And I hate his trap too but I'm just really good at walking into it. It's super easy to overlook.
Just don't like him.
>>339685276
He's really tall too.
Like 6'5" does that make you upset?
>>339685276
I think that was the point of his design, he's a criminal after all.

It is so easy to run away from this fucker. Pharah and rein are pretty good counters

It's the most useful skill it has. If you use it well enough, the enemy team won't be able to react. Nobody ever looks up

CLIMB. WALLS.
his ult can also be destroyed while traveling and when it does the meter goes back to zero guess you forgot that
>>339687059
He's the only faggot worth to play in Overcrap.
I love the butthurt when you kill people with direct hits with his main.
>>339687002
Fuck all this fanart, the fanart makes him so cute holy shit
I don't need this
Wait a second that face.
>rewards being killed
what
>>339686758
rein doesn't counter Junkrat, Junkrat practically counters Rein. You can roll your bombs under him to fuck over his teammates. You can lob your grenades directly at his shield to tear it apart faster than any other character. Bear trap stops his charge if you can bait it out. best yet is putting your mine underneath him and bouncing him around so he can't protect anyone and likely ends up surrounded
>>339685276
He is my favorite character.
Extremely fun to play on Control mode, putting traps in doorways, lobbing grenades over walls, if someone gets in your face just throw a mine and have both of you go flying.
All of this while giggling like a fucking idiot.
He just doesn't give a fuck and is in it for laughs.
I love it.
>all the porn of Junkrat and Roadhog is gay
This pleases me...
The only person I struggle to avoid his ult with is Rienhardt
Miss that E and youre done for, since your only escape has a long windup and says exactly where youre headed.
Everyone else has an easy means of killing the tire or avoiding it completely.
>>339687365
When he dies, he drops a bunch of bombs
>>339685276
The trap is easy to miss, half the time it sinks into the floor so all you see is the edges and the plate. Unless it only does that for enemy traps, not friendly ones.
>>339687328

>>339686960
You also forgot
>Can be killed and has only 50 health

junk rat is great when ur aggressive and good with loch-n-load

Junkrat's spinny rubber can also climb walls.
>>339689028
you seem to have a hard time figuring out what the term "reward" means. It implies that it is advantageous for him to die. it isn't. An alive junkrat is always more useful than a dead junkrat
>>339689279
>>339689285
no shit that was point post you retard. Pointing out it was made for idiots who don't move away.
>>339689162
if the enemy is all together, all the more reasons to pelt them with grenades instead of suicide bombing them
you know
because regular grenades do AoE better than your death grenades do and have the distinct advantage of not killing you
>>339685276
I want to marry Junkrat
>>339686758
Can confirm, pharah fucks me up almost every time.
Junkrat is the fps version of captain falcon. He gains power by acting like a crazy daredevil asshole.
>>339685276
Test.
I once got a quad kill from a Junkrat's death grenades killing his own team after I killed him and I don't know how.
>>339689443
you seem to have a hard time realising that there wasn't supposed to be an award in the first place, it's just there to punish stupidity for the player that kills Junkrat for getting too close.

>>339690209
That's why I said I don't know how it happened.
>>339690328
it didn't. the bombs went off and 4 people you had recently damaged died from various causes

>>339690742
They took out KDR to move away from the killwhoring you typically see people do in objective based games. And instead invented a system that encourages it even more.
>>339690787
That doesn't mean anything if your team is simply more shit than you are. And the damage and elims medals (the ones these shitters will look at the most) aren't hard to get anyway since at least one person on your team should be a healer. And getting top 3 out of 5 is not noteworthy.
Eliminations is particularly egregious since most people seem to interpret it as kills. When even a shit tracer can top the board if she just taps enough people to get the assist.
>>339691053
I think they took out KDR less to stop killwhoring and more of to stop people deathshaming other players
>>339686758
>reinhart countering Junkrat
lmao, whenever a Reinhart is coming towards me with his shield up thinking he's safe, I just put a bear trap down right in front of him. 9 times out of ten they walk right into it, then I just pelt them with grenades for a free kill. I fucking love Junkrat.
>>339691254
>retards playing a class badly = not a counter
this is not an arguement
>>339685276
Don't own the game yet, but I watched his ability breakdown video last night out of curiosity.
Fuck, his voice is hilarious. Couldn't stop laughing. The tire looks fun too. Reminds me of the Seeker from Singularity.
>>339691331

>design is unpleasant
>>339691331
I wasn't making an argument, just an example m8. It's pretty obvious to anyone who's played the game Junkrat counters Reinhart simply because of his loadout.
>>339685276
His tire needs a nerf to its blast radius. That's about it. I wouldnt be upset if his shit had longer cooldowns or needed reloading more often.
>>339691237
They took it out so retards would actually play the fucking objective instead of crying about muh k/d.
>>339691881
>>339692064
No instead it's muh gold eliminations

>>339692517
It's silly because it's also basically a 10 second area denial since you gotta back up and watch out for it

Cool trick.
>>339692336
Yeah but nobody sees them
No scoreboard annoyed me at first but now I'm glad for it
I still know how well I did through stats in after game screen and medals for team comparison, but it cuts down on the ingame flaming a whole lot and makes people go for the objective
>>339687328
His personality adds to his cuteness. He's neurotic yet chipper.
>>339692612
well, Junkrat is pretty much Area Denial: The Character
>>339692517
it can climb walls and has a super large radius. you basically have to find a spot out in the middle of the open and watch from 360 degrees to get it. in which case you're fucked by his team instead

Do you drive yours out in the open where it can get shot? You shouldn't do that, bro. Don't worry, someday you'll be good at Junkrat

I've pistol-killed a tire as Mercy before. If you're accurate the tire is a non-threat unless the Junkrat detonates prematurely or comes over a wall.

>no black characters
how has tumblr not complained about this?
>>339693294
Don't forget to use his trap.
>>339693297
The game's audio prioritizes the fuck out of enemy ultimates, especially junkrats. You can hear him revving his beyblade over everything else. And if you can't fight and listen at the same time, then I'm sorry but fps might not be for you
>>339693348
there's pharah, lucio and symettra
unless you mean african american? which is rather classist
>>339692670
>makes people go for the objective
So thats why most teams are full of damage dealers, thats why hanzo/mcree/widow is part of 98% of all groups and thats why nobody gives a shit about objectives
Because they don't care about kills...lol
>>339693435
Pharah is Egyptian, Lucio is Brazilian and Symmetra is Indian. The closest person to black is Winston.
>>339693294
If you ever get a crazy idea and you go " no that's dumb" do it. That is how you junkrat.
>>339693428
Look I'm sorry you're really bad at Junkrat, but try not to take it out on other people. Just keep practicing!
>>339693529
All of those countries are black, bro. Certainly in regards to the SJW "people of color" narrative
>>339693526
At least it encourages it a little more, it's obviously not perfect
You actually have people playing healers and tanks and supports
>>339693564
Dude, using your ears is the oldest fps strat in existence. You should be able to locate ANYTHING using directional audio. Why do you think his ultimate makes the Kaioken seem somber.
The only time junkrat should kill you with his ult is when he positioned himself right the fuck next to you, like above you on a platform.
>>339685276
I agree with you. Everything about him is annoying as fuck. His kit feels kind of overloaded in comparison to other characters. There are just so many damage sources. He has that mine he can detonate, his grenade launcher, the bear trap, the grenades he drops when he dies, melee and his ult. And except for his melee all of them deal ridiculous amounts of damage. I mean his passive deals fucking 300 damage to someone standing right ontop of it.
>>339693762
>wahh waah people can hear things so I can't kill anything with the junkrat tire :(
you're just bad at the game, bruh. hearing something =/= being immune to something.
>>339692517
You can also hear the tire approaching and it's easily destroyed. You only have yourself to blame for getting hit by it.
>>339693746
>You actually have people playing healers and tanks and supports
Because some people like me want to win and have to counteract the endless stream of dps only retards.
I'd prefer a scoreboard, they will endlessly play dps and endlessly do very very bad at it because nobody can call them out on it.
In fact shooting that single ult will get them POTG too.
They took out a reliable system to determine if someone is actually useful - and put in a completely arbitrary one not only to make sure their itty bitty baby feeling don't get hurt, but to actually let them stroke their ego for pressing a button.
>>339693296
Overwatch should really have been an all-female cast
>>339694075
I would have preferred a scoreboard and dedicated servers, but this is 2016 so what am I thinking
>>339694075
>They took out a reliable system to determine if someone is actually useful
Yeah no
KD is actually often worth fuckall when determining the abilities of a player, a Mei can have a huge effect on the game with her walls or a Junkrat through area denial which is impossible to reflect in a scoreboard, even if it might correlate
And it leads to blaming and arguing which will further deterioriate the skill of the team
And 'calling out' someone on playing badly doesn't actually fix jack shit, they're not going to play a simple damage dealer just because anon told them they suck
>>339694269
the concept of a scoreboard that shows xp isn't a new one. overwatch doesn't even give us that
>>339694269
At the very least it could maybe not stroke them for walking out of spawn without dying.

>>339694269
The finishing accolades - you know the one they give just four or less players are perfectly fine to make sure your usefulness is noted in a meaningful way - blizz actually put in the counting of stats that do that.
But they show it only for 4 players instead of the team, because stroking their ego is much more important.
KDR is an extremely valid way of determining the abilities of a DPS - its that simple, who makes up most team?
DPS
They are also the bigges liability if they do bad in KDR - because THEIR ONLY JOB IS TO KILL - we the support and tanks do the rest.
And believe me, shame works perfectly well, its one of the easiest things to use to manipulate a person.
You don't even need to call them out, just show an actual big scoreboard at the end, show everyone's stats of KDR, assist, special stats etc on it, you can even leave in the voting shit.
The way it is now its literally "do what you want, nobody will notice unless its a POTG for kills".
That does not encourage teamplay or objective play in any way, shape or form.
>>339693885
You can literally hear the actual direction it's coming from. You're complaining about, statistically, one of the least useful ults in the game.

>>339694867
Honestly with assists you could see a tracers usefulness anyway.
A scoreboard worked fine for 30 years of gaming, this is only happening because now blizz is bending over backwards to make the shit players feel good about themselves.

Yeah I'd prefer the commendations to be available for everyone, fuck having only a few select people
>KDR is an extremely valid way of determining the abilities of a DPS - its that simple, who makes up most team? DPS
There aren't really that many pure DPS heroes in the game, Soldier is the most obvious one, but apart from that? Genji, Tracer, Reaper, Mei, they're all flankers and supposed to dump their load in the enemy supports and snipers. Same for snipers, but without the flanking part. Junkrat is area denial, McCree might be considered dps too but he's often played like a flanker also, and so on. So, a 'dps' that keeps dumping his load in tanks and other various targets and thus gets a high elimination stat is actually vastly worse than one that actually takes his flanking job seriously and kills their supports, allowing your team to break through and win the teamfight.
>The way it is now its literally "do what you want, nobody will notice unless its a POTG for kills".
>That does not encourage teamplay or objective play in any way, shape or form.
We're talking about pubs here, they're ever changing, it's unlikely that you keep playing with the same guys unless you specifically queue up with them. If it's just random guys then knowing their performance and shaming them is pointless because it's likely you won't play with the again, if it's people you queue with then they shouldn't be shitters and know their performance anyhow
You might have more of a point if we were talking about dedicated servers, though

Perhaps you should actually try paying attention instead of tunnel visioning. Good players always stand out.
>>339695109
Anything you called a "flanker" is a dps hero, they get mobility and high dps because their reason to exist is to KILL.
Eliminations are a worthless statistic - kills and assists are not.
A "flanker" with high damage done but low kills and assists = a shitter who failed his class and the stats would show it.
One with high kills OR high assists is doing his job.
With the proper stats it instantly comes through what they accomplished.
Its not about me personally shaming them - the people who get off on POTG and commends are insecure fucks they themselves will improve one way or another (and by that I mean either getting gud or playing a class that they dont totally suck shit at) when they consistently look like a total fucking joke of a scoreboard and never get a commend because despite killing those 3 dudes with an ultimate for POTG - he killed on 5 all in all and did 1500 damage altogether with just a few more assists.
They make sure there is no rivalry at all in the game, which is exactly why the game fizzles out in attention over time.
It gives a shitters a false sense of accomplishment (not even the usual false sense of accomplishment that games give) with
>PotG
>being present on the "scoreboard"
>getting commended on the "scoreboard"
Obviously if I thought anything I'm saying here meant anything I'd be sending this to blizz and dedicated servers would need to be a given for any FPS whatsoever.
>>339695407
Again, that is because assists and kills are dumped into the same stat TO LET YOU DO THAT.
Which is the exact problem I'm talking against.
I can notice if someone is good because I have awareness of my team in the game, doesn't mean others do though and we are talking about the SHITTERS standing out - not the noticably good players.
this isn't a risk of rain thread
>>339695540
>Anything you called a "flanker" is a dps hero, they get mobility and high dps because their reason to exist is to KILL.
I think you should be using burst instead of dps, dps is traditionally used for constant damage while burst is usually more important in this game due to hueg heals on stuff like Mercy and fizzle damage being negated by Lucio and Soldier and tanks and the like
>>339687146
I remember being retarded as roadhog and hooking a junkrat to death while trapped. It's been 11 hours already. Time flies uh?
>>339695957
DPS has been a synonym with "damage dealer" for a long time now anon, theres no need to specify further, I know it makes no sense but that is how it is.
nobody will understand if I say DD
Would be a more enjoyable character if he were female.
>>339695631
>Again, that is because assists and kills are dumped into the same stat TO LET YOU DO THAT.
Same tactic works even if they weren't. If you only count final blows, then nothing changes, except you get fewer kills. If you only count solo kills, then you merely encourage soloing.
>I can notice if someone is good because I have awareness of my team in the game, doesn't mean others do though
The classic "I'm good but everyone else is bad". Get off your high horse.
>and we are talking about the SHITTERS standing out
Oh, they stand out as well. I've lost count of the times people have complained about a specific person doing like shit.
And you're not going to make people play better by shaming them. The more you play, the better you get. If people point out the things you're doing wrong, they'll likely improve. Having people go "lol ur kdr sucks man" does absolutely nothing but make the environment less enjoyable. They already know that themselves.
>took me 5 years to hit pipes reliably in tf2
>play junkrat in the beta exclusively
>fucked up my demo aim completely after beta
>play ow now

It's ogre
>>339696276
Its a pretty simple algorithm to count valid kills for people and assists for those who only assisted.
The game already counts solo kills so you tell me its already "encourages soloing"?
The problem with that concept is that you can try and solo but will fare better in a group, not wanting to die like a bitch after every attack is what encourages teamwork, mutual benefits not a carrot on a stick.
>the classic "i have no point I'll just insult him again"
Shitters don't stand out only in specific cases - ofcourse you'll now come with a
>but im good I can tell them apart!
which I'll refer you to your earlier stupid ass point.
There are more stats in game than KDR - which I already elaborated on but you didn't read.
Why didnt you read it?
Because you are a shitter yourself and don't want it to be visible, or atleast thats my guess since why else would you be like that.
You say pointing out their weakness will improve them but you defend NOT being able to point out their weakness.

THIS. I am awful at Junkrat because i'm still aiming like a demoman.
>>339688282
>a literal tire on wheels has more health than a robot
being zendatta is suffering
>>339698265
Playing zenyatta is peekaboo. You peek, apply balls, take a few shots, and hide to regen shield. If you stick with teammates, you'll only be killed by surprise ults, snipers, and maybe winston if you're unlucky.

This.
Holy shit was I mad when I found out my shield, which can block a fucking rocket, can't block a goddamn tire.

>character with shield
>enemies can literally just walk through it
>>339685276
Am I the only person who was reminded of this guy when I first saw Junkrat?
>>339697753
We need someone to make this with an "Eliminated" prompt.

Not everything is dependent on K:D ratios. If you want to focus on frags, fuck off base to COD/Quake/TF2 MGE servers.
>>339698850
You people realize that putting KDR in DOES NOT mean taking out all those stats?
They could make a 12 person scoreboard showing ALL of what you've done.
But then how would cherrypicked results get you those delicious (Commend)s
>>339698714
hurr durr Calypo I wanna bbq bby
>Play Pharah
ITS OVER JUNKRAT, I HAVE THE HIGH GROUND.
>>339699185
Yesterday I was playing with 5 friends and we decided we would wait for the random guy with us to pick a character, and we all pick the same character.
He picked Junkrat. We were happy it was not fucking Hanzo, until we saw the entire enemy team was Pharah.
>>339699185
Pharah vs Junkrat depends on the map.

But that's literally how Blizzard meant them to be used, they even show it in the trailer.
>>339700279
I imagine the VA would be awful though, the whole "Girl who giggles and loves explosions." trope drives me up the wall with how obnoxious it is.
>>339691053
never understood this argument literally ever.
kills are important, you can have the best teamwork in the world but if nobody on your team is capable of making a kill then you'll lose 100% of the time.
deaths are important, they indicate how retarded your positioning/awareness is.
in culmination kills and deaths give a great indication of how shit or good your play is.
this is just another blizzard anti-bullying tactic, just like how you cant type mm1 without being instantly banned.

525 hour demoman reporting in
played the open beta and can confirm that junkrat is the lowkey tip-top tier
>>339685518
I know he is supposed to be tall, but he looks so small compared to 90% of the cast. Even smaller than a few of the women
>hear that big stupid fucking tire coming
>with 3 other teammates
>we all see it round the corner a decent distance away
>I start firing at it
>no one else does and he gets a quad kill
EVERY SINGLE TIME HOW DO PEOPLE NOT SEE IT?! IT GLOWS FUCKING READ AND IS LOUD AS SHIT! FUCK!
>play Junkrat
>my only hard counters are Pharah or Widowmaker if she has a good aim
>having fun rekking people on top of a rooftop with my nades and traps
>a rocket explodes on me
>goddamn pharah
>before I even check where she's at I blast myself away with my mine out of her sight
>continue to harass other players from a different spot
>repeat
I fucking love this guy
>>339700857
>enemy plays junkrat
>teammates might as well be deaf and blind as far as his tire is concerned
>I play junkrat

unf
>>339699185
as a junkrat player, it's not easy to kill a pharah, but it's super easy to escape from one
>>339698265
>tire on wheels
>>339692517
Torbs/symmetra turrets nullify it anyways
>>339698265
>zendatta
If you have a poo or dwarf on your team she'll protect you from body shots. If you have both you can play like you're a fucking normal hero
>>339691053
>Eliminations is particularly egregious since most people seem to interpret it as kills
You're just talking out of your ass.
They created a game based around objectives and it rewards players who play those, with opportunity to get their jollies off killing other players.
Want to have a sick K/D ratio? Congrats, the maps are designed where killing the enemy team keeps them off the point, but keeps you engaged in combat.
>>339685276
Fuck off you cunty
>>339690701
I despise the medal system because it makes supports more arrogant than ever. Congratulations you were in vicinity of teammates the entire game and got medals for it despite refusing to shoot at enemies when no one needed to get healed. The only good Mercy/Lucio I've seen are the ones that actually will shoot an ulting Pharah out of the sky or actually fire on the Bastion with the team to down him quickly with focus fire. Zens are the only supports that aren't total bitches

spot the Argentinian
