Phoenix buff theorycrafting

For some reason, phoenix is my favorite agent. The abilities he has suit my play style very well, and I always pop off with him. However, that doesn’t justify his underwhelming abilities. I love to theorycraft about possible buffs/interesting ideas to gameplay mechanics. With phoenix It seems odd his hot hands ability has a sudden drop off after a lackluster distance. I can’t Molly much without it dropping off before it reaches. I think if it were buffed to not have a drop off, that alone would make phoenix considerably stronger. Phoenixes wall is short lived and doesn’t have much prowess in matches, I think if it did enough damage to deter people from pushing through it, that would suit his duelist role well, by pushing defenders away and creating space for his team. His flashes are a meme, due to how underwhelming they are, and they cost the same as the others. (Skye gets one for free, and its much more powerful) his ult is fine. Thoughts? Have you had any ideas on how to buff phoenix?
