Wanda And Storm Need A Few Changes
I don't use Wanda, but I tried her out in the practice range. Her primary attack has WAY too much leniency with its beam tracking, especially when compared to similar primary attacks like Dagger's. It snaps way too far from the cross-hair, easily twice as far as Dagger's can from his cross-hair, allowing her to attack flying targets much easier than most of the roster. Her primary fire also does % max health damage which allows her to shred through tanks just as easily as a 250 HP support, with her secondary fire is used to finish supports faster.
Wanda's ultimate is also a pretty big problem because of its 100% Max HP damage in a wide AOE. Yes, you can stun her out of it like with Peni's secondary attack and a few others, but if you can't your options are to either hope the Wanda is trash and flies into line of sight early to get melted or just die if you're in the AOE. I feel like her ult should only deal 80% Max HP at most, not 100% Max HP to even auto-kill tanks, even if that is lore accurate levels of power from her.

As for Storm, well she's pretty bad. I love Storm's character design and what they were going for with her kit, but she does next to nothing. Her primary fire is way too slow a projectile, her secondary fire is a meh lightning beam at best as well. I like the concept of her AOE field granting buffs to allies based on if its wind (movement speed buff) or lightning (damage buff) along with her ability to amplify them to effect enemies. The amplified wind slows enemies within its range..... but it's nearly unnoticeable so I think its slow should be doubled in strength, and the amplified lightning causes lightning strikes onto enemies within range.... she's a low HP flying character that has to get into medium range of enemies to zap them, which is a problem.
I'd rather Storm's amplify mode enhance her entire kit. Keeping in the AOE field effects, but also having the amplify mode increase the travel speed of her basic attack and have it slow enemies it hits, and having the amplified mode make her secondary attack double in range and AOE explode to stun all enemies near where it exploded.

Wanda is fine. Her damage is pretty medicore, most people in the roster including supports can kill her before she can kill them, but it does become a skill issue. However there are some heroes that outright counter her or just give her a bad time, like Dagger and Peni Parker. Dagger just destroys her she seriously cannot duel a Dagger who knows what she is doing, unless she gets the drop on her. Peni has too much sustain and Wanda cannot destroy her turret, and Peni can just web her up and she is deleted.

Her ult is fine. It has a huge telegraph and you have ample time to get out of dodge. If she and her team outplays you and catches you in a bad spot, that's fine, working as intended.

Storm though... the only thing she is good at is getting assists. She needs rebalance or rework. I would rather see her in the Support role honestly.

Storm just needs an ability ths let's her free fly like ironman for a few seconds, or go between walking and flying.
