A Hard to Swallow Pill

General Discussion

Doomfist is OP and lowskill. But DF mains will try to justify that he’s not both of those because he’s the only hero they can climb with at the moment.

It takes as much skill as Moira does to jump into the enemy team get a kill because you literally cannot miss your abilities, get shields and then fist your way out entirely unaffected by multiple enemy stuns because of your huge healthpool.

I placed on a DF only account with probably 4 hours ever played on him and got 400sr higher than my peak after about 12 games. (I almost reached masters).

Literally anyone can play him. He takes absolutely 0 skill.

He’s also not only good in double shield meta because if you go to QP classic or FFA you can see him grunting and fisting his way around in the same exact way getting hecca value out of his screen sized hitbox insta kills.

Lets see

Doomfist was not meta when he had a 5 second cooldown on his punch

If they give him that
He will return to obscurity

I’m not saying that’s the solution. I’m just saying right now he’s stupid OP and low skill.

Low skill for high value is a big problem.

OP is one thing, but to claim he’s low-skill…That’s just delusional.

Let’s try again, doomfist is not OP and you’re over-exaggerating because of your bias. Doomfist is easy to pick up but really hard to master. Also, are you really out here comparing Moira to doomfist? Doomfist takes skill.

Uhh I didn’t die to him. Read the post m8.

Doomfist doesn’t take skill lol. His hitboxes are so huge. Like you can’t miss his abilities.

I did read the post but it does not change the fact that you’re over-exaggerating. Doomfist is not a “low-skill/no-skill.” And you can still miss with his abilities. I’ve missed countless of RP.

You know what’s hard to swallow pills?
Your masters rank is a lie. Just look at the profile.

You dont tell any valuable points in this threads of yours.

If heroes takes 0 sKiLL & are sO oP & lOwSkiLL why dont you climb top500 with him.

Specially after the ptr change comes.

This is just like one of those other bait threads.

There are 2 types of Doom

  1. Ones who are really bad
  2. Ones who are SUPER good

There is no in-between with a doomfist player.

There are also 2 types of Moira not saying every single person fits this category, but it’s the majority in low rank.

  1. Ones who are bad
  2. Ones who are REALLY bad because majority of Moira’s never heal lmao.

Eh, I would disagree. I don’t play him but he does take some skill of managing cool downs and such. But, he’s not the hardest.

Ay man I can’t help you ‘‘if the pills are too hard to swallow’’.

Well, i honestly very like doomfist but i am bad at him. Saying he is low skill is just a loss of a frustrated low skill player.

Doomfist is one of the hardest to play characters. Not the hardest but for sure at the top of the list.

Doomfist is Overpowered but not no skilled. Sorry I can’t hop on Doomfist and Chipsa a match and thats even knowing some of his more advanced techniques (such as bouncing and turn punch).

Make your recital the circle then expand it to 55 on Moira that is the amount of screen you have to center someone in to make it connect. It is the same on Zarya, Symettra, Soilder 76, Tracer, Sombra, Bastion, Torbjorn, Reaper, Hog, mei, Lucio, Zen, Hammond, Orisa, and Sig.

So basically no hero in the game aside from Widow, Ashe, Mcree, and Hanzo require aim. (unless you are going for crits).

Sure damage orb can’t miss, but it can deflect out of the room you’re dueling in (same with healing orb) and if you see the purple ball and Moira just faded in she’s unlikely (even with siphon and damage orb) to be able to do more damage than a capable DPS.

your account shows you play mostly Ashe and Mcree 2 heros that struggle in the Meta because of:
Mcree’s low mobility, Ashe’s long reload times. Sure you may break shields but you’re spending a lot more time repositioning to get those angels. While doomfist has massive mobility to reduce his repositioning time. Basically Doomfist ignores shields thus he is meta.

OK. So, let’s assume for the sake of argument that I agree with you on the first point that Doomfist is OP. I’m not here to debate that and he is getting a nerf on the PTR so the development team appears to agree with that point.

But the second point is just false. Doomfist is not a no-skill hero. He requires a lot of skill. It’s really hard to take the rest of your argument seriously when you start out with him being low skill because that’s just obviously not true. It’s honestly a bit ridiculous, but beyond that it’s actually irrelevant to the discussion of balance anyway.
