While it's definitely a nerf to both heroes' ability to quickly kill their targets, it also makes their most lethal abilities more predictable.
significantly changes two heroes at the center of the community's recent discussions around one-shot kills.
This is a major change to the way Roadhog has always been played. With reduced hook damage, squishy DPS and support heroes are less vulnerable to a followup shot. The 4-meter leash also means Roadhog's prey will have more time to use a movement or protection ability to survive. His Scrap Gun shoots faster and has more ammo, too, so his ability to follow up on the hook is still possible, but will require some marksmanship aim.
For many, the issue with one-shots and a quick time-to-kill is the inability to respond or predict what is about to happen. Roadhog and Sojourn have dominated the meta in recent months partially because of their"all or nothing" combat loop—if Roadhog lands the hook or Sojourn hits a head, it's already over. Today's tweaks are the first steps toward slowing down Overwatch and creating the opportunity for counter-play.
