Sure wish there was a doomfist counter

He’s beenannoying lately…I think we need a decent counter to keep him in check

What’s that? There are counters to him? What’s that? They’ve all gotten pushed out of the Meta and/or Nerfed into trash?

Huh. Who would’ve thought; guess I’ll just get one shot while behind my reinhardt’s shield trying to avoid widowmaker or hanzo’s spam.

Mei, Pharah, and Sombra: Am I joke to you?

People will just say go McCree or Sombra etc. It’s a joke really. We all know how to counter Doomfist and those counters really do nothing to the guy.

He should have been balanced before 2-2-2 happened but nope. Blizzard put that hard work towards Brigitte. Doomfist also needed something. But rework? Is that the solution? How do you fix someone who’s a bad design for this game?

Well we have sombra. Oh wait. She was nerfed into Dumpster tier. Nevermind.

Torb was somewhat decent against him until they nerfed his right click…

Sombra was straight up a counter until they nerfed her as well…

Bastion is good against him, but everything else is good against him

McCree doesn’t have the burst to melt the shields he gains…

Junkrats nades just phase through him thanks to grenade size nerf…

Hogs low damage can never finish off Doom…

Yea, most of his counters suck.

I love the Doomfist mains who are all like: “just flashbang him”.

Cleary they have never played McCree. Either that or they can’t do basic arithmetic. Unless the Doomfist is complete trash and can’t land any of his very easy abilities (especially slam, basically the start of every free kill combo), there is literally no mathematical way for a McCree to confirm the kill. Neither FTH or continual headshots will counter the doom.

Also love the “just dodge his abilities” argument. Yeah, I did, except your ping is at 120 and Doomfist is favour the shooter now, so you killed me around a wall.

It’s disgusting the amount of denial that Doomfist mains are in right now. I love Mei but at least I have the good sense to recognize she needs to be tuned down right now.

Soldier was able to counter him but he got powercreeped by the snipers and barrier meta makes him even worse off. There’s no point in playing him over Widow or Hanzo

Soldier was never a counter to DF lol its the other way around

Yes, she is. It would be safer to just ignore doomfist on good dps than trying to counter him with sombra

As a Doomfist player, here’s my tip…

Doomfist is more powerful than most other DPS heroes when not focused.

Doomfist is less powerful than most other DPS heroes when he is focused.

Also reserve your best CC CDs for when he dives.

this is why we need to bring back more than one of each hero, then you can have a orisa in the back aswell

If only we had a Mexican hacker and a Chinese cryo freeze scientist to counter Doomfist… Oh well :thinking:

Honestly, Sombra is not good right now. I can’t justify using her even if it’s to counter the Doomfist.

Mei has been my go-to for him lately since she is also not useless 99% of the time on top of countering him lol

Nerfed =/= unusable.

I get the feeling you’re not even trying with excuses like that
