Day 23 of Junks trap damage being wrong

In the beta Junks trap was changed to be a slow. For some reason.

Patch notes:

Imgur

The hero is so neglected that the devs forgot to even add in the “compensation buff” of an extra 20 damage. That was 23 days ago and there have already been two patches since then. It’s still doing 80 damage.

Tells you everything you need to know about the state of Junk.

well he did get some new “singing” and cool voice lines. at least in the creative artistic design department they did well with that part

but yea gameplay wise that sounds like a big boo boo

Hahaha but he’s strong toast! Your overwatch told me so and I can’t develop brain cells to dodge this heroes slow projectiles…
devs bias on full display clear as day, no love for junkrat even though he’s the worst hero in the game rn funny game balance very fair!
Bet this thread gets ignored because 90% of the gold player base are thankful he’s terrible.

Yep. Easily tested in practice range.

Junk is just that neglected by the devs.

I’d rather they just replaced the ability or reverted it. I just found the situation funny.

This is just demeaning and disrespectful.
A bug is a bug.
Don’t be so stupid about it.

junk could rot, the game is supposed to evolve from lobbing grenades in chokes all day to an actual fps

I just want his projectile size back (full 3/3 instead of 2/3, the current size). Before I could predict people flying in the air and it was fun. After the nerf they made that impossible. Just revert it, there is no double tank now and even MORE, the ULT gain is reduced already by the tank class.

In Toasts defense, the changes, lack thereof when stated otherwise, or the complete overestimation in effectiveness when Junkrat has been modified or modified around, has been devastating to the character and anyone who mains him.

We cheered when he got self damage removed, we cheered when he finally wouldnt kill himself with his own riptire after Dva had immunity to hers for like a year?

But they continue to nerf him because " being stopped " for playing over agressively or not paying attention to their soroundings made ‘pro’ players feel bad.

Honestly I think it’s time to abandon ship now. Can’t even add a buff and some YouTubers are suffocating in their copium already. Maybe rework Junkrat into a hitscan, the devs will instantly give him the attention he needs.

Perhaps. It’s also accurate.

Do you honestly believe that if a damage value was wrong on a hero such as S76, Tracer, Genji etc it would be ignored or unnoticed for 2 patches?

Anyway. Day 13.

Bugs in beta phase. Beta not balanced. Beta game is not perfect. Oh nooo, the world is ending

Players giving feedback in a beta? Oh no!
