About the only people who this will reliably get is 76 and Bastion. Otherwise, they completely negated the point of Roadhog, which was the fact that he was a one-trick pony.

People don't realize that both his primary and alt fire have a fuck-huge drop off--making him fire all that much faster does nothing if he does shit for damage.

It's still amazing that Roadhog gets nerfed to fuck and back, but Dva and Rein still OP as fuck.

Why did they change it that landing a good hook broke if any part of the enemy was out of sight after it hand landed? Te hit box was the only thing that needed fixing. Hell, I'd even argue pulling people around terrain is fine. You don't see projectiles doing no damage just because they managed to get behind cover after it had connected.

Wow its almost like Roadhogs team needs to work with him! All it would take is an idle shot at the hooked hero while they are still being reeled in to secure the kill. Fuck not even.

With the current changes Hog would be perfect if his alt fire had two or three more meters. Other then that any decent hog player should be able to adjust. The only people really mad are those who literally needed the combo to do anything. If you never killed some one with a clutch alt fire then you honestly shouldn't be playing hog in the first place. Hooking squishies in a tight hallways isn't impressive.

Your non argument has been addressed multiple times. Just literally shoot the fucking person twice. Squishies should be left with less than 50 health on a hook and you have four fucking shots to finish them with. Git fucking good and hop off the crutch.

Rein being picked 100% is old news. Dive comp has pushed Rein pick rate down the shitter now.

Honestly, the only really major issue is that when he latches onto someone they're stunned. The game would be more interesting if during the drag they could actually shoot back.

Gee a massive target with poor range and mobility heavily reliant on landing a hook, otherwise feeds ultimates.

That's like saying a good Widow has no checks because they keep landing headshots.

There was nothing wrong with Roadhog, just bads crying over being bad.

Honestly, I'm fine with the hook change for the most part, but I think it should still 1 hit quit genji. Why does that slippery little nip get a pass when Pharah and Zen still get 1 shot?

Roadhog players are the most delusional faggots in the game. It's designed as a team shooter and Roadhog is an extremely low skill combo of hook stun kill. Get over it. It's well overdue. Your hook should require team play or thought to pull off a gank, not one shotting someone every 8 seconds.

Grab widow; 1 shot either of them with a headshot since they're slow and in the sky or get a soldier and mccree to do it
>>
>>378748445
This has been a long time coming and i'm glad that blizzard finally realized that Roadhog had to lose his ability to 1shot people in order for reaper to become a truly viable answer to tank spam.

It's not a coincidence they just figured out a simple way to buff reaper against big targets but not against smaller nimbler targets.

This is a team game. Tanks and healers should be relying on their damage dealers to help them secure kills. Taking away hog's ability to 1shot means he can be buffed on any number of other fronts, namely buffed into being better at actually tanking, the thing that was ostensibly his job this whole time.

Why do people keep saying this? When did blizzard ever explicitly state that "the point of roadhog" was to oneshot all but ~4 characters?

Why can't the point of roadhog be the anti-tank tank, or the pick tank who actually relies on his teammates for followup because it's a fucking team game?

Roadhog's ult is much lower impact than most others.

Blizzard does not balance around the highest pro tournament meta. Winston has been a top pick for months but his bubble was buffed recently because the 99.9% of the playerbase who does not play fucking tournaments rarely used his ass.

Joe Blow Silver is more important than muh precious elitist GM players purely because silver, gold, and diamond players make up most of the people in the game.

McCree can manage to kill 1 flanker, but if there are more than 1 then he's just getting traded. And don't say McCree can just flick and headshot people, by that logic Hanzo and Widow are excellent at stopping flankers. McCree is the worst attack hero right now, I have no idea why they buffed his ult instead of fixing his flashbang to be more reliable.

So why is Hog not instagibbing after a hook seen as a bad thing and only shitters would want it? It should only affect shitters since at higher levels of play there should be a higher level of team work. Pulling people out of position is huge and there's a number of other people that simply needs to turn and shoot once or twice to kill the guy.

Because that was Roadhog's character: he's the nastiest person on the roster, so it makes sense his gameplay was being the only tank that was an active aggressor and not based around helping his team or relying on them.

If they're rolling back on that, you may as well go play one of the tanks who already help their team and get helped by them, you'd probably do better.

come on son. Reaper is a LEGIT Roadhog murderer now instead of "getting lucky". He kills tanks even better now, but he will still have to go toe to toe with other dps for a kill. It evens out. I don't know what Roadhog's role is now. Reel people in to be killed? Use his hook to stun shit? He is still pretty strong, but his hook combo is no linger a death sentence.

Technically he does draw more fire, he's easy to hit and crit, it's risky to keep him alive and he gives people easy ults
>>
Roadhog was never a "tank." He's always been a squishy DPS. He makes up for his lack of mobility with a larger health pool. So, of course, the way to balance him is to nerf his DPS while not buffing anything else.

It's a self stun that lasts 3 seconds and can't be cancelled.

McCree

Deadeye
Targets now begin locking on after 0.2 seconds, instead of 0.8 seconds
Damage accumulated over the first 1.0 seconds increased from 20 to 80 (damage per second after the first 1.0 seconds is unchanged)

Developer Comment: McCree’s ultimate can deal a lot of damage if it has a lot of time to build up, but it was often too difficult to get even a small amount of damage out before being stopped or killed. These changes make it more flexible and powerful.

Reaper

The Reaping (Passive)
Removed health orbs
Now regains 20% of all damage done to heroes as health

Developer Comment: Reaper’s old healing passive was useful if you could kill a bunch of enemies in a row. But since enemies needed to be dead for it to work, it wasn’t very helpful unless the situation was already in your favor. His new passive lets him get immediate benefit from it, especially when fighting Tank heroes, which tend to be larger targets that deal lower damage.

Roadhog

Head hitbox size reduced by 20%

Scrap Gun
Bullet damage decreased by 33%
Fire rate increased by 30%
Clip size increased from 4 to 5

Developer Comment: Roadhog’s head was abnormally large compared to similarly-sized characters, so we’re reducing its size to increase his survivability. The Scrap Gun changes reduce the power of his hook combo and alternate fire burst damage potential while still keeping his DPS roughly the same.

He'll be forced to do what he was designed to do. Be a front line utility that pulls over-extending enemies into friendly line of fire.

Here's a tip for you:

If you want to still one shot people, hook the people who have already been in firefights and are running for health

The Genji who has lost 1 health and is spamming I NEED HEALING and requires his own personal Ana and Mercy welded to him at all times is the best target for your hook, aim at him.

>>378768561
Shield is not only low health which means it can't take sustained fire even with the lower cooldown, but it's also stupidly small and stationary which means you can easily just go around or above it.

Fortify is fucking useless thanks to her large hitboxes and critboxes.

Gun's high rate of fire means it has a low per-bullet damage which makes it shitty against anything with armor, but the bullets being projectiles and not hitscan means it's harder to hit squishies, so she's basically terrible against everyone damage-wise.

Pull is a mild annoyance unless you can catch someone for an enviro kill, and you're not doing that outside of bronze because of how slow the stupid thing is.

Ult being destructible makes it useless because you have to either park it around a corner which limits where your team can go, or park it behind your shield which limits where your shield can go.

There are zero situations where she's a more useful pick than any other tank.

-low health for a tank

-Fortify is only useful as a panic button against Charges, Blizzards, and Gravitons
-Halt! is situational and not very reliable
-hitbox the size of the payload and headbox as big as D. Va's positioned where it can be hit from all angles

Unless the entire team is built around her Orisa is near useless.

Oh, right, I forgot about all of those shields Roadhog offers. Oh, wait...

He's not a tank. He's always been a DPS who made up for his lack of mobility (he doesn't have a grapple, he doesn't have recall, he can't climb walls, he can't teleport, etc.) with a higher health pool.
>>
>>378769346
This.
Roadhog wasn't ever really a tank, he was just a low mobility ganker with selfheal. Now he has zero mitigation outside of the occasional (and usually accidental) body-block, and to compensate for that, a ... weaker gun?

WINston is all brain and no aim.
Don't be stupid when you dive, learn when to interrupt and section off, never engage with someone who has the opportunity to engage you at range unless you can 100% safely close the gap (or know you can dive out after the kill to your heals; you don't want to bait them into a heavy firefight and lose two lives instead of just yours).

>>378771203
You're not going to get all of those in the head after a hook. It's not a case of git gud, the hook now drops them off too far away and hitboxes for some squishy characters are too narrow. Best you can do is try and bodyshot them for 180, which means you still need another shot to finish off everyone but Tracer.

You also need to factor in armor damage resistance. Previously he'd do 325 against armor if all the pellets hit the head, now it's 175 because of how armor works.

There's no fucking way in hell hog is dead, what is wrong with you people?
33% reduced damage on a 300+ damage meatshot, oh the horror.
As if he can't still one-shot 200 HP characters if you actually land the shot correctly.

Meanwhile, he's now a better Reaper because he can demolish tanks with his increased fire rate.
>>
>>378771681
>>378771602
Did you forget about his M2? I was getting instakills with that on the PTR much more easily than with his hook combo and with his greatly increased rate of fire and added ammo you can spam M2 at enemies and even without headshotting chew up their health and barriers fucking fast.

>33% reduced damage on a 300+ damage meatshot, oh the horror.
not counting crits, because that brings in the whole issue of how many pellets are crits and so on, Hog's previous damage was 225, 285 with the hook combo, not 300+.
>As if he can't still one-shot 200 HP characters if you actually land the shot correctly.
He can, but everything is much more inconsistent, which the talk about Hook 1.0 will tell you is a terrible thing to have in a game.

What the nerf does is push him closer to his team, since he can now no longer consistently one shot enemies, and his alt fire can no longer one shot anything but a tracer.

You could with the previously mentioned combo, though it's technically two shots it's more in the spirit of a one-shot since shoot-hook-shoot is no more or less counter-able than just hook-shoot
>>
I haven't played overwatch in a while and don't really plan on playing it again anytime soon, but last time i played roadhog couldn't even one shot half the cast anymore after they nerfed his hook (didn't pull them as far, also added cooldown). So why did they nerf him again? Most people already survived the hook unless they were super squishy but that doesn't matter because if you can hook someone like a tracer or genji and they don't blink/block you should be rewarded for that. Everyone else pretty much survives the initial hit then could press one of their buttons to escape and live.

Seems kind of retarded to nerf him even more now.
>>
>>378751763
Something had to chance since Roadhog made Reaper fucking pointless as a character.

As is Roadhog can still drag an enemy into the middle of your team (which is still a really bad thing to have happen to you,) he just doesn't instantly kill you every time along with being able to gib at close quarters AND mid range with good aim, along with a rapidly recharing self heal for half his health.

He was a DPS better than almost any other DPS with the con of "can give the other team ult if you play him badly"

>>378773693
the enemy displacement abilities have some pretty wide ranges for damage.

Pharah: 0
Lucio: 25
D.Va: 25
Roadhog: 30
Winston: 50+1 if you took off near them
Junkrat :120
Reinhardt: 50+300 if you pin

D.Va's damage being that low is, I think, the trade off for being able to completely control where you're going during it.

Your shield is made of paper so don't use it to defend your team. Focus fire will shred it in seconds. Instead use it for dueling squishies. It can handle a 1v1 fight with most heroes or buy you some time to finish off a healer if one of their teammates try to get you.
Avoid Roadhog and Reaper. Just don't even bother unless they're being focus fired and about to die anyway. You'll just get destroyed and do no damage.
Only really dive towards an enemy if they're really low health. Otherwise you might as well just dive into a pit.

Roadhog is the character that encourages the least amount of teamplay so I love seeing hogfags cry.
>>
>>378774128
Out of position usually means "not behind cover". If you're peeking out from a wall to bait out a hook, then you'll be fine. If you're walking in a straight line across the open battlefield, then you're out of position. Roadhog is the easiest shit in the universe to counter, and if you get hooked it is your fault.
>>
>>378773995
McCree's flash fan was the exact same as roadhogs hook, but shorter range
a 600+ damage, 100% guarenteed kill.
It got nerfed into the ground
even though it had LESS RANGE than roadhogs hook, when they both did the same thing
>inb4 McCree isn't supposed to do that much damage
>the dps is not supposed to do damage but the tank is
>>
>>378773462
Out of positioning is a retarded meme. For one, that literally means knowing where a hog is at all times. Because unlike pretty much every other character in the game, a hog can be drastically out of position and be rewarded for that fact.

Secondly, Zarya doesn't fully counter Hog, especially since even without his hook he can kill people pretty reliably.

Thirdly, teamwork is a retarded excuse, since literally every character goes down if they're focused by an entire team. It also relies heavily on the Hog being caught out in the open and without his team too. Even then, he can wind up killing one or two people before he goes down.

i get what you're trying to say, if hog is nullified then he becomes a major liability to his team - but I think that's also the case for any other hero to a lesser extent maybe and not enough of a con for the benefits he offers

also, he renders reaper pointless.

You just looped back to my original point of "out of cover" essentially being not behind a reinhardt
>>
>>378774893
Yes, but your argument is to use cover to try and avoid Hog. Not only can Hog flush you out of said cover, but so can his entire team. Not to mention that most maps don't have THAT much cover, and if your entire team is utilizing it, it means that everyone is fairly spread out. Making it harder for healers to do their job, as well as making it easier for ults to wipe them out.

Not saying to not use cover, but acting as if its the be all end all solution is moronic at best.

>>378779216
Because as broken as he is, he doesn't fit into the current Metas. Current Meta is Dive, and Hog doesn't really fit that. Likewise, when the triple Tank meta was a thing, he DID get used more.
>>
>>378780317
And before the Ana-enforced triple tank, Roadhog wasn't used much in competitive either.

It's almost like Roadhog himself was never actually the problem.
>>
>>378780317
So hes not broken then.

If he was broken, he would be used in every meta, because hes so strong there isn't a reason to take someone else.
As that isn't the case, Its easy to argue he is actually quite balanced.

Not necessarily. In a team based game, what they bring to the table is what matters most. As strong as he was, hes a hero who isn't a team player. Also, both of you are ignoring the fact that Hog is the most used hero to climb ranks in competitive because of his broken ass nature making it easier for him to climb in it.

Which is due to his broken ass nature.

>>378780694
What is your definition of broken then?

Broken means something that needs to be fixed, but if Hog isn't overbearingly winning games, then nothing needs to be fixed.

As for team based games argument, roadhog should be fine according to this thread, as your team can just shoot the target you hook, but if that was the case why isn't his usage more ubiquitous?
>>
Fat fuck deserved every bit of the nerf and more. I hope those shitter 'hog "mains" never get a legitimate kill again and realize the only reason they managed to contribute ANYTHING besides the other teams ultimate charge was because of their broken OHKO hook combo.

Poorly designed and flat out overpowered. The fact that hes used to climb the ladder overwhelmingly actually is a note against what you're saying.

Hes used less in higher ranking games simply because coordinated teams have better options available than him.

>>378781179
1 shotting most of the roster every 6 seconds is pretty fucking busted nigger. You don't see Genji hitting shift on cooldown for kills, you don't see Rein doing it either. Now your hook actually requires either teamplay or intelligence to know when it's useful to secure a kill. That's it.

>>378781585
That was a different anon that claimed he is used to climb the ladder. I stick with usage rates, and pro data.

I agree his design is atrocious, but once again, if hes not the best choice every game, how is he overpowered? Is Symmettra OP, because she wins a majority of games on the first capture point?

>>378781974
Other characters can also one-shot across the map, even without cooldowns.
>>
>>378782238
Sym is a bit OP at the moment, yeah. Shes counterable, but is she remotely balanced? Not really. And I say this as someone who likes Sym.

Hog is similar situation, just because hes OP, doesn't mean hes always the best choice in every situation either. and even in usage rates/pro data, hes still at a solid 50% overall even in the highest tiers. Further, hes also the de-facto character choice for climbing in the ranks overall.
>>
>>378751236
>blink/wraith/...
Most if not all of those characters STILL get one shot by the combo with a 30% damage reduction. Even if it didn't, you're also pulling people out of position and into harms way.

>>378782589
>Doesn't hook>shot>melee still oneshot 200 hp heroes?
Sort of, on the PTR it does 209-210 damage if every pellet hits and none of them are criticals. That means if you miss just two pellets you're dealing 198-199 damage. And it was already easy to miss more than that on many characters before. Overall Roadhog's old combo is much less consistent now

>Not to mention headshots and right click before throwing hook.
The Alt and Hook combo is now pretty much the only way to attempt to get the kill, and that basically requires them to be around 13 in game meters away from Roadhog for it to work, any further and you still basically have the problem of upclose shots, you just won't deal enough damage and leave room for your target to use their escape.

And it's fine, I don't know why you think someone with Roadhog's health pool and 300 self heal should be a unbeatable 1v1 character that shits on the "Tank buster" character with no effort. You can still drag players away from their team, the only thing you're doing now is dragging them to your team since this will force more teamplay out of Hog. This is a good change, suck it up baby.
>>
>>378784253

You're gonna be killing squishies just as fast as before. The higher mag size and fire rate make you more useful without hook which is HUGE considering he's pretty much useless without it in live.

Plus that reduced damage is like, 30 at most, your team should be able to finish them off.

>>378785380
It most likely is, and it's fine. Roadhog was an uncontested 1v1 god that no one could stand up against, not even Reaper. With this change Hog doesn't invalidate 99% of the cast at the press of a button and Reaper vs Hog is in Reaper's favor now as it should be.

>Reaper vs Hog is in Reaper's favor now
I've yet to actually play against anyone using reaper on the PTR, limited time that I've had, hence my focus on just numbers rather than practical data.
So lets look at numbers!

At optimal range Reaper deals 2(7*20)= 280dps
At the same range Roadhog deals 1.3(6*25)=195dps
With no critical hits of course.

So from full health Roadhog will kill Reaper in 1.28 seconds
Reaper will kill Roadhog in 2.14 seconds.

Since in this fight we don't have damage coming at all times from there's characters, we'll instead equate their damage to number of shots.

Roadhog kills Reaper in Two shots (dealing a total 390 damage) this will take 1.2 seconds.
Reaper kills Roadhog in Five shots. (dealing a total 700 damage) this will take 2.5 seconds.

With that we can answer the other question, what about Reaper's healing?
With the number of shots Reaper needs to fire, he will heal for 140 hp (5(140*.2)) making his effective health now 390, exactly how much damage Roadhog does in two shots.

So, just standing facing each other, Roadhog still wins.
