WATTSON NERF?! COME ON!

Respawn? Really? Nerfing wattson? She is already a very situational character by desgin right now and nerfing her makes her completely irrelevant, now what? I have to go main some other legends now? Seriously! Low profile? For WHAT?! She maybe agile and small but not the point where she is like tiny and un-hit-able. And interceptor pylon from 3 to 1?! Make it at least 2! Then what's the point of ultimate accelerant if you nerf her main ability that's related to her passive?!

  • Her passive is basically useless now and so is the character.  RIP Watson, Respawn ruining their game again... 🤔

    Absolutely. Is just like fortnite and epic games trying to pamper to casual now. She had a steep learning curve that you know, professionals and try hard tried to mastered and now she's done for.

  • Completely agree that Wattson did not deserve a nerf, and I'd wager that most people were actually anticipating the opposite with her fences upgraded to do more damage. None of these changes feel justified with her larger hitbox and vulnerability of the pylons. If only one can be active make them invulnerable otherwise the utility of her passive and ultimate is greatly reduced.

    The argument is that in the high level games she's a must have and has a high win rate, but when those games make up less than 1% of games played and most of us are not aim gods, well you're making an interesting character a lot less interesting. At this point I can't see any reason why I'd pick Wattson over Caustic....revert the changes and give pro lobbies their own rule sets.

  • What was the point.

    Wattson was just fine before. Not that many people even use her as a main anyway but now why would they?

    Why should I?

    Everything about her is to help keep the enemy away just enough for your team to recover (which I thought was the point), I think 3 pylons as a defense is fair since its non lethal, I mean look at Caustic.....

    Respawn please look into this further on the next patch update

    ...Papa would not be proud
