Junkrat PTR Change In A Nutshell

Developer Comments: These changes are aimed at lowering some of the most frustrating parts about playing against Junkrat. Decreasing the Frag Launcher’s projectile size means he will have to aim a bit more carefully to land powerful direct hits and slowing the RIP-Tire’s movement speed gives his opponents slightly more time to destroy it before it detonates.

• Doesnt Reduce Spam, Encourages It

---

• Makes already dificult direct hits harder

---

• Is not compensated for with a velocity increase

Explain why this was a logical change.

1. spam is less effective so how does it encourage it? The grenades are smaller and easier to avoid

2. Yes it is more difficult to hit this is intended

3. It is a nerf no compensation is needed if so what is the point of the nerf?

You just don’t like that he is nerfed no need to act like it makes no sense. With this nerf landing direct hits is more important than ever for junkrat. Get to practicing
