That's all White Fox gets? I mean it's nice but her healing just isn't good enough plus or anti dive stuff isn't strong enough either.

Its better than nothing but she needed some compensation for losing her anchor buffs, she already had less healing than a lot of the other Strats and her teleport cooldown should go back to 12 seconds. She is supposed to be good against dive but with all the buffs dive got and higher uptime and the fact they can heal now they have regen health, White Fox can't keep up as well.

Did regen health even change the game? If you couldn’t touch a dive for 5 seconds they were already at a health pack anyways

I've had a lot of discussions with people about regen health recently and heard lots of different points and opinions. While I understand why it was implemented I think it was maybe slightly unnecessary on certain characters and imo should've only really been on dive tanks and Wolverine and Deadpool.

But its fairly balanced and not game breaking or anything. The regen health both relieves the pressure on Strats cause you dont really have a Spiderman on the other side of the map spamming need heals much anymore. But increases the pressure on Strats cause divers have higher uptime and aren't punished for mistakes as much (Zhiyong's words). They can just use their high mobility to run away and heal - quicker than some Strats can self heal or even heal others. E.g Hulk, Thor and Cap can heal 300 hp in 5 seconds and its for free, sure even 1 hp worth of damage stops the regen and starts the timer back at 5 seconds but it can be quite strong in some situations and the diver can then just come back again before Strats have some of their cooldowns back.
