REBUFF JUNKRAT PLEASE
You nerfed his goats buff (damage) and now he cannot 1 shot 250HP targets. Junkrat has a very low pickrate in OWL, and has NEVER EVER been meta. Please buff him because he is not viable unless on a map like Temple of Anubis. He was one of the most fun characters in the game, but he has too many counters (Pharah, Echo, Hitscans) and it is very difficult to get value without his ultimate.
Be nice if they reverted the size of his grenades, but outside of that not too much you can change on him.
He’s a victim of map design and less barrier health leaving him as well as other slow targets vulnerable to long/mid-long range heroes.
He can do work at the choke and on attack can open a lane for your offense.
I think he is a solid pick that you have to be ready to switch off if certain heroes are played
But his downsides exist for a reason. When he was meta he output so much damage long range heroes, DM, or Zarya were your only options to stop him from spamming up the whole map.
Junkrat is fine. The best thing that could happen for Junk, and many other heroes, is for maps to be rebalanced. For example Havana simply shouldn’t exist in it’s current form due to how imbalanced it is.
As if one shotting isn’t already annoying to deal with, not to mention a majority of the heroes have 200 or lower health which Junkrat can 2-shot them already.
Junkrat has been more than fine for quite some time now.
Just the fact that he can easily one - shot combo 50% of the roster that are 200HP heroes already is problematic.
He would need serious compensation nerfs for him to receive any kind of buff and needless to say this is pretty redundant until the main design problems with his kit, such as the low skill - high reward spammy play style his kit encourages is finally fixed.
Junkrat’s fine though. My only gripe is that many other characters have strong boops that drastically lower their air strafe. Meanwhile, remote mine has next to no penalty to their movement when booped

This though would also be very nice on its own. Havana especially due to the amount of open sightlines it has. No map should allow snipers that much free real estate with little effort
