u activate slam. while flying through air at your target you hold down your primary FIRE. once you land on said target, immediately smash your uppercut… you have officially animation cancelled one shot a sqishy while having an escape and CC and armor… good luck rinsing and repeating.
I was so confused by this cause I switched inputs for uppercut and slam
And than someone switches to Mccree or Sombra and kills Doom every time he jumps in … happy ending.

there u go… i honeslty dont play doomfist much so i couldnt even think of the move off my dome just my bind for it, but a lot of people dont know about these animation cancels making them effectively a bug cause they arent even intuitive.
thats why doom sits in a dark alley and waits to get free kills on healerss, but he knows he can do that and get rewarded for not playing with team because hes gonna get a free kill with zero contest or damage… doom only gets punished if he gets too arrogant.

Most of the time Doom is only oppressive because people refuse to switch to counters. Sombra and Mccree are hard counters to him and Orisa and Moira are strong against him too. It’s the same when you have a Doom player who is hard countered but refuses to switch to something else and does nothing more than feeding the entire game.

you actually need to land a headshot or two more body shots
Doom’s head hitbox is covered by his arm when slamming

Slam and uppercut alone will deal up to 175 damage…
You don’t need a headshot.

so if u get the full slam its 125 then 66 with the gun and 50 with the rocket punch, so it’s a total of 241 damage? pretty its not consistent with the slame and most of the time ull shoot up again a couple of times but i guess you were right
I love this idealistic nonsense.
If this actually happened you wouldn’t have the complains about Doomfist that exist.
Now if only everyone played these characters and were willing to swap to them.
If only they were as good at countering him as you imply

Sombra is to this date not a hard counter to him. If she would be:
- Doomfist’s winrate being on the Top 5 nearly all ranks,
- Sombra being lowest winrate nearly every rank.
- Doomfist being Top 1 in GM
- Sombra being Top 31 in GM
wouldn’t be a thing

Yeah, Sombra just punishes the really bad Doomfist players.
He has the tools to outplay her. He can dispose of her just as easily as he can dispose of Zen. Don’t forget, she has no mobility to stay engaged with the Doomfist unless she throws Translocator mid fight, which is a terrible idea.
She deals less damage than Zen, she has just as much health as Zen, and she has a casting time on hack that still allows Doomfist to slam her, which is an unbelievably easy ability to land. And chains into a guaranteed kill unless translocated.
Unstealthing anywhere near the Doomfist will prompt him to line up a rocket punch, forcing a Translocation.

This, the best doomfist I’ve seen hide/flank and dip out after the kill.
There are very few Sombra players and not so many Mccree mains because DPS are very lazy to swap. Mei is not bad against Doom, but not as good as the other two. If you have hero X meta learn to play one or two of his counters.
You don’t even need to be insanely good. I am not a great Mccree or Soldier, but i can counter Phara with them. But you have to play some hours on that hero to get the basics.
What ****ty argument is this? Just because hero A has a higher winrate than hero B doesn’t mean hero B can’t counter hero A. Isn’t it possible that Doom has such a high winrate because there are so few people playing his counter?
I eat almost every Doom … sure they got a lucky strike here and there or teams are just so insanely uneven that you are constantly in a 1v3 and you can’t win that match, but i would say 9 out of 10 times Doom is nothing more than an ult charger.

No it isn’t. It shows that players refuse to switch and Doom hits so hard because he is good in many situations and weak in only a few.
I have it so often that the enemy Doom is flaming me Sombra is OP because he was non stop dieing the entire match because he refused to switch.
