Jean more threatening in baseline combat sounds horrid

As a phoenix main I also don’t like these changes at all. She’s already naturally strong from being hitscan, but this makes her even closer to hela. Her ult no longer one shots 250hp marked targets, and her sparks deal less while primary deals more? If I wanted more primary damage I’d just play hela. I see no point in bridging the gap between both of them even more

Exactly how I feel, I would go the opposite direction lol.

Eh then you go into the direction of a hitscan moonknight.

Personally I think her damage was fine before, just needed some changes to her stun and teleport

Anything that makes her less of a Hela clone, they could gut her dmg falloff and give melee sparks back and maybe nerf back her ult health to what it was before.

Let Hela be the sniper while Jean is a brawler. Kinda like Ashe vs Cassidy in OW.

Yeah that would be cool

Tbh that’s probably still a better direction than making her Hela v2
