I recorded this a fast as I could. I'll edit this comment on my thoughts after playing it for a few hours later tonight Edit: Tank - Last Stand | DPS - Trigger Happy / Frenzy | Supp - Resourceful are the most powerful passives and cover most of the heroes. I think the idea is pretty solid and I enjoyed my matches today, though they definitely need to nerf a few of them if they iterate on this again for another event. 8.5/10 could see this being implemented as a full pvp refresh in a few months/year?

@@KarQ hey karq, if you see this I’d like to get your take/response from someone who is not a fan of the pickable passives(me). Lets say for example I see a Junkrat, this Junkrat had the option to pick 3 passives, less explosive damage, drops 2 more bombs when he dies, or his cooldowns are reduced by 20%. It’s now on me to take a 33% chance and guess what he has where as it is now, I’m fully aware of what that Junkrat can do with 0 guess work involved.

Good on paper, but I wish they chose things that WEREN'T so game changing for some of the roles. The cooldown buff on heroes like Bap or Kiriko is gonna be extremely unfun to play against. The Tank ones seem REALLY good, the Armor one especially since it just got an enormous buff, while the magazine size one on DPS is a little underwhelming, especially on heroes that already have really low magazines, like Junkrat. In fact, very few passives seem like they'd be good on someone like Junkrat. Seeing low health targets is moot when he can chunk someone down from full anyway, the extra shot MIGHT be helpful but is far less impactful compared to other heroes, and the movement boost, while good, isn't that impactful when his best movement is on his mines. Beyond that, there's also the issue of visibility. How am I supposed to tell that Tracer has Slayer and can see me at half? Do I just constantly play paranoid? That passive's mere existence is a massive buff for DPS, since now everyone has to assume that DPS have it. Should I bother using Anti or Sleep on a Tank if I don't know if it'll be full duration? What if my team tries to burst down a vulnerable Tank but then suddenly they get all of their cooldowns back, and there's no way for anyone to have known that would happen? Lucio now gets to double dip speed boosts. I'm glad it's on a 2 day trial in QP but if it ends up anywhere near live I'm gonna be mad.

This is actually a genius solution to the balancing issue. It allows players to mitigate the effects of "counter-picking" in an active and personal way, while also giving the devs another "knob" to experiment with and change around every few patches. Tanks also wouldn't need all the extra passives and special interactions they currently have, so Sleep Dart and the DPS Passive could go back to working as normal on Tanks, as the "Unyelding" passive would result in a similar interaction to today's patch. If it was actually implemented though, the passives should be visible for everyone on the scoreboard, maybe even in the health bars.

This is a terrible take and a terrible feature to add to the game. All it does is take away the skill required to play the game and redirects the skill requirement to clicking a few buttons in the spawn room. It further dictates how every game is played out based solely on what loadout you equip inside the spawn room, instead of individual player skill and teamwork. It will worsen counter picking even more and literally 80% of every game will be spent trying to counter pick with the best heroes and passives instead of learning how to play the game better. It will also make balancing the game an absolute hell.
@RealEllenDeGeneres
Ай бұрын
Except the passives aren't really built that well to circumvent counter picking. The reduced debuffs, yea. But most everything else has nothing to do with counter play, especially the DPS passives. Additional ammo is just predicated on which hero you pick (some heroes don't really benefit from this). Movement speed while low? That's not a viable passive to counter assassin heroes. Just because you can walk a little faster while 10hp doesn't mean you're going to have any better chance at surviving lol. And if it activates while you're shooting, you might actually lose the fight because you aren't ready to suddenly strafe faster. Seeing critical health enemies thru walls also isn't really counter play. It just buffs snipers if anything. But it's not that useful in most situations because people who are low health tend to get behind cover. So you get to see the enemy 76 just sitting and healing behind cover. Riveting lol.

On the surface I like the concept of this, it feels like a good middleground between universal passives and just the base heroes some of which having passives. On paper at least, this should allow them to turn a knob and fine tune whole specific playstyles within roles which is interesting. This also makes the passives much more intuitive! (Although the decision to have them _on top_ of the normal role passives is strange to me, I assumed pickable role passives was replacing role passives but idk. Might be too much going on to have both). However, I think the specific passives have room to grow. They seem potent but are a bit rough around the edges imo. I could see these being placeholders and becoming more exciting things later on if we like the proof of concept. 3 specific passives for every hero would be awesome (LIKE PALADINS TALENTS!!!!), and they could even add some placeholder ones like the ones we have rn while making specific ones for all the heroes, but I think as much as it would support the first goal they mentioned (3:45) I think it's unlikely to happen at best ;w;

This is genuinely a good step towards fighting against counter swapping, counter swapping will still be a thing because that's still healthy for the game but it wont be as overwhelming

Adding passives to make up for weaknesses just removes the already non-existent counterplay against certain heros

There's a bug with the DPS speed boost. Deployables count as eliminations. Mei could deploy a wall and destroy it and get the speed boost. Which is actually really neat but definitely unintentional.

I would love this idea if it replaced standard passives. Going the Splatoon route but way more simplified. That said one of these doesn't feel like the other. Support's "resourcefulness" sounds broken as heck and I want to play it so bad

Now let me say why I don’t like this, when I see a hero, I know exactly what that hero can be capable of, but let’s say for example a junkrat has the option to choose between taking less explosive damage or drops another bomb when he dies, it’s now on me to guess what he has instead of just knowing what he has.

I was really hoping to be able to pick other hero passives like reaper's 20% lifesteal and put it on reinhardt, but this is fine too. I can tell this is experimentation for the counterswapping problem.

You get one Cleanse for every two Antis, I like the passive to run ability cooldown reduction for Kiri so you can catch up on that gap a bit.

Literally all the dps passives are good for flankers, I wish they had one that would reduce your cooldowns by like a second for 5 seconds on an elmitation stack to like 3 or something along those lines, the only really useful one for a character like widow is the ammo increase, as if a target is already low hp then you dont really need to see them through walls because if they peak then you just body shot them and kill them even with a low charge shot, and speedboosts plus snipers dont really mix well

They're polishing a turd here, I'm afraid. I don't want to have more armor to counter reaper, I want to be able to make a play without having to commit all my cooldowns to burst down one person that's out of position, just standing in main without their tank. It really feels like you can play in the worst positions and get saved in the nick of time because of the health pool changes and the support abilities being so busted. It feels like being proactive and playmaking are actually punished now. The health pools are too large, it's become a spam-off.

I think they need to find a better DPS passive in the mix. Ranged burst heroes like Junkrat, Widowmaker, Hanzo, etc. don't really care about the bigger magazines, speed boost on kill, or spotting low health enemies. The support's CDR is really good, but also a bit boring. It's not like the tank CDR which is more risk-reward, you're just generically better. I'd rather see some kind of condition on it, like "Healing allies earns you a cooldown refund on your next ability cast, up to a 50% refund after healing 1000 HP"

Would rather have pickable kits where every character might have some alternative abilities/primaries that you can pick and choose from to fit your style and matchup. This could make it so that there are more takes on the kind of hero fantasies that they are always talking about, as well as adding more variety to the game. For example, one alternative could be hanzo storm arrow vs scatter arrow. Another could be Ball's hitscan quad cannons vs the original idea that was him having close range flamethrowers.
