Wattson in a good place ?!

I don't understand how people think wattson is in a good place, she has probably the lowest pick rate, even in ALGS, she is hardly picked. Caustic is just the more logical pick, he deals more damage...

@JimmyLad993 Caustic can also hurt his team I've been locked out of our buildings and gas has cut off my sight to the enemy. Where wattson doesn't do that.
Also Caustic runs out of canisters, wattson can spam her ult which once again recharges shields and negates everything thrown at you. Doesn't her fences do 15 damage now and stun not slow thats more than 2 tics of Caustic damage
Also 20 percent damage difference is not enough to cover shots hitting because Caustic is almost twice as big as wattson

@Ironflower196 No, her fences do not stun. They only slow, and they only have 25 health which is painful for her kit. She needs them to have 50 health for them to be effective again because Caustic gas destroys a fence in two ticks now instead of 4. She's not quite in a good spot yet, plus the devs are specifically bullying her since she made the meta camping for a few seasons.

    @Red_Fox_Skulk You're right sorry it feels more like a stun but it is just a slow. They have picked on her for being an extreme camper as well, but they tried to make up for it by increased damage of her fence. I'm fine with a small buff like that, I just don't think they should reverse her back to the must pick or rework her into a more aggressive character. Some thing I would like to point out tho is how her pick rate shoots up for LTMs. Specifically for the ones with limited resources as well as like the winter express. I love playing her in these modes she is invaluable in them. I am sorry she is not a fun pick in pubs tho, but they really should work on rampart. Atleast wattson is a winner.
