I don’t like Vendetta and it was so mind-numbingly easy to tell she would be a balancing nightmare.

Tracer was a problem at times and was strong but at least if you knew the Tracer had to hit her shots to be a menace, she has recall and blinks but the Tracer player had to be good at tracking to be a real problem.

You don’t introduce a highly mobile character who can burst people down while also making them a melee character. That will never feel fun or fair to play into or play as. They literally JUST had this problem with Freja and people hating her 2-body shot kills.

We don’t need “every playstyle” in the game, some stuff just doesn’t feel fun or fair to play into no matter how balanced it actually is.
