check your facts, it does have falloff. Shoot it, it’s not that fast. Slower than nanoblade genji that you can’t even block with barriers

Yup lets nerf a hero with less than 0.4 % pickrate.

It does have falloff.

Put mines on 80 flat damage each then we can lower charge rate. Also revert grenade changes.

It does have damage fall off; 600 damage is only when you get a target in the very centre of the blast radius.

Why do I still get instantly killed from full when on the very edge of the radius then?

Probably because you don’t have 600 hp. Thought of that?

If im on the edge the damage should be absolutely miniscule, we are talking 100 max.

I’ve seen it do I think around 160 damage minimum. Haven’t tested it myself though, so I have no idea what the lowest it can actually be is. I’m betting it would be around 120.

Just shoot it 4head loool

You cant shoot it when its climbing up walls and flying through the air. All while there a widow shooting at you and a brig stunning someone, while a doomfist smashes ana in the back of your team

Let’s see… um… yep, been 37 minutes since a riptire complaint thread. You’re late.
You can literally hear it coming, shoot it down, and junkrat can also be killed in the process without knowing it. Man, what an insane ult!

Cant hear crap :poop:, you can hear when it actuvates but once its off theres no 360’ sound effects to tell ypu which specific direction, all you hear is a generic exhaust sound.

What should happen is when junkrat is killed his tire explodes wherever it is. This gives it an actual counter other than just shoot it lol but also stops him from just using it point blank on people.

There is fall-off.

15

100 sounds right, but you have to be right on the edge of it

Tire is fine. They already decreased it’s movement speed. Look around, open your eyes, listen for it; and shoot it.

If you can’t, play more Junkenstein. Or you’re just generally in a bad spot and the tire is like a magnet to you.

Not enough of fall off then, it shouldnt be landing in the middle of junkertown and hitting someone in dorado.

18

For a bomb in Junkertown to hit someone in Dorado in the explosion radius, it would need to be a really powerful bomb. And I’m not even talking nuclear. I’m talking antimatter.

Come on, seriously… do you get to kill Doomfist, or Dva, does Hanzo’s dragon vanish if he gets hit? Does the new Lava vanish when you kill Torb? Bottom line, it’s not that powerful of an ult. You’re just mad cause you’ve been hit by them… It’s an Ult, it’s supposed to destroy people, just like everyone else’s.

Also while we are nerfing junkrat, hanzo and doomfist can be gutted as well. I remember back in the day, the golden age lets call it, when you actually had to aim on a hero to do good.

Now jts all just spam and 1 shots everywhere. I Remember when everyone said that it was stupid that unless you didnt want roadhog to kill you you had to stay behind a shield. And how that was stupid as it meant you couldnt walk past your tank. Now roadhog is the least of your worries with being 1 shot evey .5 seconds. That shield that used to last days is destroyed in 10 seconds of the match.
