I agree no one wants to play a big hero in apex in competitive. So how do you create that incentive?

Idk if you watched the EXP tourney this weekend, but every team had the same exact comp of wraith, pathfinder, wattson/lifeline. Leading to some pretty uneventful fights other than aiming.

I dont believe any character can have too many updates if it's refused to be played.

Really they shouldn't have had damage reduction/increases. They should have just adjusted base health pools. I think respawn is passed this part now though.

They should have just normalised the character sizes... Why beat around the bush providing fixes that don't create any change regarding the baseline problem : some characters are bigger than others.

@Anlbrd I don't really ever see that happening though to be honest. The amount of work that goes into remodeling every single character, and then fixing every skin isn't simple.

  It's true, The work needed just coudln't happen from Respawn currently. The changes to their money maker (Skins) would take sometime as well. I understand why Apex got big out of nowhere, EA paid every mass streamer to play it.
  
  i just don't think that Resapwn thought it was going to stay golden this long, so they started working on Star Wars, and now that is hurting Apex. In all though, a remodel of every hero is what needs to be done, no matter how long it would take. Apex is not Overwatch, i'm not sure why they keep going that way.

    They have another team working on star wars from the same studio.
    The different size characters are what make them unique. I appreciate it. Would they have made their lives easier by sticking to the sizes of all of the TF1 and TF2 models? Totally. My guess is the team didnt want to do that because then the thought process would be "why didnt you just release this BR with TF3?" The main thing people were upset about when AL was released is that it wasnt TF3.
    This game is its own. I personally dont feel like its overwatch at all, and I have a lot of hours there. It has every feel of the TF universe to me minus wall running.
    Back to the main discussion... finish the dome!
