feels like when i learn them a little i forget them how to do em next day…its like you must be so precious with timing and usually i just waste cooldown when trying them…am i okay with just bouncing from objects with space and not bothering with diagonals?
Yes it’s a useful piece of tech that can secure kills and help you reposition

it feels like i must train them everyday many hours to get it muscle memory and its so frustrating when u fail 9/10 of times and they work bit differently in different spots as well…wondering if its worth of time.
The more you practise in custom games and in real games the easier it becomes, It becomes second nature once you’ve done it enough. Having the knowledge to know which objects you can diag off is extremely useful. Diags are important because it saves you using 2 of your abilities, if I can use rocket punch to get to highground where a widow is sitting on then I can attack her with slam uppercut (making it easier to secure the kill). Diags are also useful for catching players by surprise, most players have no idea what doomfist can do in terms of tech, being a punch bot is usually more efficient but being able to implement tech like diags can easily secure you kills that you wouldn’t be getting without the rollout. What Sr do you usually play doomfist in?

yeah it sucks to use ur slam/uppercut or both just to get high ground and thats why im trying but u need like 90% success rate with diags or just waste of punch cooldown…it gives so big pressure in real match and feels just tempting use ur cooldowns to get high ground 
but i know its possible do them even when u are drunk when its muscle memory but it sure takes time…

Yep just keep practicing or watch some diag videos on YouTube, spending hours in custom games practising tech on all the maps will really help you improve.
oh and forget mention im around 2500 SR atm if it changes anything.
I recommend you at least learnt he Diagonal punch on Temple of Anubis.
Once you learn that one, you’ll see how easy it really is.
My problem with doom fist is that my eyes naturally go to the giant arm on the right half of the screen…especially since the crosshair disappears when charging
So I’m constantly missing people to the left…
keep grinding the muscle memory. once you do that, it will be a piece of cake from then on
It doesn’t really change anything in terms of tech, just try not to panic when attempting the diag in game.
Yes it’ll help you be even more unpredictable as Doomfist. All of his tech moves are essential to playing him.
