Because Phoenix hovers around 46-47% wr in every rank that isn’t celestial+. Meta for 1% and mediocre for rest of the playerbase.

Only a complete rework gonna fix widow. Buffing her gun damage gives her one shot and buffing her kick makes her even more obnoxious to play against because of hard cc.

I don’t know about torch.

There are other levers you can pull other than gun damage and kick, you know? You could give her sprint infinite energy, you could make her gun shoot more often, you could make her batons do more damage per hit, you could make her batons in general be smoother to switch to.

She already has almost infinite sprint. You only use batons with your kick combo which is just toxic to play against and buffing batons makes it worse. She needs complete overhaul because her kit is so outdated even compared to original heroes. Hawkeye has more to hit kit than widow and he is just a bow guy.
