I MAINED Junker Queen for a day and FELL in LOVE!

[@Tatsu4242]

I love that you can see it not just in his face, but in his heart and soul, just how happy and joyful he is when he can play a hero he likes to play. Instead of the unethical Hog usage because people clearly need him as a crutch basically.

[@julian5699]

If Blizzard ever Buffs Rein (they won’t) we’ll see a Flats we haven’t seen in a long time.

[@astupidlylongnamethatstoolong]

I've been going hog as a crutch so much just because I didn't want to lose in qp (because team diff, like please swap off bastion against a pharmercy thats stomping you, I already have to swap off rein/ram/junkerqueen because of it.)

[@teddywarlock5379]

Personally, I think her axe swing should be a bit faster. It always feels so clunky and slow to consistently hit people, and it feels like it's her main source of self healing. That and the knife change Flats says in the beginning could put her in a decent spot.

[@umbridly_doodly_oodly4]

It does big damage so I think it’s fair that it’s a little slow. For the “main source” of self healing is the knife, just don’t miss, be smart on the recall or use a quick melee do trigger bleed.

[@Hannah-gc4cy]

@@umbridly_doodly_oodly4 the damage from her axe honestly isn’t that extreme

[@theSato]

@@Hannah-gc4cy I think the wind-up of it makes sense given that she is a tank (with a mini disengage/engage in her shout) and the damage is respectable and can easily hit multiple people and cause bleeds/heals. When I play JQ it feels powerful in the right circumstances, and when JQ's use it against me, it feels fair.

[@kylesmith987]

@@umbridly_doodly_oodly4 The problem is that its not just a little slow. Its incredibly slow for such a fast paced game. It doesn't do much more damage then a rein fires trike which also has 2 charges and comes out way faster. The only significant difference is the healing you get from the bleed but you also only have 1 charge. It 100% should come out faster. That is the number 1 change I want for JQ for her to feel better to play.

I think that curve on the return is so odd and unnecessary. So increasing the cone of effect makes sense and wouldn't be game breaking given you still have to time it well

[@AJSLV2002]

The curve return really isnt bad at all. It took like half a game to get used to its trajectory for me and then i was back to hitting bleed on just as many knife throws as before.

[@SnakeSkinz]

@@AJSLV2002 It isn't bad, just odd and didn't seem to be a warranted change.

@@AJSLV2002 It would be cool if you could control the trajectory a bit by having it arc toward the direction that you point before pulling it back.

[@FreeStyle888.]

Would it be a crazy buff if Queen’s bleed effect had a multiplier for heroes with higher health pools? Idk I thought it’d be cool if Queen could use an enemy hog as a health battery while merking the rest of his team.

[@tau-5794]

Just allow bleed to stack on single targets, so you can get the healing effects of all your abilities at once. Also you get all potential healing on a bleeding target on kill. Maybe also a small buff to shout or the ult's interaction with Kiriko's cleanse.

[@bigfudge2031]

[@deathninja16]

I love how when that Mercy got out of your line of sight and you said Ninja where did you go and then you just see a fair Alton in your face and the perfectly cut scream was hilarious

[@RELAXcowboy]

Dude, Junker Queen is THE most fun tank in the roster. Maybe it's my bronze play style but She just has the extra bit of teeth for me as a dive tank to kill healers while dancing with their tanks to keep attention (especially with a DPS team that can't seem to kill anything.). I also use her shout for more group buffs instead of strictly solo sustain. Dance around the objective as a shield and pop heads. her gun is hit scan and has a respectable enough range to deal with Phara and Mercy ult. Knife people as you run circles around them and confuse them as you run up in their face(add the knife throw/pull while in their face to pull them around and make it harder to aim at you). I know it probably doesn't work at all in higher level comp but it's fun where I'm at currently and that's all that matters to me. I play JQ extremely aggressively. I don't often front-line hold with her unless it is a push objective. I dance around push objectives to use it as a shield and then on caps I always sneak around the back line and go after supports as my #1 priority.

[@Theportraitdude]

Great gameplay as always Flats, but THOSE TRANSITIONS THO! Fantastic work and it's good to see someone enjoying Junker Queen. We waited so long for her and I hated how fast she got nerfed into the ground.

[@kidstarr100]

[@CourtneysChaos]

The scream cut off at the pharrah ult had me crying 😂

[@P0tatoThief556]

I love the quickplay content tbh, there's less stress overall which is nice.

[@pingufan1239]

I put a lot of thought into this as a GM3 Junker Queen main. Buff ideas: 1. Knife throw does an extra 10 damage on impact OR an extra 15 bleed damage over time. 2. Increase travel speed of throwing knife by %30 to make landing knives easier 3. Buff base health to 450 from 425 4. Buff overhealth given by shout to 250 from 200, giving her 700 total hp once shouting (accounting for the previous increase of 25HP) 5. Increase the speed in which Junker Queen winds up Carnage (axe) by maybe %30. The ability can be canceled a bit too easily, counterplay is usually healthy but it’s way to punishable. 6. Finally increase bleed modifier to give her 1.5x healthy back from 1.25x. A lot of these buffs are minor ones apart from the health buffs, they wanted to increase her own survivability and that’s what I believe these changes accomplish.

[@pingufan1239]

Also Flats I really like your idea to increase the hit box of the returning knife

[@PlagueMommy]

is no one gonna point out that the 2nd to last game was also in a different video? it was his video named POV: You're demoralized after playing against Flats' Rein

[@moeanaya3113]

An awesome buff idea: You should be able to cancel how far she charges in her ult like a rein charge so you can immediately start pumping in damage with the bleed instead of zooming past them then having to back track and chase them

[@Ram3w]

I was playing a game yesterday and our tank said "I'm gonna play Walmart Roadhog" and picked her...I lost it.

[@LJkiller]

"go scout" The last command

[@whaloob]

Bigger knife return makes a lot of sense to me. Wouldn’t mind it having a bit more pullback (or her gun having more damage or lower spread) and her having 25 more health as well-I think those 3 changes would be plenty to put her in a good spot.

[@stormy2913]

They could give her axe anti-heal effect. Or reduced healing. (​ @y z )

[@bojkenoven]

I was thinking something like this, or even the knife to give a tiny bit more HP over time.

[@crabby9154]

Sounds op

That would be absolutely broken. She would just walk up to the enemy tank, anti it and win every single battle.

Zen out damaging DPS is hilarious. It's not rare by any means because zen is so damage focused but it's still funny that the characters designed to do damage and get picks get less than a support with a 0 damage ult.

[@red_ruby4881]

I don't know how useful and/or widely known this fact but Queen can recall the knife during other skill animations. It can make for pretty tight combos with the axe and ult

[@BlackBurn01100]

I almost died laughing at 2:52 HAHAHAHAHA THAT FUCKING ASHE

[@SolarDaz3]

Personally, the two things I would change about Queen are: knife pull back should slightly displace people it hits on its way back. The other would be bleed doing slightly more damage, maybe after using rampage, your bleeds are empowered for a small amount of time. I dunno, I think it would be cool

[@chadboy1515]

Buffs: -1.5x bigger radius on knife return -10% larger radius on commanding shout aura -1 second delay vs 2 second delay to swing your axe This would make her so much more balanced. Hog can literally instantly throw his hook with no charge up and 1 shot any target he hooks. While axe swing has a 2 second delay to hit targets at point blank range and does way less damage.

[@someGuy-kl7cb]

junker queen is honestly really fun, mostly because her one shot potential isn't ez like hog, but actually requires multiple button presses, precise timing, and a true skillshot. plus you are literally playing a battle-crazed maniac who literally screams in battle like a war cry. personally i think knife throw should have an aoe that ALWAYS causes bleed, so rather then it being bigger when coming back, even when you MISS the toss, theres still a bit of bleed if you were close to the target. it would be a buff that wouldn't BREAK her balance, its still a skillshot, its just got a bit of a forgiving aftereffect on a hero who REALLY needs that ranged bleed to be viable on a really hard to hit skillshot.
