TL;DR, give D.Mon an alt eject that blasts her into the air with a speed boost (without an instant remech)

I’m not the first person to bring this up and definitely won’t be the last, but D.Mon’s baby stage needs some love. The hero is in a good spot overall (if not overtuned), but her demech feels so tacked on and leaves a lot on the table that could play into hero fantasy.

Right now, D.Mon’s dollar store DVa demech limply launches her right into enemy fire and stranded with a terrible weapon. While you could go and make baby D.Mon a demon with armor and/or damage (which would fit her flavor as the “tough” mecha pilot), I’d love to see her given a unique survival/reposition option like DVa's via an alternate ult.

As a life-long mecha game fan, I can confidently say that Titanfall 2 nailed the FPS mech fantasy like no other before or since. My favorite aspect of piloting a titan was, counterintuitively, how you got out of it — or rather, the option of doing so by launching yourself into space with a nuclear ejection when “doomed.” DVa already has the “nuclear” part of this ability, so it’s only fair for D.Mon to get the “ejection.”

In my mind, D.Mon’s alt ult would lengthen the de-mech animation by a second or so before releasing a small green AoE and blasting D.Mon into the skybox. While airborne, she would have increased mobility to directionally input her way out of harms way.

This would also get around the constant issue of demeching in the enemy team’s face and instantly being sent to heaven. To offset this buff, I think it’s fair for her ejection to NOT allow for an instant remech like D.Va's. I’m also imagining that the extra second of animation can help the enemy team get ready to intercept her, which would reward the D.Mon player for outsmarting/anticipating their reaction. The airtime does also make you an easier target, so I think it’s a pretty fair trade off.

I honestly think this idea would be balanced for those reasons, but I’d love to get y’all’s thoughts on if this idea is reasonable and/or how else her demech can be spiced up. 

15 minutes of sacrifice cycling has never been so worth it. Now I get why deathless black goat is so insane. I had been using it to cheat out 3 blood units (yesterday had a 9/16 moose) but little did I know that my best self-eating friend was so much more broken. I'm sure this combo is far from new to the community but just wanted to share as someone who went in blind and discovered it for myself today

This is after two turns of this revenant being on board -- as as you can see in the shop, nothing is buffed. Easy top 6, thank you Blizzard

I thought maps couldn’t get more claustrophobic than Aatlis, but the devs have proven me wrong. Neon Junction is simultaneously super cramped in side lanes and overly simplified in main with resoundingly little useful verticality or escape paths. I also can’t find, let alone path to, the megas but maybe that’s just me. Altogether though this feels like an impossible map for ball, at least on defense (attack is braindead for any hero since the whole map is a flat uninterrupted line half as long as any other hybrid map). How are yall feeling about it?

Just lost a free 1st by tripling evoker from a bounty after the turn timer ended...
