The other difference between the two is the damage they do. For the second version of it, it’s a lot harder to stun or boop the Doomfist.” The second kind is when you do it from the air, where you directly slam to the blue marker on the map. “Then, the enemy can stun or boop you in that time very easily. “The first kind is when you start from a flat surface, where you have a little hop animation you’re locked into until you land,” Recurve said. One of the lesser-known facts about Doomfist’s Seismic Slam ability is that there are two different versions of it. The community has found many different spaces to hide and pounce.

Doomfist demonstrates his ultimate ability. It doesn’t do a lot of damage unless a player hits targets directly but, if they can get value from the slam, they should make sure to punish enemies as they rotate and are caught off guard. Plus, Doomfist’s ultimate ability is a great tool to use to engage with all their other abilities - and then to escape. It negates the damage they’d do with their punch but allows them to traverse the map a lot easier. If a player jumps towards the end of their punch animation, they gain a little extra distance. When it comes to any Doomfist guide, one of the most popular tips is the punch-jump. The third one is a hybrid, where you dive specific targets and use the map to engage quickly, get a kill fast and retreat.” A guide to Doomfist tips and tricks
“Then, there’s the punch-bot style, with a rush comp, where you basically punch the enemy Reinhardt so they’re always on the backfoot. “First, you have the rollout style, based on knowing weird corners of the game to get to and slam off of,” Recurve said. On most maps, Doomfist can be played one of three ways. This is due to the rooftops and small choke points. Some of the best maps, according to Recurve, are Eichenwalde and Hanamura. But, unlike the meta-proof nature of Pharah, Doomfist can be played on almost every map with value. Recurve mentioned how maps like Junkertown are bad for Doomfist, as they are very open. Doomfist, like Pharah, gets better on maps with corners and buildings to hide behind. The only thing that will help a player in this scenario is if they get more support from their team - like getting Zarya bubbles to stop stuns and hacks - or if they swap to another hero.Īdditionally, players must be aware of which maps fit their hero the best. Therefore, while picking Doomfist from the start is tempting, the enemies can play well enough to mitigate a player’s value. “Heroes like Sombra, Brigitte, McCree and Ashe can mess up your plays as Doomfist if they focus you well,” Recurve said.Įssentially, all heroes with significant forms of displacement or stuns can mess with Doomfist’s play. Doomfist is a hero that can be countered more than Pharah can. But, he originally got to a high level of play with Doomfist and has a lot of tips for players who want to climb playing him. In more recent times, his specialty has been Pharah. To start, Recurve is a top 500 DPS player, specifically on Pharah, Doomfist and Tracer. This guide, with top 500 ladder player Brian “Recurve” Allen, gives advice to help players climb in competitive play as Doomfist. Especially with hitscan nerfs still live, Doomfist can get more value than before. Doomfist can be easy to pick up on, but hard to master. But, when they do poorly, they effectively do nothing to help their team.
When a player does well with Doomfist, they usually are winning the game. His entire gameplay revolves around getting him to use his movement abilities to do the most damage and escape. In Overwatch, there is no more of a “feast-or-famine” hero than Doomfist.
