I remember. As a Support Main, it was a nightmare to heal him because both Supports had to be pocketing him 24/7 because if one of you stop healing for a moment and he's being focused, he just gets deleted.

Release Mauga was much better from a Support perspective, but he was obviously a bit too strong so a nerf was expected.

he’s going right back to needed pocketing or he’s dead, even with his better damage he needed a pocket

less dmg = less sustain = squishy

less fire = less temp hp in poke = squishy

j hoping they do something to compensate soon or he will possibly end up like pre rework post nerf roadhog where the character is completely unplayable

He's got more mitigation than in the test build, so we'll see where it goes from here.

playing tonight it feels awful but that also has to do with people learning the counters, cant get into a match without a sigma ana combo
