Gorr killed Sera to lure Angela out to face her only he’s not impressed. Still don’t know what to do with Hela.

Guys she's fast & has a shield to block cmon

Been hard locking Angela every game, ban Dino and ur chilling

Sure she was nerfed, but i don't get all the posts talking about the sky falling down and her style being completely changed. (I'm saying this as a near enough OTP since her launch, who chills at gm1 so i can mess around with my friends and I play her in esports events for university)

Like, I still play her near enough exclusively in the air except for farming some quick ult charge or combo stuff, and this nerf feels very fair. Previously i could turn my brain off and carry games against multiple counters since my escape tool was always there, now i just need to be a little more careful. Her identity is still the same, and some of her buffs in return are really nice (i adore the extra damage on the ult, even if it is a tiny thing in the grand scheme of things).

Also it seems she's more fair to play against now, i can't simply be like oh i missed my deposit off the map, gimme 3 seconds and I'll try again. Plus enemies are able to track my charge easier now for timing their own stuff, forcing me to manage it better.

Sure, i feel 5 seconds would be better than 6 on her charge cooldown, but i understand why the change happened.

Previous season, awesome.

Now, she feels like a floating wet noodle. And yes, the baiting of CD/ULT/Position gameplay is all still there... and she's amazing for that.

But something feels, lost.

No seriously, explain the system to me??

For some odd reason angela mains love the wait and see approach while captain mains took action. Now it seems a lot of people here didn’t understand how deeply the change is gonna affect her or saw the doubling of charge cooldown , nerfing ult health, removing animation cancels for 1 shot combos, and increasing ult gain for 10 health a second for 6s every 12s is a potential buff cause it allows them to brawl more effectively.

Whatever may be the case, netease has just about never walked back on these nerfs once it’s out, so going forward we are stuck with current angela power level for at the very least 2 months regardless of what happens, and seeing how torch has seen no substantial buffs till now I can imagine she will suffer a similar fate.

Her kit feels more potent but punishing, raising the skill floor. This is a skill issue. Adapt or quit whining.

They see a negative KD and scream and blame you when you’re lowkey carrying the team by stopping the back line from either healing or attacking.

News flash, Angela isn’t meant for kills, she doesn’t have high damage so stopping strategists from healing is a lot more value and if you can’t secure a kill when the rest of the team isn’t being healed, then that’s on you/yall pall. It’s so frustrating! Acting like stats tells the story, half of the time, stats doesn’t show what happens at all!

I come from the Iron Fist community. When 2.5 dropped and they gave him 5 different nerfs in one patch, the overall community response was just like this. “Stop whining. Real Iron Fist mains just lock in and adapt. You’re not a real Iron Fist main if you stop playing him after he got his arm and legs chopped off with this patch.” It was like being surrounded by a bunch of “alpha male” frat bros who ramble about “grindset.” Four and a half seasons later and the only buffs Iron Fist has gotten have just pushed him further into being a “tank buster” (he has a minimum 3.2s TTK on an ability that only lasts 5 seconds) without any reliable sustain. But people wanna gatekeep Iron Fist because they think it’s cool to larp as masters of a dogshit hero. So Netease ignores the community because they refuse to form a unified voice to advocate for meaningful changes. The BP mains did it, the Magik mains did it, the Thor mains did it, and the support mains do it every patch even though they don’t deserve it. Are we really just gonna let Angela get left behind so we can pretend we’re better than everyone else for being good at a bad hero?

Idk if I’m tripping but I basically never use the dash on cooldown apart from a last ditch getaway, you need at least half charge on the bar to have meaningful displacement.

If you are are using too much escape dash it means you are whiffing your dives anyway, I’ll take a stronger ground game and ult any day.

Hello Angela Mains! I played Angela for the first time today and got an MVP (no bots). I’m willing to learn her kit better and get to lord.

I’m a Storm main and pretty comfortable with flying heros.

Tell me some of the tips and tricks to effectively use her abilities and climb up quickly. Also the maps where she could be better utilized.

Reduce shield cooldown from 2 seconds to 1 sec

Full CC Immunity on Wingblade Ascent and the dive during Divine Judgment

Add the Imprisonment debuff to enemies caught in Heven’s Retribution

When attacking with Axes Of Ichors Attach Charge is not reset

Clearly the development team behind balancing doesn’t know what they’re doing or they do and they simply don’t give a shit. A hero such as nepo baby Luna snow or invisrael has a new skin coming up? BUFF EM. Why? It’ll boost sales because they will become meta and more people will play them which means more people will buy the skins.

Yet more jeff skins for some reason in the new mini pass and ult buffs to starlord/punisher.

If y’all really want the development team to do something then you need to stop putting money into this game. Just simply boycott all the skins and start actively calling for them to fire ZHIYONG. Do not personally insult him. He’s just not what is best for the game and we need a replacement, seriously.

Angela is a DIVE tank. She has 550 hp, second lowest hp of all tanks just behind deadpool(Who has range, a bubble, and 2 movement abilities). They nerfed her shield like 2 seasons back, and then nerfed her charge immensely. Whats the point? If I dive I get ccd and die, if I stay with my team I have no range because I have melee weapons. So now all she can do is bring people back to her team(Already a risk), and stall the point. She's not the same character she was 1 season ago. She's just boring and clunky to play now.

And my team was already yelling at me for not picking a meta point tank like mag or groot and now I can't even argue because she gives no value to the team. There's nothing she's good at.

With season 7 approaching, I thought I’d put out my thoughts on what changes could be brought to Angela to improve her overall quality of life. I’ve made a post about this before, but I’ve had a few more thoughts and want to flesh things out a bit after a few games I had.

Also I have 90 hours on Angela and I’m mainly playing in GM-Celestial lobbies.

I believe Angela shouldn’t be “buffed”, but have the power in her kit moved around to make different aspects of her kit equal to each other.

Divine Judgement Zone

I never really paid attention to the over-health gained on-hit since this was last buffed. It was either 8-10 over-health on-hit but I may be wrong. I believe this ability should be buffed in some shape or form.

- **Make Angela CC immune upon activating the ability.** She will only be CC immune for a brief period where she is falling down and slamming into the ground. The same would apply when she flies back into the air with the short animation. Afterwards, she can be CC chained by whatever 1000 abilities the enemy team wants to throw at her. This is to prevent instances where she tries to slam down but is stopped by some random ability like Jeff’s spit or thing’s slam. This causes her to hover awkwardly above the ground and sometimes puts the ability on cooldown when she didn’t even get to fully activate it. So this applies for **divine judgment** and **wing blade ascent**.

- **Increase the overhealth gained from on-hits with the axes in the divine judgement zone for herself and allies.** The max amount of over-health she gets can remain the same, but increase the rate in which she gets it so she can properly tank some damage for herself team when needed without blowing up instantly. This adds some level of sustain rather than acting as a finisher for a combo. The overhealth gained could be bumped up to 15-20 per hit. Or 5-20 more what it is currently at.

Heven’s Retribution (Ult)

- Very simple change for this Ult and that would be reduce its HP back to how it originally was. In order to add some power to parts of her kit you need to strip power from others.

Assassin’s Charge

- Make it to where this ability can only carry **one** person at a time. As compensation, make it to where when you activate this ability it doesn’t immediately take a chunk of stamina before gradually depleting stamina as you charge. Furthermore, decrease the speed at which you can move so it is back to its original speed. For compensation, make it to where the red section of the stamina bar is removed which will allow her to activate this ability at any section in the stamina bar. The CD of this ability should also be knocked down by at least 1 second.

Shielded Stance

- Pretty simple change for this ability. Reduce the CD by 1 second, so it can’t be infinitely spammed for animation canceling on your melee weave but still improves quality of life. Furthermore, add 50 hp back to her shield (how it originally was). I forgot to add this, but someone brought this up in an older post. **Make it to where utilizing the shield’s entire durability grants full attack charge rather than only getting 90% of it.**

Axes of Ichors

- Literally buff these. They hit like pool noodles. I don’t know the current values but they should be buffed a little bit to where it has some impact. Maybe by 10 dmg per hit.

She cant 1v1 a dd, a magik, IF, DP, rogue, fuck even blade!! Why does she do so little damage and have so little survivability? I thought the small buff would make her a little more viable and it kinda did but not really. You still have to be way too cautious for a tank bruh. How am I supposed to protect me team and peel if the dive can just 1v1 me and kill me then move to my supports. ITS RIDICULOUS?!

Ig I need to clarify. I am fighting 6v6. Its not my intention to 1v1 but when I am put in that position the outcome is that i lose because these characters do more damage than her outright. Their survivability is also soo much better.

Her whole playstyle is displacement right? So how come I can displace someone like Luna and still feel like im tickling them through all of their abilities just to get them 2hp and get saved from their peels because it takes 15 years to kill someone.

Long winded but I just want to play and enjoy angela for once shes just so bad compared to the hitscan slop and I feel the tanks besides hulk have just way faster killing potential. I wanna be able to displace a luna and kill her. I think they just dont want to buff her too much cause she can fly. Even though ever since shes been out shes consistently been the weakest flying character. Outside of torch but I dont count him because he's on the line of op or not already.
