He’s not an off-tank “”"“checking positioning”""" any more. He’s the one and only main tank on the team. Junker Queen’s knife is a lot closer to how his hook should work. She pulls people (not very far though) but doesn’t completely shut them down with zero hope of survival.
Because he’s not. You can put “checking positioning” all you want, but if hog’s in front of you, and you’re out of positioning so he can hook you for free, its only your fault. Accept it or don’t, the truth doesn’t change.
If the one tank is flanking then who is holding the front and more to the point the fact that he is flanking becomes VERY obvious and an obvious flank is just a feeder.
Nope, because in your example, you merely state he’s “checking positioning”. Naturally, since he’s the only tank, its safe to assume he’s in front of his team and checking the enemy position for an easy kill so his team can move up. I’m not going to jump to think that he’s flanking because, in OW2, hog’s usually can’t afford to flank as much from what I’ve seen.
His one shot’s not an issue because it doesn’t exist. Three moves is not a one shot, and I refuse to think anyone who calls it a one shot is able to handle discussions on hogs.
Technically roadhog can indeed one-shot, much like reaper can, but the spread on roadhog’s weapon is so vast all the numbers people bring up on roadhog’s damage output is meaningless in the face of actual practical gameplay.
I don’t like how he can get one shots from 20 m away. I respect Rein pin one shotting cause he has to put himself in danger. THAT is the difference and why I don’t respect Hog.
That’s my issue with the kit - the idea is noble; a punisher of people out of position except his kit design just let’s him run out of position to punish people in position
They went wrong with Hog when they let him move with breather. He should move at like 50% speed or -30% speed.
Dude get real. Hogs do this all the time, wander around apart from team trying get flanks - he is out of position. It’s not the players, sorry. You guys can defend this crap kit all you want, not a single pro or CC of merit thinks this kit is a good design.
