You’ll have less problems with Doomfist once you get better at the game.

Yes, let’s nerf one of the hardest characters in the game to use properly without dying. (sarcasm)

I’ll have less problems when I have any options when he uses any of his abilities on me.

I’ll have less problems when his uppercut isn’t able to get effortless environmental kills because it takes away all air control.

I wish Lucio could do that! I boop you therefore you’re off the stage. It doesn’t work like that for Lucio and it shouldn’t work like that for Doomfist.

nerf sombrera she can go incat see her

Well thought out and constructive, with these demands Blizzard simply has to abide now.

On a related topic these nerfs won’t stop me from destroying all of you (points in everyone’s general direction).

I doubt that. Doomfist will be easier to deal with when he doesn’t have an auto-combo.

You among many others make it seem like it was a combo everyone can do. Weather you want to admit it or not, Doomfist requires a lot of practice to get excellent results. A large portion of people wanting these nerfs to him only do so because they see him in every match, similar to how when everyone saw Hanzo and they wanted nerfs. He wasn’t seen as often, and people stopped complaining.

Don’t mistake what I’m saying for dismissing your opinion, however, clearly a majority felt this was necessary, and I’ll gladly take these nerfs to the momentum nerf they went with previously.

To be honest, being pushed by a blast of air isn’t the same as being pushed by a big giant fist that just punched you in the jaw so hard that it launches you 10 feet into the air.

You’re right, it isn’t, and that’s really what makes Doomfist feel more oppressive than others.
When you’re booped by Lucio, you have control over your movement, granted it’s not much, but it’s there and can sometimes make the difference between surviving and falling off a ledge.
With Doomfist however, if he uppercuts you, you have no movement whatsoever, so with these changes it’s going to feel more in line with being booped by Lucio, and therefore make the game feel more consistent.

In terms of nerfs, yeah this is a nerf, but most Doomfist palyers (myself included) would typically just Rocket Punch after a Rising Uppercut anyway for good measure, to guarantee that kill.

I am crap with DPS and I am crap with Doomfist.
I can do his auto-combo.

Please don’t make it seem like it’s this hard thing. The arc is the same every time.

Yeah, the blast of sound would probably rip you to shreds before sending you back.

Even so, realism arguments are void since Hammond and Winston are in the game.

It is and I believe you’re downplaying your own skill if you don’t think it’s difficult. Even in such cases where you secure a kill, those that are not familiar with the hero will burn all of their abilities to get that one kill. They’re left to the mercy of the enemy team since he’s in the backline, he gets killed, it’s 1 for 1, which overall didn’t affect the game.

If I was trying to be realistic then I would have said that Lucio’s weapon wouldn’t do anything to you while Doomfist would kill you instantly.

I think you underestimate the power of sound-waves.
You were evoking realism in your previous post, it’s okay to admit it.

It’s free! How can you not see that?
The cooldown on his punch is so low that he can punch in, do his auto-combo, and then punch out easily. I’ve seen it many times.

Unless they are on attack where I have to walk back a longer distance and he has several movement abilities on low cooldown.

Patience, it will come with the event.

High skill no reward is the way to go, according to the comunity.

In my ranked play experience it’s far from free (high Platinum/Diamond). Teams are decently organized, and most times saving their CC for my initiation. I have no intention to downplay your rank, wherever you’re at, I’m just giving mine so you can hopefully see where I’m coming from.
