I will start off by saying that this post will have a wonky structure, it's mostly just stuff I can think about at the moment.

As somebody who likes to sometimes just play widow for the fun of it, I was coming into the whole rework being cautiously optimistic, for more added context, I am a controller player who just plays the game casually, and Widow is not actually my main (that would be Psylocke) and I would say that I am not the best Widow.

That being said, the rework really didn't land for me, it really felt like a departure from both her comics and what she was originally set up as, sure there are some things I do like, such as infi sprint however she just feels to different otherwise, and I am very much with the side saying that maybe she should have different firing modes, that of which would very much help with what I think is/was problem, the fire rate.

In a game where healing is abundant, a slow firing sniper just isn't enough, you really need other factors for it to matter in the long run, which sucks because you'd think the assassin character would be able to assassinate her target's without a problem.

This is why I kinda lean more towards using her team ups mostly, they might be weaker but they have the damage output to at least feel like I'm not breaking even.

I would have much rathered a fire rate buff or some sort of anti heal, maybe have her shoot a tracer from her Widow's Bite that applies it so it's much harder for her targets to recover after the first shot, it would have worked ai well, though I do also personally think she should have a grapple like MK but that might be too much.

So overall, while I do like some elements of the rework, I think overall it's not great by any stretch of the imagination, they should have kept the ADS, and Ult how they were.

Also Widow is hotter then Luna and basically almost the entire Rivals cast aside from like three characters, yeah it's an objective take but I don't care, I'm sick and tied of Luna being held on some cute characters pedestal, not to mention I FUCKING ADORE WIDOW'S HAIRSTYLE.
