Seriously, in this game, anything can stop you from attacking the target with a jump or running away from it. You jump out, a rhine hammer hits you - and it knocks you down so hard that you don’t get to the desired place and die. Or when Lucio boop you before landing - you become useless.
also repelling a monkey almost always prevents him, and does not help. People press the jump and simply go out of the range of his weapons.
In general, my ideas
- Increase resistance to repulsions (either in general, or after using shift before landing)
- reduce the drop after landing or remove it
- I would like to increase its damage to 65 or 70 … dreams

Maybe you should also consider reducing cd shift, increasing health in ult

Winston definitely doesn’t need any buffs, I’d consider him to be one of the more balanced heroes in the game.

they should just reduce the amount of knockback he takes mid jump. the boob adjustments really screwed him over.

I adore this hero, he is my strongest (even took the top 500 on it with 55+ winrate), but unfortunately one enemy hero is enough for you to become completely useless 
95% of the roster has counter picks Winston is no different, also Bap doesn’t counter Winston.

Winston got his buff.
Mercy heals more. 
Its nerf winston btw:(
like usually when me jump on enemy support mercy start heal when he low and he still die after 2-3 sec.Now he have more time and chanse dont die:(
like mercy in enemy team its really big chanse for kill someone
If anyone is interested in whom I consider the main problems for winston
- diva
- hog
- doom
- TORB (TURRET HATE REALLY HARD). Like you use map texture like rollout doom and jump on enemy team with 300 hp thanks turret
- echo?
- bap
- brig
- ana+lucio in 1 team
- ana+mercy in 1 team
And… REIN HAMMER BOOP WHEN YO UWANNA RUN AWAY OR ANOTHER BOOPS
Add 30% critical hit resistance so he doesn’t get 2 shotted by a single hero.

Dont forgot Moira.
Winston cant kill moira.
Moira is not such a big problem as the same bap, because it itself does not represent a big problem and cannot protect everyone around with a single click of shift. You just start shooting moira and all her team and its nobad.
She also suffers from the fact that you separated her treatment with a shield - while the bap in such cases calmly throws the field of immortality
And moira throws a healing Orb.
And we know, moira can Keep Orbs at one place, if needed.
Moira orb its trash. If you take good time for winston bubble and blocked heal you can actually kill enemy tank (with team). Btw its good work vs ana.
Winston needs his 65 damage and cc reduction during Primal and he will really strong again. There is no reason to pick him when you can just play Orisa or Rein
One of the simplest and fairest buffs they could give him is a minimum damage on jump pack proportional to say, Hammond piledriver.
-Piledriver damage is 20-100 on an 8m radius.
-Monkey now is 1-50 damage on a 5m radius(imagine how bad damage drops off with just 1m difference).
Monkey at a 10-50 damage would be a start, as it would also affect the rate of damage drop off per meter.
Imma give the same answer everyone gives to genji even though more then half the cast counter him. Switch off if you are getting countered and having a tough time.
Monkey needs one buff and its against Reaper. He just drops like a rock against Reaper. More so than any other tank. Even with good bubble play. When they pick Winston I pick Reaper and like one or two good headshots and he’s down. Even primal monkey can’t stand up to a Reaper with decent aim.
