Quick tip for those who don't know, you can pull the knife back while going thru the animation of carnage. So you can start using carnage and during that windup you can pull your target and give them little time to react to the swing.
Here’s the extra thing about the zen thing. While he’s ulting and you counter with yours, he’s essentially out of the fight for a few seconds making it basically a 4V5
The idea was to separate them into general tips for each ability like this: 1 Kiriko Tip: ua-cam.com/video/TCb9FHa-dyw/v-deo.html 3 Tips for every Kiriko Ability: ua-cam.com/video/-VaXKr4_V2s/v-deo.html
@@KarQ i like your prespective but i think if you want it to work you should consider doing 2 more things: 1-add 1 general tip for the hero in the video of 1 tip vs every hero tip for one of hid abiltiys or tip to how to get value out of the hero. 2- record both of the videos at the same time and uplode the other one a few days after you uploded the first one so it will still be relavent
I agree. For example, with JQ in very close brawl combat, it is better to use melee knife to get heal or shoot gun melee ? Maybe a detail but I watch a GM1 player mainly using knife in close range. Just wondering.
Amazing video! Learned quite a lot from it, especially against the tank matchups! One general tip I recently learned: if you crouch when you pull your knife target, they'll land behind you. Can be useful when you pull them into your team and you can body-block them.
JQ is sooo fun to play. My go-to tanks in brawly/rush maps and in JQ mirrors. Her shout just gives you as a player so much adrenaline that makes you want to go ham!!!
I've been maining JQ with a above 50% win rate. This was a very good video and very accurate and you can see how strong she can be. Definitely slept on hero because she requires high skill to pull off her knife throws but if you consistently land them it means you are countering quite a lot of heroes in the game.
In my experience as a Gold-level Queen main, Queen's high damage output can even shred through pocketed tanks if you can live long enough. Fight them much like the advice for Sigma and Hog, but be ready to run if things go south. Shout is really good as a disengagement tool, especially if you can bait an enemy around a corner and into a facefull of axe. As a general tip, punch and axe at anyone foolish enough to hide behind a barrier, but don't stay engaged if you aren't ready.
Honestly I think her survivability and cooldowns are fine but I think she needs a bit more damage. I know it could just be because I'm not that great but I feel like JQ does with headshots the same damage tanks like Sig, Orisa, and Hog do normally
One thing I wanna say is Lucio/Mercy is actually REALLY common at least in lower ranks. Even in masters I've seen that combo pretty frequently. When I'm not playing support I try to ask for a swap because it is PAINFUL to play with arguably the worst support duo in the game as a tank. This seems to be one of the things the general playerbase didn't pick up on sadly. Like I feel MOST people know Lucio/Zen is bad but a good amount of folks still think Lucio/Mercy is good lol.
@@squid2039 Any other comp other than lucio zen. Who should swap? It depends on what your team mates are playing but regardless it should still never be played.
@@squid2039 Depends on your comp. If your team is running a brawl style comp then the Mercy should switch (usually to a Kiriko but Moira can also work). If your team is running a poke comp then the Lucio should switch.
not sure if this is a tip but against reinheardt or really any hero’s like him is to get close and personal. yes he has a hammer but you can heal and he can’t, and when he puts up his shield try to dance through it, and melees go through shields i think, so it’s a great way to get damage in
4 more things the devs should have done with JQ. 1. Increase the hit box of blade when recall 2. Shout can be used simultaneously with knife, axe and ult (like orisa gold) 3. Increase the range of axe 4. Shout cooldown immediately starts right after the ability is activated and not after it ends. Increase the cooldown by 1 or 2 and remove the health gain for teammates. She would still be fine with these buffs because there are many ways to counter JQ like CC, long range poke and mobility Also JQ is still bad even with the axe buff. You will only hit 1 person 90% of the match with the axe and the argument about the axe being strong is the same as saying widow and hanzo are S tier and all you need to hit the head consistently which in reality won't happen and is redundant. JQ has gotten better but she still isn't strong. She is more balance right now and not bad anymore
Balanced is the goal, there are a thousand ways to make her op. 1. seems quite big already 2. That'd be nice 3. I wouldn't complain but doen't seem necessary 4. removing health from shout would reduce her ability to peel for teammates and having it on a 9s cooldown would make her very (and maybe too) hard to kill Even if you only hit one person carnage already reduces it's cooldown by 2s. Junkerqueen is mostly hindered by hog and orisa being strong and good against her, other then that? She's fine
Ramattra next! I’m pretty good with ram and he’s honestly the 3rd best tank right now and wait until the roadhog changes to see where he stands in the meta If they nerf orisa and hog he’ll definitely be the best tank
Here's an actual tip try your best to hit people when comes back to you, this will hit enemies and give you a slight advantage with more healing and note that her Melee while she has her knoife with her can also wound
Heres another tip always read hero details also just go in there abuse the wound healing and somehow still lose potg to someone who didn't do anything the whole match

Quick tip for those who don't know, you can pull the knife back while going thru the animation of carnage. So you can start using carnage and during that windup you can pull your target and give them little time to react to the swing.
Holy moly
And, if you missed the knife you can carnage and pull it back when you're close to them to get some damage when the knife returns
Damn I didn’t know that thanks
Found this out by accident cause I’m a spaz and was mashing buttons lol
I noticed pretty early. It feels so satisfying to hit a carnage using the knife.
gotta be one of most articulate and concise hero tips you've hosted. 10/10
gotta be one of most articulate and concise comments you've sent
Junker Queen is the most fun tank in Overwatch 2 and I'm very glad she's getting more playable because season 1 was painful!
Blizzard balancing is fun = weak
She's still pretty bad unfortunately, the buff was a nothingburger
Careful they might revert ur buffs after 9 days like they did my character :(
@@Finneagan I'd say it's mostly because other tanks are overturned; like Orisa currently is a hard matchup

The reaper tip when he's ulting felt like l4d2 crowning the witch lmao
Junker Queen is so fun, def wanna play her more. Thanks
0:16., that Knife was nasty af though ngl
I like how all the JQ tips are "land a difficult skillshot" compared to Orisa and Hog, all they have to do is "press button to gain value"
I dont play alot of JQ but using knife to bait cooldowns and creating counter engagements with ult has so much value! great vid.
The kiriko tip had that five man ult, but they recharged the new ult almost instantly.
9:46 : "they won't have a Lucio since Mercy & Lucio duo is extremely uncommon"
Let me introduce you : my elo
This JQ tips video is really good! Really easy to follow, concise, clear, and the supporting visuals are really accurate. Great work, KarQ and Akash!
JUNK META INCOMINGGG
Gotta be honest, I just play with Junker Queen since I got the mythic skin but I have been doing fine so far!
JQ is sooo fun to play. My go-to tanks in brawly/rush maps and in JQ mirrors. Her shout just gives you as a player so much adrenaline that makes you want to go ham!!!
I've been maining JQ with a above 50% win rate. This was a very good video and very accurate and you can see how strong she can be. Definitely slept on hero because she requires high skill to pull off her knife throws but if you consistently land them it means you are countering quite a lot of heroes in the game.
JQ played correctly can really be a menace, too bad most people just throw games trying to play her as a.. budget Hog I guess?
In my experience as a Gold-level Queen main, Queen's high damage output can even shred through pocketed tanks if you can live long enough. Fight them much like the advice for Sigma and Hog, but be ready to run if things go south.
Shout is really good as a disengagement tool, especially if you can bait an enemy around a corner and into a facefull of axe.
As a general tip, punch and axe at anyone foolish enough to hide behind a barrier, but don't stay engaged if you aren't ready.
So basically for everyone it’s “try landing a knife” 😂 or just solo ult them
2:55 if you ignore Rein and go into his back line, what is stopping him from just turning around and pinning you?
Junkerqueen is about how strong a tank should be: effective but has counterplay.
Honestly I think her survivability and cooldowns are fine but I think she needs a bit more damage. I know it could just be because I'm not that great but I feel like JQ does with headshots the same damage tanks like Sig, Orisa, and Hog do normally
@@draconocor
That's what I'm saying. If we regard Junkerqueen as what a tank's strength _should_ be, other tanks are over tuned.
I love playing JQ, but whenever I do, and even when I'm getting more value than my team, I always hear "Hey can we get an Orisa?"
Important tip for roadhog: DO NOT RAMPAGE INTO HIS WHOLE HOG
Wow! Akash! So Informative !!! Insane!! I will DEFINITELY be USING these TIPS and TRICKS in my NEXT junker Queen Game.
bro who talks like that
ok nvm read your name

Great tips, hadn't thought of some of these outplays
Junker queen also reloads her shots pretty early in the animation, so canceling it with melee is a good idea especially with her knife
this is great stuff ngl first place ive seen someone know about the bob ult angle
karq videos so clean. I wish the guests gave karqs tips on how not to be bad at OW though.
Probably one of the best tips videos yet.
how come not mightyy doing it. he has been the number 1 junkerqueen on ladder
I love the tip against reaper. Be a gigachad step in and double head shot! Lol
Wow goood tips. Just play and use ur abilities. Before this video I thought I need to just shoot at heroes and didn’t know I can use abilities.
Where did the general tip go? I really miss having that one general tip that’s given in general to play better as a whole.
not sure if this is a tip but against reinheardt or really any hero’s like him is to get close and personal. yes he has a hammer but you can heal and he can’t, and when he puts up his shield try to dance through it, and melees go through shields i think, so it’s a great way to get damage in
anyone remember when these videos were tips and not "Here is how you play the matchup in every detail"? I just think its funny to see the difference
Another little tip with mei just try to throw your knife on top its easier if youre on highground but it works too on ground
Hey KarQ
I tested the JQ buffs in the range and noticed that numbers are actually incorrect from the bleed.
Did you also notice it?
1:44 Now that's something I haven't seen in a long time.
I don't even play Junker Queen, still found it very interesting.
No longer play Overwatch, but still enjoy these videos
FINALLY. just one tricked her to diamond and have been loving her.
Bro fr looks like Nas with glasses but really good tips!
Doesn’t the gigachad reaper contest strat not work if there’s 2-3 heroes clumped up? Im curious what the cut off point is.
4 more things the devs should have done with JQ.

my toxic trait is thinking I'd ever in a million years be able to pull off the rampage while being booped up by Bob trick
akash is a legend. he truly has like 50 account in t500 xD
Reapers ult is just a free kill
Can you still completely refresh ax cooldown on mei wall?
"leave it in"
I wish Lucio mercy was uncommon on console but that seems to be the preferred heal comp of my team most games.
Well what he said was straight up untrue. It's a BAD comp but even in GM games that shit crops up way too much.
this was great, cant wait to try these, probably gonna forget so might write them down lol
… just watch the video again
When akash at 3:05said, The best time to use your knife is when he is vaping and retreating, during the road h
Ramattra next!
I’m pretty good with ram and he’s honestly the 3rd best tank right now and wait until the roadhog changes to see where he stands in the meta
If they nerf orisa and hog he’ll definitely be the best tank
my best junker queen tip is to swap off
Here's an actual tip try your best to hit people when comes back to you, this will hit enemies and give you a slight advantage with more healing and note that her Melee while she has her knoife with her can also wound
where are the general tips that were at the start
Heres another tip always read hero details also just go in there abuse the wound healing and somehow still lose potg to someone who didn't do anything the whole match
Did you use your ult than instantly gain it back? Is that a bug or custom games?
Will you reduce the cooldown of carnage if you hit bap and his lamp or does it only apply to hitting enemies?
Its hard to tell cause atm (unless they've fixed it) there is a glitch that lets u lower it by hitting breakable objects like mei's wall or railings
@@dinopower901 you don’t know what a glitch is
What is a TikTok flank Moira? Have I gotten old?
9:23
How did you get your ult back that fast?!
Thanks for the tips!
No timer needed just charge in like Leroy Jenkins and engage in ridiculously long battle between you, a random tank, and a pocket healer
I enjoy your content. I just want to request a tip to counter for each hero if that is not asking too much with giving a tip as well.
Honestly I was expecting Mightyy but this is good too.
mighty made his own 1 tip vs every hero for JQ
Excellent video, thank you both!
He kinda looks live Nav
1 tip against rein is you can knife his shield infront of him. If he drops the shield the knife falls onto him
9:20 what is that ult charge?
i had no clue jq could gigachad reaper ult lmao

I like how for brig you were in a custom lobby. No one plays her anymore lol
i love farming tanks and then targeting any squishy with sojouns railgun
did you guys see how fast he got ult again in the kiriko clip

What happened to the general tip??
She went from being a throw pick to C tier
she would get picked more often along with doom once blizzard change orisa, ram and hog

9:23 Jesus christ he got ult right after
I needed this, thanks

Make JQ’s ult able to be canceled like Reins pin
I’m surprised you didn’t feature Mightyy
Mightyy already made one 💀
pls do wrecking ball, he's such a fun character to play, but he is also very hard to play. Love your stuff, keep up the good work.

This basically an Akash video featuring karq
@9:20 he farmed a second ult while the first one is still active, HUH!!!???!
There’s always an OR with orisa. Or ignore her and go to back line.
JK is just not worth playing when the enemy team plays orisa and actually heals their tank😂
Yoooo, he did not just get his ult 3 seconds after using his ult to charge through 5 enemies omg wtf 😱
