Gibraltar ult needs a nerf

Okay seriously now, his Ult is ridicilously strong, not only does it come down crazy fast but deals INSANE damage. I can't count the amount of times that ult has caught my squad off guard because we...

I hope you are kidding. Gibraltar is one of the worst legends, if anything he needs a buff, not a nerf.

I hope you are kidding.

Gibraltar is one of the best atm because of his dome + ult combo especially in mid to endgame.

My friend decided to play Gibraltar a few games and whenever we were getting put in a bad situation he would simply dome + ult and enemies would either drop like flies and/or back off which gave us the time to recover or flee the scene and replenish our health and take them out.

He is easily one of the best there is in teamplay.

No, Caustic is worst, then comes Gibraltar. The others seems quite balanced, so I say well done overall to the game designers. It's not easy getting this many classes balanced.
Ask or watch any pro \ high skilled streamer in this game. You'll get the same answer.

  How can the dome be used against him? Because you can hop in and out? In the same manner wraith's portal, pathfinder's zip line and bangalore's smoke can be used against them. Furthermore, you don't "easily" aim for the head, unless you are a very skilled player.

    We are obviously talking about skilled players here or else balance does not really matter. It might be that for some casual gamers Gibraltar is overpowered, but you can't balance a game purely for the lesser experienced players.
    
    Yes, other Legends can have their abilities used against them too, but the others are already so good it just keeps them from being imbalanced.
    
    However,you can still do a lot of damage with Gibraltar, the abilities in this game are not THAT powerful, it will just be a bit harder to win consistently using Gibraltar and Caustic instead of the other Legends after you've learned the game properly. I'm sure they will be buffed soon though so you might as well keep playing them if you enjoy them.
