Climbing to Gm.....

Any hog brothers out there hard stuck plat/diamond? Send some replay codes and I'll tell you exactly what you need to do to climb...

#Hog Army

Top tip for Roadhog, his Crimson Variant of his gun that you buy with comp points sucks. His gun is so big that you can see the talon logo constantly, and it doesn't move, it just stays in the same place and triggers motion sickness.

Oh my god. The memories and the feel came right back to me. It feels so good.

Also is it just me or does he feel stronger? I remember having to hook, walk forward, shoot and melee but now i dont even have to melee 90% of the time they just get deleted

I havent played much but he still has his counters, even more now.

And to celebrate me coming back i bought my fav skin for him, ice fisherman!

Title

Hog "furry" skin are the best Hog skins out there and there is literally no debate abt that

I felt like a jerk but it was too funny not to share. Im the hog obviously.

I just wanna know, the cuts and invisible enemies is cause it’s replay and my WiFi’s far from my room so it takes a bit to load everything

Usually I always default to the double hook perks in 5v5, but noticed that many enemy Hogs when they see me go shrapnel launcher. Cyx also sometimes picks that minor perk in 5v5 as well recently, but I assumed that that's because it's incredibly high elo and he knows what he can do against a certain team comp rather than it strictly being a Hog mirror battle.

While in this topic, how about against Mauga and Orisa?

If overwatch wants to actually balance hog to fit their community desires (remove one shot) they would have only 2 options:

Rework scrap gun and hook completely .Since these 2 abilities are complementary for each other (bad ending)

For example scrap gun is mostly useless without hook

Hook is also useless without scrap gun

Therefore reworking only one them isn't going to fix the issue

There is also another way to fix this and its by giving hog an extra ability

This ability will let hog keep his hook and scrap gun but also remove his vulnerability due to the lack of one shot.

Like an ability that would make his hook not too punishing for both him and the hooked person but also wouldn't make hog completely useless when hooking someone and also not die within hooking that person

I personally believe that these are the only roads blizzard can take to keep hog fun without necessarily ruining him completely

Okay so with them saying they wanna try and rework hog sometime soon I wanna try my hand at rebalancing him.

This is going to sound crazy at first but what if hook pulled hog towards whoever he hits?

It takes the card out of Reinhardt and Venture's playbooks where they trade their position for lethality.

I honestly don't think it would be super strong, maybe they would have to increase the CD back to 8 seconds but I think it would keep him really rewarding to land hooks while giving him the added mobility he needs

Maybe he could get a perk that gives him impact damage with that big fat round plump juicy gelatinous belly of his that deals a little knockback too?

It sounds like something from an April Fools mode but genuinely so does one shotting someone from 20m away on a 6 second CD if we weren't so used to it. I dont think Hog is very good but I think if this happened it would fix multiple problems in his kit at once. We would need to tweak some numbers for sure but overall i'd like to see it in practice at least.

usually i don't post clips like this, but it felt dishonorable to not show off a flick this good (also ignore muted audio, had music playing in the background felt not needed) (reuploaded cause someone pointed out clip couldve been shorter very early and he was very right like i said never upload clips like this so really dont know the best way to do them so heres the clip but just with out the extra not needed ending part)

this character is peak comedy

Seeing all the random Doomfist clips/shorts with him singing 'Cheerleader' kinda made me think it actually fit for him.

So if Hog had like a theme song or music what it be?
