I just bought the Genji dance taunt and I don't even play Genji :v:.

Being able to get a guaranteed 1-shot really shouldn't be a thing at all.

I'm curious to know at what skill level these complaints about roadhog are coming from. Not because "hurr lower level players know what they're talking about" but because Roadhog as a very low skill ceiling and I think that's what the problem is.

No I don't see an issue with them being removed.

[QUOTE=Dom Pyroshark;52298976]People in top 500 complain about him being broken piece of shit, which he is.[/QUOTE] except none of them are complaining that he's broken other than the one taps from his right click.
[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;52298932]you really don't see the problem in a developer completely removing a character from the game because people didn't bother learning how to deal with him?[/QUOTE] I do agree that Blizzard should look into completely reworking the character similar to Symmetra instead of these number changes, but saying he's effectively being removed from the game is being a bit exaggerative. He can still perform the job he was made to do as his overall DPS has largely remained the same due to the trade between damage and firing speed. But yes, I do think Blizzard needs to consider giving Hog the Symmetra treatment instead of simply swapping numbers around and hoping something sticks.
[QUOTE=Dom Pyroshark;52298976]People in top 500 complain about him being broken piece of shit, which he is.[/QUOTE] Idk. I've only played with a handful of top 500s, but the only thing I've ever heard anyone say about hog is that he's a fat piggy that's easy to hit and "maybe gets cheap picks sometimes I guess" Worst I've seen is usually just a "WTF HOG" or "LOL" after a weird hook kill or a lucky perfect right click burst
if his hook's down, roadhog is basically just free ult charge, keep to cover when it's up and he ain't much of a threat to you; using friendly tanks as meatshields is an effective tactic if you're playing a high target priority hero like a support as you can bait a rein hook or similar. [editline]1st June 2017[/editline] not knowin how to deal with any given hero is gonna make them seem a lot worse than they actually are, genjis used to annoy the hell outta me until i realised you can take winston or symmetra and remove his ability to fight closerange or just stay untouchable on Lucio, shit comes with time and practice but it'll get better eventually trust me

Torbjorn is the POTG king. I had a game awhile back where 70% of my play as him was just an extreme closeup of dead Torb crotch.

Of my 5 placements so far, 3 of them were koth. How is this statistically possible? Only one I haven't played was Nepal.
My placements this season were pretty fun. I won 7, lost 3. One of my pals who jumped in the group placed in silver last season, so I think that could've brought my average down? Nonetheless, I placed in around 2750. I'm not super unhappy with that, but I still don't understand how competitive placements are calculated, exactly.

Comp: Season 5 - School's Out [editline]1st June 2017[/editline] Can't find a good game because I'm playing with a bunch of children. I'm now 3-4 on my placements because I keep getting placed with teams way below my skill level. My first few games were fine, good teams, good skill (diamond / master) and now I'm back in the plat hell of retards. What gives? Is this just how placements work?

I don't know why "terrible positioning" was ever an excuse for Roadhog. About half my hooks are yanking people who dared step outside of a Rein/Osira shield with the rest of their team and deleting them (if they didn't have a smart DV.a to save them, in which case I just hooked her instead), with another good portion of them deleting the people who dared try to flank us slightly. Maybe now Hog would feel like such a weird piece of shit when you get Nanoboosted vs tiny fast moving gnats. :v:
I think even Genji mains got over their fixes faster then Roadhog mains. Oh no you can't 1-shot kill 17 heroes anymore.
