It’s always the tank. Every single Jetpack Cat ult is just throwing the tank off the map. Every single one.
That should be the most rewarding choice yes, every cat will try to get the tank.
But there’s no reason to do anything else with it. It has one purpose. It’s lame for everyone involved
I pulled a nano bladed genji with it and dumped him down the well, thats what you get weeb cringe
As the person who replied to your post just below you showed, Jetpack Cat’s ult has more uses than ‘tossing the tank off the map’.
Lots of tanks are going to be able to escape it: Dva, Winston, maybe Hazard or Ball, so no, it’s not going to always be the tank, it’s just that Domina is pretty weak to it. Also, not all maps even have death pits.
true, then you pull the enemy into your team
The cat did what Hanzo couldn’t do right lol
Are you guys having issues picking up your teammates? I only managed to do it once, lol, people just do not accept it. Tried to save my teammates multiple times, nothing. Tried to pick up people ulting to put them in the air, nothing, no one accepts it.
I mean it’s not that creative of an ult. You jump on someone and fly away. It’s the teammates you tether that allow for creativity. Although to be fair I did give their soldier an amazing PoTG. ![]()
Most of the time, there isn’t even an opportunity to throw someone off the map. The more default way to use the ult is to bring an enemy deep into your team to focus them.
Hey, I didn’t drag that Domina off the map!
…
I just dragged her into my team’s backline so they could finish her off-
I love how little counterplay it has too.
Because 1. unless you have mobility… you’re just dead. and 2. you are NOT killing that thing by the time you’re off the map or inside the enemy team.
I would add the ability to struggle to break out of the tether, and then specifically make it so the tank can break out faster if they struggle. Tanks really should resist all forms of CC, but this would still enable JP to drag Tanks off the stage. Players just have to be smarter about it.
And with that in mind, JP would be motivated to grab other problem characters instead.
Yea they should have to at least have to be near the environmental area already.
I’m watching tanks get dragged from first point eichenwalde, right at the chokepoint with the little overhead walkway all the way off the map by the mini on the side of first point.
It is ridiculous.
There are many creative ways to use Jetpack Cat’s ult, but when they showed Jetpack Cat’s ultimate in the showcase, they wanted to show she was the new Jeff of OW. The thing is, Jeff and Jetpack Cat have way better and more creative ways to use their ult than dragging people off ledges. Sometimes that’s less impactful and might get you killed for doing that. Most people who play OW, if they haven’t played another game with a hero like that, they may not know, but I’ve played games with heroes like that, games that don’t have falls. The most consistent way to get the kill is to kidnap your target and pull them to your team, and everyone gets ult charge rather than just you, and you have less chance of dying, because your teammates can pour resources into you to keep you alive on the way over. If you look up Batrider from Dota 2, his ultimate is this, and that’s the main application of it. If the enemy team wants to jump in and save, they are typically being set up to get hit with a wombo combo as your team’s counter measure. The other thing you can do, is if there are overhangs that Jetpack Cat can hide up in, she can kidnap and enemy, and fly straight up so the cat is not visible to the enemy team, but the target is being suspended mid air, an easy target if your team has snipers, and your target can be killed faster than simply dragging and pulling them and then your team looking at them. This also baits the enemy team harder into the idea they can save their ally, as they are closer, and when they have to come around the coner and look up around the overhang to save their teammate by shooting you, they’ll be turning their head away from your teammates, setting them up for some sneaky surprises. You can use your target as a carrot on a string for max value. Pulling a single person off the ledge is low level tactics.
when you pick someone up from your ult, there is no way to automatically detach the person you have on your tether? you just have to wait til the 3 or 4 seconds expire?
seems like you should be able to detach, because in that 4 seconds while you have the target, they can shoot you can kill you before you get them to the edge of a cliff or to your back line.
You press the ultimate button again to drop them
I remember the days with Echo was new and every Echo player Duplicated one of the Tanks and then went to town on the enemy team.
Good stuff, that “perception” thing.
My current strategy is picking up the Tank and pulling them in a random direction, like behind a wall or structure, just to disrupt them. Seems to work decently.
