The Season 9 Hanzo experience (Placements)

Trying out some new hanzo ideas live on stream today twitch.tv/arrge (or youtube.com/arrge/live ) DROPS ONLY ON TWITCH THO (cool zen skin + weapon charm)

Hanzo mains didn't want it for headshots to be easier, it was about earning those headshots.

Hanzo mains: spamzo isn't real, he can't hurt you. OW Devs: ...about that...

I can’t lie seeing a lot more hit markers really spiked that dopamine. However dinging a stupid Moira in the head and seeing her just fade away hurts.

They took the one shot potential out of Hanzo and Junkrat. Although its frustrating for other players to die from burst damage these hero's now rely on spam damage and less on mechanical skill making them less fun to play.

The changes they’ve made to Hanzo ironically makes him exactly the thing people complained about Hanzo

High Masters Hanzo main here. I have kind of found a way to make this hero work, even with my original play-style as a short flanker with no pocket (currently haven't lost a game yet). My main problem with this hero though, is while he's more consistent from fight to fight with the projectile changes, if your team is not playing properly, your own personal value drops off drastically, even if you're hitting all your shots, due to his limitations. Basically it feels like he has very little to no solo clutch potential. Being able to clutch a point in a 1v4 or 2v4 is basically impossible unless your other teammate is a Mercy. True, that didn't happen all that often, but it was POSSIBLE. The projectile size changes are currently like staples barely holding the hero together. If his is one of the projectiles getting reduced in size, the hero is potentially dead. What I liked about playing him before, while difficult, you could hard carry a game if you were good enough.

My opinion is: POTATO AND BACON BAKE RECEPIE Potatoes: Any kind of potato will work in this recipe. For best performance I prefer a roasting or mashing variety. Cheese: Use your favorite cheese including Colby, Tasty or Edam. Bacon: I often go for streaky bacon in this recipe. But any other type including middle bacon or bacon bits would work well. Preheat the oven to 190°C fan bake. Fry the bacon over a gentle heat until crispy and brown. Set aside. Thinly slice the potatoes with a sharp knife or mandolin. Mix the cream, milk and garlic together with lots of salt and pepper. Place a third of the potatoes in the base of a large ovenproof dish. Sprinkle a third of the cheese and bacon over the potatoes, then pour over a third of the creamy mix. Repeat until you have three layers. Bake for 70-80 minutes until the potatoes are cooked and the top is golden. RECIPE FAQS: Could this dish be made ahead of time? Yes! You could either make the whole dish, then cover it in tin foil and reheat in the oven later. Or you could assemble the dish earlier in the day and refrigerate it before cooking it later. Is this dish gluten free? Is sure is! The sauce is thickened by cream instead of flour.

Hanzo is the only reason I ever picked up overwatch back in 2016 and he’s the reason I still play to this day. Few characters can truly dominate as much as a good Hanzo, along with some luck. The amazing thing about Hanzo was there was always a shot. Last team fight your whole team is dead but you just got a headshot and now it’s a 1 v 2 for the win. You get another and stall out for some help or you just get both the dudes with some crazy clip. They didn’t take too much and gave a lot back but the feeling of the gameplay is something that cannot be returned. Overall not too upset could be good for the game. Love you Hanzo.

Hanzo was the character that rewarded skill and patience when hitting your shots. The new character feels more like junkrat than the Hanzo i've spent years playing.

I used to feel kinda proud of myself for being able to hit shots with Hanzo. But now I feel like it's a dirty move to pick Hanzo.

Widow shoots hanzo arrows, genji shurikens are the size of small children, soldier can hold left click in the general direction of "red" and hit 2/3rds of his clip. This update was the "too much of our playerbase SUCKS at aiming" update.

Definitely feel like the new Hanzo changes impact your play style which in turn changes the style or flow of your videos. Doesn’t mean change is bad, excited to see what you come up with next!

Hanzo is supposed to be a skill based character, rewarding patience and positioning, now it's just spam based.

Seeing sensei Arrge not doing his usual thing hurts. Stay strong and let us medidate for better times my fellow Hanzo brothers!

They removed one shot from a travel time time projectile hero, with whom you had to to aim, AND predict, AND account for bullet drop and travel time, instead of from the hitscan point and click character widowmaker. Previously, if you relied on luck and spam, you were always more of a hindrance to your team because you could do better with any other hero. Now, that’s supposed to be your main play style. The devs were bullied into this change by horrible players who were punished by hanzo for their godawful movement and positioning.

Even when you're forced to adopt a more dynamic and upfront approach with hanzo, man your skill shines through no matter what. Even though you're in the frontlines more rather than assassinating unaware targets you're still having so much impact it's really nice to see.

As a widow main, what they did to Hanzo is criminal. Hell, what they did to widow is criminal, just in a different way.

I haven't watch too many of your recent videos but I enjoy the commentary notes you give over the gameplay <3
