Roadhog’s hook has always been buggy (to some degree). It seems inconsistent when it breaks when they are objects around and when it doesn’t. Sometimes it feels like you have hook 1.0 return for a play and others it feels like hook 6.0. That’s not what I’m talking about though!
The hook is SERIOUSLY bugged as of the patch around 2 weeks ago. Harbleu has been noting this on stream, threads have been made on reddit. I can’t post links here but I would be happy to send you multiple videos. Check the current reddit thread on this as well. It wasn’t me, just another Hog main who noticed the same thing.
This is a serious issue. In the past couple weeks I’ve started playing a lot less hog (as a hog main) as a result of this. Harbleu has been complaining about this for the last couple weeks and said it just changed in a very recent patch. If you don’t fix this, competitive players will not use him in competition. PLEASE respond. The sooner you acknowledge this as an issue and look to resolve it, the easier it will be to track down was made it worse. If you keep waiting it will require a whole hook rework that is probably a year down the road and will result in Hog being basically unplayable until then!
