- A broken character doesn’t just ruin your game, they can fundamentally change the way the game is played and spoil it for everyone. Sometimes developers save us from the mistakes they've made, but sometimes, well, let’s just say the top few entries of this list are still haunting us to this day.
Here are the Top 10 Most broken characters in esports history.

Not gonna lie, the overwatch segment made me laugh when I saw an entire team in a pro league match in front of a crowd no less, all turn around and head back to base like, "Nooooooope!"
it had that same energy as fighting game players who put their controllers down to check their twitter while your opponent finishes his unblockable infinite combo on you for 12min
@@generalians i was there live to see that, people call out seattle for poor sportmanship. but seattle just doesnt play that bullshit lmfao
@@CasuallyRekt Got to agree with you. Running into a definite loss at such high stakes is silly compared to regrouping and strategizing, so do not see anything unsportsmanlike about them backing off from a stomping.
we arent talking about the same thing, we i was referancing a melee player who had the entire venue boo him. one player stopped playing him mid game and tweeted, the following round walk'd off stage
@@CasuallyRekt your talking about the ice climbers wobble where you could do nothing once you were caught right
The crazy thing about Brigitte is that she was so broken in competitive play, literal gold players would climb to Top 500 in one season by only playing her.
*cough* Aspen *cough*
@@MysticMungusSlungus do you think Aspen wouldn't have made rank 1 without brig? Lmao
@@purplewine7362 she technically did do it without Brig, but i assume some boosting was done there. She plays like a Masters-level support, she’s not bad, but definitely far from a top tier support.
@@MysticMungusSlungus she literally hit and kept rank one without brig wtf are you on? I want sun
@@ghstag0nyy832 ok Mercy avi
Bridgette was so broken, she single-handedly led the downfall of Overwatch.
Sadly she was one of many reasons the led to the downfall of ow
Overwatch should have implemented banning. instead of role lock
It still saddens me when I think of Overwatch. It was so good when it came out. So much fun, then it just got worse and worse. More and more frustrating instead of enjoyable. They botched the eSports as well. Now I have pretty much zero expectations for OW2, but it's completely different from OW1 so we'll see I guess.
Just like bayonetta in smash
@@mllcg Role lock is optional now, and everyone still plays it exclusively. It's better, always has been.
I ran into a guy in Overwatch, it was a Plat game but one player had a Top 500 sticker. I asked him how he got it and he replied "ah, when I played Brigette back in the good old days of GOATS."
It's weird playing in gold/plat and seeing omeone with a top 500 player icon
So I have this one friend he was a Brig player during GOATS and when she came out in about a month he went from almost being bronze to being 4300 by only playing brig. Braindead hero amirite.
This was horrible on console. I was t500 on xbx and literally no joke, during goats I saw dozens of gms/t500s who were diamond and usually even lower became a brig 1trick playing at these ranks...
@@grim7048 was it xbx player? I remember that guy
yep, there were lots of Brig 1 tricks that were plat-diamond that made it there by abusing her, sad really
even if you go back and play the game today you can still find a few people with top 500 avis either tho they’re in low plat LOL
Could've made a top 11 with the Tachanka Rework
Bikini pls make tachanka rework video
more like Top 11 broken characters with Warden
Nicholas Bruno as if he wouldnt you kidding
Warden's talent is nobody plays seriously against you If u take Him . Underrated
that would of been 1 one
As soon as I saw Brig on the thumbnail I knew this would be very accurate
I said the same thing about the lion. Spot on video
Same
The one time they add anything about ow...
brig literally killed the game.
List starting, no clue what's on here. I expect meta knight.
Brig obv tho.
Didn’t even mention the most broken part about brig, her shield bash WENT THROUGH SHIELDS so you could walk straight up and stun rein with no fear every single fight and there was really nothing he could do
Swing hammer? Shield bash stopped it
Charge? Shield bash stopped that too
Focus down brig while she approaches? Not even an option
In a rein dominated world, Brigitte was feared by all
DUDE I FEEL LIKE NO ONE WVER BRINGS THIS UP. Everyone is always like “dude remember when brig had insane self heal and a 600hp shield” and I sit there and go “that shit wasn’t even bad compared to her fucking shield bash”
Remember it’s 4 second(or so) cooldown too? So on top of all that bs, she could do it every 4 seconds and get a free 50 damage from it, which ALSO is a guaranteed whip shot if(and let’s be honest, it always would hit) shield bash landed.
And could death combo a tracer.
bro i was a silver tier dogshit support and shot up 500 elo by walking in front of the enemy reins and just bashinh or straight up blocking their shatter because i was a plat tank player didnt even have to worry bout healing i just left clicked and e'd rein and gave him more armor XD
just play bastion
Brig didn’t just destroy league play, I think she helped put overwatch in the grave.
True but hopefully once ow2 comes out it will be revived
@@Luke-py8wi haha this comment did not age well
@@spygun0442 how?
@@Razytone blizzard controversy where they were exposed for like, abusing most the women in the work place along with overall being a very toxic place to be. They had to have a mass lay off cause of it and they are still on trial I believe.

Those are still all allegations at this point. We already know that some of the rumors turned out to be complete BS, like how “The Cosby Suite” was spun as some sort of r*pe festival where they all worshipped Bill Cosby as some sort of s*xual abusing role model.
R6S back then: here's an OP operator for you to enjoy before we balance him
R6S now: please play Warden and Kali, I beg you
I actually like playing kali lol
I'm a kali main in diamond so she clearly is
robopegy 06 she clearly is what
Dante butcher
played. She is played and actually very useful in High Elo if there isn‘t a Thatcher. And a Kali with good aim and very good reactions can be your worst nightmare.
I mean, the past few seasons have had very good ops. Not lion level, but ace is still an s tier operator.
Lets not forget that when Monkey king first came out, apart from his insane damage, mobility and his ult procing items like skull basher, It also lagged the game extremely hard for most players when it was cast. So even though a lot of people tried to react to it the lag the ult caused usually resulted in them getting bashed anyway.
#1 is well deserved but I’ve gotta point out that Brig just brought a serious design flaw in Overwatch to light. Prior to her release, 3 tank 3 support lineups were a strong option, most players just enjoyed playing damage characters. The game is won by holding positions and that was easy to do with a lot of health and healing.
"Taking number 9 is Akuma from Tekken." Imagine saying something like this to a Fighting Game player 10 years ago.
TBH Fahk is a better pick that Akuma. Akuma at his absolute worst pre-nerf still required ridiculously high execution to blow people up and you needed full bars to do it. Fahk is just stupid hitbox after stupid hitbox and way too much damage. Leroy was definitely the worst for T7. Not only was he broken, he was STUPIDLY easy to play too. The idea that pros would pick up a brand new character that's less than a month old and take him far in Evo Japan (much less take 6/8 top8) was unthinkable. Tekken is just too deep of a game to learn a new character to the level required to do that. Except Leroy was broken AND was extremely braindead and easy to play.
@@danlorett2184 Ah yes. We're talking about Akuma in Pro Play long before Fahk was released. Hell, long before goddamn Leroy was released.
I would’ve been shocked he got into tekken but unsurprised he was top tier once he did. Akuma is busted in almost every game outside of the marvel series.
Brig used to be able to tank Rein's 300 hp burst damage charge to the face and keep going. Think about that.
I still have nightmares about it
Not only that but in unlimited she was immortal in the right hand and I noticed she could cancel any tanks charge ram by ramming them at the perfect time at the right angle making all tank unless when being stunned.
But all hero games got broken character, battle born,paladins and apex legends got the same problems.
Caustic,gibby and lifeline are the worst in apex while Banglore don't get 15% penalty damage for small hit box while wattson hitbox is bigger and they nerf her to shit.
And contrary to popular belief Brig's reign of terror didn't end with role queue. It just took a small break/drop. She was dominant as hell in double shield (dominant role queue meta from time it was introduced till summer 2020) to the point that Blizzard just gave up trying to balance the character and sledgehammer nerfed her. LITERALLY 21 nerfs required and the character is still in a playable state (despite what ppl might think shes not bad shes just bad in the current meta) So even role queue didn't kill the monster
Meh Id say mercy gave a good run for her money
What do you mean used to? She still does. Rally 200hp+100 rally armor = charge will deal 295 damage leaving her with 5hp. When she hits the wall she can just shield bash/whip shot reinhardt away to survive
last time i was this early brig could 1v6
Tank? DPS? Support? wHy nOt aLL tHreE?
This hero when they came out was just disgusting, just take a look at 12:04 all 6 members of Boston shooting at brig and she just tanks it lmao.
Haha funny haha early totally not seen that one like 56 times by now
Yeah fr who thought it would be a good idea to give a 300 hp healer a shield and let her have a stun with a weapon that can hit people 18 miles away from you. Oh and did I mention her ult made her impossible to kill. Oh wait that doesn’t even matter because she’s always impossible to kill.
19 nerfs and is finally balanced
"Aphelios was League of Legends' most recent balance mistake"
Samira: Am I a joke to you?
You must not have played when le blanc was released, it took riot games only 10 hours to nerf her..
@@fizzmillo949 it says most recent
@@fizzmillo949 You must not speak english
Somebody forgot Akali right after rework with her W making undetectable to turrrets. But yeah... Aphelios, Akali, Samira, Yone(Yone is just dependable on items - if items are bad so is he) all of those champions were literaly a mistake, and Samira still is.
*I FORGOT ABAUT PYKE JUST BECAUSE I WAS ABUSING HIM, SO ADD THAT TO THE LIST* He was literaly pickable in everylane and snowballing so hard that at 15 min you coudl have full build.
Dont forget the juggernaut patch that turned Mordekaiser "ADC" and Darius into 100% pick/ban characters at worlds
“And at the number one spot, any new champion in LoL.”
Depends tho, usually new champ with UNIQUE mechanic don't get good result on release.
Ivern was, so does Yuumi.
@@Rncko You're right, sometimes they don't. So what does Riot do to fix it? They buff the everliving shit out of them until they are at the broken tier for a couple months. Fiddlesticks rework, Volibear rework, Yuumi, Pantheon rework, etc.
But Lilia is one of the most balanced champions in the game, and was so at release
@@jeroenverschaeve3090 Shes literally the only one in the past 2 years to have been sort of ok, and she isn't balanced lol. 700 movement speed, global Zoe E, spammable true dmg darius Q, etc. Just because she isn't samira getting pentakills doesnt mean shes balanced
@@obijuankenobi3814 yup, already have a high presence in pro play. People just didn't know how to play her at first because she is so different from traditional champs
Pretty sure this is 10th time I’ve seen this vid
lmao I looked at the thumbnail and thought the same thing 😂
It’s already outdated because Samira
Literally their game plan for all their "content" lately. Just re-use old clips and shit.
If you want actual eSports news an event coverage I highly suggest going over to Esports Talk as they actually do everything the score should be doing and not just churning out the same "top X" lists every 2 weeks
Well I’m sure there’s a lot of broken characters in games....
Joke’s on you then, for clicking and giving them your view for the tenth time.
Brig was the sole reason I stopped playing Overwatch
The game is better now
Same.
you should try it again, they made her doo doo recently and the meta is very fresh, as the best one requires immense teamwork and is still only slightly better than others. Most other things you can still run (besides bastion lul)
Might want to come back now, the game's the most balanced its ever been
They hit her with a fucking sledgehammer this uear
Man you guys gave me such a nostalgia trip, where Xin Zhao was the most mobile champion in League of Legends. Now every champion on release has at least 2 - 3 times his mobility besides for Aphelios.
But even aphelios can get galeforce
Brig can now be on the list of “most nerfed characters.”
All well deserved. Easy Sr back from when she was broken. Now the brig players will fall down to where the belong.
@@grim7048 I'm right there with you. I started playing the game when Brig was broken, and I intentionally avoided playing her because I knew I wouldn't actually get better at the game if I abused her literally broken stats. As such, I stayed in the lower ranks where I belonged because I sucked at the game and have slowly built up playing other characters who don't get value just for existing like she did.
I only played her in Random Hero’s and I will NEVER forget that time when it was just me on a point vs 3 D.Va’s and a Mercy and they legit didn’t even attempt to get near the point. Perfectly fair if three dive tanks pissed themselves upon seeing a ‘support’
@@tlkfanrwbyfan8716 Back in Brig's broken days, mystery heroes was an easy win if your team ever happen to get 2 Brigs at any given moment lmao. Literally unlimited heals and armor LOL
Remember when Aphelios ultimate could literally one shot your entire team and when they nerfed the ult everyone thought he was balanced but then it took everyone 5 minutes to realise the rest of his kit of also broken. He was so busted he brought over a new meme (200 years) and everyone abused him for freelo and he was permabanned in pro play until Riot nerfed him for the 12th time and now he is garbage. R.I.P Aphelios.
200 years wasn't anything to do with Aphelios tho, it originally came from a Rio tweet about Wukong rework.
@@sharpeiisbeast159True, but it was popularised by Aphelios.
They buff him for 10.21 though
@@chilasohai9446 doesn't mean he wasn't broken before
@@chilasohai9446 Bro I saw that they were buffing his infernum ult damage and I nearly had a stroke
Tachanka is about to go on the list soon.
Dude he just got released and let's just play TTS for a week and then we'll get him nerfed don't worry he's on just TTS so nothing to worry about. ☺️
Probably cause ubi doesn’t know how to balance anything
@@EbolaWagon this time they were wayyy off like they are listening to the casual base for Tachanka now. I think in TTS they'll realise and make changes coz all of UA-camrs and seige streamers are against it now.
@@EbolaWagon wtf is one of the most balanced games in my opinion but whatever

Can you make a "Top 10 most recycled theScore esports videos" video? I think this one should make at least top 3.
In spite of the fear of referencing an esport whose time in the limelight has long since past, I want to mention Lyra from Vainglory. She was the first hero in the game with an instant teleport, which was done through her ult by creating a tunnel that would teleport you if you stepped on one side of it. She was meant to be a mobile support, able to teleport into engages and restrict movement with her B (which created a radius which could not be dashed into or out of, when dashing was a major part of most hero's kits in VG) and provide ranged heals with her A (placed a circle within a generously large radius that healed allies and damages enemies). Her heroic perk was that her basic attack were followed up with a much faster basic attack if you kept the enemy targeted for long enough, which provided a slow and made it a bit harder to kite Lyra.
Here was the problem. You have a hero who has an instant engage (upgrading the ult provided extra range on her basics, by the way, which gave her the second longest basic attack range in the game behind Adagio), a self-heal, a CC which prevents movement abilities, and a basic attack with a built-in slow. Then, you give her a FUCKING CRYSTAL RATIO on her basic attacks and her A ability, which meant that instead of scaling off of health like a support should, Lyra could just build crystal items and have a basic attack which slows and deals massive damage, a massive self-heal (which, I forgot to mention, gave bonus move speed for a second after the heal ran out, could also be self-cancelled to grant the move speed instantly if need be to chase), the ability to ambush instantly, and a singular ability that hard countered, off of the top of my head, Koshka's entire kit, Joule's engage, Taka's entire kit, Blackfeather's engage, Skye's dash, Vox's dash, Glaive's dash, Ardan's dash, Rona's dash, Fortress' dash, and Petal's leap engage/disengage; at this point in the game, this was literally more than half the roster. The ones who didn't have movement abilities such as Ringo, Skaarf, or Celeste literally disappeared from the meta for multiple patches, and after 7 days of being released she had a 90%+ pick rate in casuals, a near 100% ban rate in ranked, and was hotfixed twice. Those were literal patches for the sole purpose of toning down Lyra. She was released in mid-2016, but at World's in 2017, Lyra (along with Kestrel, but for other reasons) STILL had a 100% pick or ban rate. Lyra was literally played or removed from play in every single professional match in Vainglory esports until her eventually "nail in the coffin" fifth consecutive nerf which finally allowed other healers such as Adagio to become viable in the meta again. There are many broken heroes in VG, such as 1.8 Skye having a weapon and crystal ratio on the same ability, or pre-patch Grumpjaw, or that time they decided to make Koshka's basic attacks reset her cooldowns by 25% every time she connected with someone, or Echo Gauntlet Ardan, but few heroes in any game can say they defined the meta, much less had the meta built around whether they were played after two back-to-back balance fixes for the sole purpose of fixing that hero. Lyra was an absolute monstrosity who 100% would have made this list if that game continued to be popular.
"Riot's latest balance mistake"
I guess you havent seen any Samira clips recently?
Samira is trash weak champ delu
The good news for Riot is that they usually find a way to balance the champ/make them not busted. Only a few champs have given them prolonged balance problems that took a long time to fix. Riot absolutely fucks up a lot with character design and balance but they generally find a way to balance the characters in a decent amount of time.
@@ivailoivanov01 Before her nerf almost everyone was getting a penta on her ...
@@Sneeqi Sure, never lost a game vs that weak champion, but I guess I have the privillage of being a jungle main.
sam hasnt even come close to truely bad releases. TF, aph, and xin were way more problematic then she is. shit nocturne was more problematic
Pre-release Twisted Fate: Can teleport across the map with very low cooldown
Dota players: Wait a minute, isn’t that just Nature’s Prophet?
Y E S
After a while, no cooldown at all
That's what I thought. 🤣 But NP doesnt have insane nuke and I think that's what make him balance.
@@zoulflyinghigh a core np builds items which completely stop you from fighting back so it's a nuke in a way
@@sayantanchatterjee3626 that is with item bro. Nuke that I mean is like a spell that give instant damage. Imagine NP have that without item. That will be OP as fuck as he can gank so early
*sees Akuma on list*
Well that’s not going to be the last time we’ll see T7 this video.
I still remember the lag everytime monkey king use his ult
The lag and the damage
The horror
overwatch finally made it to the top of one of these lists :)
and its only for thier shit balance Sadge
It's also on the top of the "most dead mobas" list
Versace_Sheets lulw it’s not either tho
Don't worry well get a Shanghai dragons video after grand finals, hopefully, probably not, yeah unlikely we'll probably get some random csgo vid before shanghai
@@vaports6984 I know right, they never make overwatch videos
I’m surprised there was no mention with fizz in lol when assassins went tank meta. Was stupid to see a fizz still be able to 1 shot you, tank tower shots and abilities off everyone on your team, then hop back to safety whilst also being untargetable.
Kassawin... didn't even get mentioned... why would they mention Fizz?
The worst part about Leroy is that we already had this situation with Bob in T6, but Leroy was even more broken. At least Bob in T6 was among a weak cast overall. T7 has super buff characters and Leroy was just that much stronger than all of them.
Overwatch's GOATS problem wasn't entirely Brig. She was problematic for sure, but there was alot that led up to the Goats meta. Nerfs and buffs before her release created the issue and she was just the culmination of the problem.
Arc warden: I fcking remeber my prime, it was great
Beta Jax and Twisted Fate are some of the most stupidly strong characters ever released. Jax was Way way way Stronger than Beta Twisted Fate When someone picked Jax not even the fountain was safe....
Properly executed tf could shut down the whole map. Jax was good enough to 1v5 mid to late game, but it doesn't amount to shit when your team is already 0-99.
What about AP master yi?
Xin,kassa,lb,rework irelia and akali were op
There was also the less fun variant of goats, swap your best damage (zen) for sombra to just win any fight with emp, because that ult is also pretty good. Brig was also nerfed to oblivion recently
I was actually surprised when I watched this. Normally, I never agree with lists regardless of the topic, but I was aware of almost all of these (I don't play R6:S), and I would have put them on a list myself. Well done.
Haven’t you guys done this like 3 times now
Every video is basically the same. :(
Nah they did individual game series, not video games as a whole.
I think they only did this one other time unless that was just fighting character. I know they did top broken characters in smash before and possible R6S. They did most broken snipers top. I think they recycle the theme of the videos but change the topic for the most part
You dont upload for far too long and you come back with just a top 10, you could have a lot more as a comeback
10 months has passed, now It's time to make a new one with Reyna having 4 dismiss as the top pick in most broken character ever.
Full heal and heavy shields after every kill was perfectly balanced what are you talking about
Incredible that someone could make a character more broken than the ones in smash, which doesn't even have competitive patches as its main focus
Laughs in ganondorf nerfs.
"Lols most recent balance mistake" "pentakill ult" laughs in samira
Samira isnt as bad as aphelios
She isn't broken in my opinion. Just another ADC
@@jacquelinelobner only after the largest hotfix in hotfix history...
@@jacquelinelobner yeah dude, Riot literally hotfix nerfed her LESS than 24 hours after going to live servers. She was busted
@@TheJimmyG91 Well she was only that broken for a VERY short amount of time, so she didn't really cause any long term damage unlike Xin Zhao & Kassawin
Brigitte was broken on release, but she's in a way less prominent position in these days even with the 2-2-2 lock
Bit too late unfortunately.
Wasn't it like damn near a year before they nerfed her enough for it to matter though?
You guys aren't wrong lol, might have been over a year tbh
That was the point. Instead of reworking the hero and coming up with a lore excuse for it, they decided to force players to lock them to certain roles with no ways of adapting.
when the only nerf left for brig was change how comp can be played
And on the first character is: coldzera with his 4k jumpshot smoke apw noscope!
I still remember the horrors of release brig. There was this one game she got nano boosted during her rally and my time threw 5 out of our 6 ults on her and she literally lived. She was able to stun sombra out of emp on reaction everytime. She was able to instalkill tracer every 4-5 seconds, stop any ult on reaction with her bash and her team wouldnt die at all during rally even with all of them being anti-naded. The flashbacks omg.
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I really liked watching Goats play at a pro level. Playing it was gods-awful, but something about it was entertaining- sure, there weren't nearly as many big flashy plays, but the level of coordination on display was often pretty hecking impressive.
When I first watched Owl it was fun to watch, but seeing every team play the same 6 heroes for 6-7 months was boring.
I remember one Reaper game where he got his ult after 4minutes and when he used it (another 5 minutes later) he did 0 dmg.
“The top of these still haunt us to this day”
Bro I know y’all don’t play Overwatch, like is there anyone in the office that does?(Tbh I understand, it’s frustrating and hard to grind through)
Still waiting on FOCC tourneys, Runaway vs Lunatic Hai Showmatch, Contenders Gauntlet, May Melee/Summer Showdown
I’ll be surprised if I even see a video about All-Stars/Playoffs/Grand Finals at this point
Very underwhelming Overwatch content but Brig was broke as Fuck™️ so at least she made the list
There are so many great OW stories that aren't being used here
Emil Buratovic right, at the least LAV going budget and still making a good team that managed to stay a fan favorite after Space, Agilities, and Kariv were traded
“Most of the top still haunt us to this day” would’ve been more accurate.
I think he meant to imply that Brig's effect is felt even today since the role lock was made largely to combat the incredibly stale meta that she created.
TheScore hates Overwatch. So do most other esports channels. The only exception is Akshon Esports, and they are partnered with OWL (But they did do OW content before they got the partnership) Literally nobody has cared about Overwatch since Brig came out, and despite all of the good things happening in the community, they ignore all of it in favor of shitting on the game. "Did Sinatraa Just Kill the Overwatch League?" No, TheScore Esports, one player leaving for a different game doesn't kill it. "How One of Overwatch's Best Teams Collapsed" Oh so you're going to talk about the Titans not when they win Stage 1, not when they get 2nd in Stage 2, not when they go to the overall Grand Finals, but when the org treats the players like shit and destroys the roster. I can't even listen to TheScore when they talk about Overwatch anymore, they don't care about the game at all enough to have informed opinions about it.
That's a shame since I bought OW a couple weeks ago because of Brig, since I love battle medics. She just doesn't feel like that and it sucks because I thought I would be having more fun than the standard squishy healer. I hate being that defenseless.
Bandai: we introduce to u, akuma
Community: he’s broken pls nerf
Bandai: wanna see us do it again?
Community: Nerf Leroy!
Bandai: What's that? You want one more?
He didnt even mention how Monkey King’s ult would cause every single person in the game to get a lag spike for like the first week after he was released
Somethign else i want to say is i wish Overwatch introduced role queue so much earlier, when the quad tank (i think it was quad tank) meta happened me and my friends just stopped playing the game, it just wasnt fun bc quick play would be 6 DPS and ranked was litrally full tank, it just ruined the game

Finally a new TheScore Esports video
In Destiny 2 there's an ability set called stasis that's centered around freezing enemies and creating ice crystals using grenades that can be used as cover or can be exploded to deal damage. For two of the three classes, there are ways of shattering the ice crystals such that they will instakill any enemy player nearby. For the record there are no other grenades in the game that can instakill an enemy. It just got patched somewhat a few days ago but I suspect that it will remain very powerful.
One little thing though: Post rework Akali is probably the single most broken LoL character of all time. People seem to forget that while she is nowadays a champion good enough to be played on a competitive level, she used to have:
-More damage on litterally every single ability
-Her Q also dealt damage behind her
-A stun on her ult
-Built-in healing
-Huge Cooldown nerfs on all abilities
-A 40 energy nerf on her Q from level 1 which means she could throw 3 at you at level 1 if played correctly (now you can hardly do 2)
-AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SHE WAS INVISIBLE UNDER TOWERS WHO ON EARTH THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA?
And yeah she is still being played by pro players to this day with all these nerfs...
I find the league's most broken champ to be Kha'zix with his reworked ultimate upgrade, the one that made you invisible once you entered a bush. If you rushed mobis after lvl 6, you could literally cross the entire map whilst being invisible. Riot has some really weird ideas every now and then
yeah totally, that or maybe.. just maybe, release tf with a point and click, ranged, AOE 2.5 second stun, Gate on his E on a 12 second cooldown and 10 thousand Km range wild cards

All I know it lion so I have a feeling your not lying bc of how accurate the lion segment was lmao. Nice vid
Me: Sees lion on thumbnail
Also me: well yes, but actually yes
Finger of death Lion?
Me: sees Lion
Also me: Experinces PTSD
When bayonetta came on screen I started having Vietnam flashbacks
Also pre-release TF gold card could stun towers. Yeah, towers.
About that EVO with seven (not six) Leroy on the top 8, one of them only played with him a few minutes before the tournament.
I can't believe they didn't add Black Beard from Rainbow the dude was so strong that he went from having an unbreakable shield to two which can only tank two bullets and he still sees play, legit every single team worked getting around this problem. To the full team spawn peeking to target B.B became a meta.
I think overwatch is really well balanced right now, blizz managed to put brig back in line imo.
Too bad role lock exists now.
I agree. Role Lock has also helped the game dramatically, at least at my rank. Blizzard is bringin it back.
Too little too late unfortunately.
I remember e-girl brigitte players saying she wasn’t broken in her prime lol.
E-girls should never be respected and should immediately have their opinions discarded, and kicked from any server they join.

Ok on overwatch if I play healer I'm usually a mercy main but back when she first came out, oh boy that's a story. I was playing on a team with no healer so I played mercy like normal but I was the only healer in a team filled with rude players. I try my best to support the team but we kept losing until my day one Brigitte came in. As soon as I swap I instantly became the target because I was doing so well. On the last game I single handedly took on the whole team, killed 4 and saved the game.
The sniper class in Killzone 3 was probably the most broken class I have played. You had a one shot kill sniper rifle and the ability to stay invisible as long as you used silenced weapons. What made it super OP was the silenced machine pistol secondary.
Brigitte ended Overwatch by herself.
I think Brig was the final nail in the coffin. OW was dying due to the lack of genuine concern over the state of the community. People rage reported others over character choice, false bans were given by an automated system with a farce of an appeal system, the developers openly stated adamance towards smurf accounts running rampant in lower ranks, etc. Streamers and other big names were treated like royalty, where they get away with toxic behavior that everyone else gets punished for and are able to force the developers to do something they want by threatening to stop streaming Overwatch. It’s a shell of the potential it had, and now no one thinks of it as an esport game anymore.
@@UndertakerU2ber Overwatch was never a good game anyway so no big loss.
@@UndertakerU2ber imo, brig was one of the first nails in the coffin. she just directly led to most of the other nails
I honestly thought I would see Blackbeard here from r6. He was insanely broken with his Shield with over 800 hp
Wayyyyyyyyyy more broken than lion ..... he literally could not be killed
we really need some smite videos. there's plenty of broken character releases, toxic characters(pre rework loki, persephone, etc), as well as drama with stuff like dm.
I was sooooo dissapointed, that you didn't mention gambler, but there it is in the end xD
but right now brigitte is one of the least played characters in the game
The game is dead mate, to the point that you get match with the same players everytime because noone's queuing
@@maniac3905 I played for 5 hours yesterday and I never found the same person once. I also didn't see any Bastion nor brigitte
Nurse on Dead by Daylight. She's OP with Bamboozle bro
I thought Brig would be on the list, but ngl, I never expected Brig to be #1. I thought Meta Knight would be #1
The difference is brawl was still playable, even against meta knight. Sure, he was unfathomably broken, but the game was still somewhat fun when playing as, or even sometimes against him. It was fun to outplay bad meta knights. With brig, it’s not fun to play as her, not fun to play with her, not fun to play against her, and not fun to kill her. She singlehandedly broke an entire game. The viewership drops when goats started being the only viable meta in owl are the most significant drops of viewership across any esport EVER. That thing is satan with a shield, and she frankly belongs at number 0, because she is in a class all on her own
Actually kinda surprised the Ela (R6S) wasn’t on this list seeing as though she was a 3 speed op with the scorpion evo that had extremely high fire rate, a 50 round magazine and basically no recoil and had 4 Ice cream cones that disoriented anyone in there AOE when triggered
dont forget impacts
LEEEEEEEEEEROOOOOOOOOY JENKINS
wait it's Leroy Smith
Alternative titel: Top 10 league of legends broken chars
man i loved overwatch so much back in the day, i remember playing DPS Zen for hours. sadly trying to play ranked and queuing against goats killed it for me
Same. Brig and GOATS killed Overwatch for me, shields shields shields, nothing but shields. How fun to be shooting at a blue shield all day. OW is kinda better now but not nearly as fun as it used to be. :/
U just gave me flashbacks of brig and goats meta man
tbh brigitte was nerfed quitte heavily and now is barely picked
i prefer it that way. no one wants to play against her again
isn't that due to rolelock? Like, they had to restructure the game itself to make her not-broken.
I'll never forget when I was getting into competitive Smash in the dying days of 4 (after casually playing since the very first game) and I experienced my first zero-to-death off the top at the hands of a Bayonetta. I was just like, "I don't know if I want to play this game anymore."
play melee and have fox do it to ya its the same experience but objectively better
Casually Rekt except fox isn’t broken. You can actually get out of fox combos and he has counter play, unlike Bayo
@@Roka7 and now smash community mad about sonic being OP,hell some random dude make a Tweet to ban sonic on tournament
@@Roka7 Bayo abilities were escapable but most players didn't SDI at all in 4. Esam made a video about how to escape actually. Then the nerfs happened and she kills much more normally now but regardless, much more comparatively powerful than the other characters within her game vs fox who isn't even necessarily the best character in melee.
Nr.4 Lion .... I was there when he came out ... Every Single Round in Unranked and Ranked you had Lion there ... I still got Nightmares about the Sound of his Drone x_x
Lion in Siege was such a problem. He was super strong that he kept getting nerfed, but it wasn't enough. He was banned from the Pro League until he was reworked.
Where's beta Jax? He could build an item that literally made him unable to be hit.
Yea he was strong, so as ap yi or le blanc when she was released...
@@Bibbes1337 A couple more that come to mind - tank ekko, endless variations of Ryze (though uhh, there is one Ryze in particular we will never speak of....)
are we talking about dodge chance jax
me seeing brig and doom everyday
I remember get my first Rampage at Dota at my first time using Monkey King lol
It’s really weird that the last vestiges of SF4 mechanics is with Akuma in an entirely different t game series + his own series doesn’t even use the FADC meter mechanics anymore lol
But they nerfed brig
Brig was so broken that she single-handedly killed the game.
dude, when brig came out, I was low plat/high gold in ow. I played her for about 2/3 days and got to high plat again. decided to stop playing her cause it just wasn't satisfying to kill everyone solo as brig, which is probably why I never ever got to diamond lmao. I regret that now. especially since she is a fun hero, now that I can appreciate her not being busted
release patch Cummans in AOE2, they rule soloQ during the first month of DE, they were insane, and the community start to say that the Cummans were turning AOE2 into League of Legends, they were just insane, not only they have the unique ability to make an extra TC and start making rams one Age early, but they also have and incredibly scout rush, and have access to the Steppe Lancer, who were broken on release with they extra range
Lion was literally intentionally added aimbot. I love Siege but who thought up that idea?
"You know how some hackers have aimbot and can see through walls?"
Uh yeah
*LETS ADD THAT AS AN OPERATOR
aimbot?
You mean wallhack
yh thats not an aimbot wt
you mean wallhacks, not aimbot....
Overwatch didn't die because Brigitte is OP, it died because Blizzard took too long to nerf her, she should've been nerfed to the ground and THEN given some buffs, but they were too scared of overnerfing her that she stayed broken for a long time. The game died because of that, much deserved so.
Yeah its a recurring theme with Blizzard they are always so scared to do anything to the heroes and it's one of the biggest reasons why a lot of people(including me) stopped playing
They shouldn't have nerfed her. They should've *BANNED* her to get some time to rework her from scratch
@@kwayke9 true, too proud to admit they fucked up imao
btw in brawl people orignally thought snake/diddy were the best for the few couple of weeks until m2k showed dominance in touraments with mk. He wasn't the unanimous best from day 1
you could straight up have this video for league exclusively and it'll work insanely well, that rework, balance, and design team just have a tendency to make completely broken kits, overstated champs, and insanely quick hotfixes lool
Brigitte made me quit overwatch. i honestly dont regret it at all
overwatch isn’t as bad anymore, they kinda fixed it
Keep lying to yourself
Brigitte killed playing reaper for me. It was pretty frustatin to try to do anything with reaper when you get stunned or knocked back everytime you try to flank.
Have you seen Smite's release Guan yu?
Just casually 1v5 and getting out with full hp...
Half of these are league, doesnt that tell something about the devs being superincompetent?
It tells us more about the game being super popular and this channel playing into that... imo. It's a biased list but I enjoyed it.
remove brig
remove role lock
instantly better game
Brigs not bad anymore and role lock is one of the best things they've ever done to the game (unless you refuse to play tank or support)
Im okay with removing brig. But role lock? Nah, only the dps get to have fun with that
Nope. Keep role lock. I am never going back to having 5 DPS mains who refuse to switch to a tank again.
Dude not only basher but echo saber as well that gives melee heroes insta double attack ignoring attack speed animation every cd well not only that but all items that alter attack types too
Nintendo 64's 007 when you played splitscreen and picked short guy (I forget his characters name) he was so short it was impossible to shoot him (Their was no crouch or prone back then) the bullets just passed right over him... If you picked him all the time you literally had a perfect k.d
