First match, I lost. Enemy Doom was being toxic at the end and developed a huge ego. Very condescending, including saying "You'll get there one day, Doom." His duo was also being toxic. Requeued, and here's how the following match went:

Did this "Reverse" Stair Slam a while back...

I wasn't even trying to go for this, pretty sure I was going to slam on the high ground or something. Somehow got a stair slam off of the base of the destroyed post that allowed me to stair slam going downstairs. Possibly useful to catch people off-guard or to quickly get behind cover?

Ah yes, let's nerf Doom. Makes total sense.

Most Doomfist mains have been vocalizing about the need to nerf empowered punch and put power elsewhere in the kit. The devs respond by giving Doomfist a series of nerfs, then finally nerf empowered punch. But of course, there is no buff to any other part of his kit to compensate. He's not even the top tank in terms of winrate. Rein outperforms Doomfist in each and every rank.

He's been a pubstomper in the metal ranks because of empowered punch. He struggles in high ranks because players are much better at countering him, better at not giving him empowered punch, and better at not clumping up in groups to get huge empowered punch value.

The only somewhat saving grace is that since the last patch, you can b-hop with slam while not needing to cancel slam to do so.

Otherwise, I guess they may end up buffing Doomfist next patch since I imagine the winrate in metal ranks is going to plummet after this nerf, while this nerf is probably barely going to impact diamond and above.

Is it possible to get EMP Punch off of punching Shion off her bike?

Stunning Shion while she's on her bike makes her get off her bike and launches the bike forward, where the bike would deal 130-ish damage to whatever it hits (explosion ofc). I've been away from my setup for the past week, so has anybody else tried punching her head-on during her bike, then blocking the bike damage to instantly get EMP punch?

​

I imagine it would be possible but hard to time, potentially frame-perfect or dependent on ping?

​

Also, what does punching her out of the aerial launch do?
