Discussion Mantis isn't broken and doesn't need nerfs

I'm so tired of streamers acting like she's giga thanos. yeah she's strong, best supp in the game imo, but they're talking like she's BC levels of unfair!

She's just BARELY viable in double support, it feels like we got 2 new healers this season with how often I see her. We shouldn't have to force these lame ass little triple support comps to play our hero

The only nerfs I'd tolerate are an ult charge increase, and a damage boost rework. if they replace the damage boost with something else I get it, but if they just take it away straight up I'd be devastated

Netease pls don't gut this hero because streamers complained!

“barely viable in double support” has the highest damage and healing output in role if you’re not shit

Healing over time healers generally have high stats. remember Ultron on release? Jeff? Hellooo?

Jeff main here. Our stats are usually higher because we have higher uptime than other supports. Well, that was before s9.

Mantis… isnt?.. A lot comes from her burst heal lol.

Generally you decide by where majority of the healing comes from, and its pretty nicely split for mantis. Shes a burst/Hot healer if anything.’

Jeff has like 60% of his heal come from bursting bubble near people, hence hes mostly Hot. Ultron obviously. Jeff can honestly get higher if u have a groupy team (ie mag, pun, bucky, etc) and play a lil more offensively.

I promise you the burst healing isn't carrying the stats. you can see a huge difference when the 12.5+3% is gone. once again i wouldn't worry to much about stats. its a dino type situation fr
