Just wanna know your opinions.
I think Hanzo has this potential on first place. When hitting crits, only enemy tank is needed more than 1 shot.
Second place is Widow, cuz same thing.
I dont say he is op! Just you know, when bad fight happens, he is there on point - and magic happens.
I have hard carried my teams several times with Kiriko and Mercy. Do they count?
No hero can carry on their own. It’s just not feasible. Mathematically.
Obviously snipers are the closest because of the one shot potential. That being said, there are a lot of options to mitigate that players impact regardless. My sistah spice and I were playing against some max range XIM who was likely boosting the account (no hours on Widow, lighting up the entire lobby, coming EXTREMELY close to genuinely solo carrying). She went Winston to force his pockets to peel for him and I went Mei to stall cart. The rest of his team was UNBELIEVABLY bad, very likely because of his sky high MMR so it placed dead weight to compensate.
It is just a logistical nightmare to solo carry in this game. It rarely happens even in unranked to GM playthroughs.
I wonder if you could carry as hog, because of his massive damage, high health, and the fact that he can heal himself
I dont mean carry whole game, but as described later. Everyone of us had a game, where team took a bad fight, you stay alone on the point and somehow just magic happend. I had it almost as Hanzo, 3 clean headshots helped us a lot and I left with 55hp.
Hog is also very capable. Those situations are very satisfying… but not so for enemy team
I may be biased but I can see Reaper as one of the few DPS heroes that can reliably hold his ground 1v1ing tanks at a controlled area. More often than not, tanks have decent damage and the damage reduction/hp pool to 1v1 any character outside their role in a contested space.
Reaper is the one of them that can hold his ground because of his high damage and sustain and wraith.
Agree with that. In a controlled area is key, as soon as ranged heroes start paying attention to reaper, its ggs.
Reaper also cant 1vs1 every tank matchup. Hog is basically a health battery for reap, but other tanks like JQ are much harder to leech health from. Dva and Sig can also cut off his sustain. Even if its only for 2-3 seconds, thats enough to either kill reaper or force out wraith. In which case reap is very likely to do die once wraith finishes.
Reap is underrated and not strong in the meta, but I agree he fits the bill in terms of OP’s topic. In the right areas against the right comps
I think genji mains believe they can solo carry though for 7 years straight they solo blade into enemy team and regroup at spawn.
I keep asking them why they say they have team wiped before but just missed it this time only.
I believe them even if i haven’t witnessed they sound confident.
You can solo carry on any hero, but you need to be 2-3 ranks above the lobby.
In ow1 he could not anymore.
In ow1 he was like babayaga coming fromtunnels grabbing people and making them vanish
For sure! I definitely agree there are matchups that Reaper can’t reliably win the 1v1 but that’s a good reason. He shouldn’t harass every tank that’ll be frustrating.
I will say however he doesn’t need to kill to win the contested space. His damage spam can reliably force pressure for the tank to use important cooldowns at inopportune times in a team fight.
Reaper is the equivalent of skeletor from Hitman no one takes him seriously other than himself.
Suddenly now I want a Skeletor Reaper skin.
Life Weaver, no one can carry the enemy quite like he consistently does with terrible grips.
Dps Moira, Lucio. But realistically-- no one
Tracer exists so that’s not true
Any hero can carry on their own, but the more likely suspects are going to be either Tanks or DPS. Especially like Genji or Soldier76 who can literally wipe entire teams if they’re caught off guard.
Kirko, Bap, Ana, and (maybe) Illari,
