@@realchiknuggets ain’t no dang way he’s not in his 30s 32/33 ish per his own self…still a touch younger than me…but I’ll claim him lol

This is the main reason I consider her to be viable in Brawl comps. Her kit is great for taking advantage of having tank and dps right in front of her taking the heat while she alternates snipes and heals.

Yea preemptively moving it is so important

Yeah turret management to get the most out of it while avoiding having it get destroyed is a whole mini game within the team fight. Now that people are already much better about spotting it and destroying it, I find that a lot of times my best results are with NOT using it right away, healing with right click until the fight is progressed enough that the enemy has gotten tunnel vision on the target they are fighting, THEN putting it out while they are distracted. Even then, I'll often let it tick a few times and then recall it seconds later if the healing feels under control. So ironically the turret is good, but you can't just leave it out and rely on it like people think you can. People complain about it "lasting forever" and I kind of laugh to myself because the better I get, the more I use it situationally and recall it as soon as I can. People think it's doing all this healing during a team fight, but in reality right when you'd want it most is exactly when I'm most likely recalling it to prevent it getting destroyed right away.

😂😂

I feel that cancer is like a simple cold in the overwatch universe.

​@@GartBIllari Quinn 😂

She got the last laugh

Or down to the other teams bad aim and failing to close a kill or down to them just peppering the tank constantly because they can only shoot the big one I think she needs a slight nerf. She gets her ult way too fast. Btw. I love her. She’s so good. I don’t want to play if I can’t be Illari at the moment 😂 I am getting total mayhem numbers of healing out with this girl

I can relate with this comment so much. I thought LW was going to feel familiar as a Sym main, but it is Illari that feels like coming home.

​@@BiscuitMan14I honestly think Illari and Lifeweaver were supposed to be Sym as a support but it split 😅

She is. People are like “her ult is too powerful”. Yeah until you dip to cover or shoot her out of the sky when she goes to do it or shoot her straight after she shoots it or you block it with a rein shield or Orisa spin or DVA matrix or cleanse its effects on wraith away or zarya bubble it before or after or sigma shield it or Winston bubble it or (you get the idea). I even had a life weaver pop a tree of life in front of it and stop it once. It’s so easily disrupted and you’re proper out in the open when you use it. ONLY change she needs is she builds ult too fast. That’s it

She's not balanced, She's a *very* fun character don't get me wrong. But she is already way stronger than other healers

She is incredibly strong cuz she does everything and excels at it shes gona get a change in the timming of her weapon charge i bet

@@umbralowl so Illari is very punishing to players who don’t deal with her for sure hit she’s not that hard to deal with. Her damage output is great but it’s slow so once she makes her big 112 headshot if you just pressure her and she goes. Her ult can get eaten by almost every tank and yesterday I hit her ult on 3 people, I headshot one of them and mercy had her beam on them and the explosion just didn’t kill then so I just got stopped dead there. What Illari does is she forces people to actually work together or she just takes over. She’s actually completely broken against uncoordinated teams. Half the games I take her into it’s “tank diff” when my tank has a turret behind them and me beaming them round a corner, tracking enemy abilities and resources and engaging when supports burn theirs and their teams just running like idiots and shooting my tank/hard feeding me ult charge off the healing output She needs an ult charge nerf though. I’m getting one every other team fight

@@reifenrir It's not her weapon that's the problem. Go up against a one-shot Hanzo that's across the map or a Widow. She needs at least two headshots to take out a squishy and they can wipe her out in a headshot. If I were the devs the only thing I'd change about her is the Ult charge time. Her Ult can end a team fight and comes up way too many times in a game. That said, there's a lot of counters to her Ult too that the community hasn't adjusted to yet. I got my Ult eaten by a D Va the other day. I think Suzu wipes it out and Zarya's bubble. Plus you still have to kill the enemy for it to do much. DPS mains don't like it when they're not guaranteed a kill in a 1v1 with a support and that doesn't make the game fun for supports.

I think the ult charge rate will naturally slow as people get better about destroying her turret, but if the charge rate got nerfed it would likely still be fine. It IS a powerful ult, but there are plenty of counters to it too, and once people get better at using them the ult will feel more like every other ult where you rarely expect a team kill and instead are happy enough just taking out one key person.

her ult is useless

That or sunstruck shouldn't last as long. I feel like I will run from Illari and have to play hide & seek until it's gone.

I wouldn't be surprised based on player complaints, but honestly I don't think they are needed. Now that people are punishing the pylon more consistently her healing is down to the same kind of level as every other support, which has also slowed her ult charge rate. Her ult is 100% fine as is, because while it has the potential to be strong, there actually are several really good ways to survive it, or negate it outright (not to mention people are just naturally better at seeking cover when they hear the ult line and better about scattering and not chaining explosions.) I 100% think that by the time the mid season is upon us, players will have adapted well enough to her to leave her as is. Give her a token nerf to ult charge rate, or a token nerf to the right click recharge if she fully drains it. I'd be fine with it being more punishing if it means leaving it's power untouched. Turret and ult should be left 100% as is, as they are balanced as it is.

​@@jackobatgamingShe just needs some marginal adjustments, like -5dmg on primary fire and maybe -5hps on the pylon.

​@@jackobatgamingplease feel free to send me some of that crack your smoking. Illari is busted af. Try and play tracer rn. Playing that character gives me homicidal urges

Olaf MVP

​@@xEmjeyMVC

He been starved of OW content fr fr

That’ll change as the pylon is more meta and consistently seen, lower ranks already struggle with Sym turrets and Torb, but as they get used to the new character I assume the pylon will have less healing done as it gets prioritized for destruction

Moira can put out similar numbers. When a match goes on for a while or when team fights last a while, stats get pretty high

My friend who is a pretty good Kiriko and Ana. Turned into a madman with Illari. He was out DPSing our team while competing with other healers for top heals in multiple matches. She is definitely not balanced.

​@@Shzl47 Exactly. That's actually such a perfect analogy because low rank players are convinced Moira is broken too

@@NotPakoagain Moira has literally the same potential with an easier skill floor. Illari is dependent upon you being able to aim

He clearly doesn't care about correct pronunciation. He still says "Kah-Ree-Ko" and doesn't sound like he's correcting that any time soon.

It’s not pronounced that way either. Watch the Blizzard origin story.

@@DNYLNY I did. She pronounced it like it would be in Spanish. Not with an L but with a Y.

You forgot the best turret in the game.. weaver xD

I've found a lot of success being almost eager to move it the moment I think the integrity of its placement is at risk, even if it's healing

I find that I rarely use it right away in a fight if I can avoid it. I'll focus on right click heals, and once the fight is more under way and the enemy is hopefully tunnel visioned into whoever they are shooting at, then I'll deploy it while they are distracted. Also, everyone expects Illari to place the turret behind her and her team to make it difficult to engage into, even though there are flank routes that make getting behind you pretty easy. Instead, if the two teams are fighting close together, try to sneakily deploy it over the enemy team's head, because they rarely if ever look over their own head and even more rarely do they look behind themselves and up lol. And even if they DO know it's there they will NOT want to take their eyes off you team to look up or behind as that would mean leaving themselves kind of wide open.

@@jackobatgaming yeah see. These seem like useful points. Hmm

I think the early change they could make is to nerf her ult charge.

There is no place she can place it that you can't find an angle on it and snipe it. Every map has flank routes, and there are a wide variety of heroes to chose from with various movement skills to get into key positions. Complaining you can't reach the pylon is like complaining you can't kill the supports themselves. Yeah they are trying to stay safe, it's your job to figure it out. You have ALL the tools you need to destroy it.

@@jackobatgaming okay lil bro

It wasn’t that hard for me cause on the flashpoint obj. Where the stairs lead down into it is where I got mine the pixel skin took the longest tbh I just got it today

Got both sprays in 2 matches. Meanwhile I still dont have Baps window challenge even tho I mained him for months xD

-Own pirate cat

Most reapers use ult like they are shouting in adv: "YOO IM COMIN IN FOR BLOSSOOOOMMM" xD

The voice Autor of her spells it something like "ILYARI"

Adults only please.

@@fashnek i just tried to help. Im pretty safe to say that im older than u but ok feel Bad for getting help. Kids nowadays.

Playing allot I believe. He always had cracked aim I think

there was an aim trainer on screen for a second there but it looked like another language and i didnt see what specific aim trainer it was. looked cool though. like i want to know the map code@@Siks7Ate9

Yep I absolutely hate her ultimate, it shouldn’t be on her it should be on a new dps hero, support ults are fun because they provide big game changing utility, her ult is boring for a support

Their aim should be inconsistent af too, esp with Illari. Try Cas he eats her alive in 1v

This isn't much different than what Moira can do in 1v1s against squishies in metal ranks, though, and it's arguably going to be easier to do that with Moira instead of Illari if you're relatively unskilled.

I mean as winston it takes me 3 seconds just to destroy her pylon that's on the ceiling. I cant kill anything through her healing before I die.

@@Siks7Ate9 that’s the case with Mercy too.. her flying around while healing a hero you got like 1000 damage on.. just have to game plan for it like all things

@Marinate433 I can kill people through a mercy pocket by forcing the mercy away or chasing her. I can't force a turret away. I can also kill the mercy, and that's more value anyway if I invested like 4 seconds instead of 3. The turret is back 13 seconds later and I'll again have to spend my 8 second shield cooldown +3 seconds of shooting a turret. And that's with just killing 2 turrets. Meanwhile illari can headshot me and still heal about twice as much that I can do damage for.

@@Siks7Ate9 develop a new strategy that’s the point.. they will adjust but if you can chase a mercy, you can destroy a fixed turret

@Marinate433 no I can't, because putting pressure on a mercy may secure the elim or else make her unable to pocket someone else who then dies. Putting pressure on the mercy is value able because she isnt healing someone or damage boosting during that period. That makes that person isolated. The turret takes me literally 3 seconds to kill to even be able to kill anything through the available healing. We are talking about a stationary turret that takes me literally 3 seconds to kill and because its most likely in the middle of their team I'm doing nothing that's essentially useful except be able to charge my ult if I ignore the turret and go for damage. However the illari's will also charge her ult faster and her ult is just straight up better. Also if I don't kill the turret, it provides enough healing that the supports can essentially wait for a good bit to heal someone. During that time they can also dps me. Ill take inceased damage for a bit of ult charge that's essentially not useful because their ults are just better and charge faster I think as well.

Yeah calling her relatively balanced is just a furphy lol

You gotta be wilfully ignorant to call her balanced @@paulvenn4447

If you haven't already figured out how to kill her turret that's on you. If you haven't figured out how to deny her ult value, that is also on you. You have all the tools needed to deal with her exactly as is.

You're really funny@@jackobatgaming

@@umbralowl Tell ya what, explain to me what you are having trouble with against her and I'll tell you how to deal with it.

She's a character that is less meant for support mains and more for DPS mains who want to play support every once in a while.

Skill issue

@@whatisthis9951 boring issue

​@@redram6080I can agree with this very much so. I'm a diamond 4 DPS main, I struggle a lot as support as a Gold 4 currently trying to improve. I love Ana and Kiriko the most, yet this new character catches my interest and attention from the time I pick her to the time the match is over.

Neither do I. Nor do I care

He's gotten rank 1 support multiple times and has been streaming this game as a support player for years. He also has a cat that's very cute.

Dude is a Top 500 support 💀

Lol I know this is bait but you know the only reason he wasn’t an Overwatch League player was because he used to boost people by playing on their account in the very early days of the game.

​@KJ_6991 He also doesn't want to. He can play in any contenders team if he likes. He doesn't want to because of the time investment vs the rewards.

He's indeed not just good, he's actually great.

Why?
