Revert the Roadhog rework

He is only tankier when he uses Take-A-Breather. An ability that only lasts 2 seconds, has over a 6 second cooldown, and he can be stunned out of. He also has no shield or armor to protect him like the other tanks.

I have to agree. I played him starting in Beta and people already forget that his E couldn’t be used while moving and that he could be damaged normally while using it. You had to land the hook+shot+melee to get the kill not counting Tracer (well early Zen too when he was 150HP).

He was very easy to burst down, much easier than Brig is today. He punished bad positioning, now he slaps it around a bit but he’s no real threat.

pretty much this, look at a d.va bomb every single tank is better against it than hog is, d.va can escape, winston can bubble or escape, orisa and rein have shields and zarya can bubble and take 0 damage

Winston is doing quite well right now, especially with the recent Mercy nerf which allows Winston to outdamage her heals. Meanwhile, Roadhog is still at the bottom.

8 seconds doesn’t even do the job since the hook bugs and breaks for literally no reason sometimes now, I just want them to give Roadhog a 15% attack increase :sleepy:

Hog can actually negate almost all the damage if timed correctly

Well that is true but my point is still correct

No please don’t revert to that broken hook.

But he does need a buff. I recently suggested this:

Yeah you’re right haha

I would like for his weapon to not be RNG and for him to be less of an ult charge. I agree though; his ult is not very good. It is like a Winston ult but without the extra health and without a leap. His ult does great damage up close, but it instantly pushing the enemy player out of range. This makes it very useless. And as you said, he can’t cancel it. If the enemy team focuses fire on Hog, he will die almost instantly.
