Meanwhile, people are standing still, and do not choose other routes to flank to avoid a choke, do not switch to counters (hello Pharah/Widow/anyone with range).
And to top it all off, it is the super mobile character complaining the most. You can pretty much avoid anything and now you are getting for once countered?

Theoretically heās actually the hardest hero to hit direct hits with at long range. He has slow projectiles that also arc.
Junkrat is harder than Widow. I said it. I am right. I will not take questions.

Heās not no-skill. Itās just that most of his kills are accidental. Yeah, heās easily counterable, but Iāve never been like āWow, Junk really did well and totally earned that kill on purposeā. Easy to see why heās frustrating to play against, especially if your teammates wonāt swap to counter him.

Iāll contest that Junkrat takes skill to learn, doesnāt mean heās not the hero whose legs I want to break the most from his antics.

I wouldnt even say easy to play. Everyone focuses on the bs random long range kills, and conveniently forgets junkrat hitting nothing for long stretches before and after that instance.

OK Iāll construct an imaginary lobby of first-time OW players with no FPS experience. One team gets Moira, Mercy, Junkrat, Torbjorn, and Reinhardt. The other team gets Widow, Tracer, Ana, Zen and Doomfist.
If you tell me you donāt automatically know who wins youāre lying to me.
If you pretend this doesnāt mean team one are on lower-skill heroes youāre lying to yourself.

The team with the hitscans, unless these first timers have never played an fps before, then nobody wins.

what can you expect from the ow community? If they are going to invent all kinds of excuses for not learning to play or counterpick, they are going to come to the forum and cry in such a way until they kill a hero, step with brig, Moira, roadhog, symmetra in their time, the only ones heroes that are saved from that are the same dps as always like genji or tracer that can oneshot you and it will be your fault and if by chance they get a nerf they take away 2 damage, on the other hand if itās junkrat or some other hero - 50% to a skill or make him more useless than Brigitte
Those who call Junkrat a āno-skill heroā, truly have no skill whatsoeverā¦

pretty much the only hero that can get kills consistently without ever seeing you. Even torb/sym turrets have to have los so you can kill them. Only other thing I can think of is moira orb (50 dps CD ability) and Dva bomb (an ult thatās very slow and easy to dodge).
Junk you just spam. Doesnt take any skill. There are things you can do with him that take skill, but 90% of the time you can get by without doing that

20 charactersss
Lol bro, Iām sorry but junk is cheap. Cheaper than hanzo back when he had actual logs in the first days of overwatch. Junk is so forgiving he can actually deal with pharah all on his own so not even his counters can counter him. The only reliable way to actually kill junk right now is to snipe him with widow or melt him with sojourn. The second he closes the gap though you are dead. Junk is a better reaper than reaper lmao!

Heās a character that kills you before the warning gasp can go off. Any characters that do that suck.

Junkrat is low skill floor with a surprisingly high skill ceiling. Kind of a sign of a well designed hero, strangely enough.
If youāre dying regularly to a Junkrat, youāre either being outplayed, or need to upgrade your observation game.
