>>
>>337195601
Considering literally no one takes him seriously, yes. Also, he's not entirely edgy, as he has a decent sense of humor. Plus the game pokes fun at his edginess- his "Hi" emote is funny because of his horrificly deep voice contrasted with the simpleness of "hi" making him seem much less threatening.
I still love him, he's such a fun anti-tank.

mei is my favorite anti tank. she kills them slower, but that just wastes more of their time and pisses them off as you spin in circles repeatedly freezing them.

McCree is the greatest for sure man, instantly my favorite, nothing quite like being the fastest gun in the west. Then it's probably a close tie between 76 and Genji. I'm glad Genji is actually such a high skill character, and his movement is so insanely good it makes him incredibly fun and 76 is just so versatile and straightforward while being lethally effective and looking really cool.

>>337198248

He plays the objective shittily. Ultimately, he's either in one of his two or three optimal positions, or he gets gangfucked without benefiting his team any.

++++++ He charges ults.

That said, he's nasty, but you'll never see him in comp because he's slow and your team doesn't benefit HEAVILY from doubling up on him. Also, Tracer is a soft counter and she's popular right now.

He's one of the better designed characters, and should be the power meter for balancing, characters weaker than him should get buffed, and ones stronger/more broken should get nerfed. He's just right.

I love seeing how they react after I get up and continue shooting them. Its like they don't have any idea what to do after the initial charge. They either put up their shield which I just walk through and shoot them, or they spin around in circles while swinging their hammer in hopes I'll die

Lacks range on his hook to be effective on most maps and in plenty of open areas.

Lacks range on his weapon even on right click to do any considerable damage to anything NOT hooked.

Hook is wonky as shit, sometimes dropping the hooked target either too short, gets caught on some geometry, or flat out ends up behind pulled behind you, letting them retaliate or trigger an ability and get away/drop your ass/get into your team for a beautifully positioned free ultimate.

Huge hitbox, large HP pool, self heal means he's gonna charge your enemy's ults like no tomorrow.

Ult will seldom do any real damage outside of cornering/walling someone off (at which point you can do it with a hook/shotgun combo anyway). At best serves as a "push people away for a few seconds hopefully off the map" area denial tool (which still fails to high mobility heroes or anyone that shoots at range anyway like Pharah, Junkrat, Widow, etc).

Shame he's the most fun to play, but also the most garbage.

I feel he, Tracer (albeit having design issues), McCree, and Mercy all kinda fit that area.

Tracer's just stupid because she has a one-button full heal and her weapons don't promote skillful use. McCree's flashbang also doesn't fit his character.

Widow needs
her Mine's buffed
her full-auto's damage rate of fire buffed, so she does more damage but has to reload faster
her body shot damage nerfed relative to headshot
and her grappling hook having some sort of cooldown (albeit maybe reduced) for missing


But Roadhog really is perfect from a gamefeel perspective. He's powerful, intuitive (both in use and counters), and fills a unique role in the roster.

You don't want to wait ten seconds between getting a kill.

You don't want a useless ult.

Reaper has hire mobility, but as a sniper McCree is essentially built to have a higher skill cap. So if you have good enough aim to notice this issue, you should play McCree except for counterpicks.

To be honest, I think this is something that will get fixed with experience. Towards the end of the beta I saw many, many Reaper ults getting rekt by the team immediately focusing him down before he got any damage off.

It's the same with Bastion. He got more useless the higher leveled both teams were.

Yeah Reaper is one of those guys that you should always know where he's at if he hasn't ulted in awhile.

His ult is super easy to shutdown if you're prepped for it. Roadhog hook, mccree stun, and I'm sure plenty of other things take a dump on it.

It's more a reflection of how bad a team is that they allowed a Bastion to get PotG.

If Bastion gets a PotG and it's not a tank-mode-point-masacre then the opposing team is a bunch of lemmings.

Fun fact: her shields will always absorb at least one attack entirely. If the attack does more damage than there's shield left, then the damage doesn't spill over to the players' health pools.

So for example she can completely protect herself and one other from D.Va's or Junkrat's ult with barely any cooldown.

sometimes i wonder what the design documents for these characters look like.
was reaper meant to be the character for 11-year olds?

was roadhog meant to be the flowchart character where you hook+melee+shoot and heal up whenever you miss a hook? was he even meant to exist? he sure doesn't act like a walking stereotype like the other nationalities do, besides being a criminal from australia which junkrat already has covered

it is a mystery

Genji at least has an escape option if he gets too close to her. And he can then whittle her down at a safe distance before going in for the kill. I can't count the number of times I've dashed away from her then backpedal shurikend her fat gook head.
I'd argue the tanks get fucked the hardest by her. Too slow to escape and too weak to kill her fast enough

Reapers ult isn't something you should reflect.
It almost always only gets him to 30%, for some reason. I think it double the falloff distance for the shotty spread or something. Either way, you're better off dashing out and starring his head, or starring then dashing in.

Dude, Winston is universally considered a Genji hardcounter. More than Mei, or Symmetra could ever hope to be. The only scenario where a Genji will beat a Winston on his ass 1v1 is if either the Winston is a drooling retard or you can perfectly land 4 shuriken headshot bursts in the time it takes for him to close the gap and melt you. You wont and nobody can at this point either. Not even Seagull

I've honestly never had a problem with Winston as Genji, just be aware that his landing damages and abuse your movement. Hell run him into your teammates if he thinks chasing is a good idea. He's not that strong.

That's because you've only played shit Winstons. I made it to level 30 and Winstons were literally the only character I just couldn't kill alone. I could deal with meis fine and symmetras as long as I wasn't caught in her sentry nest right next to her.

>and abuse your movement
For fuck's sake, Winston counters Genji BECAUSE he nullifies Genji's movement options while also tanking his shurikens. His jump back goes much further than Genji's dash and it has a cooldown twice as fast. And he doesn't even need to aim his tesla gun when he's near you, so double jump and wall climb jukes do nothing.

>>337208187
He isn't wasting time if he catches you and he closes the distance very fast. Winston's entire role is to be a hyper offensive tank that jumps in on people and causes havoc. If he spotsd a Genji that threatens the squishies on his team, you bet your ass it's in his interest to go for yo.

Well yeah thats his whole gimmick, his damage is shit but he's one hell of a shit stirrer if the enemy can't deal with him.

Less of a problem than you think since he hard counters half of the roster. Ideally you should be running around the payload/objective healing constantly while the enemy team desperately tries to kill you the entire game.

Meanwhile your team wins the game.
