Oh my, Mccree forcing people to play as a team, what a shame...

Mccree isn't as OP as people say he is!

  1. The combo requires HALF of his abilities, meaning after his "broken" combo is used, he is vulnerable to just about any hero in the game

  2. The flashbang itself has one of the shortest ranges of any ability in the game, the only one I can think of that is shorter is Lucio's push back. So if you're moving alone through short corridors and small rooms, you shouldn't expect anything less if you know there's a Mccree on the enemy team.

  3. He has no mobility!!! He has a roll that has a the length of a yard! If he's roaming alone looking to combo people, move as a team and catch him out of position, because he's not living through that.

The way to counter McCree is by playing as a team and sticking together, he essentially just punishes people for not playing as a team, and the majority of those people are still adjusting from their call of duty based gameplay to coordinated, objective based gameplay.

Calling him OP is just as bad as saying Bastion is OP for the same reason. Just because you have to adjust how you play the game slightly to counter a hero, doesn't make that hero any stronger than the others. You should want to play as a team against Mccree, and put the enemy team at a disadvantage.

I understand this will become better once people have fully adjusted to the game.
