't see much of a downside.

The aura visual is temporary until they decide people are used to the reduced range

I'd kinda prefer to keep the aura visual -effect.

I can see that, personally find it a bit distracted but def could see why people would like it. Takes the guess work away.

They reverted the Ana nerfs? Fuck, was really looking forward to those.

looking forward to non-defense ana?

thy reverted the nad nerf but they are still shaving off her damage.

Good changes to Lucio. Time will tell if his radius nerf needs a slight buff (Perhaps +5 meters). His wallride speed should stay as it is on live right now tbh, that was never the issue. But having a tiny speed boost when he lands on the floor after wallriding would be nice. Promotes wallriding more and could be used for getaways. Reminds me a bit of the Sonic games where he gets a speed boost with some upgrades after inputting a command at the correct time

She is rediculously OP and will stay so, until blizzard gives her a proper nerf. If it was up to me the grenade would do no healing or damage whatsoever. It's the single most powerful non-ultimate ability in the game

[Alopex]

So, basically, they decided that "the HotS team did this thing with Lucio, we should do it too."

Wall Ride
Trait
When moving alongside impassable battleground terrain and Structures, Lúcio can walk through other units and his Movement Speed is increased by 20%.

This works together with other Movement Speed bonuses.

Easy solution: Make it a personal toggle under Lucio's Character Options...

Her ult disappears if you die while throwing it. She's getting hooked by Roadhog while in ice block, and it also puts the ice block on cooldown.

The fact that it negates all healing in an aoe and is not an ultimate is ridiculous on its own. It should be single target similar to Mei's freeze and Sombra's hack.

Better than nothing I suppose.

It should only be 50% healing reduction not 100%... It counters zen's ult

That could also work.

[Very Tired]

You don't think that's by design? Zen is invincible during his ult so the only other thing you can really do to counter is knock him away at bit.
