I think blitzkriegx on twitch at around 10:30 had similar idea to mine (and this has thus worked for me until mid diamond) "I think its good to peel for your team, but if Doom just jumps past you think of it as High fiving you to go into their backline while he for goes for yours"
The last 30 seconds of the vod is a huge learning opportunity like you stated. It was really disheartening to watch him tunnel-vision on the Doom when he could have helped his Sojourn secure the pick on Hanzo before Moira and Genji got back. This definitely could have been a win but it was the huge target priority flaw at the end that sealed the deal. Great video
Tanks like this are the reason we need 6v6. In OW1 at least one tank would wander past the choke on accident, now it’s on DPS to kill 5 just to get our pacifist kaiju to walk point.
That's.... that's precisely what they SHOULD do. Off-tanking was the biggest reason chokes only existed on certain maps. One tank peels to reduce pressure the other covers the team. As a Roadhog main i was untouchable until someone went Ana 😂
17:35. If you notice, every time You turn around to help your backline as hog, (which hog isn’t a peel character) they have pushed the cart REALLY far, every single time, you turn around. Mainly because of you turning around to try and help against a doom or genji one in 1v4 setting, they push in and your team dies for it. Simply because you don’t stay forward, they have pushed the cart as far as they have. Gotta have a little more faith in your healers and dps to take a 1v4 while you can out pressure on their healers and stop them from getting heals on their back lining genji/doom
they turn around constantly, and shoot at nothing or a single genji instead of enemy supports and holding cart to get picks or value, free value for whoever is making them stare at their backline id say quickest thing to fix would be to look ahead and to not always go down main
Hey, this was me. I now realise after seeing the VOD Review how bad some of my plays were. This was a great learning experience and i am very appreciative of the video. thanks again emongg
Did you play OW1?? This is how I started off playing tank in OW2, because in OW1 I was off-tank and would peel for my backline, so i totally understand wanting to continue that playstyle honestly!
Is there a sweet spot that you should start to vape as pig? Like under 250 or something? Or is it better to engage with it so you get the defense boost?
It depends on the situation like if the fights over n u have ur ult n are on low health then it would be better to let your supports heal you. If your saying to engage with 250hp while vaping that is not ideal as even though u get damage reduction if the entire enemy team is looking at u it ain't going to do crap. Best thing to do is engage with full vape on full health n use it as u get low or disengaging or tanking abilities. Low depends on the situation though like if your 400hp n it's just u vs their tank keep shooting where as if there's 3 looking at u, u prolly should heal n get out. The examples I am providing is ignoring the supports u will have like if u feel u can trust them then keep shooting but if u can't then be safe n heal.
Huffing farts gives dmg reduction on everything except sigma ult so sometimes it's not about healing. It's better to huff early and stay high then drop low and get naded in the ass. Generally because it recharges over time. Every time you go round a corner to reload. Taking a quick huff as you reposition is enough to top off your health, reduce dmg from counter pushing, and prevent you from getting rushed. But anytime you feel you need it give it a huff you'll be right
Found you from Marvel Rivals, I’ve been watching these reviews and they are really entertaining. I couldn’t even name 10 OW heroes and won’t play the game, but have been watching for tips and game sense bc they will definitely cross over
This Roadhog is literally the kind of tank I dislike getting on my team, zero map control, hiding behind the team, gets distracted easily, wastes their ult. Dear Lucifer, I'm lucky i haven't seen this kind of gameplay anywhere near diamond
Does hook work against all characters, or only against Doom and Genji? Not sure after watching this one. I’m assuming it at least doesn’t work against supports or Hanzo, otherwise they would have tried to hook them occasionally.
3:14 in. Roadhog is not the pick against their comp. Rein, ana, genji. Are all hard counters to hog. unless you are like damn near 100% accurate with your hooks. You are just an ult farm at that point, especially for the back line ana with how fat of a target hog is.
Unless you're Cyx (or anyone that just played roadhog their entire life) I don't think he's worth playing at all, just a big meaty walking free ult charge. Countered by literally anything and everything (Except Hazard maybe).
You haven't had any good hogs then. If you don't have a sheild your whole team is a free target. And since i get 3-5% ult charge every time i huff my own farts. I get easy pushes if you don't go ana to counter
I think the funniest part of the VOD was just the Genji CONSISTENTLY using deflect at the Roadhog's face, even if it killed him or not.
Tilting his ass so badly 😂
The Genji vs the Hog moments truly give Raiders of the Lost Ark market scene vibes.
Genji had a game plan, it wasn't a good one but it was a game plan
a lot of the time, genji seems to be really taunting the hog lmao
i mean he's not that amazing but he does taunt the hog a lot and he caved in lmao
Guaranteed the team is getting mad at the road hog because the doom keeps killing the back line 🤣

"I think its good to peel for your team, but if Doom just jumps past you think of it as High fiving
you to go into their backline while he for goes for yours"
That was certainly one of the genjis of all time
They were doing it to troll hog with the T bagging 😂

3:08 no awareness of their surroundings, you can just hear their Juno being killed in the room with Hog.
i was legit "oi. Oi. OI. your JUNO is getting shredded by Genji right next of you and you arent even responding at all this isn't bronze man cmon"

Tanks like this are what will happen FAR more in 6v6

I think they need to include the option for displaying chat during a replay. Hog was stopping quite a bit during 2nd point, probably to respond.

Are you allergic to healing yourself?
massively appreciate your commitment to youtube emongg, daily videos are awesome
I usually watch these vod reviews as educational content but this one was just plain fun. The narration of the genji vendetta was hilarious
I love u emong thanks for posting ow I rlly appreciate it

08:30 did not even know that. Interesting. True case of TIL.

Funniest Genji that i've seen lol.
8:01 cuties, both healing the Hog, that 2 hp was stressful for 3 people 😭
Nice video keep up the good work ❤️

As a Roadhog main we do not claim this earless, eyeless, brainless mess...😢
I never actually play hog a lot, so my understanding of Hog's main gameplay is to... anglemaxx, pick someone off and separate the team from the tank?

Nah that Doom is killing my whole team 1v4 and I'm gonna get blamed for not helping
emon support or tank?
He used to tank now he’s both support and the occasional tank though I have seen him play dps durning streams rarely
he flex queue
all
genji used taunt and it was highly effective..
I would LOVE to play against that Genji
Average cocky hog player 😂
Is this kid.. like.. allergic to using self heals??
This is who will fill your games in 6v6
ALRIGHT SO!
bro needs to watch Cyx if he wants to be a better hog.
3:05 mf deaf? Buy headphones or delete the game!!!!!
