Secretly? Junk is in a constant state of “buff him he’s crazy but nerf him he’s still good” because of how oppressive he can be just as crowd control. As a OW1-2 Junkrat main, I can also say he’s undoubtedly the most fun hero to play as or with and the most annoying hero to against.
@@manuelhuttner6362yeah after season 9 and until the health changes for most movement characters he was pretty shit but he’s gotten much better and in my opinion (as a mid plat junk main) he’s in a pretty god spot right now because, as funny as it would be, I don’t want junk to be meta cause the people that already hate him will be whining forever
@@atlas3556 true but when I think of tank buster I usually think of reaper. If I were to put junkrat first in any category it would probably be crowd control just cause the ricochet can catch people off guard. Plus reaper can tank bust tanks like dva and zarya and junk usually struggles against those two
From a junkrat player, this has to be the funniest video I have seen in a while. The traps OMFG, I was wheezing so hard LMAO. The ball just keep falling on the same spot, I can't xD
Even when they add damage falloff to mine, even when they patch out droptire, even when they buff everyone’s health just enough that he can’t combo, Junk is the only reason I keep coming back to this game
Junkrat is like your "dumb" character type in a cartoon who doesn't have a single thought but can crack a masterplan and leave everyone with their jaws on the floor
@@o_Kishi I think he’s easy to hit, just a struggle to headshot because you can’t use the normal aim style. Slight adjustment because you miss if you aim at (usual)head level with him
@@lukastrojak4566 very simple. Most people with good aim don’t flick often unless necessary. They usually try to stay head level. This keeps your aim consistent. Junkrat’s hitbox is very different. His head is chest level, specifically a small circle in the center of his chest. Basically you have to aim for his body to hit his head, rather than aim at head level like most characters.
@@Nfliswwe yeah but I’m 90% I got suspended because I play junkrat, sooooo (it said I got suspended because of inappropriate communication even though I never talk in chat)
If pocketing Tree for the past few years has taught me anything, it's that no one wants a boosted Junkrat in their game, he's too insane with airshots on squishies lmao.
I love playing Junkrat. He can be very oppressive, but he has a few requirements, sorta like widow does. I feel like nothing is more satisfying in OW than hitting a midair shot as Junkrat.
He is only good right now because after the Knockback resistance nerf, my tanks have been getting bounced around by the Conc mines off almost constantly. The CC is ridiculous
Hot take: Junkrat has always been good. He's just outclassed by consistent DPS. It's the same with a character like Hanzo. Hanzo is forever doomed to be a worse Widowmaker, but if you can play him he's very strong. Also fun fact: Hanzo has the smallest Projectiles in the game. Even Kiriko's Kunai are bigger.
Junkrat players are either trash cans or absolute gods, theres no in between. Running into a good junk player is terrifying. Dude just flies through the air like batman and double taps you
Playing junk on defence Numbani is soo fun on first point, placing a trap at the right highground door, spamming the main then someone tries to get you and they get trapped, I've gone games with zero deaths doing that in qp
I just don't know how to play Orisa because 1. I can't play Overwatch But 2. Even if I was cracked, the Orisa experience is so lame I avoid playing her all the time, my entire Overwatch playing time.
I think that high-skill players get trapped more often than low-skill players bc they look up at high ground a lot more, while low-skill players tend to look at the floor.
I love Junkrat so much. The only thing I hate is that sometimes, I’m forced to play him like a brain dead spammer, since I suck really bad at predicting his shot’s trajectory and my enemies movement
Secretly? As a tank and as a support I can say he’s pretty much constantly putting others in the same state of stress and urgency as a man who is on the highway and needs to poop right absolutely now.
the play of the game algorithm thing is set so that ultimates count for less than a headshot kill, headshots or double kills from supports, and anything that happens within 1 or 2 mins of the round ending that doesn't involve a super, I believe it also prioritises people with lower MMR doing something that involves beating someone with a higher MMR or hasn't gotten a play for X many games its really dumb so you end up with some odd bapties getting a kill before the clip starts then just walking about for the rest of the time doing F all because they got that single headshot in the last 10 seconds before the point capped, but a quintuple kill with an ult that wins the game or a tank managing to get a team kill against the odds at the beginning of the match doesnt get it -.-
i like to use these kinds of videos from good player's to help me as a junkrat main whos new to overwatch (only started like more then halfway through this season :D) and i think im doing pretty good and have a lot of the same moves as flats except i hesitate a lot more to use my ult, idk why sometimes i just dont use it, i get so scared im gonna let down my team if i get no one yk ? XD i also am not very aware of my surroundings, does anyone have tips for that kind of stuff?
Use traps all the time unless there's already one right next to you, you'll think there's no way anyone will fall for it... But they will, all the time. With the ultimate just try to keep it out of enemy Line of sight if it's gonna go a distance, or hail Mary and go straight at them. It works sometimes and you'll get a solid 3k
what ive learned as a controller junk main is that pc players dont have a ton of junkrat experience of going against him since he dosent require to much aim also for some reason when i did vs pc on controller they seem to group up more? its an interesting experience
Same as Moira, people think they are both bad but in reality they are both very strong. Moira especially has good damage with aimlock, good healing and she is very mobile and easy to survive as. High players say she is decent because she has no utility but nobody can deny how strong she is.

Junk mains dont play him because he's good. We main him because we're severely mentally ill
Shhh that’s our secret
Like the rat mains that can reach rank 1 on asia leaderboards or hit champ during pharah meta
@@ageometrydashlevel9830 i love dueling Pharahs. You can almost watch the horror when you mine up to them and they realize you will be a problem. 😂
True
I'm starting to play him cause he's severely fun lmao
please don't spread awareness to the public, i don't want more junkrat players 😂
But I want to watch the footy
I will shit on all the sombras and all the tracers.
I. Am. Inevitable.
@@minefroggy4653nuh uh!
I’m already getting them in literally every single match😂 this will just solidify them and guarantee them every game

Is he wrong though?
Just like junkratt players
3:38 winton really just said "Aight, imma head out."
Yea lol
Junkrat is that character you never follow into a corner with tight spaces even if he is low.
I burst out with laughter with this preview pic
From a junkrat player, this has to be the funniest video I have seen in a while.
The traps OMFG, I was wheezing so hard LMAO. The ball just keep falling on the same spot, I can't xD
The secret is he's just insanely fun nobody knows cause most people tend to be meta hugger

Flats don't tell anyone, then tell nerf my boy and buff orisa for no reason
A good enough junk player can fit into any comp and no one can chance my mind.
Junkrat is like your "dumb" character type in a cartoon who doesn't have a single thought but can crack a masterplan and leave everyone with their jaws on the floor
Ironically junkrats pretty smart, considering hes a engineer

10:21 the fallout pipboy transition goes hard
as a bastion main every single junkrat main known to man is my worst enemy
im sorry i changed my mind sombra is my worst enemy
Honestly the most annoying part about junkrat is trying to headshot him. That hunch is annoying asf especially if you’re a projectile hero too.
For some reason for me he’s the easiest hero for me to actually hit, idk why
@@o_Kishi I think he’s easy to hit, just a struggle to headshot because you can’t use the normal aim style. Slight adjustment because you miss if you aim at (usual)head level with him

i feel like traps are lowk stupid with the CDs, can just put one right back down after someone destroys it or gets caught in it
@ it’s not the worst, it’s pretty noticeable so just shoot it lol
Junkrat isn't good. Junkrat is fun
11:20 THE TRACER IS IN MY WHAT?!
I just noticed that 😂😂
I fucking love junkrat, more so when another player switch to junk and can't win against you
nothing but respect for people who swap to junk. It's like the honor duels between two rein players.
@@TheBlueCrayon The worst when their team has a dva tho and gets between ur duels by gobbling all ur shit smh
Traps in the middle of common pathways is so much fun! Junk also fits into so many places. He can even dive now that he has 2 mines!
the thumbnail goes hard
The Orisa discussion is so true. Apparently, not everyone knows how to play Orisa. I don't get it either
If pocketing Tree for the past few years has taught me anything, it's that no one wants a boosted Junkrat in their game, he's too insane with airshots on squishies lmao.
anyone else notice that the editors for flats videos love the smash bros sound tracks? cause i love em 2
don't tell them our secret, they'll be more echoes now
Secretly?? Nah he’s been busted. Junk has been a menace since the patch dropped
Hearing flats laugh while playing overwatch made my day :)
I have mained junkrat since beta ow1
Junkrat has always been good. I’ve been maiming him for 4 years now. It’s just easy to play
I gotta say the thumbnails have been pretty great lately.
7:50 why ball just floating in the back 😂
I saw your video about Warframe and if I wasn't somewhat far in the game, I'd love to help you get into it.
Flats lookin so happy, you should play Junk more often bro ;)
The thumbnail is top tier
is Junkrat Secretly Good?? He is Top-tier DPS.
Junkrat’s current state makes him feel overpowered to play at times and it’s amazing
Junket just goated
I love playing Junkrat. He can be very oppressive, but he has a few requirements, sorta like widow does. I feel like nothing is more satisfying in OW than hitting a midair shot as Junkrat.
Finally a new thumbnail.
What in the world was that trap on 1:58? LOL
I see Junkrat in every other game. He is busted especially on certain maps
Low key, the change to Junkrat's bomb damage after bouncing makes him so much scarier in situation where he can just spam chokes.
He is only good right now because after the Knockback resistance nerf, my tanks have been getting bounced around by the Conc mines off almost constantly. The CC is ridiculous
YEAH JUNKRAT VID
There is currently a rat Infestation on ladder
"there is no such thing as an unhappy junkrat player"
OOO MY GOD SEWERAT!?!?!
Hot take: Junkrat has always been good. He's just outclassed by consistent DPS. It's the same with a character like Hanzo. Hanzo is forever doomed to be a worse Widowmaker, but if you can play him he's very strong.
Also fun fact: Hanzo has the smallest Projectiles in the game. Even Kiriko's Kunai are bigger.

I can’t play orisa because I have no patience.

As a junkrat main my secret to having fun in overwatch no matter the meta, no matter the state of the game is playing junkrat.
Us Junk mains play him just to hear him sing...and to hear him cackle.

Emongg lowkey went crazy in the tracer potg
I've been playing junk since day 1. He's always been somewhat strong. Especially if you play him agro and flank style.
Secretly? As a tank and as a support I can say he’s pretty much constantly putting others in the same state of stress and urgency as a man who is on the highway and needs to poop right absolutely now.
You know your being a good Junkrat if the enemy team is salty.
That ball was rolled over
