I don't play Doom, but I think he's one of the coolest characters in the game. His interactions with other characters are awesome. I especially like his interaction with Hanzo. He's all like "pain...and a sleeping dragon. Wake him up" that shit hits.
It's ironic that fighting games get the same treatment. People see them as "full out brawl between 2 players" but when in reality, movement is key. Like in Tekken with side steps and Korean backdash, or Melee with wavedash, players will use every bug, exploit, and movement opportunity to their advantage, mastering every part of the character, and by that logic, Doomfist is a perfect fighting game character.
I had tried Doomfist lately, but sometimes I feel like an easier target than a Reinhardt standing still without his shield. Now about Titanfall 2, I'm sure it's going to be an epic video! A game that as a child I could never play and years later I managed to. Extremely fun campaign and gameplay too! We'll see you soon pilot!
Doom is easy, you just need decent mechanical skill, and apply pressure in the right places. If you mess up, you die though. Especially when your supports don't know how to play with/don't want to play with a Doomfist. Which is 90% of your games. People see non-Doom players suck at him, and assume he's a throw pick
@@youtuberobbedmeofmyname seems like youve never really palyed doomfist in ow1 just the amount of techs was amazing then the rollouts (that got you value instad of now) nad the comboing was just so nice now you can cancel your slam woooow.... and the other great movement ability "power block" which just gets you stunned and killed
I actually feel you, I mainly play fighting games over fps, and I wanted that in doom, then I stopped playing ow1 right after doom dropped and didn't play ow2 until just recently, and I was hoping to play what I heard was "punchy man but actually viable" and then I got this, which I have fun with every once and a while, but it's just not the doom I was hoping for
Honestly my first experience with doom before I mained him was trying to be him. I overestimated how spongey he would be. In OW2 I started maining him because I finally noticed his skill ceiling and accepted him for what he was. Hes one of the most rewarding heroes in the game.
the 70+ techs were his skill ceiling they are mostly all gone and he feels miserable to play because of it. instead of getting rid of his techs that only 1% of doomfist players used they should of fixed the many bugs he has on going since the beta
I honestly agree with much of what you said here, the design, personality, abilities a character is given is what initially draws me to a character. I became a fan of OW1 Doom upon hearing about him and hoping he would be a brawler/combo character and a unique addition to the game, I have nothing against the fact that people fell in love with his mobility potential, but couldn’t help but think his changes into OW2 leave something to be desired as I hoped they would lean more into his brawler potential. It doesn’t necessarily feel true to what the character’s background and initial design was. I share the same sentiment with McCree/Cassidy, he’s always been a favorite of mine because he’s a smooth cowboy holding his own against future tech using old fashioned methods, which is why I hate the mag grenade he has now, it doesn’t feel like it’s something he’d actually use. Redesigns of various characters leading into OW2 have that problem for me of not staying true to who they were before, but I guess one could also argue it represents growth/change of mindset for those characters although I don’t believe that was ever Blizzards intention. Great video.
Don't worry! They changed Cass's mag grenade into a long range homing bomb that shuts off movement abilities and essentially hacks Doomfist and Ball on cooldown!
Power, thats the most recognisable thing about doomfist, fast strong motion, the feeling of charging a punch 10 meters away from a guy and just hitting him with so much power that he flies and hits a wall breaking the wall and all the bones of his body . Also i like the feeling of being a boss figth like orisa but in a different way , because of the insane mobility doomfist can be anywere on the map, there is no escape from his wrath...
I think the thing that's lacking the most in Doomfist right now is that his primary damage is the hand cannons, not the fist. It's like if Reinhardt had his hammer on a cooldown and fire strike was his primary damage. Honestly I think this could be resolved by changing his ult so he just starts brawling. Give him extra health like Primal Rage and turn his kit back to OW1, maybe change seismic slam to a different move during the ultimate so he can't escape easily and it's more like a commitment. Nobody REALLY likes meteor strike anyway.
I’ll admit that conceptually, I actually love Meteor Strike. The concept of a powerful dude leaping into the air and coming back down smashing anyone or anything in his way is awesome. Unfortunately it was changed in a way that makes only viable as an escape/reset like you said. Your idea of his kit becoming OW1 Doom’s kit I think is a cool idea, in my mind it’s almost like him going “Guess I have to get serious with this enemy” which allows him to retain his lore reputation as being a serious threat capable of crazy strength while also being balanced for gameplay purposes.
The problem comes to his 4 shotgun shots that do barely any damage unless you get a close headshot after a punch to the wall and also requires a low ping so you can actually punch and the immediately shoot
Finally! A Giovanni video on my favorite character! I never played doom during ow1 when I did play and I kinda regret it cause tank doom has easily swept my off my feet with how fun it is to fly around the map and surprise people. I agree with everything you said about him, though I can't really comment about how you feel he's worse than ow1 doom. Really loved the videos and I'm not really picky about the black bars around the video thing, still eye candy either way! Looking forward to the Titanfall 2 video, I've never played it but your Hi-Fi RUSH and Dishonored videos were also very entertaining despite also being games I haven't played. Keep up the amazing work man. 💜
I remember playing him before the buff he got(that only lasted for a short amount of time) and learning him was difficult but fun. It felt like you needed to be careful when you play as Doomfist. Although once he got the buff, in just a short amount of time. You could just go all out and brawl enemies with him which was fun af xD
Hey bro, you are close to hitting 1 million views. Just wanna say that you are the most entertaining youtuber to cover Overwatch, unlike other people who always do highlights or "I tried ball for 10 hours" sorta shiit. Thank you for the masterpieces you put out.
( I commented before watching the video )His movement is really good for flanking and getting health packs. I don't know how often it happens but some doom players forget you can charge his punch like a dash. His slam is also like a high jump.
I can understand your perspective but I find that current doom feels closer to lore doom than in Overwatch 1. Even when he is played optimally I would argue that his movement is more of a complement that allows him to brawl better, so to speak, which feels closer to how I felt doom should be. I sort of toggle between “dive and get quick picks” and “punch the entire enemy team into a wall, instantly dealing 120 damage to all of them” depending on the situation. That kind of playstyle forced me to think a lot more about my positioning and decision making compared to certain other tanks just because I have so many options. That kind of tactical thinking that you use to position yourself so as to exert maximum pressure feels very doom befitting. I also feel like a skyscraper toppler whenever I play well on him because of the aoe punch and because I can chunk a Reinhardt to half health whenever I emp punch one. It feels damn good.
I love both play styles of doom. Doom being that tanky brawler he was always meant to be is really fun. Old doom is also really fun. Having these set ups to pounce on enemies like a lion and the feel of using your abilities like a combo in a fighting game just feels so cool. I love both dooms but I wish we could play the old one still in custom games. Ik someone made a workshop for him but it’s quite buggy.
As a DoomFist main I agree with the majority of what you said. DoomFist In the beta of overwatch 2 in my opinion was awesome. Current doom is super weak and requires too many resources to be viable. I don’t think he will be back to where he was until there’s a lot more characters to counter him. People hate losing to DoomFist. It’s because he takes advantage of the enemies poor positioning etc. then the salt 🧂
i agree, ive never played ow1, but ow2 doomfist seems really tedious to get kills with, i'd MUCH rather a glass cannon than someone with a lot of survivability but not a lot of kill potential edit: YOOOOO ROR2 IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE GAMES I HAVE 340 HOURS ON IT ON STEAM!!!!!
Doomfist is one of those characters that I’d love to play and a backstory/place in the lore that I really like but I never play him and have never learned to.
Honestly I do play doom as a brawler and that's what I wish he was your not alone in this You can kinda do it with his block and punch which I thought was a great step forward And you can sit on a choke punch them back and keep them back with empowered punches to launch a team back but he's still more mobility focused so he doesn't really end up being able to sustain this for too long
Man like Doomfist is my favourite character in overwatch both in lore and the game like have you heard his speeches in his trailer like bro had me STANDING UP every time I heard this man talk but I hate how Blizzard is doing him so dirty like he is so underpowered. He needs buffs. the only way for him to be good is if you play him 24/7 so I really want blizzard to buff him.
I watched your video's for a while and i thought you had like 200k subscribers or smt I just realized you only have 10k how are you not famous already that's very high quality content tbh
You should do the brigg video because you can farm double the views! Especially if it will change soon, hop on the hype train to get this underrated channel up there!
holy shit ror2 footage epic also although I prefer the mobility style Doom i really do feel you with how Doom's design doesn't fit his gameplay, which is a similar issue to Brig.
towards the end of my ow1 career all i was doing was playing Doomfist on FFA. honestly thought he was one of the coolest FPS characters alongside Genji. had a huge blast and so far i haven’t had nearly the same amount of fun on tank Doomfist.
I didn't really touch doomfist back in overwatch 1, straight up because I agree with you: I felt like he was supposed to be balls to the walls, brawler, big punch guy thats supposed to not give a shit about taking damage. If you played him like that in ow1, you'd likely be throwing. I also hated how a random doomfist could fly one me from nowhere just cuz he was abusing a broken system in the game, 100-0 me and then get away with it. His voicelines, his personality, his appearence doesn't scream :''One kill then scramble or die, its worth anyways''. In ow2 I was instantly attracted to tankfist:decent movement, decent tankiness but, for the most part, not enough damage imo. I started playing him just AFTER his big nerfs in s2, and I had fun while it lasted, but everything became so...generic, making me feel like a punchbot even when I was doing my best to make smart moves, get kills and live. Doomfist is THE tank of his team, and he cant directly protect his team, so his best option is to create chaos on the opposing team's end, but if he does such little damage (that sometimes fails to appear, because of course doomfist is still the most bugges hero in the entire game) then he's not a treath, he's not a tank...he's just there. I quit ow2 like 1-2 weeks ago because I don't find it fun anymore. I hate the monetization, I despise how slow they are with balancing and how questionable their decisions are, but what made me truly leave, is the fact I felt they didnt give a shit about doom. Maybe I am just too bad to make doom work, but most everybody that actually plays a lot of doom I know have said that doomfist is very weak unless you're a master at him. Thank you for an amazing video! Was looking forward to your video on doomfist! Please post whatever videos you want, whenever you want. It's clear you care, and you're clearly hard at work for your channel, and to me that's all that matters. Its very rare to see a youtuber to respectful toward's his community's opinion! Keep it up, Giovanni! P.S.:Pokemon videos when?
"but what made me truly leave, is the fact I felt they didnt give a shit about doom." lmfao bro its always been like that not really but yeah I've been starting to realize ow2 isn't great at all and I only enjoyed it at first cause it was new, it's just worse ow1 now :( less personality (people have said there's less aids, like no double shield and stuns, there's other kinds of aids now, one shots being rampant cause of less shields, widow, and there are still lots of stuns AND DAMAGE for the SINGULAR tank to eat up all on their own now lol)
24 seconds in and I'm thinking "Is this the best edited doomfist video i've ever seen?". This scene 0:19 of doomfist charging his fist in the dark into the punch montage was sooooo clean!
How to fix doom: passive lightning bolts that hit players in 10-15yrds around him (2 charges generated per punch?)& gives shield hp so he can be all in and more reliable in his duels
Was waiting for doomfist for a while. He is a very fun character but the switch between combos and brawling to extreme single target focus because of his lack of damage is a bit weird. He now probably the most mobile hero to play, the new seismic slam really helps with his kit. I think a good change were to be adding his uppercut back and binding it to the reload button (because he doesn’t need to reload). It would be a nice mix between his brawly combos I ow1 and high mobility ow2. Also, PLS PLS PLS release that titanfall 2 video as soon as possible, it is my favourite game of all time and pls make a review of it. See you on the frontier pilot.
I like the topic you brought up about characters playing like how they should be played instead of the way they are actually played. Brig is the #1 character for this issue. She looks, feels, and has the kit to be played like mini rein but a support character. Instead of playing her like a close quarters support by being with her tank like lucio that’s not the viable way to play her. The viable way to play her is like a back line support with a shield. Even tho I’ve come to actually like this sort of playstyle as it’s a nice comfort pick for when you’re playing poorly on Ana or zen. I still can’t help but hurt that she’s being played the wrong way. I hope we get a support character that keeps the essence of how to actually play brig while also getting a rework for brig that encapsulates how she should be played.
This is 100% accurate. As a Doom main from OW 1 I can NOT for the LIFE OF ME play doom like the Doom mains in OW2. It's insane what Doom mains in the new game can do. They're so Oppressive when they're good. But in OW 1 I was capable of doing that without worrying about anyone throwing bullets into my face because by the time they put bullets on me I uppercut them into the air and they're getting launched into a wall afterwards
Nah fr having to relearn my main was such a L and all the slam and uppercut techs I learned are now useless lmao. I'm good with him in Ow2 again but it just sucks knowing how fun and dynamic he was in Ow1. I miss the combos, the rollouts the bouncing off walls and coming from unexpected angles and actually having a use for meteor striking people.
Thanks for the vid again man. You're not the only one who thinks same about Doomfist, I see a guy with huge metal fist = I want to punch people in the face hard and not flying around the map. And about new dps video... maybe Reaper guy😅?
I can't wait to see what you thought about titanfall and its campaign. I recently played through it a couple months ago and I loved it so much. I hope you feel the same
im trying to learn doom rn and i learned how toxic people can be. it was a unranked match and my mei kept telling me to switch. i was on a 14 kill streak and just died. they were 6-12.
As a 400 hour doomfist in just overwatch 2 so far, he is leagues above what he used to be. Doom is the premiere when it comes to being a scary tank. Imagine making a character who can counter every ability save for sleep, nade or suzu. His level of disruption is unmatched. I was a hanzo and zarya player in ow1. I cannot get enough of the faculty oozing from doom at all times. As a crackedfist, nobody can counter you. Nobody. Sadly people play him like his older counterpart or a Winston. Unrealized potential is the saddest of mans vicissitude.
@@bambampewpew32 if ifs and buts were candy and nuts. All well and good but it was obvious doom was lackluster as dps in OW and they couldnt remove him from the catalog so they revamped his realized potential. Tank makes much more sense and his mobility is far better now. Old doom was just not as fun. This is a fact.
@@dreddem never played old doom but he does look a lot more fun tbh. New doom feels underwhelming 70% of the time. However I fully agree with your other points.
@@Smallahz old doom was out of place and you had to work much harder to excuse picking him vs easier value dps. I miss him too♥💯. However doom is a new character in theory and should be treated like one. I see to many people failing their best getsqueakedon ego throwing impersonation because youtube. when he is much more self sufficient and steadfast in one. His rework was truly a thing of beauty, idek how blizzard managed it. Cant wait til i see more of my little doom babies sprout.
_I really really really like seeing people who are good at doomfist play doomfist. I never experiencie Doomfist ow1, but I LOVE doom from ow2. He has power, but only if you, the player, put it to use. I don't know how to put it to use, because that's not what I do, but when I see good Doom players play they dominate the battlefield. His abilities are not very good alone, but you can combine them and cancel them a lot more than any other hero. When you kill someone as Doom, you have earned it. You became, even so slightly, a strong and intelligent tactician, just like him. You have the power to win every game, but only if you put it to use. That, for me, is the Doomfist fantasy. Knocking back the hole team alone, predicting someone with his ult, appear from nowhere and just burst someone not because your fist oneshoots, but because you punch someone against a wall so you can quickly two tap them in the head. That's what a "strong and intelligent tactician" should look like in my eyes, not just pure force but a carefully constructed plan crafted in the moment of action, using your little abilities to make a HUGE impact._
I want a character that FEELS powerful and satisfying while being able to flow super good with badass looks and a badass voice... I hoped doom would be that guy, i play doom because i still love him but if i want the tingly feel of badassery and power i play heroes like ramattra... doom looks like he could solo a skyscraper where all he needs is one punch, but He Feels like a bullet train that hits like a wet d¡ldo with the voice of a diabolic angel I want to immerse myself in the world and characters....
Doom was never tanky enough to be a brawler. The movement techs added speed and suprise to the glass canon. This made him far more survivable and versatile but he ended up being a cc assasin.
When my Ana stands alone on the most exposed balcony, in front of attacker's spawn, and from in there I hear a chocolatey voice going "K! O! K! O! Fine! Hot Cocoa!" You better believe it's gonna be a rough time.
Never played OW1 so OW2 doom is the only one I know season 1 even tho he was weak I loved him so much and getting value was pain but when it happened it was so satisfying season 2 buffs happy then nerfs but even then I still enjoyed him I got to plat with him to get his gold fist (although now I kinda wanna get Reinhardts hammer pls help me) but doom is so satisfying even when orisa tells me I’m not allowed to have fun
While I’ve found equal success with doom in comparison to his old moveset after PvE was cancelled the only thing that could bring me back is if they brought back OG Doom
I play doom not cause the big fist is cool I play doom cause the disrespect when I kill people with the small fist instead of the big fist Also I probably like doom so much cause I did play I tiny tiny tiny bit of overwatch one however I never played doomfist when I played new doomfist it wasn’t a big change since it didn’t play the old one which made me love doom so much Finally I love movement I can’t play a slow character I can’t play sigma , I can’t play bastion , I can’t play zarya (zen and ana are exceptions) but I do see your point doom is see as a man who can destroy anything yet his pucnh use to do less damage then the small punch but movement is key for me (don’t trust me I am bad at overwatch I just love playing doom)
Im a week old player of ow2 & I love doom fist. You can dominate a whole team by pre punching a corner & diving back to healers. Sombra is a hard counter, nothing more annoying than relying on your power ups & you can't use any. Brig is similar & pairs well with doomy.
Doomfist was my second most played character in ow1. He was my favorite character to play by far because of everything u said, but the ow2 doom feels too weak, so I literally haven't touched him since. I get that his new movement is cool and fun but I lowkey miss the punchy character that would one tap half the game
Move at the speed of a bullets, hits with the force of a pillow. 10/10 character
The most recognisable doomfist thing for me is his voiceline. I cant couple him without "AND DEY SAY" "AND DEY SAY"
"One punch is all i need"
"Hot cocoa?"
"one hundred push ups, one hundred sit ups, one hundred squats, and a ten kilometer run!"
@@justanormalbird8302 one hundred one hundred one hundred one hundred one hundred
Shit still makes me laugh to this day. I wonder who the first guy to spam that voice line was.

I love both dooms but I wish we could play the old one still in custom games. Ik someone made a workshop for him but it’s quite buggy.
W video as usual but What was the game at the end?
Holy crap where the hell did that border come from??? I didn't notice it the entire time until you mentioned it at the end LOL
Bro... THAT INTRO! 🔥🔥🔥
Great video good info
As a DoomFist main I agree with the majority of what you said. DoomFist In the beta of overwatch 2 in my opinion was awesome. Current doom is super weak and requires too many resources to be viable. I don’t think he will be back to where he was until there’s a lot more characters to counter him. People hate losing to DoomFist. It’s because he takes advantage of the enemies poor positioning etc. then the salt 🧂
The Intro is how I hype myself up only to get slept Anti naded hindered javelined
Doomfist stirs chaos; he's fine the way he is.
Amazing video like always
i agree, ive never played ow1, but ow2 doomfist seems really tedious to get kills with, i'd MUCH rather a glass cannon than someone with a lot of survivability but not a lot of kill potential
edit: YOOOOO ROR2 IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE GAMES I HAVE 340 HOURS ON IT ON STEAM!!!!!
Amazing vid!
Keep it up!
yo whats good my mans. hope you doing well. and btw im intrested like whats that game in the end
Doomfist is one of those characters that I’d love to play and a backstory/place in the lore that I really like but I never play him and have never learned to.
Intro was absolute 🔥
great video but one question why blight acrid?
That intro was sick!
Honestly I do play doom as a brawler and that's what I wish he was your not alone in this
You can kinda do it with his block and punch which I thought was a great step forward
And you can sit on a choke punch them back and keep them back with empowered punches to launch a team back but he's still more mobility focused so he doesn't really end up being able to sustain this for too long
Man like Doomfist is my favourite character in overwatch both in lore and the game like have you heard his speeches in his trailer like bro had me STANDING UP every time I heard this man talk but I hate how Blizzard is doing him so dirty like he is so underpowered. He needs buffs. the only way for him to be good is if you play him 24/7 so I really want blizzard to buff him.
my boi bastion needs some love
I watched your video's for a while and i thought you had like 200k subscribers or smt I just realized you only have 10k how are you not famous already that's very high quality content tbh
the border looks cool imo
The next vid is titanfall 2?
Big w tf2 is one of my fav games
Btw I like the borders they look cool
You should do the brigg video because you can farm double the views! Especially if it will change soon, hop on the hype train to get this underrated channel up there!
i imagine you’re doing all the characters in this series cannot wait for roadhog🙏
Yah, I love the idea of just throwing hands too.. at least we got Ram XD
i knew this video was coming
holy shit ror2 footage epic
also although I prefer the mobility style Doom i really do feel you with how Doom's design doesn't fit his gameplay, which is a similar issue to Brig.
you must sleeped for 9 hours this morning you sounds so excited then usual
Honestly the comments on the last video helped me alot. I just got a flat buff because how cool this community is.
@@Giovanni-A thats nice to hear i recommend taking a bit of a break dont over work yourself
towards the end of my ow1 career all i was doing was playing Doomfist on FFA. honestly thought he was one of the coolest FPS characters alongside Genji. had a huge blast and so far i haven’t had nearly the same amount of fun on tank Doomfist.
Doom is the only reason I haven’t completely dropped this game
I didn't really touch doomfist back in overwatch 1, straight up because I agree with you: I felt like he was supposed to be balls to the walls, brawler, big punch guy thats supposed to not give a shit about taking damage. If you played him like that in ow1, you'd likely be throwing. I also hated how a random doomfist could fly one me from nowhere just cuz he was abusing a broken system in the game, 100-0 me and then get away with it. His voicelines, his personality, his appearence doesn't scream :''One kill then scramble or die, its worth anyways''.
In ow2 I was instantly attracted to tankfist:decent movement, decent tankiness but, for the most part, not enough damage imo. I started playing him just AFTER his big nerfs in s2, and I had fun while it lasted, but everything became so...generic, making me feel like a punchbot even when I was doing my best to make smart moves, get kills and live. Doomfist is THE tank of his team, and he cant directly protect his team, so his best option is to create chaos on the opposing team's end, but if he does such little damage (that sometimes fails to appear, because of course doomfist is still the most bugges hero in the entire game) then he's not a treath, he's not a tank...he's just there.
I quit ow2 like 1-2 weeks ago because I don't find it fun anymore. I hate the monetization, I despise how slow they are with balancing and how questionable their decisions are, but what made me truly leave, is the fact I felt they didnt give a shit about doom. Maybe I am just too bad to make doom work, but most everybody that actually plays a lot of doom I know have said that doomfist is very weak unless you're a master at him.
Thank you for an amazing video! Was looking forward to your video on doomfist!
Please post whatever videos you want, whenever you want. It's clear you care, and you're clearly hard at work for your channel, and to me that's all that matters. Its very rare to see a youtuber to respectful toward's his community's opinion!
Keep it up, Giovanni!
P.S.:Pokemon videos when?
"but what made me truly leave, is the fact I felt they didnt give a shit about doom."
lmfao bro its always been like that
not really but yeah I've been starting to realize ow2 isn't great at all and I only enjoyed it at first cause it was new, it's just worse ow1 now :( less personality (people have said there's less aids, like no double shield and stuns, there's other kinds of aids now, one shots being rampant cause of less shields, widow, and there are still lots of stuns AND DAMAGE for the SINGULAR tank to eat up all on their own now lol)
Me when I play doom, enemy team goes
Sombra, Bastion, Orisa, Ana, Zen.
Great video, also risk of rain is hype
24 seconds in and I'm thinking "Is this the best edited doomfist video i've ever seen?". This scene 0:19 of doomfist charging his fist in the dark into the punch montage was sooooo clean!
How to fix doom: passive lightning bolts that hit players in 10-15yrds around him (2 charges generated per punch?)& gives shield hp so he can be all in and more reliable in his duels
Doomfist fells like playing demoknigth tf2
Was waiting for doomfist for a while. He is a very fun character but the switch between combos and brawling to extreme single target focus because of his lack of damage is a bit weird. He now probably the most mobile hero to play, the new seismic slam really helps with his kit. I think a good change were to be adding his uppercut back and binding it to the reload button (because he doesn’t need to reload). It would be a nice mix between his brawly combos I ow1 and high mobility ow2.
Also, PLS PLS PLS release that titanfall 2 video as soon as possible, it is my favourite game of all time and pls make a review of it.
See you on the frontier pilot.
ITS HERE
Tried doom recently and i know exactly what you mean, i was thoroughly underwhelmed.
I like the topic you brought up about characters playing like how they should be played instead of the way they are actually played. Brig is the #1 character for this issue. She looks, feels, and has the kit to be played like mini rein but a support character. Instead of playing her like a close quarters support by being with her tank like lucio that’s not the viable way to play her. The viable way to play her is like a back line support with a shield. Even tho I’ve come to actually like this sort of playstyle as it’s a nice comfort pick for when you’re playing poorly on Ana or zen. I still can’t help but hurt that she’s being played the wrong way. I hope we get a support character that keeps the essence of how to actually play brig while also getting a rework for brig that encapsulates how she should be played.
This is 100% accurate. As a Doom main from OW 1 I can NOT for the LIFE OF ME play doom like the Doom mains in OW2. It's insane what Doom mains in the new game can do. They're so Oppressive when they're good. But in OW 1 I was capable of doing that without worrying about anyone throwing bullets into my face because by the time they put bullets on me I uppercut them into the air and they're getting launched into a wall afterwards
Nah fr having to relearn my main was such a L and all the slam and uppercut techs I learned are now useless lmao. I'm good with him in Ow2 again but it just sucks knowing how fun and dynamic he was in Ow1. I miss the combos, the rollouts the bouncing off walls and coming from unexpected angles and actually having a use for meteor striking people.
@@miklestevens2797 yeah, doom is the only reason I stayed playing ow and taking him away feels like blizzard stole my game from me
i gotta say that tracer was fucking goated with the pulse
Thanks for the vid again man. You're not the only one who thinks same about Doomfist, I see a guy with huge metal fist = I want to punch people in the face hard and not flying around the map. And about new dps video... maybe Reaper guy😅?
I can't wait to see what you thought about titanfall and its campaign. I recently played through it a couple months ago and I loved it so much. I hope you feel the same
I miss the old doom kit.
im trying to learn doom rn and i learned how toxic people can be. it was a unranked match and my mei kept telling me to switch. i was on a 14 kill streak and just died. they were 6-12.
Bro's editing is built different
I hear that music, Pledge of Demon - Yakuza 0
Tbh Every time I played doom fist they run orisa sombra
As a 400 hour doomfist in just overwatch 2 so far, he is leagues above what he used to be. Doom is the premiere when it comes to being a scary tank. Imagine making a character who can counter every ability save for sleep, nade or suzu. His level of disruption is unmatched. I was a hanzo and zarya player in ow1. I cannot get enough of the faculty oozing from doom at all times. As a crackedfist, nobody can counter you. Nobody. Sadly people play him like his older counterpart or a Winston. Unrealized potential is the saddest of mans vicissitude.
lmao I just want old doom back yada yada yeah he's fine but I just want old doom back lol
@@bambampewpew32 if ifs and buts were candy and nuts. All well and good but it was obvious doom was lackluster as dps in OW and they couldnt remove him from the catalog so they revamped his realized potential. Tank makes much more sense and his mobility is far better now. Old doom was just not as fun. This is a fact.
@@dreddem never played old doom but he does look a lot more fun tbh. New doom feels underwhelming 70% of the time. However I fully agree with your other points.
@@Smallahz old doom was out of place and you had to work much harder to excuse picking him vs easier value dps. I miss him too♥💯. However doom is a new character in theory and should be treated like one. I see to many people failing their best getsqueakedon ego throwing impersonation because youtube. when he is much more self sufficient and steadfast in one. His rework was truly a thing of beauty, idek how blizzard managed it. Cant wait til i see more of my little doom babies sprout.
_I really really really like seeing people who are good at doomfist play doomfist. I never experiencie Doomfist ow1, but I LOVE doom from ow2. He has power, but only if you, the player, put it to use. I don't know how to put it to use, because that's not what I do, but when I see good Doom players play they dominate the battlefield. His abilities are not very good alone, but you can combine them and cancel them a lot more than any other hero. When you kill someone as Doom, you have earned it. You became, even so slightly, a strong and intelligent tactician, just like him. You have the power to win every game, but only if you put it to use. That, for me, is the Doomfist fantasy. Knocking back the hole team alone, predicting someone with his ult, appear from nowhere and just burst someone not because your fist oneshoots, but because you punch someone against a wall so you can quickly two tap them in the head. That's what a "strong and intelligent tactician" should look like in my eyes, not just pure force but a carefully constructed plan crafted in the moment of action, using your little abilities to make a HUGE impact._
Doom Mains after reading the title: everyone liked that.
I want a character that FEELS powerful and satisfying while being able to flow super good with badass looks and a badass voice...
I hoped doom would be that guy, i play doom because i still love him but if i want the tingly feel of badassery and power i play heroes like ramattra... doom looks like he could solo a skyscraper where all he needs is one punch, but He Feels like a bullet train that hits like a wet d¡ldo with the voice of a diabolic angel
I want to immerse myself in the world and characters....
Doom was never tanky enough to be a brawler. The movement techs added speed and suprise to the glass canon. This made him far more survivable and versatile but he ended up being a cc assasin.
I want Giovanni’s opinion about Winton
Yakuza 0 boss music intro?👀
When my Ana stands alone on the most exposed balcony, in front of attacker's spawn, and from in there I hear a chocolatey voice going "K! O! K! O! Fine! Hot Cocoa!" You better believe it's gonna be a rough time.
all i see is a doom on a one way ticket to snoozeville 😴
Never played OW1 so OW2 doom is the only one I know season 1 even tho he was weak I loved him so much and getting value was pain but when it happened it was so satisfying season 2 buffs happy then nerfs but even then I still enjoyed him I got to plat with him to get his gold fist (although now I kinda wanna get Reinhardts hammer pls help me) but doom is so satisfying even when orisa tells me I’m not allowed to have fun
Wait what’s the game at the end
While I’ve found equal success with doom in comparison to his old moveset after PvE was cancelled the only thing that could bring me back is if they brought back OG Doom
ONE DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM
Goodbye Jeff :(
I play doom not cause the big fist is cool I play doom cause the disrespect when I kill people with the small fist instead of the big fist
Also I probably like doom so much cause I did play I tiny tiny tiny bit of overwatch one however I never played doomfist when I played new doomfist it wasn’t a big change since it didn’t play the old one which made me love doom so much
Finally I love movement I can’t play a slow character I can’t play sigma , I can’t play bastion , I can’t play zarya (zen and ana are exceptions) but I do see your point doom is see as a man who can destroy anything yet his pucnh use to do less damage then the small punch but movement is key for me (don’t trust me I am bad at overwatch I just love playing doom)
Small fist is really important for Doomfist, surprisingly. Not even for the shotgun, just punching with it.
Kuze theme 🔥
doomfist just hits different.. skill cap is high and so rewarding to play
not really rewarding, you can get the same value with less effort as other dive tanks
@@nooptiui emphasis on less effort lmao
@@nna1u39only rewarding when everything with Doom actually works in a match which isn't very often
AND THEY SAY
I just miss dps Doom
Im a week old player of ow2 & I love doom fist. You can dominate a whole team by pre punching a corner & diving back to healers. Sombra is a hard counter, nothing more annoying than relying on your power ups & you can't use any. Brig is similar & pairs well with doomy.
The biggest lesson of playing Overwatch on a higher level than Bronze is to never take damage if you are not taking space.
Wait wait wait! You play risk of rain 2??? When is that content coming out!!
That game. Has and still dose....steal many hours of my life......
Same, even though it’s taken so many hours of my life I’m still so bad at it
Doomfist was my second most played character in ow1. He was my favorite character to play by far because of everything u said, but the ow2 doom feels too weak, so I literally haven't touched him since. I get that his new movement is cool and fun but I lowkey miss the punchy character that would one tap half the game
i dont like the borders, but gud vid as always !
everytime i play doom the other team always wants to counter me really takes the the fun outta doom
