Fuck Junkrat players. If you play Junkrat, fuck you.
He requires literally no skill, and this is especially evident by the no-skill players who main him.
Just as with any character, can he be used well by good players? Sure. Except nobody actually uses him properly. They just throw bombs over walls until they get luck and hit somebody. It requires less skill than tf2 Demoman. If I mained him, or even regularly played him, I would be EMBARRASSED for myself.
Is he over powered? No. Not at all. He is easily countered and has low health. He just requires about a million less brain cells to successfully play and get kills with. Especially if you are as bad at video games as the people who main him seem to be.
Am I mad? Should I get good? Sure. Whatever. I'm mad. I just hope you junkrat players realize that you are the cancer of the game, and you should come to terms with the fact that you are about 10 times worse than the guy who picked a second Bastion on the attacking team.
Are you going to at least buy me dinner first?
>>339643969
Nothing in the game requires skill, news at 11.
>>339643969
The only thing that makes Trashmouse embarrassing to play is the easy Ultimate kills with the tire.
He's all defensive game and area denial anyway. Quit complaining if you decide to walk into explosives of your own free will.
>>339643969
>Should I get good?
Yeah. If he's so easily counterable, do it. Watch for mines, and maybe even go Pharah or Hanzo and push his shit in.
>>339643969
You can fuck the Junkrat players yourself by switching to Pharah.

junkrat is one of the most skilled base heroes in the game. landing direct hits with his grenade launcher requires skill. even more so when the direct hit launches the opponent in the air for requires you to have even better aim to get a direct hit again.
a good junkrat uses his concussion grenade to launch himself into the air and rain fire down on opponents with direct hits. especially healers as targets.
>muh spam
not even a good idea anyways. yea please disregard everything else about him.

Wow, what a fair and balanced Ult. At least it is easy to counter!
>>339646752
I get all gold with tracer pretty much every single game, she's probably the best flanker in the game and with her ultimate you'll easily score a double/triple kill from behind. She's also great for distracting enemies away from choke points by blipping straight to the objective. If you got your head in the game you'll never die either as you can just blip through enemies, fire, revert, charge, blip, etc.
>>339648373
>Loud as fuck noise coming a mile away.
>You can shoot it.
>>339646752
The best tracer and Genji players carry the game. It's absolutely annoying running to those players who actually know how to play them. You'll never kill them if they know what they are doing. And they kill the support when no one is looking.
>>339643969

>>339643969
Sometimes, blind firing bombs around corners and over walls is Junkrat's only option. Flushing out a chokepoint that way is situational, but extremely helpful. When it's not needed, I'm more than capable of aiming bombs and ruining your day, whatever character it is you play.
Unless you play Mei or Pharah. In which case you can fuck off. You don't get to complain while playing Junkrat's hard counters.
>>339643969
Why on earth does anyone play Junkrat over Pharah?

That was back when he had 250 health and sword bleeds
the only thing I don't like about the game is that the game is heavily geared towards defense.
attack is much more difficult than defend.
Junk rat is fucking great

I'm trying to get better at rocket jumping with the mine. I found out you can basically jump to the back end of hanamura point b and wreck shop on the turrets aimed at the doorway
Have you guys ever seen so asshurt about dying in a video game that you make up an elaborate shitpost on /v/? OP even mentions the fact that Junkrat isn't OP, but then proceeds to whine like a bitch because he's too fucking dumb to not get killed by him.
>>339660459
Mine jumping is one of the best tools in Junkrat's arsenal. It allows him to return to the action much quicker, gain positional advantage on rooftops, and also escape from bad situations. Fun fact, you can even escape Mei's ult with it, provided you react quickly enough.
what if
it didnt give you a big fucking notice that someone triggered a trap
this applies to junkrat and widow
>>339643969
>he doesn't play skillshot killshot junkrat
Why bother living? Just end yourself bro
>>339646752
I haven't encountered a genuinely bad tracer or genji player in ages. Maybe you should rank up. Hanzo and Dva are the only ones whose players are consistently shit
>>339657596
>A well positioned bastion will shit on a bad team
yes that is why reddit thinks he's good
>>339643969
Play shitty game get shitty results
>>339643969
>I just hope you junkrat players realize that you are the cancer of the game
As if this exact comment hasn't been made about McCree, Mei, Soldier 76, Bastion, Lucio, Hanzo... hell, basically all the characters. Let's just agree everyone is overpowered and shut the fuck up about it already.
>>339643969
I'll indulge.
>He requires literally no skill
The same could be said of McCree.
>No-skill players who main him.
I am a walking apocalypse sometimes when I play him. Learn spatial awareness and actually look for hints of traps and bombs. The bomb is usually VERY obvious and the Trap, while a bit buggy is still easy enough to spot if you're paying attention
>throw bombs over walls until they get lucky and hit somebody.
I rarely do that, I figure out where my enemies are and harass the living shit out of them, only wall spamming when I KNOW there's a bunch right over a wall.
>It requires less skill than TF2 Demonman.
This I agree with, but it's also more fun than TF2 Demoman.
>Mad?
Yes.
>Get good?
You said it yourself.
There are also not that many Cancer Junkrat players and I've seen plenty of good ones, who know to leave their Trap in reasonable spots, like back alley stairwells and drop it when they go sailing into a close-range fight in the hopes of poor footing by the enemy.
You chuck mines over walls for surprise explosions.
You use your Launcher for general spam and area denial. I haven't seen a Junkrat who just sits there and flings bombs wily nily over walls in a while.
>Is my rage unreasonable?
No, because these shitters do exist.
However, they're still better than Attacking Bastion 2.
AREA. DENIAL.
>>339661969
>I haven't encountered a genuinely bad tracer or genji player in ages.
This. I'm starting to hate Tracer because of how much she pushes my shit in.
>>339648572
This. Genji loves coming in and fucking my Mercy from behind before anyone can do shit.
Of course, this is assuming anyone knows to get a cyborg the fuck up off me when we are together. Which half the time they don't.

Post-nerf Genji
Hes based on pure skill
>>339646752
>tfw everyone hates on Mei
I just wanted to keep people off the objective.....
>>339652359
It goes through Rein's shield. He can still use his projectile to kill it.
>>339664051
Genji is MLG halo 2 tier, he has a lunge melee, a reflection and a fucking BR ranged attack. He's a touhou situational mother fucker, but god damn is he fucking squishy. I love how trash mouse is one of his light counters.
>>339644561
i get my tire blown up quite a bit, i need to catch most teams off guard. that must mean you are playing with shitters then
also, most people don't use rat to his fullest. they just trap and use the mine for denial when its a better tool for positioning yourself or in payload to toss the people pushing back.
i almost never use my tire unless i know i can hit them from a wacky angle otherwise the tire gets shot and blown up
>>339643969
Are you kidding me?
>low grenade velocity
>low splash damage radius
>can only lay one beartrap and mine
>no mobility
>low health
He needs fucking buffs and requires a great amount of skill to use effectively currently.
>>339664547
>playing junkrat on Gibraltar on attack
>no enemies on the plane
>>339664503
Im wondering if junkmouse's trap/mine can be deflected in mid flight
C.Mine might give Genji a little detonator with a different model if it was possible
Junkrats small form makes him pretty hard to hit and his passive makes melee a little dangerous if you forget about it but deflecting grenades makes quick work of the dumb ones
>>339652359
Reinhardt can hit it with his range attack. I've saved team behind me countless times when a tard rat sends it straight into the push
>>339665000

>>339648027
It can round a corner or come from the fucking ceiling and the explosion is the size of mei's ult area. Sometimes you CAN'T shoot it before it detonates and kills everything on screen. It will be nerfed, mark my words.
>>339664812
>requires a great amount of skill to use effectively currently.
Yes
>He needs fucking buffs
No
>>339665332
Well shit now I gotta.
>>339646752
Multiple times I've had the enemy tell me "Only good d.va player I've seen."
We're not all useless, senpai.
>>339665363
>Sometimes you CAN'T shoot it before it detonates and kills everything on screen.
Then you fucked up by giving him that position.
>>339643969
What's that? I can't hear you over the sounds of me popping mercy up with a mine and airshotting her.
so, do we know if jumping affects rat more than if you just walk over his mine while det'ing it?
i would love to have the ability to toss multiple conc mines, no damage, but able to det them one after another to launch myself in crazy ways
or a real nade jump from his launcher
>>339665498
You mean "around literally any corner in the game because his tire can jump, climb walls, and lasts for fucking ages". Yeah, our bad, he used it in the spawn and it journeyed around the entire map in hallways, then popped up around a corner in our faces. Totally fair and balanced ult.
>>339665684
Then don't hug the corner, McRee.
>>339664812
>low grenade velocity
>no mobility
I sincerely hope you're joking. You can literally just toss grenades around corners or at the point blindly and get kills.I do it all the time.
>>339665684
it has a timer you fuck, unless that changed after beta for some reason, its only 10 seconds
>>339665000
True, but you shouldn't be firing directly ontop of a genji in the first place. Not that many can, its more of a trip up for players who can aim it very well. Also he can't reflect grenades already rolling on the ground, which is fucking amazing.
>>339665118
Shouldn't even be doing that scrub tier spam. The IED however, I don't think that does damage to junkrat period.
>>339665787
Never play McCree. Have you never played the game? There are hallways everywhere, and the blast radius is enough to come out of a corner and hit people nowhere near it.
>>339656917
Oh he really stepped in it m8
>>339665657
I've noticed jumping helps, gotta get used to the timing.
Basically, you need to detonate it while you still have upward momentum to enhance that with the blast.
>>339665823
10 seconds is more than enough for how absurdly fast it is. I've done it myself, it isn't hard.
>>339658214
This image would have been 100 times funnier if there weren't any explosive weapons.
>>339665992
i got that all down, its just i was wondering if it effected it more though, im used to doing conc and nade jumps and shit from the old days of FPS

If you play him with no skill you're gonna die a bunch close range, if you play him with skill you can shoot people close up with your grenades. He does require skill.

I'll never hate in her again after a Mei cock blocked a Winston to end overtime with a well timed and placed wall. She was all like "YOUMEINOT PASS!"
