The balance was already quite good. The adjustments they made were always going to be very minor in most cases and almost all of the things I had ideas for were implemented.

People want to lower the skill-gap by making good players worse but thankfully NE isn't that deluded.

Hela having 25 less health and needing two headshots to 2-tap will make her much more vulnerable to melee flankers like Black Panther or Spider-Man.
I wonder how the playerbase will react when Mr. Fantastic drops with an ability that deflects/absorbs damn near any ult in the game on like a 14 second cooldown

I doubt anyone will care considering cap's shield already does the same thing.

They're also allowed to be terrible at their job and cause people to leave because they're sick of fighting the same character LITERALLY every match.
That argument is loaded though, because you can literally use this argument with ANY character that is strong. Even if they get nerfed, the same argument can be pulled on whatever character is next to rise in the meta.
Do you not know that specific characters are boosted every season? That is one of the reasons why certain characters are OP. I believe Hela is one of those characters who got the Season 0 boost. Future seasons will boost other characters and they may become OP too for that season.

Only difference is no one plays Cap so they'll say Mr Fantastic is broken the first time they realize they cant maximum pulse the enemy team 50 times uncontested.

yeah plus the wolverine "nerf" is hardly anything, and even moderately skilled wolverines make games unbearable and borderline unplayable for tanks

They're buffing everyone while giving op heroes slight nerfs. Eventually it will even out, we'll have to see.

Thats like almost every character, I've had wolverines who feed. Just sounds like that Wolverine is a better player or just had a better team. These characters are usually dominating against low skill players but come back in line when it gets to higher elo. The balancing is so all over the place that a single character can dominate as long as you have a competent team.

The problem is this game appeals to casuals and casuals make a majority of ranked given personal anecdotes of peoples experiences with ranked.

Whether or not it should appeal to casuals is up to debate but longevity wise it is probably the best idea.

I have no idea what is the real cutoff for low elo but I got to diamond in less than 100 games and a 60% WR/positive hero K/D/As across the board and thats where I plateaued. There are people in lower ranks (bronze/silver/gold/plat) with over 500 ranked games played. These are half the people you are getting qued with.

The average ranked player is quite literally just bad at the game.

I had a platinum game where a jeff solo ulted a punisher who was ulting, and he had 0 concept of what being CC immune is. This was in Plat, so it goes to show people playing ranked don't care to understand the game or are just dumb. These are the lobbies where wolverine go 56/2/5

There is no such thing as everyone being OP in a game.

There is always going to be a group of characters with straight up better frame data, hitboxes, and tools than others.

Ever heard the phrase: “If everyone is OP, nobody is”?
complaining about numbers without giving it a chanse to see how it actualy will play out is kinda mind bogling.
on paper it doesn't look bad
if nerfs or buffs are to big then people would just cry even more
small changes can still have big outcomes.
