About the hog buff

he feels a lot better to play now, i still think he should have his 2x crit damage back, but this is a good start.

Yeah its not enough to fix a 37% win rate.

Before his 2023 rework he was at:
25 pellets
6dmg/pellet
2x headshot
Max dmg(300)
And most characters were at 200 hp.

Now (with buff)
25 pellets
6.5dmg/pellet
1.5xheadshot
Max dmg(244)
And most characters at 250hp

So hes significantly weaker on top of heroes having higher hp lol. They didnt think this one thru well.

To me, he feels about as useless as he’s ever felt. I don’t know if the pig pen re-work was a great solution, but this certainly ain’t it either.

I’d love for the entire dev team to sign a pledge stating that they actually play their own game, and for their play time to be provided and certified by an independent auditor.

He is broke in the sense you can play as him
But it’s incredibly hard to get value unless you are on the wel map and booking people into well left and right.

As no one, I do indeed agree with him. You right, homie.

I didnt get the memo that they reverted him back again with a hotfix… thought he was referring to the way he was at the beginning of this season, ie hot dookie balls.

I formally retract my prior statement and agree with OP

I know you were facetious, but you scared me so much I looked it up and YO, THEY FREAKING BUFFED HIM?!

When you make joke posts, you’re supposed to make an attempt to make it believable. My autistic brother wouldn’t believe this

I don’t think Roadhog’s damage needs to be so high as to invalidate the tank role altogether, so no.
