I can tell you don’t play DF, so I won’t bother trying to refute your claims.
Instead, I’ll tell the truth: its easy to die when playing Doomfist. Every stun, every sniper, every CC will be coming your way, and if you don’t have the skill to get out of that, you’d better switch characters.
Just give him the D.Va treatment. Sledgehammer nerfs until nobody in their right mind would pick him.
Keep it coming…
Before you have to take shots instead.
I’m pretty sure you misspelled Mei.
Nice logic. Knowing how he works is so gonna help you when you’re Zen…
I don’t think he should be deleted but for god sakes, rework his entire kit. It’s all around combos and OTK’s. Not to mention his 4 second cool down for rocket punch. I think if they just increased all the abilities cool down and maybe not make him able to quickly use all his abilities at once, he could be alright. Seems to me that he engages into a fight, gets a kill and plays the “get out of jail card” to escape. Also, his rocket punch is so buggy it doesn’t correlate to physics. There has been countless times where DF just aims in a general direction with no precision and lucky hits me. Not including DF rocket punching me at a side angle and the game decides that I hit the back of the wall. Seems to me the developers wanted the victim of DF to be also hit by a back wall no matter what position you are in. Please nerf this character because he DOES NOT take skill to play. Press a few buttons with a sense of general direction and get a kill. How is that supposed to feel good to the other player. When I play widow I have to perfectly aim at a players head to get a kill, and people say that she is not skill. There is a huge difference between a precise dot and an entire screen to aim. Developers need to play the game and listen to what I’m saying.
Well…
3 CC abilities
250 HP Standard health
30 Shield gain now per hit max
An ability that can instakill somewhat 3/4th of all heroes.
I mean he can be countered in many ways but his kit just seems a bit overkill in some situations. Nerfing him or Buffing others wouldn’t help as that would cause more problems, a rework would just be too much wouldn’t it. What would you even rework it to? And well new heroes can counter him, well not the current ones but maybe the next ones?
I used to play DF alot and well i really love the hero as it really gives you glory but it just feels like i’m ruining someone elses experience too by playing him. Playing him yourself just feels different than being killed by him.
I don’t feel like the recent nerfs have done much to him but that could just be me… His current state could get some little adjustments but i don’t know what exactly.
I’ve said it many times and I’ll keep mentioning it until it hits home, but Doomfist with a slightly increased model size, a bit more base health/armor, reduced burst damage, increased clip size/regen and maybe the ability to punch vertically as well would make a great disruptive/dive tank.
There’s already a ton of interest in his playstyle and it wouldn’t be that different with this design. Take some of that interest away from the DPS role, add it to Tank, and address the one shot combo frustration simultaneously.
Lol, is #DeleteBrig gonna get a friend in #DeleteDoom?
You can use abilities and fire for .2 seconds while doing the worlds highest vert
Still dead meat
I wouldnt mind doom if he didny have that dumb shotgun and his aim recticle actually had to be on a target to consider it a hit
Just git gud and be ready when he dives. Flash, hook, freeze or trap him.
yeah that’s totally possible when you are playing dps or heals. I main widow and DF comes out of nowhere and “e”, “shift” shotguns me. while in the mist of that i can’t grapple or move for the life of me. Tell me how to “git gud” when he sits hiding like a no skill coward that he is.
Knowing that you can’t do much as a tank doesn’t help you, and nobody wants to play Orisa.
What’s the problem with the hero? He has soooo many counters and ways to deal with… Even against a good doomfist I never had a problem dealing with them…
His counters:
Roadhog- hook can ruin a combo and one shot him, Road has enough hp and healing to ignore doomfist as a whole…
Orisa-halt can disrupt a combo, fortify make her invurnable to him.
Ana- Sleep dart let his barrier decay, the team can kill him within seconds
Junkrat-trap stopps combo, mine creates distance and a lot of damage, grenades have burst damage
Mccree- stun+fan the hammer=deadfist
Torbjorn- turret immune to Doomfist and can detect flankfist,armor lets him survive the combo, has burst damage
Bastion- immune to combo, can melt doomfist within seconds
Sombra- hacked doomfist is just a target with legs
Pharah- keeps her distance+burst damage
Widowmaker- keep her distance+burst damage on doomfist big body and head
His fair matchups
Hanzo- can leep out of combo, burst damage. doesnt keep his distance and because of that can be killed if not being awayre
Ashe- can keep her distance and use her shotgun in order to get away, but no enough damage
Reaper- Can wrath out of combo, burst damage, can not stop a rocket punch if wrath form is already used
Zarya- Can bubble focused team member and gain energy, not enough damage to kill doomfist
Moira- Can fade out of combo, consistent damage, not enough damage to kill him.
Doomfist is one of the heroes where if you don’t pick a counter and focus him he will shred you but if you’re aware and actually counter him he becomes a joke, an ultimate battery with legs…
Personally I believe the best counters of every role are
Roadhog,Ana & Bastion. completely wreck him…
People are way too salty. Honestly, git gud. No amountt of whining on the forums will redo the past “traumatic” experience you people have had encountering DF. DF is designed to pick people off. If you’re on your lonesome on some ledge ofc he will focus on you because that is his job. Same goes for Sombra, Tracer & Genji. Swap off Widowmaker then and play Mei or McCree. Every game is winable unless you have 4v6.
This defeatist attitude people is so annoying.
Doomfist should be reworked into a tank who can’t one shot. If Symmetra can switch roles, so can he.
I really don’t think you understand. First off, widow is supposed to be backlining and trying to pick off people. Not my fault DF has so much mobility and OTK in such a bs way. “switching off to mcree” doesn’t work either, he still can OTK mcree even if he lands the stun. Other heroes like roadhog and bastion heroes? Sorry my team is off doing their own thing and being stupid.
If you could git gut so easily tell me why you’re stuck on gold with tank and dps.
(Okay rank shaming is not okay but still “git gut”)
That’s fine, however picking people off in the middle of the enemy team, then escaping without a scratch, and be back in to do it in like 5 seconds again is not okay. Atleast Widow has to aim.
and the fact that he has too many fast-kill combos
