Flying all over the place as tank. The amount junk boops tanks now is just silly. Throw in another booper like ball or doom or lucio and the game becomes unplayable fun-wise. Junk is the main problem though and is now in more than 60% of my games.
Just started throwing now instead of getting motion sick from all the booping.
He throws everyones aim off including their own teams, often saves enemy players from elimination and you hear them say āIām just having funā at the expense of winning the game.
Iāve been seeing him a ton in my QuickPlay games and couldnāt figure out why. Maybe this is why. Heās been very common in QuickPlay since the mid-season patch.
I installed a couple of hours ago for the weekend and I donāt think Iāve played more than 2 games that didnāt include junk. Heās ok if his play time is limited, but heās a bit much when heās in this many games.
The issue isnt counterplay for me. The issue is that getting bounced like crazy when I play rein just gets more nauseating than in ow1 at times. Its not just junkrat- junk rat just has booping per every grenade is all. The solution would be to increase boop resistance on certain tanks (hint hint the steadfast passive) so that it makes sense gameplay loopwise
Heās been better since the 225 hp changes. He got his kill combo back. The boop helps. Kind of. Muscle memory for the air shot was messed with a little bit.
Or just let your hitscan delete him while they stand behind Reind barrier.
Or pick Dva and DM his mines while batter ramming him with some missiles and a boop.
Let the Widow, Pharah, or Echo take the shot.
You donāt need Rein to be the killing blow.
Let Junkrat have some meaning and agency in the game.
As I said before majority of the DPS roster can just do his job better. Pharah has the superior boop and she can move faster where you wonāt see it coming.
Mine you can see coming unless Junk puts it in a cute hiding spot with the trap.
I donāt hate hitscan other than Widow and Sombra, but not because they are hitscan but rather they are just unfun and unhealthy for the game.
The heroes I dislike are
ana
sombra
widow
mauga
and I did dislike DVa but she seems better to play against now, and currently junk is in way too many games considering his boop is incredibly annoying to play against and how low skill and cheesy he is, but he will be fine once he is in less games again.
I like playing as Queen, but currently she has too much self-sustain. She is ok to play against but gets frustrating. I donāt dislike her but she does need some adjustments.
Also, have to say it as a huge Junkrat main,Junkrat does need kind-of a powershift. Make spam more difficult. I donāt think the nades need to be quite as big if we can barely get the combo again.
