is there a preview of just Junkrat as a hero? I saw the video with his different skins, but no intro video. Originally Posted by Nerraw

We need a Troll skin for Junkrat. It is extremely fitting with his posture. Alchemic bombs and Goblin rockets.

He looks like a great hero, be interesting to see if rocket ride is worth the time you spend off the field, it looks like it kills you but the spotlight said it didn't.
Very surprised he is not a specialist, but the kit is overall pretty much what I expected and can't wait to play him.

Wasn't interested in him before(I don't oppose OW heroes in HotS, but Blizzard seem bound and fucking determined to add the heroes I have the LEAST interest in, Ana, Lucio, Zarya, and now Junkrat...throw in Sombra and they'll have managed to add my entire top 5 least favorites list), and this didn't win me over. Just doesn't seem like my kinda playstyle.

Seems like he does some serious damage on PTR and his waveclear is pretty dank.

Technically it doesn't kill you, but you are "dead" for few seconds and then have to ride back. Kind of like dying on Diablo with max souls without giving experience to enemy team and having super fast mount to get back into battle. Originally Posted by Tenris

Since there's no Junkrat presskit available yet, I'll have to transcribe ability and talent text by hand from the game itself. Meaning it'll take a bit before I get the OP updated with those.

Furthermore, if a character has never expressed interest in any gender, then its not proof they are straight. straight people are not the default

The radius is too small, moves at walk speed and takes too long to land that hitting enemy team with it is pretty difficult. Originally Posted by tristannarutofan

Or you can use it as "suicide" siege, you come to a keep, drop everything and "kill" yourself with it and repeat because it will be ready for the next round with 20 sec cooldown.Last edited by RH92; 2017-10-10 at 06:22 AM.
