Zarya is one of the few heroes that can't be instakilled even with a perfect combo (while as far as tanks go, both D.va and Winston have big enough heads that they get nearly entirely shredded by the M1), and she can basically shut down the hook entirely by shielding anyone it hits or deploying her own shield and running off. Decent Zarya players are just general pains in the ass.
Rein obviously can't 1v1 him, but if your team is half competent they'll actually stand behind the shield and just... shoot him.
In regards to the hook, would people find it more tolerable if it didn't disable the victim from shooting, but reeled in twice as fast (in regards to the pause) to compensate? Basically gives you a chance to escape with good reaction time if you see it coming but not remove Roadhog's kill option and still makes it good against unsuspecting players.

[QUOTE=Tobba;51790135]*victim presses shift*[/QUOTE]
Fair enough, I just feel that a lot of the complaints for different qualities of heroes very frequently stems from them either having a stun that disables being able to shoot (or move, including slowdown in this) or them having a property that prevents any form of damage from getting through (i.e. Zarya Bubbles or wraith), and that ultimately the only way they can really satisfy people that find them problematic is to tweak these properties to deny interaction less readily.
How about a hero that revolves around time?
Support Class Hero:
First ability - Accelerate: Heals a single target ally and boost their movement speed.
Second ability - Degenerate: Damages a single target enemy and reduces their movement speed.
Ultimate: Chronohold - Slows down gameplay to a crawl (like when the round/match is over) for all players except for one ally you choose.
Main Weapon: Keeper Crossbow - A high tech semi-automatic crossbow with a slight knock-back if it hits a target. Has three shots until reload.
So basically Mei strapped to Lucio?
[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;51789285]I feel like half the time they should rename it [I]""Mystery"" Heroes[/I]. I just constantly get the same 3 characters no matter what, and half the time both teams have duplicate heroes.[/QUOTE]
they should either ensure you dont get the same hero twice in a row, or if you do, you keep your ult charge. its retarded to get like a good amount of ult charge, die, you somehow get the same hero again but you have 0% ult charge for no real reason
and as someone suggested in the past, probably make sure that your team has at least one role filled (no matter the hero) in both tank and healer
[QUOTE=Tobba;51790186]So basically Mei strapped to Lucio?[/QUOTE]
Not necessarily. Only one person is speed boosted and there is no frozen effect. Plus it doesn't have to be the same speed rate as Lucio or slow as Mei.
I hope we have some breathing room between events. Each event I have a harder and harder time trying to get what I want because they come so suddenly after the last.
When he's released, Doomfist should be able to [B][I]FLEX[/I][/B] his way free from hooks.

He grabs the chain and pulls Roadhog towards him instead.
[QUOTE=Snood_1990;51790338]He grabs the chain and pulls Roadhog towards him instead.[/QUOTE]
That'd mean road could pull himself up after falling down an edge.
I like this.
if doomfist doesn't have a cross counter i will be thoroughly disappointed
I want it so that if Reinhardt tries to pin him, he just kinda stops him by putting his hand on Rein's head
I hope Doom vs Rein fights are badass as hell, Rein vs Rein is already pretty cool.
I hope Doomfist has more of a personality than "I like punching"
[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;51790606]if doomfist doesn't have a cross counter i will be thoroughly disappointed[/QUOTE]
He better have a machine gun blow
His ult should just be an instakill suplex
[QUOTE=QUILTBAG;51790730]I hope Doomfist has more of a personality than "I like punching"[/QUOTE]
Every character can only have one or two character trait(s), so Blizzard can use the other cliches and tropes to make more characters.
Looks like the server browser is up on PTR

[QUOTE=Tobba;51789450]Both a decent Genji and Tracer will fuck him up as well since they're incredibly tiny and can perfectly dodge it if you have a decent reaction time.
Genji's deflect hitbox is also the size of a fucking truck so you can deflect his entire ult by jumping anywhere vaguely near him, I suspect anyone decent at Genji already knows this though.[/QUOTE]
Genji only counters ulting Roadhog, otherwise the best you can do blow your abilities to run away. [QUOTE=DeEz;51789587]I like Roadhog. He's a nice ult battery.[/QUOTE]
I'm not sure why people think "ult battery" is some kind of magical balancing wildcard that fixes any problem.

real talk can they stop pussyfooting around and just buff her healing which is what really needs to be fixed atm
Woah, blizz actually made a balance change to a map! And it's Eichenwalde's castle entrance!

Yeah just keep buffing the only reason people pick her and just make it more annoying to deal with.
You can apparently create your own buffs and nerfs on the custom servers.
edit: Jeff just confirmed if you want, you can do 1v6 with a superhog on one team who has insane stats.

[QUOTE=E.C.S;51790961]Yeah just keep buffing the only reason people pick her and just make it more annoying to deal with.[/QUOTE]
there is 0 reason to pick mercy as long as ana is the best single target healer. damage boost also means fuck all, a good rez is harder to get compared to how easy it is to do an effective ana ult, and if you can aim well ana seemingly has (to me, idk about the actual math) better DPS along with being hitscan.
how do you even think her healing is the only "reason" people pick her lmao (as if people even pick her in the first place,) if you want mercy healing you pick ana not mercy.
