If they do any of those things he'll be worthless by Worm 05/12/2016, 6:35am PDT
In a game with characters like Tracer, Lucio, and Reaper if he has a slower turning arc he'd never be able to track anyone. The idea that you should just be able to blink behind him as tracer (why can't you do this without him seeing you?) and get a free kill is just ridiculous.

As far as him being able to be above Reinhardt that means that he's vulnerable to any of hero who can backdoor. Bastion has two or maybe three choices, be in some sort of doorway where he can can be simply gone around, be in the open where he simply can be sniped at range, or charged, or still gone around, and I guess a third is be in a corner which is almost the worst combination of the first two choices because he can be gone around and maximizes splash damage against himself. The heal is 25% of his health every second but that's something that even Mercy can outdamage, I've done it as Lucio who is even lower damage.

For some reason people seem to agree that Bastion is horribly overpowered but all their suggestions fundamentally break the hero, it seems nothing like TF2 turrets were where taking one out was almost a full team effort. Unless it was placed poorly or something like that.

I think the real issue with Bastion is that he is the best at standing back and shooting and since so many of the players are allergic to standing on points, moving payloads, or playing aggressively he counters them all.
