In regards to the Mauga and Lifeweaver Grip interaction: Normally Mauga is stuck in his own Cage fight, but Life Grip doesn't only pull players out of an enemy Mauga's cage fight, It can pull a friendly Mauga out of his own cage fight.
One of my growing concerns with OW2 is the number of inconsistencies in ability interactions slowly growing over time and this seems especially with Mauga. It will fast become very difficult for new players to learn the game if heroes with similar abilities/effects each work slightly differently. I understand why they work the way they do but I imagine that this will have to be addressed at some point.
@@Scripzure there's only one other tank with unstoppable; the horse. Maybe other tanks need an unstoppable ability? (charge, piledrive, accretion, rampage)
While watching the video I felt like it was so unfair for some abilities to not do what their supposed to do just bc it's mauga idk, seems kinda unfair in some cases
@@AaelmfaoBDplays nah you don't go under, it just moves you through the barrier like you aren't there (actually practical as Mauga if you wanna chase players while keeping cage fight active!)
A funny one is to have your mei lift you up as mauga with her wall over the edge, then place the cage fight on the wall right above the environment so when the wall breaks the cage drop down pulling violently everyone trapped by it down into the abyse
Fun fact, you can charge as mauga while you ult, if you start the charge IMMEDIATELY after you activate your ult. You will still get chained, but you are charging around your cage.
There's actually a very small casting time to Mauga's overrun where he can be countercharged by a Reinhardt or stunned in general. It's very slim though
@@krisbailey8537 Okay, okay, I see what's happening here You're face to face with greatness, and it's strange You don't even know how you feel It's adorable Well, it's nice to see that humans never change
Fun Fact: If the cage fight is on high enough ground, you can jump off that high ground/platform to break the chain. The chains have a limited length and if you jump off a high place you'll hang in midair for a moment, before the chain just lets go.
you can actually escape cage with petal platform but you need a decent amount of elevation already (think rialto first point, if you petal platform from the high ground near the bridge for example it would be enough to break the chains)
I love the interaction between Orisa and Mauga because they're kinda counters to each other. Mauga counters fortify with either the Cha-Cha crit damage and/or sheer close range damage output if the orisa misuses her spin, but fortify means Orisa can just completely ignore the cage fight if she has it up. Similarly, Reaper is a counter to Mauga the same way he is for all tanks (Especially with Mauga being so massive), but Reaper gets completely neutered if he's caught in cage fight, with no tp or wraith to save himself from getting annihilated.
Also I keep hearing people say Mauga's broken. Is he too strong? Yes. Is he broken? Heck no. Yes he needs to be nerfed as the majority of characters can't survive long enough up close to have a chance, even tanks. But also he's such a bullet magnet that he can be punished very easily for over-aggressiveness. And that's ignoring Ana's Anti, which is a hard counter that basically allows the enemy team to punish mauga for existing. [Yes kiri exists but suzu has a longer cooldown than ana's nade and it's also needed to counter a multitude of other things, so if the ana's team has an ashe or something like that they can just bait out the suzu then Anti mauga and delete him.] An idea i have to balance him would be to decrease his damage against armour (perhaps gunny & chacha do 40% to 60% less damage to armour instead of the usual 30%). And also make his health/armour split 425/75 instead of 350/150, but make his Cardiac Overdrive Cleanse the Anti Affect so it's no longer a hard counter.
@@dylanholm9995Yeah, it totally would. Not like he can't still gain Overhealth while Wounded or Anti-Heal'd. I recall a DPS hero that use to be a Support that could grant a small amount of shield health, another DPS hero that could occasionally grant a very small amount of Armour and at least two current Support heroes that have Ults that grant overhealth when used. Kinda like there was a few ways to help mitigate the anti-heal effect that are now entirely gone or nerfed to the point that Ana with her Anti-Heal is almost a mandatory pick and Kiriko is the mandatory counter pick. From there it's only a matter of sleeping or killing the Enemy Ana to actually get anywhere....sigh...
wow thats some dang sleep bro. came here to comment something similar. our tankfist was able to cancel his ult, but he was point blank with mauga. your sleeps are something else bro. nice
Oh something my friend and I experienced recently. He (playing Mauga) ulted near the edge of Nepal's map and caught the enemy Pharah. She fell off the side of the map but was being held on until it eventually let her go !! She was able to use her jets after getting let go (but accidentally jetted up back into Mauga ult and got retethered). It seems the bottom side of the ult is the way to escape if you can fly!
Also you can get hooked out of it. Needs a 2 tank or the hog does it from above. So basically getting mauga out of his ult while your team is still stuck. Basically lifegriping the enemy tank. Probably only useful if you can hook him of the map.
I've got two for you that I noticed -Mauga can overrun out of cagefight if activated before or outside of the cage -Suzu allows you to walk out of the cage You're welcome
after testing with friends -suzu thing was maybe lucky timing with walking out, or suzu lets you walk out only during the first couple frames -mauga can escape his cage if another mauga cage intersecs with his
Hey, I'm colorblind and can't distinguish between the color of a enemy mauga in fire (from my gun), and it's healing skill... Are they different or it's only me? It's so difficult to know if I should continue the 1v1 without knowing the difference.... Thanks a lot!
I feel like this shows that rein charge needs adjustment. It gets stopped by everything, this gets stopped by nothing. Rein should be able to charge through some things at least.
I love how we as a community decided to call the new overwatch character mauga Edit:yes I'm aware that's what hes called in the lore doesn't take away from how fun it is!
Here's another fun fact: When you use his ultimate, there's actually a window of time where you can use Overrun after pressing the ult button. You can't escape your own cage, but you can charge and stun someone in it if you time it correctly.
Okay, so I haven't seen anyone mention it yet, the Mauga critical damage against fortified Orisa interaction got patched out not too long after this video came out so now it's the opposite case. You can still get burned by Incendiary Chaingun but Fortify now protects you from the critical damage of the Volatile Chaingun.
If anyone was curious , overrun has cc immunity meaning there is nothing in this game to stop it , except another mauga overrun, boom could have saved couple mins from the video cuz they even said it in the patch notes.
Petal platform can infect lift you out of cage fight if it is used on an elevated position that is high enough. If you get to a certian heigt the chains will break. Same works with getting low enough the chains also break, so if the cagefight is placed on a very high location you can break free of it by jumping down.
I just want to know if you use mei wall paired with petal platform and Mauga's ult if you can just create a makeshift grav by lifting players so high up they're just stuck in one place
5:35 My goodness, there's a 1 in a million chance that Mauga can get a kill by chaining an enemy to the oasis car (simultaneously killing himself in the process).
An interesting interaction I've seen is when an enemy Mauga ults, then I use my cage fight in his and break his cage, I am no longer considered in my own cage. I don't have infinite ammo, I can use overrun, and I can just leave my cage fight.
Just a thought. Can Sym from outside the cage put her teleporter into the cage? My thought is to give your allies an escape route without putting herself in danger.
Most likely, it's probable that a Reaper can TP into it too. Seem's way too bustd that Reaper can't Wraith at all in it, let alone use it to escape....completely negating the entire reason it exists:; Damage negation and a means of escape, at the cost of being incorporeal & unable to do anything but moce slightly faster. Moira's Fade is exactly the same thing as Reaper's Wraith, but faster. So, same thing. It's irritating how overtuned Mauga's kit is, he doesn't need all that CC and anti-CC. Other heroes with charges all have the same forced fallover cancel when they charge at eachother, but Not Mauga. He has to gain the Anti-CC from Orisa's Fortification and no all other counter Charges. The Mofo is just running forwards....all other Chargers are being propelled in some manner. If anything, his charge should lose to the other tanks. Brig and Bob, sure. They should lose and tie respectively with Mauga's Overrun cause they are not being literally propelled by Rockets like Doom and Rein. As a counter point, the slower/"smaller" the charger is; The less they should be affected by Orisa's Fortification. Rein and Doom, knocked on thier backs taking 10% of the damage they would have delt with their charges. Bob & Mauga, just come to a dead stop with like a half second stun. Brig bounces off harmlessly, being delflected but potentially still hitting an enemy near Orisa in Fortify. Lets Orisa keep her thing, makes Doom and Rein the most effective Chargers at the cost of worse outcome if they hit Orisa. Bob and Mauga still steamroll everyone else but don't suffer too badly from Orisa's Fort. And Brig can still be pinned or punched andgets the Half second stunning dead stop from hitting a Bob or Mauga; But gets deflected rather than dead stopped by Orisa's Fortify. Honestly, thats just an off the cuff backseat game Dev'ing by me. And it's probably a terrible idea of Charge balancing for numerous reasons I can't think of or see. I'm just some opinionated shmuck on the internet spitballing ideas that are not likely to be any good really. Meh.
Me and my friend found out that if you use cage fight and one of your teammates are Lifeweaver, Mauga can get pulled out of his own ult by him, while anyone trapped inside the cage, stays inside until they can break it.
lifeweaver petal had me puzzled by its hight limit and wondered if the cage fight was on a ramp so the room was close to a ground for lifeweavers petal.
1:29 - Rein can just quicky drop his shield to stop the burning and immediately bring it back again. This is more useful against Winston/Ramattra and to a less extent Sigma's shield.
Reinhardt, a giant man in armor with a turbine on his back, can be stopped mid-charge by a girl with a shield, but nothing can stop this charge? Muh immersion (and balance I guess) I bet McCree's old Flashbang would have stopped it, though.
"Did you buy the groceries today?" Regular people: "No, not today." KarQ: "Busted." Statements are busted or confirmed. Yes-no questions are answered with yes or no!
The fact that Overrun goes through everything is kinda dumb. Goes through Zaryas Grav even. Meanwhile EVERYTHING stops Reins charge. Just seems silly and inconsistent.
Translocator has a couple interesting interactions like the Cage Fight one. I remember I got slept but I'd already thrown the TP so I translocated basically at the same time I fell asleep.
They stated before the rework went life that Translocator now overrides CC to reward good reaction time for disengaging. Basically you can get slept, frozen, hacked, hindered, etc, and you'll tp anyway if you managed to throw it before getting CCd
As all video game videos are bound to become, this one is a bit outdated so I’d like to just mention that you can no longer crit orisa while she’s burning in fortify. Still a great vid though 🙏
isnt it kinda weird that after everything the tank community has been talking about (too many cc's, everyone focusing you etc.) the response was a tank that's pretty much immune to all of that
Funny thing is, your own LW can lifegrip you out of your own cage fight. Once saw dude caught 3 of the squishies inside his cage and his own LW grab his ass out of his own cage. Can't imagine the team chat/coms.
There are pros and cons to that Pro: they're still trapped but can't shoot you Con: mauga loses his infinite ammo when pulled out but can get it back by walking back into the cage
Here's one question, Can Mei primary fire cancel the burning state in enemies affected by Mauga? And what if both are attacking the same target with high HP?
it feels like a lot of his abilities glaze over a lot of other generally consistent rules (like anti or charge), so it feels harder to predict what to do during a match if just going based off of what generally works ://
But the antinade + overhealth interaction has been in the game for a long time. Many characters get overhealth like JQ, Ball, Sigma, etc and antinade has never prevented that. Antinade only prevents regaining hp through healing, not gaining new hp as overhealth
It is consistent. His skill is like a combo of Orisa's Fortify and Rein's Charge. He becomes unstoppable which makes the interactions consistent with what is in the game.
Kiriko can't either It probably has something to do with the fact that Sombra and Symmetra place objects to teleport, whereas Reaper and Kiri just teleport by themselves.
I'm pretty sure Sombra can tp out because they fixed bug when you got pulled by Hog after teleport so now game check if You had any interaction on throw, and if there was no cage, You can tp out.
Sombra only can if you throw translocator before the chain hooks to you it’s very tight timing. Once the chain attaches then you can’t use translocator but if you throw it before the chain hooks you then the chain hooks you before the .25 sec it takes for translocator activate you will tp from the cage to your translocator as is the intended interaction. Same as if you throw it then get rein pinned then it activates before rein hits a wall you tp out.
Little known fact is Sombra actually has an unstoppable like Orisa. This was added in the rework. She will teleport no matter what as long as she threw her tele. She can be frozen, shattered, speared, and hooked and she will always Teleport.

Normally Mauga is stuck in his own Cage fight, but Life Grip doesn't only pull players out of an enemy Mauga's cage fight, It can pull a friendly Mauga out of his own cage fight.
Which is SUPER beneficial because then it turns into a Zarya grav and enemies can't shoot back
adding to this, Mauga does not have infinite ammo if he is pulled out of his own cage fight. he regains it if he re-enters the cage though

The fact that Overrun goes through everything is kinda dumb. Goes through Zaryas Grav even. Meanwhile EVERYTHING stops Reins charge. Just seems silly and inconsistent.
Translocator has a couple interesting interactions like the Cage Fight one. I remember I got slept but I'd already thrown the TP so I translocated basically at the same time I fell asleep.
They stated before the rework went life that Translocator now overrides CC to reward good reaction time for disengaging.
Basically you can get slept, frozen, hacked, hindered, etc, and you'll tp anyway if you managed to throw it before getting CCd
"as hard a as Zarya is trying to suck Symetra off" is wild
4:50 Lifesteal is only for critical hits. You wasn't doing critical hits to get healed and also to get Burst charge
Little mention with Mauga you can run through the cage without being trapped if you start to run outside
My word, the either poor choice or intentional choice of words when he talked about zarya ult dragging people out of the muaga ult
I saw the thumbnail and thought this was a Overwatch and Rocket League crossover thing LMAO
As all video game videos are bound to become, this one is a bit outdated so I’d like to just mention that you can no longer crit orisa while she’s burning in fortify. Still a great vid though 🙏
Sombra is actually the first hero whose self healing doesn't contribute to her ult charge gain.
Actually Reaper is the first.
@@mathybrain8not actually. Reaper's self healing is a passive, and healing passives have never given ult charge
this is a normal viewer comment. good job KarQ Gaming.
ah my favorite series
the amount of shade in this video
Thank you for all of these Overwatch Mythbusters!
isnt it kinda weird that after everything the tank community has been talking about (too many cc's, everyone focusing you etc.) the response was a tank that's pretty much immune to all of that
Mauga + Sigma combo ult seems like a crazy strat if you ask me, very interesting synergy
yeah, if only overwatch was a 6v6 game...

That 6:23 caught me off guard tbh
"BUSTED" yeah, you got that right haha
8:30 bro must RUN 😂💀
Funny thing is, your own LW can lifegrip you out of your own cage fight. Once saw dude caught 3 of the squishies inside his cage and his own LW grab his ass out of his own cage. Can't imagine the team chat/coms.
There are pros and cons to that Pro: they're still trapped but can't shoot you Con: mauga loses his infinite ammo when pulled out but can get it back by walking back into the cage
Here's one question, Can Mei primary fire cancel the burning state in enemies affected by Mauga? And what if both are attacking the same target with high HP?
What I wanted to see is if petal platform can lift it after it‘s been placed
I wonder if a Mauga Overruning into an active cage fight from outside interrupts overrun as soon as he enters
Can you lift up Cage Fight with Lifeweaver’s petal when placing the petal after the ult, like a Winston bubble?
Tbh mauga's overrun should run into rein's charge
it feels like a lot of his abilities glaze over a lot of other generally consistent rules (like anti or charge), so it feels harder to predict what to do during a match if just going based off of what generally works ://
But the antinade + overhealth interaction has been in the game for a long time. Many characters get overhealth like JQ, Ball, Sigma, etc and antinade has never prevented that.
Antinade only prevents regaining hp through healing, not gaining new hp as overhealth
It is consistent. His skill is like a combo of Orisa's Fortify and Rein's Charge. He becomes unstoppable which makes the interactions consistent with what is in the game.
So Sombra and Sym can teleport out of the cage fight... but Reaper can't? Makes sense
Kiriko can't either
It probably has something to do with the fact that Sombra and Symmetra place objects to teleport, whereas Reaper and Kiri just teleport by themselves.
I'm pretty sure Sombra can tp out because they fixed bug when you got pulled by Hog after teleport so now game check if You had any interaction on throw, and if there was no cage, You can tp out.
Sombra only can if you throw translocator before the chain hooks to you it’s very tight timing. Once the chain attaches then you can’t use translocator but if you throw it before the chain hooks you then the chain hooks you before the .25 sec it takes for translocator activate you will tp from the cage to your translocator as is the intended interaction. Same as if you throw it then get rein pinned then it activates before rein hits a wall you tp out.
Little known fact is Sombra actually has an unstoppable like Orisa. This was added in the rework. She will teleport no matter what as long as she threw her tele. She can be frozen, shattered, speared, and hooked and she will always Teleport.
@@jacques8823 that’s how it’s supposed to work but there are bugs around it and it’s sever side for some stupid reason so it doesn’t work right
I like it when his chest jiggles
Zarya is doing WHAT
