Still mad they ruined Horizon

Why make a lift last for 10 or 12 seconds or whatever it is, if you can only be on it for less than that before getting launched?

Just make the lift the entirety of the time you can be atop it.  If its 5 seconds then have it last 5 seconds.

Her Ult has always been almost useless.  And her tactical is what made her fun.  Now its so slow, such a long cool down, as it accounts for both time the lift is active (even though you can only use it for half its duration) and then the timer starts.

Meanwhile, they NEVER addressed the ONE issue with her that would have made her balanced from the start.  SOUND.  You cant hear her go up, you can't hear her land on you.

They could have shortened the length of time the lift lasts to avoid it being a snipers post, and added better audio, and she would actually still be fun to play.

Now her lift sucks so hard its easy to 1 clip anyone who is going up it.

You dont have to make characters OP, but stop taking away what makes them fun to play.

  • @CocoaHyenaPersonally I feel like Horizon should of been instantly knocked off from the moment she was released because just having the ability to chill up there and heal or shoot during fights was a pretty decent advantage when it was in the game while the closest thing we had before that would of been octane’s jump pad which only keeps you airborne a few seconds

    I have been playing her some lately and she doesn’t seem bad by any means, her tactical can also be used to stop enemy teams from using the gravity cannon’s on storm point and speaking of gravity cannons you get launched pretty far after landing due to her passive

    @TheApexLegendNub If they significantly reduced the cooldown time I would be all for turning it into a repositioning tool that didn't allow you to sit atop it and instead just to lift you and launch you like a mini jumppad! Thats how I use her lift anyway
