Can we get a nerf to hammond, because his stalling is really unbearable.
I’m sure you’ve all been there, you are almost at the finish line so close to finishing the round but the hammond arrives, and he starts doing tricks and putting a shield on himself so it takes even more time to kill him. on top of that when he is in ball mode he has no head hitbox so you can’t kill him faster. He gets his ult really fast from bumping into your entire team and then he activates his ult on the point making it really annoying to stay alive and Stay on the point.
Meanwhile his entire team came back to life and they now fight you, and mei joins the fight and stalls even more, and tracer too.
you might say that i call for nerfs for mei and tracer at this point but i don’t.
Tracer while being agile and hard to hit, is a squishy with only 150hp while hammond has 600hp + additional shields for a couple of seconds from his ability.
Mei isn’t very agile but has a larger health pool then tracer and has her cryo freeze and wall to stall. While it has a big impact hammond has a larger health pool and he is the fastest hero in the game which allows him to get to the point a lot faster then mei.
Yeah I feel like this is more of a rant then anything but still I think its REALLY annoying for a hero to have such stalling capabilities.
I mean he is moving then in a circle which never changes. You can just track him and every ound he spins is the same, so the tracking basically repeats itself.
Also has now nearly every character some kind of CC - CC him and he will stop spinning like crazy.
It’s not that hard to kill a stalling hammond. So many heros can stop him momentum
just stand away and shoot him…or switch to sombra, cree, rat, hog and many many more that destroy him easy, spinning rat is easier to deal with then a non spinning one
He’s one of the hardest characters to get value out of in his role. It’s easy to play him as a fat dps or staller but much harder to play him as a viable tank.
Who cares if he adds something to the roster that tanks can use? Just… kill him?
Learn how to aim better, learn to counter with the numerous heroes that exist who can slow him down / counter him, learn how to predict where he’ll be instead of shooting where he’s currently at, etc.
If a Hammond is able to hold the point when four or more enemies are there, then that’s him outplaying you.
This. Or you dont have any counters to him. Usually when I get brave Hamtaro who wanna pull pro gamer move and stall forever they get stund and focus fired. Rarely they succeed to stall long enought for team to catch up.
