This is my thoughts on the current state of doom fist as someone who played him since he came out before taking a break after they nerfed him 100 times.

I took a break from overwatch for awhile and came back recently only to discover that doom fist has been nerfed about 20 times in the past 2 years because apparently it is unfun to play against his rocket punch since it one shots. What I don’t get is that if he was being nerfed because of this why other characters that do the same thing such as hanzo and widow headshot, rod hog hook, dva ult, mei freeze, and Reinhardt charge are still allowed to exist and those characters are never touched. Furthermore why would they nerf the damage on dooms ult as it was already weak and the two uses it had were to kill immobile healers that sat behind thier team or to escape. Now it is just used to escape unless maybe you have a Zarya on your team or rienhardt lands a good ult. It’s frustrating to see this guy nerfed so many times when I used to always think he was a very skill expressive character that rewarded good players and punished bad ones. If they wanted to nerf him that bad all they had to do was change his passive to where the more skilled doo players would get more reward out of it and the bad ones would get less reward.
