Why is burning Reaper still a thing?

I know stadium is basically dead now, but you still claim to be doing balancing for it, and yet, Reaper still has his burn fade. How wasn't this nuked from orbit by now? Can't stop him from flying around, can't cleanse the burn, cause he's just gonna reapply it and he can soak up shots during it too. Who greenlit this power for him?

So, are Roadhog and Junkrat on JQs team?

Last I checked they wanted to blow her up for getting kicked out? We cool with that now cause she needed the man power after clearly agreeing to work with Vendetta?

I was thinking if Hog and Junk are gonna be on a team bust Hammond out, but I remembered they're not supposed to working with Queen. Guess that either got resolved off-screen or we're having another Kiriko age lore loophole.

This needs a healthbar

People been going crazy over Reaper's burning vape, but Mei can just roll around, completely immune to damage while healing herself, knocking everyone off the point and also having a mini-blizzard? For ten years I've been asking why regular cryo-freeze doesn't have a healthbar, but this is next level. I've seen posts "what's the counterplay to Reaper burning everywhere?", same applies to this.

Fine, we don't need to touch default cryo, but when it comes to this it needs to be some 50-60% max HP (let's be generous). Yes, I see her rollin' and I'm hatin'.

This is a trap

Killing the clone may not show up on the killfeed, but it counts as a regular kill. I don't need to have any kind of Overwatch Mythbusters to see whenever I kill a Kiri clone my kill count goes up. Whenever a Kiriko picks this, the opposing team's kills higher than usual. As we know, in stadium, more kills means more cash and more cash means more stats.

This isn't a power, it's debuff.

I hate this

Hate reaching 13/15 or 14/15 because now if I win, the extra progress is gone. I know this is likely in standard comp too, but I play stadium. If I get to this point it's almost like the game is telling me I don't have to try now because a win is just as important as a loss. I don't play for ranks, I play for golden guns and the system right now dicourages me from trying (I still do).

I've mentioned this on the forums too. All I want is for the progress to carry over - if I'm at 13/15 I'm gonna be at 1/15 and if I'm at 14/15 I'm gonna be at 2/15. Instead it's always gonna 0/15. Such a simple QoL change.

How many buffs to the ult can one item do?

Imagine if Hazard had an item that gives 15% starting ult charge, 50% bigger area and slows enemies in the ult are before they're rooted. Yeah, doesn't sound so fun. And again, this is an item, not a power, he also has a power that boosts his ult. Ram's ult has always been crazy with just being a huge AoE of constant damage, but then you give him these wild buffs in stadium.

Letting Torb stick turrets to wall was a mistake

It's a ha-ha funny perk in regular game, but in stadium he can have an army of level 2-3 turrets that hide on the ceiling. It used to be an annoying little thing where you had to shoot these little things, but you have to keep looking around all over the map.

My favorite thing about comp stadium

Randomly "losing connection to game server", desperately loging back in rejoining, get kicked again, rejoin again, get kicked and get suspened for potato servers. This server thing has been going for like two seasons now. And no, I know it's not just me, cause people been randomly leaving and coming back to games too and it even happened to my friend in QP. What is all this Kiriko skins money going towards if not maintaining stable servers?

Not like the game is lagging before it happens or anything, like it sometimes did happen back in the day, just get the little red icon on the side of the screen and all you can do is pray it goes away. Ten years and the game still can't recognize when you click to ragequit and when steam-powered servers kick you out.

Yes, I'm mad and just wanted to vent.

Meis, please pick this

D.va's burning, Rein's brurning, Junkrat's burning, Ashe's burning like crazy and you make all of that go away. Meis be building for either primary fire or walls/rolling ball with blizzard, so you'd be cleansing burns all the time. It's just 4k, it won't ruin your build or anything. Since clearly no one knows it exists, I'm willing to bet enemy Ashe won't pick the "cleansed burns give ult charge", cause she won't expect it.

But no, enemy has D.Va running into us, burning us all the time and I explain to Mei what it does and she still won't pick it.

So, how long until Wuyang finally gets "be water, my friend" voiceline?

Of all the water puns and references you could ever make, the fact he didn't release with this is beyond disappointing.

Just the DBZ collab ideas I've been having

While any kind of Dragon Ball Z collab is probably still far away, I wanted to mention this cause it finally hit me who would likely get the Goku skin.

Wuyang Goku - It's not someone I'd want to get the skin, but it actually fits quite well. He's got the staff, which becomes Goku's power pole. He rieds on a wave of water, so just color that yellowy-orange and you get the nimbus and the he throws water around like it's ki blasts. True, just about the only time adult Goku was ever seen using the power pole and flying on the nimbus was in one, maybe two of the non-canon movies, but still.

Emre Vegeta - Mostly cause his ult would kinda make him look like he's doing Galick Gun. He's got some armor on him, so would fit for Saiya Saga Vegeta, but that design is not the maretable one, so it'd be Cell Saga look. Still works, I'd say

Mauga Nappa - Would go great with Emre, but Nappa is not that marketable. He's got some meme potential thanks to DBZ Abridged, but that's about, so this would likely not happen.

Genji Trunks - I mean, this one is beyond obvious

D.Va Bulma - I talked with my friend about this kind of collab and said they'd probably give Kiriko a Bulma skin and she said it should be D.Va and she'd be in a Capsule Corp mech and that was so good. Before that I'd probably not even want Bulma being a skin, but now I just can't see her as anyone else.

Ramattra Piccolo - I've already made a post with this one before, but it just fits so well. He's already got the look down, just change his staff to the one Kami used. His Nemesis form could be Orange Piccolo, but that would jarring gameplay-wise if a character sudenly changed colors like that.

Lifeweaver (?) Frieza - Honestly, I don't know on this one. I was gonna say Ram, cause Nemesis form would look like Frieza's 100% power, but Piccolo is fits Ram way more. I was gonna say Echo, but feel like Cell goes better. They'd totally want to use Frieza for this collab, cause he's easily the most marketable villain of all of DB.

Echo Cell - It's the wings that really sell me on this idea.

Roadhog Buu - I mean, do I need to explain this one?
