How is Roadhog doing in OW2?

I don’t play the guy but considering his kit and how his abilities haven’t really changed in the transition to ow2 I can imagine he doesn’t fit super well as a solo tank, but I don’t really know.

Is he actually able to keep up with other tanks without any really altruistic abilities? Is he fine?

Well,my brother is playing RH in the beta and is really stomping the crap outta people with him…And he’s no RH player.Believe that !!!
So I would go ahead and say he maybe OP’d
Cuz my brother is trash at the game

He seemed a bit overnerfed imo, but I imagine he’s hard to balance in 5v5 since he could easily become OP.

He’s bad because his kit is awful for the job.
Even without Ana being played you just get shot at.

The general consensus is that he’s one of if not the worst tank. I’m a tank main but I cannot stand hogs playstyle so I don’t touch the pig. He’s really overdue for a rework imo. He’s never been balanced. Always garbage or S tier, any hero like that obviously has core issues in their kit to where they can’t be balanced.

Wait what nerf? His ult can’t be cancelled he got 350 healing during take a breather cancelled and he has 700 hp he sucks cause solo tank but I don’t remember a nerf

He’s only received buffs?

I was referring to his OW1 live version

He’s good in low skill matches, easily taken care of the higher skill you go

Didn’t his damage get nerfed in 2 from 1?

Roadhog is pretty bad in OW2

If it wasn’t for Doomfist he’d be the worst Tank, in beta 1 he was arguebly the worst character

Hog’s damage in OW1 got nerfed from 7 to 6.6

Back in like 2016 it used to be 9

Back in the days of the magic hook through time and space

Everyone assumed the queen would essentially just be a better hog.
Ironically enough Hog is a pretty good counter against her from my experience lol

Looks like he was fine or even good in bronze-gold caliber lobbies. He weak beyond that unless you are countering specific heroes

Eh, for all Doom’s current problems, he’s still better than ball. Unless you’re just wanting a POTG boop.

That is to be expected, roadhog has always been the counter to hyper aggressive characterts, he is the ultimate poke tank. Poke is just not really as viable in the much faster pace OW2.
