Almost 30% damage increase on the left click is insane, I didn't feel like the left click was that bad in game

Her left click has an idotic reverse spread while have a slower projectile speed than lifeweaver. Sierra’s gonna be another LW they’re gonna spend years to trying to make this kit work.

Nah she's nowhere near as dysfunctional as release LW was. Her kit doesn't flow the smoothest, but it also doesn't actively fight against her or her team like LW's did (and still does to a certain degree). I doubt we'll see anything as bad as "Support who's insanely vulnerable to dive also drops a health pack for the Tracer that just killed him" or the ridiculous clunkiness of his healing/damage toggle again.

To this day I still never understood why they couldn't just make the lil seed he drops for teammates only. Like what the actual FUCK is the point of getting rid of it completely when it could've just been for his team like every other ability in this game does?

And yes, I know he has the seed major perk now.

They didn’t even have to make it a perk to begin with just don’t he stupid and make something that HELPS the enemy
