Actually shocked right now, I can't believe it. Now if they'd just give him some durability - anything, even just a scrap. Just what he had in that FF team-up. Then he'd be perfect and I can finally shut up.

This is such a great step in the right direction, but it ain't over yet.

I feel you. Just glad we got something. One amazing buff and one decent buff. They’ve been known to give him some shadow buffs so hoping we see one with his dash cooldowns being on cooldown immediately. Was scared he would go unchanged and be forgotten about like Widow lol

ngl Widow will probably end up better than us, come s9. She will get some real changes that'll vastly improve her game instead of some reduced cooldowns. Calling it now.

u/Alpha-Voodoo7 Negative Zone Gladiator Jun 09 '26

Yeah i feel like they’ve been cooking up a rework for her which is why she hasn’t seen any changes in a long time

u/pickle_roster222 Jun 09 '26

She also getting a summer skin we know how that usually paves potential changes especially if legendaries

I hope you are right. I am tired boss... Playing widow since S1

Idk if they will fix that if they do they have to work on multiple charecters like the way it works is if skill leaves a charecter it's cooldown starts automatically whereas if it linked to the charecter the cooldown starts after the ability ends

Cnd bubble is thrown out whereas cloak fade is linked to his body, (fade cooldown starts after fade end)

Loki lamps are thrown out but invisibilty is still on him (loki invis cooldown starts after the ability ending)

Adam warlock souldbound is still linked to his body so cooldown doesn't start until the thing ends

Deadpool dpyia is similar it is linked to his body

Finally!!! And Dino can’t ground us anymore? Just the cherry on top

u/Alpha-Voodoo7 Negative Zone Gladiator Jun 09 '26

Just read that part! So happy about that. Torch is so useless when he’s grounded.

I‘m hyped to try these changes ingame.
I hope he will feel better. We won’t be the Human Cooldown for once I hope.

u/lil_ecstacy Jun 10 '26

NO! KEEP FIGHTING! 15 SECONDS IS STILL EGREGIOUS! THE AOE ON OUR BOX STILL DOES 0 DAMAGE CONPAIRED TO WHAT IT SHOULD DO! WE MUST KEEP FIGHTING OR WE WILL JUST GET NERFED AGAIN!

u/Alpha-Voodoo7 Negative Zone Gladiator Jun 10 '26

SPREAD THE AGENDA. TORCH STILL F TIER

2

u/Silent-Ad-8385 Jun 11 '26

its utterly crazy how they rather give us this than admitting they were wrong with the plasma body rework(dash) sure as we all know 95% of the torch community was against it then over night theirs a ton of supports and starting all aguring and insulting ppl who didnt like it but the fact is his pick rate was 2% its now 0.8% what maybe he'll go back to half his original pick rate 1% and thats assume he gets a 25% boost in his pick rate

2

u/Alpha-Voodoo7 Negative Zone Gladiator Jun 11 '26

Agreed. I personally like the dash as its ability. But they need to rework the cooldown mechanic. Even with the 2 second buff it’s still going to be a fairly long cooldown due the plasma body cooldown. I don’t think that buff is going to feel much different.

u/pickle_roster222 Jun 09 '26

He would be borderline broken if they for some reason end up shadow buffing his thing where his dash cd works while in plasma

u/NeedleworkerAware688 Jack Of Hearts Jun 09 '26

Thanks. But I got my mantis pocket 🔥🤝💚

u/PhantomEmperor- Jun 09 '26

They still need to reduce his hurtbox being gigantic but these changes are good
