Junkrat is the only hero who can oneshot half the heroes in a second without any skill whatsoever. His grenade plus mine combo is so anoying and I personaly think that something need to be done about it. He need to be changed in a way so that he cannot spam as much or that his damage gets nerfed.

Here is an idea, not get hit by them

He has to land a nade which is one of the most inconsistent primary fires and use a CD. His one shot is one of the least problematic ones in the game. If you nerf his one shot, you have to buff his primary fire (faster speed or bigger size) or something else

Which hero are you playing as? Almost every hero still has a way to outplay him at close range, even at a disadvantage
And why are you stuck in a room with him? That’s the one area he is supposed to thrive at

getting stuck in a room with a Junk is the fault of the player for letting that happen.
Junkrat is a hero who takes advantage of the enemies bad awareness and game sense

Lots of heroes can one-shot with actually one shot, unlike junkrat.

this has to be a joke how could you diss my best mate.
Junkrat is not OP. He is barely played in the meta and is very niche and is mainly used in comps just to break shields in maps like Temple and other maps with tight chokes. Junkrat is mostly just a very niche character and playing him most of the times can be seen as a throw.
Many heroes can one shot heroes. There is some skill required to become accurate and consistent with the one shot combo on Junk. I am not saying that it is super difficult but it does take some time to perfect. It is also pretty difficult to guarantee some kills because of the nerf that he got around last year where they took away some damage from his primary fire.
His damage shouldn’t get nerfed because that will render him useless and ineffective. The spamming part is just what he is used for. He is only used for spamming either shields or chokes, that is the only use he has in this meta.

If you know what I mean.
Where have I heard something like this before…
Even Reaper is dangerous face to face, is he dangerous like Junkrat? Nope because without aim Reaper is useless, even a Junkrat vs Reaper is a 50/50 duel, the problem are not the grenades but the mines instead, thats a 120 of damage free if of course not avoided

He’s not the only one who can 1 shot, but he is amongst the few who require 0 skill (similar to Hanzo)
For some reason these 2 are protected by the forums and considered underpowered by some just because they are projectile but hitscans are considered OP and hated too

Because hitscan IS OP?
Junkrat is obnoxious but he’s not OP, he’s balanced and has been since the last round of changes he got.
