Why Junkrat Is The Most Misunderstood DPS In OVERWATCH 2

[@Giovanni-A]

Sorry for the Mega death aids audio. I might go to the doctors for a check up if it gets worse

[@rage_tv4493]

I just can’t agree no one shot feels fair. Spam rat is easy to counter yes but your plan B is the most unfun piece of shit playstyle ever. Not only are you walking up behind me and one shotting me but for some dumbass reason you make no fucking sound when you do it. Your foot steps are way too damn quite for a character who can one shot you. Hanzo is luck based yes but if your playing a a speed demon flanker you’re going to kill him. Widow maker has one of the loudest foot steps in the game and is extremely distinct so you can easily know where she is at. Junkrat makes no sound whatsoever and he thrives in CQC. Only way to fight him is if you know where he is at all times and if you just stay at range. How can you realistically even do this? His mobility is insane and like I said he makes no sound. It’s not really practical to constantly try to be aware of where he will show up. Before someone says “umm actually he does make sound 🤓🤓.” Yes Ik he does make sound but you can’t hear it over all of the sounds in a team fight but for some reason I can hear widow foot steps while in a team fight just fine. Give him more sound. He’s just not fun to fight against and it’s not healthy for the game how easy it is for him to one shot enemies. I’m a support player and I think junkrat is way more annoying to deal with than meta Doomfist.

junkrat is simple but because of that simplicity people are gonna learn to deal with that so in order to get good with junkrat you have to adapt as much as everyone else is adapting. Starting out junkspam is what's most consistent, even going into higher ranks but since other players will adapt to that you have to change up the plans to playing him, going for flank routes or covering options, something i love doing personally is throwing a conc mine right over someone and them walking perfectly over it

[@maxchess6734]

The problem is still that when you spot him, he still can kill you from a long range arrow... junkrat can't if you spot him early enough also, hanzo has sonic arrow, junkrat does not (and is forced to predict everything, based on audio)

[@l3vi13]

This is the first time I've heard about junkrat being a spammy character. And when I look back now there was one occasion where there was a junk rat who wasn't even trying he was just firing in one direction, not even changing angle Edit: this may be a suprise to many but I found it hard to play junk. When I first used him I didn't know about the spamming stuff so I was constantly changing angles. P.s: I dont mind the audio and it sounded no different to anything else. Hope you get better gio 👍

[@poo0927]

bro your videos are so consistent and underrated af

[@janusan89]

As an old Demoman player from TF2, I really enjoy playing as him because of how similar - but still different - his playstyle is. On top of that I like how his trap is good for map awareness: if you see someone falling for a trap, you can check and try to kill the enemy, and if they destroy the trap you know there's someone coming nearby. I really like to play him as a sort of "map defender" type of hero, where my bombs, traps and grenades function as eyes. Sure, he requires less aiming to be effective - and I can't aim well due to twitchy hands - but if a junkrant can aim his nade and bomb correctly you can get rid of a lot of key targets easy.

[@scumknight6074]

I’d argue self-damage is the issue. Junkrat can throw a pipe and mine with no regard for safety, so there’s no counter face to face. Meanwhile Demoman requires medium distance to be effective because of self inflicted explosives.

[@janusan89]

@@scumknight6074 I guess, it depends also whether you wear a shield or not on him, but overall I kinda play him the same way except "woohoo, no self damage". Even though stickies are on echo...maybe junk's timed bomb should sticky on enemies too lol! If anything I wish Pharah would have no self damage...I mean cool, she's basically a soldier with flying abilities without having to rocket jump but stil gets self damage despite everything. Makes no sense despite not always being close

As a Junkrat main...yes...just yes

[@freeze2711]

Respect your opinion, but how can you say Hanzo is annoying and then turn an call Junkrat "misunderstood"? That sounds a like a massive cope. Junkrat's bomb jumps require the most basic understanding of mechancis. Almost everyone I know that played a competitive FPS before could do them if they tried, even though they don't play the character. The same logic you used to call Junkrat "misunderstood" applies to Hanzo even more. His fast trick shots are MUCH harder to land than whatever Junkrat has to do with his bombs, since Hanzo's arrows are literally the smallest projectiles in the game. That clip you played at 2:20 literally has an Ashe standing still for a solid 5 seconds, so I don't know what you are trying to prove there... lol Funny that you used that clip, because something I have noticed about a lot of people that complain about Hanzo is that they stand still so frequently, or have weird movement.

Facts and facts only. We can all agree that both Hanzo and Junkrat are cringe, and Junkrat is tied with Moira for the epitome of skilless.

​@@CanadianKomodo I wasn't really talking about what's cringe and what isn't, that's just a matter of prespective, so no not "all of us can agree". Personally I would rather watch a good Hanzo like Arrge over any top 500 Junkrat, but that's beside the point. I was just baffled at the statement of "hanzo takes no skill but Junkrat does". It's like saying Ana takes no skill but Moira does, like HUH???????????? It just sounds like a cope

[@niallmoseley6760]

Junk just like widow is low skiill cuz of how OP they are compared to other dps. Edit: Also concuss mines do absurd damage, even if they completly miss.

[@firstnamelastname9237]

I love junkrat. Play him less often since OW 2, but when I need my kills I revert back to him. I enjoy him a lot and absolutely love doing what you called precision airstrike, and the plan b. I also love taking full advantage of the death bombs because sometimes death inevitable, might as well bring someone with me. Another pro for players on the enemy team using airstrike: It causes me momentary panic thinking they picked pharah who I can’t seem to handle if they’re either pocketed or even mediocre in intelligence/skill. I just struggle so hard to hit enough to kill her no matter my hero. Junkrat has a really low skill flow, but once people actually start using their head and getting better at aiming themselves, it gets a lot more fair.

[@theshadow5200]

I just wish junkrat took self damage to his bombs not even asking for a lot but like 10 or 5 when you consider every other character with explosive weapon

[@mikejowan3340]

Junkrat shouldnt 1 shot. Thats my only complaint. He already gets so much for free (mobility, cc, area of denial, splash, strong ult, strong primary fire, even damage after death). He doesnt need the ability to right into left click insta kill. They could change this a number of ways too. Personally, I like the route of making his mines unable to be airbursted (nerfs his THREE mine mobility get away which is so safe and makes instakills harder to set up). This junk is still lethal, can still kill a squishy before they can react, but adds a level of skill gap outside of learning to aim better (irrelevant at close range).

[@kommandantkillcode]

I’d rather his concussions just do less damage so people have more time to react to a Junkrat instead of always getting two shot by the extremely easy and quick combo.

[@mikejowan3340]

@@kommandantkillcode Also a valid take. I personally like more creative options than just cranking numbers but I would be greatful for anything tbh

[@kommandantkillcode]

@@mikejowan3340 I’d like for him to keep his mobility kit since it allows for interesting and fun playstyles that are much less annoying, except for the insta-kill mine combo. If it was pretty much required to be two nades or a nade, mine, melee, then it would be easier to react to and avoid/counter.

[@Thispersonisreal]

Junkrats oneshot is his only defence, his mobility is semi-great only, it's too slow, remember that if he wastes a mine on you, he either have 1 or none left, which junkrat needs to use correctly to either escape or secure another kill, a good player can sense that junkrat which just wasted a mine won't have any in a engagement if they also used another to jump Junkrat is too squishy to not have damage, his projectiles are slow and he's nearly defenseless against flying dipshit duo (echo and pharah)

Thing is while i agree that junkrat can be cool, and his playstyles can be very unique, it gets very overshadowed by spam rat as its just safer to play and you get rewarded for it, this is coming from a junk player as well

It's a mix of the playstyles that makes him good. Only doing one of these in a match just makes you lose most probably.

You know how Blizz in one of their latest blogs answered "Why am I hardstuck at a rating that doesn't reflect your skill" and they basically said it's cause "you're bad but dont want to admit it?" I feel like that's entirely Junk. He shoots slow, loud, bright projectiles. If you're dying to spam, it's not because the hero is OP and easy. It's because you refuse to learn. As soon as high plat, people start wising up to when Junks spam and it becomes much harder for him to aim as people have the awareness to dodge. Junk loses a lot of match ups because his shots are so slow and others are more consistent than he is. Flankrat becomes the best way to play at high ranks because he doesn't have much outside of his combo. With the changes Cass got, too, he's in the same boat. Burst damage that can be great for surprise flanks. He's however a hitscan so he's much more consistent at mid range so he has more options.

Okay okay lets calm down with the "junk is a skillful dps". all the dps characters have their skill floor and skill ceiling. Hanzo can spam down main for lucky head shots in low elo but as you go up intentional aiming is needed cause nobody runs down main in a straight line. Same with junkrat. He is actually less skill full due to the size of his projectile hitbox, mine radius and his potg ult button. He can be played skillfully but overall a very forgiving character.

[@kalfy2491]

Nah, Junkrat definitely is one of the most op heroes in the game, and he has been since 2017 when he got that buff with those 2 mines that he has. I rather die to a Hanzo or Sojourn, just because they can insta kill with HEADSHOTS doesn't make them unbalanced. It's not even easy to play those 2 heroes, but whenever I just try out Junkrat he just becomes such a killing machine its frankly just ridiculous. 120 dmg with primary, 120 with mines, 100 with the trap. And especially the combo with the primary and mine, it's just straight up ridiculous. It would be better if the mines did way less damage (like 80 maybe) and couldn't be instantly detonated when throwing it. It should have a down time for 1 second to detonate it, or maybe it should land somewhere before detonating it. And I am not even sure about the point you made that Junkrat has a learning curve to him. You mention that he has many different styles of playing him, so it's kinda stupid for me to start making analysis on the first mistake I would make if a junkrat happens to kill me from behind. He will notice that I am aware of him coming from behind, so what he can do is just do a different style of gameplay and the whole situation with him would be back on square one. Also, overwatch isn't a slow paced game, there won't be time to always check and see if a Junkrat will come up from behind and kill you. If I am a healer I have to constantly check on my teammates that they arent about to die and etc.
