Doomfist got 3 nerfs

Power block to 80%, no slow on slam and another nerf disguised as a “bug fix”
“Fixed a bug where dooms powerblock could reduce damage done by bastions sticky grenade and echos sticky bombs”
0 compensation nerfs to account for any of these three nerfs…
How are the devs this bad at balancing it genuinely baffles me how anyone can defend the balance team in 2022. They keep messing up over and over again and some of you defend them…
Starting to hope they all get fired, I genuinely believe the balance team needs a revamp.

Yeah, the doom nerfs were… weird.

When I heard the devs say they were nerfing him by removing the slow in ML7 and SVB’s stream, I though “Oh, maybe they’ll buff powerblock to even out his kit and make him a bit tankier”.

Then they nerfed it…

Also - the Rein nerf, when he’s seen much less playtime in OWL than other tanks.
But Zarya is unchanged…?

It feels like a very long time since the balance team put out an actually good balance patch :sob:

I thought they’d give him some extra damage on slam or rocket punch since removing the slow directly impacts his ability to get kills but nope!

doomfist is still good but requires more thought to play
no character should have a free stun, slow, mobility, small hitbox and shield regen all in one
What they did to Sym tho… is bs (especially cos belford said meaty changes but its 4 buffs with a dozen of nerfs)

I literally just died from a final blow melee in Power Block and I just…stared at my screen and sighed. WHAT DOES THIS ABILITY DO!? My gauntlet doesn’t feel stronger, I’m not mobile while using it, and I just DIE because its garbage at tanking damage and doesn’t prevent ANY abilities from doing full effect

Funny rework! So happy they butchered my favourite hero and continue to nerf him when he’s not over-performing.

Balance team is laughable. I assure you once MS is in, that team is getting cleared out.

I hope so, they’re so incompetent it hurts my brain.

Have you played the new beta or are you just guessing?

I did and doomfist has been in every single game so far after the Queen, especially on maps like dorado A and B where hes sleeper.

Don’t even bother responding, I’ve never seen him have a good take in his life.

the doom main is not happy with the balance team balancing his favorite hero
get real

You constantly produce terrible takes on the forums whilst being incredibly biased towards mccree…

But its okay for a hero to have a speed boost for their team, be able to buffer health to their team 100 hp at any moment, which acts kind of like a zarya bubble to save you from lethal burst damage without needed to aim, affect your ability to be healed like Ana and bleed you out over time like Ashe, have a lesser hook like hog on a similar cooldown all while having an EVEN SMALLER hitbox and only 25 HP less that she can boost 200 with her shout ability? That’s what a hero can have all in one but Doomfist can’t have 2 CCs in his kit anymore?

No because gold players like nerf mercy will cry :joy:

Seriously what a garbage take, even trying to be unbiased as a doomfist player.
