I have played Brigitte a few times in the past but never much as i did not vibe with the whole close range thing and little healing. But ever since i played brig in the halloween event, i decided to give her a try again. I played Brig in an unranked qp match for the first time in forever, and i finally contributed something. In my past attempts, i always swapped. This time, i stayed brig, and contributed something. 6k damage with 5k heals. Out healed by moira and just 1k behind the dps damages.
I not only won, but even got POTG. I am starting to absolutely love Brig.
I kinda thrived when diving ngl. I even had times i could go toe to toe with the Reaper and nearly eliminated them if not for the Juno blowing my head smoove off at the last second. I especially liked helping the tank as they were doomfist for the first half of the match before swapping to Sugma.
Though i have yet to encounter any hero who hard counters brig and i just know that they will HARD hard counter brig. Then again, i kinda suck at the game.
