Doomfist has too much impact for how easy he is. Change my mind

Doomfist’s methods of securing kills feel undeniably cheap. His pick/win rates are higher than ever. Even world cup pros admit they abuse him. Even if Doomfist trades one for one, his team still gain the advantage because he generally gets back to the fight quicker than most heroes thanks to his hyper mobility.

Doomfist is picked majority of the time now because running Tracer or Genji into Brigitte is a risk. Dooms kit has far more options to out play an enemy Brigitte.

As for Dooms ability to go in and get kills for free is simply a different change of pace. Genji has to poke down with Shruikens before being able to dash and secure a safe escape where as Tracer has to use her movement wisely to dodge lethal cooldowns. Doomfist simply plays faster than those two heros. His ability to get in close and get out is his kit, the fact he has to get in close is his achilles heel.

Doomfist is not overtuned. He is only seeing play because of the shift in meta, it took over a year since launch for his appearance in over 50% GM games

Any hero takes all of an hour to learn. I REALLY dont understand this easyheroes vs. Hardheroes argument

Doomfist actually has a really high skill cap. The problem with doomfist isn’t how “easy” he is to play, it’s the fact that his kit leaves little to no counter play.

He’s cheap but he isn’t easy. It’s like, the entire matchup depends on him messing up so that you don’t die, and he often exploits bugs. In this way, it’s extremely cheap, because the matchup is like 99% reliant on him moreso than anything you do. But it’s still not easy to do those things, if that makes sense.
Still think he needs a rework tho.

Does remaking the exact same thread constitute spamming?

In any case cherry picking random plays where youve done well doesnt proved anything. At this point youve put so much time into tryna make him look bad you might aswell and main him tbh

Haven’t cherry picked anything mate. Those videos are the entirety of my Doomfist play this season.

From what I can see you have over 50 hours but nah anyone can pick him up and play and get way too much impact. Its almost like playing a hero for 50 hours makes you better at them

Ikr?

Change your mind…

Nah, ill rather waste my time somewhere else, all this “Change my mind” threads are useless and are only looking for conflict, the OP wont change his mind regardless of what we say, so no.

I don’t play enough Doomfist to know for myself, but if I were to nerf him, I would either:

  1. Make him a little slower. He moves really fast, and is impossible to avoid most the time

  2. Make his gun do less damage. His abilities already do so much, and his shotgun is actually insane if you land your shots. I feel like its purpose should be to finish off low HP targets, but I’ve been two-shot by his gun alone multiple times.

And even so. First clip you finished with silver elims and bronze damage. So? Youre one of the dps. You should always be getting gold, silver elims. And gold or silver damage. Unless of course you play a hero like Doomfist or widow and do less damage than normal dps.

You played. Thats it. Nothing outstanding nothing throw level. You finished where you should have but no massively carrying.

He is in no way easy.

I absolutely hate the hero. But he is not easy. And a couple clips isn’t proving anything.

You don’t seriously believe that gold medals = carry?

He already have a huge hitbox, and making slower would HEAVILY hurt him.

He has 4 shots… and he cant even reload them

They already made his gun do less damage

You’re missing the point with your well worsed post. He killed me. And I didn’t like it

You didnt carry playwise either lol. You just played. And actually yeah medals are a good indicator of carrying. Someone whos carrying will walk away with 4 golds and potg especially if their dps. Tanks and healers not as much since those jobs are more passive then killing but a carrying dps is the mccree who traps heads every second of the genji who has blade every fight and gets a 4 man average. You didnt carry. You played
