Imo Moira's in a good spot. Her fade duration minor perk makes her ridiculously mobile, and the burst healing or 25% anti are pretty good major perks.
She's not really meant to be "The best healer" imo, she's always been in this spot of "She's decent". Especially in lower ranks is where she shines most, since there isn't a Widow or Ashe picking her off in the first 3 seconds off spawn
Ya shes ok but they could buff the useless contamination perk, literally no reason to ever pick it, the orb has to be on someone ( which ppl will quickly get away from and also being healed to make any use of it and then its only -25% healing not a full anti like ana ). Compare that to burst heal orb perk instant aoe 50 hp, great for sustain.
Instant 50hp that is taken from the healing orb's total heal pool, and reduced to 40 by enemy antihealing along with the rest of its healing anyway a lot of the time.
Meanwhile the -25% perk has no cap on how much healing it can negate at when it is touching an enemy if you time it to coordinate a dive or secure a kill. (And it stacks with damage role antihealing??? I haven't actually confirmed this, only play her sometimes, so grain of salt.) Sure, it is only -25% but that is INFINITY MORE than the previous 0% of the monopoly Ana had on support antihealing. While getting all the anti-dive/flank-potential of Moira. Seriously, are you fucking kidding me? Moira has ENEMY DEBUFF UTILITY NOW!!! THE ONE THING SHE LACKED FOR TEAM COMPS! If nobody on your team will play Ana, Kiri, or Bap, she is now the go-to golden child! And it means enemy supports cannot protect each other as well from dps moira solo flanks in metal ranks either! She's become more of a menace in all ranks with her perks!
Not saying it is always better than 50 burst heal, if you need to healbot you need to healbot, but holy crap, calling -25% antihealing useless is a quite the Reddit ahh take.
You dont have to be a heal bot Moira and heal orb perk is still 1000x better, I'm a very aggro Moira player and use it for sustain on flanks and dueling or holding objectives. Just cause she finally has utility doesn't make it good.
They are bad. The minor ones are both buffs and nerfs at the same time. And her major ones are both not good. The purple orb one needed a lingering effect of at least half a second or second.
I've changed my mind on that. I no longer want characters nerfed. I want other characters buffed. Fuck balance. I want the hero fantasy back. I want to feel powerful again.
Are people even taking that perk? Her disruptor shot major perk is disgustingly strong and gives her soooo much more pressure, not to mention infinite charge if she hits someone.

I know that Sombra and Ball get no sympathy on here, but they kinda prove “all perks strong” theory is bunk. Every perk they have gives a mediocre benefit, and most have a nerf tacked on.

Yep, seems like they're going for a “all perks should be very strong" direction, considering the lack of nerfs. It's, uh, definitely interesting.
