I had a team so bad that Hazard felt as if he was somehow the best tank in the game. Luckily our Zen kept him permanently discorded or we would have lost. Had to basically solo carry that one against a Sombra that made me want to hurt myself.
love him!! still learning a lot on him, but i think i finally have another tank i like playing (usually stick to dva/jq). im figuring out his playstyle, which seems to be much more gogogo than im used to. its what i imagine doomfist players feel like? i tend to lose games where i root myself somewhere and poke for too long - feels like the way to win with him is ignore the enemy tank and do tiny dives in and out, saving yourself with block or the rock, disrupting the enemy team with rock and slash until something happens. i dont even need to get picks most of the time - just make enough chaos for my dps to capitalize, maybe chase down someone whos low or isolated with a full rock/slash combo

No. Hazard is super slow and high commitment compared to our favorite warlord.
I have some mixed feelings about Hazard. I enjoy his character design and most of his kit but his Crystal Grower ability I just cant figure out how to use it in a useful way.
But Ive been enjoying his Leap, Slash and Shell Block abilities. Those are pretty dope. And his Ultimate feels pretty effective too when used in close-range.

true! doom is a lot more mobile and has a quicker cycle than hazard. i guess im talking from the perspective of a dva/jq player, where im rooted for much longer in one position before i can see an opportunity to dive

Look, as long as he hasn’t gotten a “Purple Burglar Alarm” voiceline, he doesn’t matter.
I documented a bunch of stuff too during his playtest. Tbh, I’d love to do it again…
Throw it into a spawn door or the widow perch on KR

He’s an off tank being forced to live on a 5v5 main tank world.
I only play him to breeze through the 8 levels weekly challenge.
Im neutral to him.
Glad we got a new hero but it still highlights the lone tank issue of 5v5

the rock is great for a teeny bit of damage and protection! ive been thinking about it as a mix between a tiny mei wall and a sigma rock. a couple things ive tried is using the rock as a mini shield to survive until i can leap back out/get my health back, block off people’s escape routes so that i can dive them better, and as a long range finisher for low health enemies.
the range on it is really nice too - you can block off an enemy ana’s sightline, for example, so that she cant heal her team for a bit, which gives you a small window to mess up her team. same with a widow. you can kind of block certain ultimates with it too, if you can react quick enough - messing up a soldier ult/high noon/earthshatter etc.

Another Kaiju has arrived, what could be worse? A hard diffed Kaiju by another Kaiju, that’s the game we play xD
Stop releasing broken stuff, fix previous first, you won’t.
Dunno they finally make an ok tank and everyone hates it 
gameplay is generic sure but still more engaging than mauga for me
hazard is everything that is wrong with overwatch 2, a tank that isnt a tank because cant protect anyone and is just a dps with mobility, even mei is a better tank than him. and nobody talks about because nobody cares, this character created 0 hype and the season is a fiasco without any content and marvel rivals
Happened to me once. The Hazzy rocked just as I used Shatter, and I got janked up into the doorway I was in.
Sadly, he killed his Junkrat doing that. And then I popped out of the doorway due to the game not wanting me to be in the ceiling, and promptly got lasered and died.
It was freaking HILARIOUS.
Can’t. I’m getting into 5 minute games where the healers are healing less than 200 health. I spend all game searching for health packs and less than 20 seconds in combat.
