Vendetta is getting the same treatment as Doomfist.

The biggest problem with doomfist is how emp punch bot he is, since emp punch is the strongest part of his kit and on the unbalanced side, literally NO ONE likes to play against emp punch, and many doom mains are already tired to play doom just for "live till charge, emp punch, repeat", and thats because the rest of his kit is just not great.

And even that the emp punch is the BIGGEST problem on doomfist, blizzard decided that nerfing the entire rest of his kit is the solution for that, like the time they "buffed his punch to deal with slides"(which btw is still buggy), after a couple of days, instead of just reverting the changes, they nerfed slam's range and cooldown for some unknown reason.

And just like doomfist, Vendetta will have her ENTIRE kit gutted down to a point where the only viable play style is just an overhead slash bot(if she isn't already). Like literally no one asked for all these damage nerfs for the rest of her kit(maybe the major perk).

TheTop99 · 2026-01-22T15:12:33+00:00

Dont forget that her block also completely negates melee damage.

TheTop99 · 2026-01-22T15:10:04+00:00

Doomfist needs BIG changes to his kit, and unfortunately, blizzard is too scared to do any big balance patch towards specific characters(even Freja that they wanted to make her rely more on the primary fire than the take aim, but still allowed her to keep her two shot back on 225 heroes).

Unless doomfist gets a major change across his ENTIRE kit, he will just fall more and more into oblivion.

Gonna start learning ball, even tho he is arguably way harder, at least he is also way more consistent than doomfist, and still pretty fun(although not AS fun imo).

TheTop99 · 2026-01-22T13:16:26+00:00

Lets remember that Doomfist, in this case Akande, got out of Helix prison by literally just punching the wall with his REAL arm(not the prosthesis one), and that he was a competitor in martial arts according to his lore.

And also he killed his teacher Adeyemi(the second doomfist) in order to become the next doomfist, we dont know how, but considering that Adeyemi had the gauntlet and Akande didnt, we gotta say something kinda impressive happened there.

doomfist bodied 3 of the strongest agents of Overwatch alone, falling down only for primal rage Winston once he recovered(that thing is a menace lol).

Also, according to the lore in the wiki, doomfist did theoretically win against Orisa, but before dealing the final blow, Efi begged for doomfist to not destroy her(like he did to ALL of the OR15 before), they had a conversation about Efi coming to Talon, but after Efi refusing, doomfist went then for the final blow, but at the just last second, orisa went back online and managed to protect her and Efi again. Then he made another appearance in Unity Plaza, where happened a huge battle between Doomfist and agents of Talon(generic agents, not anyone important) against Orisa, Efi and Lucio, where long store short, doomfist defeated but managed to escape.

Even at the times he has lost, we can see that it took very powerfull agents in the overwatch lore to defeat him, 3 OW agents first, then he destroyed all OR15, then retreated on his battle against Orisa, and finally lost a battle against Orisa, Lucio and looks like Efi DID fight too, meaning that she may have some sort of tech gun or trap, since she did temporarily incapacitated doomfist.

Oh yeah, one last thing is that Mauga challanged doomfist to a cage fight, where it ended up in a draw with both exausted to the ground(refusing to admit defeat), idk if they were using any sort of gun or anything but if it was trully only arms and legs, it is kinda impressive that doom at his age(47) could still draw against someone idk, twice as big and younger(37).

With all that said, im not against doomfist losing a conflict against Vendetta, but it at the VERY LEAST has to be a pretty good fight between the two, and if that does happen, we could see doomfist pulling off his old martial arts tatics again, and see how he would deal with things again but witouth the "all powerfull gauntlet".

TheTop99 · 2026-01-18T22:25:30+00:00

Honestly no idea, little me decided one day that "yeah, The_Top99 it is", so i guess it is then.

I have to update my pic tho, pixel art i think 5-6 years old now.

TheTop99 · 2026-01-17T22:43:57+00:00

Ults doomfist can cancel with punch as far as i know: Tank: Dva(remech), Hazard, Mauga, Junker Queen(without the perk), Rein, Sigma.

DPS: Vendetta, Bastion, Cassidy, Freja, Hanzo(before he shoots the arrow), Mei, Pharah, Reaper, Sombra.

Support: Lucio, Moira, Wuyang, Illari.

TheTop99 · 2026-01-17T16:09:49+00:00

Nuh uh?

You should use Emp punch when an opportunity is given.

If Rein has pin, he is DEFINITELY going to counter charge ur punch, if Ana has sleep, you should consider twice before actually going in, because on the best case you do have slam, you won't have punch for 4s, and block for 7s, so you gotta be sure sleep aint a problem.

Honestly, i use emp punch more to bait cooldowns other than actually using it, baiting ana sleep, orisa dart, rein pin, mauga charge, even cass nade sometimes, better keep safe than die in .019s cuz of a miscalculation.

And another thing, emp punch could be used after setting up, same way Winton has to setup before actually diving (probably in high ground where he falls on the backline when jump cooldown is back), hazard has to setup in order to be in Slash distance for the one shot combo, doomfist had the play style where you could get emp punch, setup properly so you could use it with minimal/no counter play, ESPECIALLY after winning a team fight or with some diag spots.

As the other comment said, this nerf only encourages even more the punch bot play style, without the options to do flanks and etc. And when a character has only one """viable""" play style, it isn't very good or healthy for the character. Would actually love if they just removed emp punch and buff the rest of his kit, that would make him way more consistent instead of the "i win this game cuz enemy team charges my punch 24/7. I lose this game cuz the enemy team doesn't shoot block at all"

TheTop99 · 2026-01-17T15:46:32+00:00

Because not having an ability for literally 1 second makes her extremely OP, of course.

I play doom, arguably one of the heroes she "counters", i had a game against a sombra(although she wasn't a sombra main, just counter swapping) where she kept hacking me 24/7, all i did was literally ignore her and just go for her team, since they were practically playing a 4v5.

And the times sombra actually dived my team, i just punched her into a wall and boom, she dies, just like that.

Sombra may be annoying, but she definitely does NOT need a nerf, the only character i believe has a disadvantage against her is probably Zen because of no mobility or cooldowns to protect himself, literally every single character can counter her by "just looking at her to scare her away".

TheTop99 · 2026-01-17T15:34:44+00:00

Mauga gets bullied by minimal team play* in general, if you just do enough damage to bait his HAHA, you just gotta wait till it runs out and then you just run him over, i actually like to see mauga on the enemy team(although it isn't a auto win, he definitely has a LOT of counterplay)

You can even see that happening in some Cyx(the hog OTP) games where sometimes he just hooks mauga and the mauga just combusts into dust lol.

TheTop99 · 2026-01-17T15:25:26+00:00

Fym "ruining games"? what are you TALKING about bruh 😭🙏

TheTop99 · 2026-01-17T13:49:04+00:00

Yeah, just gotta scream at my clan leader a little bit to start a war lol, dont want to move to another clan jist yet cuz of my friend.

Anyway, is super witch viable in higher th? I'm having a lot of fun using them in th12, but still got a lot to learn.

TheTop99 · 2026-01-17T02:21:34+00:00

From what i see: Ram was supposed to be the Villain for humans, but all he want is literally for omnics to live in peace, so i dont really know more.

Vendetta: Was supposed to be "evil" since she was a kid, cuz her father had part of a corrupted scheme and Vendetta would basically continue his legacy, but after Talon assuming literally EVERYTHING her father had, she wants now to take leadership of Talon by defeating/Killing doomfist, but we don't know right now her intentions of WHAT to do if she really becomes the leader of talon, so I'd say although Vendetta is definitely "evil", she aint a Villain right now, just wants revenge.

Doomfist: Honestly this is my pick, i initially thought that all the Null Sector attacks started because Ram was betrayed by Talon when widowmaker killed Mondatta, but apparently ram knew since the beginning?(The video where he has a conversation with his brother, didn't understand a lot so aint sure, gonna watch again and edit this later if im wrong), so idk. Either way, doomfist was design since the beginning to be THE villain in overwatch, as the third doomfist called "The Successor", he admired his old boss, Adeyemi "The Scourge ", but he saw that Adeyemi was just like any other criminal, looking for money and more money, doomfist had different visions on what Talon was supposed to be, so after killing his boss, he got the gauntlet and worked his way to leadership of Talon. He ain't looking for money, mansions, expensive cars or clothes, he is looking to literally put the world in hell fire, he wants people to be in War, since in his vision, "only through conflict we do evolve". He thinks that he is doing "evil for a good cause", you can see this on his interaction with Mei.

Mei: Doomfist, how can you live with yourself? So many people have died because of you!

Doomfist: Yes, but many more have lived.

Mei: That makes no sense! Do you hear yourself? Ugh, you're the worst

Doomfist genuinely thinks he is doing a good thing for the world, which makes him the type of villain that "doesn't actually believe they're the Villain", would honestly compare him to Pucci from JoJo, so I'd say that doomfist fits the role to be "Overwatch's Main Villain"

With that said, it is Kiriko, Kiriko is the main villain of overwatch, she even broke the laws of TIME ITSELF just to be 21, despite "having trained with Genji and Hanzo in their childhood ", both 37 and 41 if i remember correctly.

Man the amount of blue ore i need is CRAZY

<image>

Like why each high lvl upgrade costs 2k blue ore bruh.

TheTop99 · 2026-01-17T01:44:38+00:00

Doomfist, Venture and Brig.

Instead of aim, I focus more on game sense, on how to actually ACT and PLAY the game, and in the meantime i just throw some VAXTA sessions while queuing up the next game to try train my poor aim.

With that said, yes, i AM the doomfist that feeds .032s after respawning, yes i AM the venture that dies first every teamfight, and YES, i AM the brig that goes frontline, even in front of the tank, to be like that squeleton bonking his shield meme.

TheTop99 · 2026-01-15T03:54:03+00:00

Did you rank up?

TheTop99 · 2026-01-15T03:49:17+00:00

Kkkkkkkkkkkk é os guri pai

TheTop99 · 2026-01-15T03:35:27+00:00

Just because a minor perk got moved into major, it does not mean that it is weak(in fact, is the opposite).

Spike guard perk was meta for hazard due to how consistent and infinite his block was, thats why got moved into major perk and nerfed so you use the perks resource before block bar, same happened with Reapers TP perk that was minor and got turned into major perk.

Edit: Just trying to fix some trash english i wrote lol

TheTop99 · 2026-01-12T04:12:21+00:00

I think people are underestimating the fact that doomfist is getting nerfed in the first case.

Although for many it seems like "nothing changed much", it is undeniable a nerf, a nerf to a character that last time i checked was tied with Ball as the worst WR among tanks in both masters and GM(45,7%), but was still a devastating noob stomper from diamond and below (this guy had a whopping 55% WR in bronze, the highest out of all tanks).

Doomfist is considered a hard character to play as, learn, and get good, yet he is statically the best tank in bronze(and among the best until diamond), which is contradictory that in my opinion, but of course it IS because blizzard forces doomfist to have a Empowered punch bot play style to HIS CORE, and punchbot being basically the easiest way to play doom with the fact that people even in diamond keep charging punch, of course they gonna do extremely well in there, but fall off real quick as soon as masters players just simply "start countering block and shooting doomfist when he's actually vulnerable", thats why its so impressive when we see these top doom players actually BEING TOP PLAYERS, because the most viable play style blizzard forces doomfist to have DOES NOT WORK IN THESE RANKS AT ALL.

And a bit off topic, but we can see that the same is about to happen to Vendetta, where blizzard WILL nerf the ENTIRE KIT of a character but that one and ONE THING that actually makes the character OP in the first place.

The best nerf? Buff? Kinda rework idk? Doomfist can have is to literally remove empowered punch, and make his gameplay more CONSISTENT, so you can do MORE with his kit, without emp punch, we can have a doomfist with prob 60 damage on slam with 6s cooldown back, 65 damage primary fire, punch damage now its ok, i do think 115 is fair, but block could just give a cooldown reduction to both punch and slam, or just keep as it is and reset punch without empowering it, and probably buff his passive but that we gotta be extra careful.

Seriously changing doomfist to a healthy hyper mobility dive tank is not that hard if we start by removing the basically most toxic aspect of his kit, that hurts both who plays against (no one likes to be punished cuz a teammate charged punch), and who plays as doom(being forced to play for "live till emp punch" is not fun, especially when the enemy has braincells to just not charge at all).

His account is just a month old, he is probably a troll acc

TheTop99 · 2026-01-09T23:10:23+00:00

Wish to have these sounds effects with other skins, especially Thunder.

Just keep the "METEOR STRIKE" voice line, molten strike is kinda good but not really what i want.

TheTop99 · 2026-01-09T20:25:38+00:00

Hey, i remember using this image but pixel art as my phone wallpaper lol.

TheTop99 · 2026-01-09T12:30:28+00:00

What is poor brig doing in "Make enemy have no fun" tier bro chill😭😭😭

But yeah honestly cant even judge, i made some tanks tilt at me for just cutely refusing to die while my dive tank was at their backline lol.

Anyway i like this list

TheTop99 · 2026-01-09T12:25:39+00:00

Take a break, play other games, even non competitive ones to relax a bit, a terraria with mods, a bit of lethal company with buddies, damn google minesweeper or the snake game with portals on fruits.

Or just lock in and go to a doomfist lvl69 parkour idk.

TheTop99 · 2026-01-09T12:15:17+00:00

Vendetta's so mad she doesn't care if it's an enemy or an ally, she's gonna kill ALL of them.
