Tbh I'm not sure why Roadhog isn't receiving a nerf. The Hook -> Kill is basically the same thing as what Mccree is getting shit for, just with a crazy range.

Because he gives free ult charge and can't mitigate for the team.
>>
>lower damage on fan
Even he does a little more trouble killing tanks he'll still be an OP character that dominates competitive. His flashbang is just fundamentally too strong.
>>
>>340372829
He doesn't melt literally everyone like McCree does, and his hook isn't a guaranteed thing like the winbang.
McCree's probably is that he shits on EVERYONE with his combo, even the tanks whose job it is to harass him away just get stunned and killed instantly

They need to shorten his chain a little bit. The hook/kill combo is fine, but it shouldn't reach 10 fucking miles away.

If a Roadhog takes a sippy in front of you, you just got a free 25% ult charge, minimum.

any other heroes can be strongly debated on whether or not they need nerfs or not.

it has a short ass range and you have to be like right in front of it for it to stun you. It can literally go past you.

You're only stunned just long enough to get killed by the fan. Ranged heroes easily counter mcree, he's not hard to deal with. The flashbang is not at all op.

Slow movement doesn't matter in the slightest because you're still firing off 90% of your JUSTAUGH while floating out in the open. Just accept that your ult needs to be paired with a crowd control ult or other form of distraction.

McCree is OP but it's not insurmountable.

If McCrees short-range game is nerfed than all the casuals will jump ship to reaper.

I think McCree should be nerfed but in a way that incentivizes more use for him than just being a short-range flank & shank.

I would give his hammer fan a 10 second cooldown but increase its accuracy.

The hammer fan is currently OP and also spammable due to their being no cooldown for it. Combined with the roll-reload it's a broken tactic as it stands.

There's actually nothing OP about McCree if you're not a herpderp retard who walks close to him. Widow, Soldier 76, Reaper, Junkrat, Pharah counter him EASILY.

yeah I'll just not go within 10 meters of any door, overhang, or corner, so McCree can't pop out and winbang me. I've seen them do it further than 10 meters too, wait for an enemy to pass by a doorway, combat roll out, flashbang+fth, then back into the shadows.

Her Ult in held back by the fact that it's only reactive, it's worthless until somebody dies. Always go for her first or you lose the fight. Every other Ult can be use to start a fight, end it, or used anywhere in between. As long as you get the Mercy first, her Ult is pretty garbage.
>>
>>340374468

Widowmaker's counter is anyone smart enough to get through choke points.

D.Va, Genji/Hanzo and Winston can make short work of her. Just boost up close and knock her out of her nest. Avoid her one poison mine and you're fine.

Widowmaker's primary fire is so weak it can't event knock over the popcorn in the movie theatre spawn point.
>>
>>340376002
Which is all it needs really. His duelling capabilities are his 'thing'. Being able to instafuck chars like tracer and genji is what he's built for. But the fact that he can melt tanks like butter is retarded and needs to be fixed.

Its should be be that fan does less damage the higher hp the enemy has. But im not a game designer so what the fuck do I know?

I think they'll either nerf the fan damage or make it so that the flashbang duration is shorter depending on if the target actually has vision of it (similar to CS flashbangs).

Imo junkrat is one of the strongest heroes right now. The amount of damage he is able to continuously spew is pretty ludicrous.

The balance of this game is fine. Turrets and hammerfan could use some minor tweaking but that's all.
>>
>>340377410
genji should be reclassified as a support character, he's so good at just harassing and distracting the enemy and making concentrated attacks difficult because he's throwing ninja stars into your mercy's asshole. I don't think harassing like Genji does should be considered offense since you can do the exact same thing just as well on defense.

its not very intuitive at first glance, in their defense

when looking at bastion transform it's difficult to tell where the head moves to and people chalk up the real weak point as just an aesthetic design aspect of Bastion's turret mode

>>340375367
>>340374953
>>340374747

Her Ult is much better when you use it as a Finisher and not as a Starter.

KOTH and 2 out of 6 enemies are dead? Justice the rest.

If you go for full health enemies they'll just gib you, but if you go for enemies that just got out of a fight or are in one, you'll clean them all before they have time to react.

Right click is a ball that explodes after some distance traveled. It doesn't deal as much damage when it's in the ball form, but it's like the regular left click once it exploded.

It's a mid range shotgun.

>>
>>340378652

So what does it mean when the 100 pops up beside her death?
>>
>>340378443
alt fire is a delayed shotgun blast.
basically, it shoots out the big chunk of metal, and if that hits someone while it's still in chunk form it will do some damage. Not a lot, but a fair amount. but once it splits apart it after a set distance it becomes a normal shotgun blast, so with the right spacing you can get a perfect meatshot right in somebodies face from a few feet away just like if you had it shoved right up against their face which is what can really fuck somebody up

>>
>>340372829
The kill really only occurs on 200hp characters, anyone 250 or above is safe from the first combo and certain characters like Reaper can just ghost/blink whatever the fuck away if the server decides to let them.

He also has 0 armour and is just a big fat ult building machine, more of an off tank than a main one.

>>340377647

learn the polygons of the structures on the map

once you know where the flat surfaces are that you can wall ride climbing right up a wall and staying there becomes infinitely easier.

note I say learn the polygons but you can get away with getting a feel for the timing of doing the wall jumps, its just that for me it was easier to observe where the surfaces actually are rather than rely on instinct.
