She looks really awesome! Although I was very excited to get that Turkish hero instead.
she's an anti flanker healer
there is a god

Sounds like she has a really nice kit. I play Tank a lot, and Zen is one of my preferred healers and she sounds like she fills that kind of space so I just hope she plays as good as she sounds.
she's up on the PTR if anyone was interested.
she's a dive healer
her basic melee has some range, it's about the same length as meis m1
she'll be an absolute sitting duck against anyone out ranging her

anyway she's a dive anti flanker healer. Having trouble with flankers as a healer? Go her. Running dive comp? Go her with lucio

i mean in terms of healing she can't heal effectively unless your near melee range, she has some minor spot healing but it's not enough when you need actual healing for the group but that's not her role anyway, her role is dive anti flank which healers have been having issues against flankers since forever

With that whip shot, she might do well as a bunker-breaker, too, for spots like Hanamura's choke at Point A. You can mostly hide around the corner while still being close enough to melee through barriers, and whip shot can knock out someone and clear the gap for a push when barriers drop for a second.
She'll be terrible for open-range fighting, but every hero needs weak spots.

If that repair pack does 150 healing, which I saw suggested somewhere, that's 150 healing every 6 seconds, which is 25 HPS all by itself, used on CD. Zen's orb is only 30 HPS, and less "bursty" (which is a disadvantage).
Her healing on melee strikes should put her comfortably ahead of Zen's healing in the mix of things, especially given that it's AoE, and the ability to stack on armor (particularly in the opening moments of a match) during downtime can't be overlooked either.
What bugs me is that the flail, from her point of view, gets smaller in front of the enemies in a very obvious way, which breaks the illusion of depth.
Okay, the repair pack definitely does about 150 healing, and it looks like it might cap out at about half that in armor, so maybe 75 armor? Not sure if that's a cap or a 1:2 conversion rate.
Repair pack isn't really a "pack", it's a targeted short-range heal. If you've got no target, it doesn't fire at all.
looks interesting
wish it would load faster the ptr
Doesn't appear so, no. There's no way they could easily make that work without making it a physical drop like Torb's armor packs; if they made it self-target if you didn't have a target, then any time you "miss", you'd burn the heal on yourself and go on CD.
If you're meleeing dudes, though, THAT heals you.
played a few games on the ptr:
her heal range is longer than I expected
first ability is basically reverse roadhog hook
brigitte vs brigitte: her shield is useless because the flail will hit you from the side
no real heal and no real tank but still a good hybrid
all in all looks like she will be my new main support
