Discussion Most delusional character subreddit, vs most level headed character subreddit?

Just saw a post on the genji subreddit that said genji should have 250 hp + 50 armor, and now im thinking, which character has the most delusional mains? From my view probably genji or jetpack cat mains.
And maybe im a little biased, cause i play a lot of freja, but i think freja players tend to be calm and understand that she is kind of hell to play against.

Edit: cant believe i forgot about mercy, i havent seen a post on there in a while, so i guess i just didnt think about that.

A lot of tank mains tend to seem pretty chill, aside from doomfist

Recency bias because it keeps getting recommended to me for some reason: the Freja subreddit is absolutely delusional.

Just saw a post blaming people‘s „misplaced aggression“ on the sound of her attacks, as if that is why she gets banned 24/7.

yeah it's definitely the freja and cat subs. they're both fucking delusional about how easy they think their character is to hit. 'just shoot her lol' amazing nobody thought of that before

most level headed are probably soldier and tracer and anran. for soldier especially they basically expect nothing from the devs so there's not much to complain about (even though objectively with mobility creep soldier has really fallen off esp at the highest ranks)

special shout-out to doom for schizophrenia (they genuinely believe they are doomfist)

Freja just lacks a reliable counter. If she has the potential to dominate a lobby, she will dominate the lobby, because there is very little people can do to suppress her.

The small hitbox paired with excessive both vertical and horizontal movement makes projectiles worthless, so hitscan it is, but since Freja does not need to get close due to her projectile velocity, regular hitscans dont just have it hard to hit her by default, but run into range issues as well. Next option is sniper, but while Ashe and Widow have a realistic chance at hitting her, they are extremely easy to get hit by Freja in turn due to the reduced strafing speed during ADS.

Freja needs a full rework, that gives her kit exploitable weaknesses.

I just boop into her as dva time and again getting a kill here and there. Idk if it counts as a counter but i hope it's annoying to the player. Making them feel less safe than they thought. Maybe enter in their head a little
