Why do people hate Doom?

His winrate doesnt mean anything if he has a low pickrate. His low pickrate but insane wr is saying that he is picked in his niche, and he does very well in his niche. Is pharah OP? Is symm OP?

Meh this excuse works for heroes who are actually niche or at the bottom like the ones you mentioned: Phrah, Sym, Mei, Bastion, etc.

But DF is not there lol
His pickrate is more than double or quadruple the pickrate of some of the aforementioned heroes WHILE also they have a much lower winrate than DF…

1.16% pr isn’t that good. And as I said, he does great in his niche. Just because he isn’t bottom of the barrel doesn’t mean he isn’t underpowered. It isn’t hard to be warmer than ice.

And how is 1.16% not niche???

I agree with what you said, but there’s 100% genuine occasional sound bugs . I’ve had it confirmed in game from multiple people, on multiple occasions. Died to punches that produced no sound etc. And look, it’s not something that happens super often, but when it does happen you’re just like “sigh… There was SOOO much I could have done there to stop that from happening :/”

My only big grievance with doomfist is due to zarya mostly. There’s very little you can do to his slam uppercut combo without having multiple teammates attempt to burst him down. It’s not necessarily his fault, but out of all the characters that do synergise with bubbles well, he’s by far the most annoying.

Nowadays hes not hated for helping win games, he’s more hated because less experienced can throw more easily with him, with a mccree in almost every game doom has no chance to compete.

Pharah is also considered a noob stomper and a trash pick, but she has an even higher winrate than Doomfist, but go off I guess.

Doomfist past a certain elo goes from noob stomper to a wincon that eats up the teams resources. His niche is in specific Brig and Zarya comps, that’s why he has a low pickrate but a high winrate, like other niche heroes.

But what do I know, you clearly looked at Overbuff stats for 5 seconds and therefore know every in and out of this game

Actual classic lmao.

Great scenario! A game where NOBODY gets to play WHAT THEY WANT! I don’t understand why everyone hates Doomfist! /s

Most people want to play Overwatch as a team-based objective-oriented FPS. Far fewer of them want to play Doomfist Babysitting Simulator.

Nope.

As a Doomfist player, he’s annoying to counter if your team doesn’t run a cc. If your team does then the Doom usually just throws the game unless he’s really good.

(i wish i was good)

Firs off you were the one who compared DF with those heroes. So… I simply pointed out the obvious.

It is when you have 17 DPS heroes… If you check DF is either middle of the pack or a little bit above or below that depending the rank.

In masters and GM pharah has a much lower pickrate and a significantly lower winrate as well. What do you mean she has a higher one?

I use these two ranks because Blizz only care for those anyway…

Because thier hero choice doesn’t counter him well.

Bastion and/or Sombra are the better choices.

But NOOOOoooOOO…play Mcree :skull_and_crossbones:

Oh look guys, someone with a half hour of experience on doom and a less than 1 average elim per life telling us how forgiving anything about the hero is :man_facepalming:

People have to realize that middle of the pack in this game means garbage.

I just hate doom cause he’s annoying

Nothing is more infuriating that a Doomfist being bubbled.

No one likes having an immediate reminder that positioning and awareness are skills they don’t have.

Sorry, I checked this weeks stats like literally everyone else.

its called a turn punch and to do it you have to cancel punch by jumping and turning. By jumping you cancel the punch meaning you will doing no damage the punch is done but you keep the momentum this is what allows you to turn around corners and is mostly used as a escape or when going all in and using your ult to escape

There is no magical turn punch that hits people and kills them your comment just shows you know nothing about doomfist and how he works
