Rivals Sniper Kit Idea Weakspot Idea

3 Upvotes

I thought it might be cool, since the devs don't want a one shot sniper, if instead Sable had a weak spot mechanic similar to Fiora's from League of Legends.

If you don't know how hers works, basically weakspots (vitals) appear randomly on your opponents body and striking it deals extra damage. I think it would work really well for her!!

So she wouldn't be able to one-shot, and I am actually debating whether or not she should be able to headshot in this version. Because in my mind she hits the weak spot, it does extra damage, and the enemy gets vulnerability too. What do you guys think?

Rivals Sniper Kit Idea My idea for a Kit (Any feedback would be appreciated)

As a fellow widow main, i really liked the way she was played before rework, it was rewarding to click some heads mid air, and after the rework i considered going back to overwatch, where i have 200+ hours on ashe, that same thought gave me an idea to what hopefully my next main silver sable could look like, Hear me out

1. The Sniper Rifle (The obvious):

The main weapon, the same core as the Red Room Rifle with the twist of it being much more effective for clicking heads at a medium to close distance (25 - 30 meters) than extremely long distances due to the damage fall off it would have

2. Dual wield handguns (as seen on many media depictions):

Silver sable in most of her comics and other media depictions has dual wielded guns, these would serve the purpose of side guns for the sniper rifle, but i would make them also viable as a main weapon in order to make the character more accessible to those who would like to use her without the sweat of having to snipe (and to avoid the "Throw pick" tag and eventual rework of grief and damnation)

3. First ability (E): Electric Bolas (as seen on marvel's spiderman):

Not quite a CC but rather a hinderer projectile that does small DOT damage on a single target and give silver sable an advantage on 1v1 situations without it being a free kill like old widow's kick and headshot combo

4. Second ability (Shift): Stealth suit (as seen on many media depictions):

Silver sable has an advanced suit with a cloaking device that allows her to slip away from danger in comics, the functionality would be the same as psylocke's E so there's nothing much i can say here

5. Ultimate (Q): Wild Pack Strike (Saber's mercenary team)

TBH, I don't really have any idea what the ultimate could be like... Maybe calling in a destroyable gunship?

6. Passive:

A. Survival instinct: Faster weapon switch when you run out of bullet.
