The DPS passive is only 10% healing reduction against Tanks. This is a Take a Breather buff!

Thumbnail: “HOG GIGABUFFED” Cyx: “This buff is nothing”

11:04 It is not running away, it is thinking with your head. Cyx knows what he's doing.

Waiting for Cyx gyatt reveal

Now I don’t know if I’d call a slight trap buff a “Giga Buff”

With armor being changed twice hog now does 29% less damage against armor than he did after his rework.

crazy how all the creators have been going nuts with this patch yet here we see Cyx instantly adjust to deal with it. Guy took the changes like a G. I'm taking this one as a learning experience and putting it into my Platinum games. Activate > run > cooldown > attack. Seems comms are gonna be so much more important in games now!

Hooking him while he's shouted, been doing that since day one just to remove his healing ability for that duration. Especially in the octagon.

This is the problem with OW2 these days, even in a GM lobby people don't understand how abilities work. :) "Why are you running from a cardiac overdrived Mauga?" GUESS!

Been waiting for this

Doin the mauga math. mauga has a dps of about 237 when the enemy is on fire and he’s mag dumping into a big target. in the previous iteration his 237 dps would have converted to 142 hps for a a total of 711 lifesteal healing over 5 seconds in the most ideal circumstances without any other buff or hero assistance. The current patch allows for 100% lifesteal as opposed to 60% Meaning at 237 dps the mauga will receive 237 hps for a total of… 711 hps over 3 seconds in the ideal circumstances. This coupled with the 10% extra damage reduction and his overhealth generation would give him a little less than 3 times the effective health pool in that 3 second duration. Overall a net nerf imo. He was already unkillable in cardiac overdrive and now that everyone has realized the best counter play is to LOS him till the ability is used up all that this is going to do is make it easier to back off and wait him out.

The thumbnails never fail to make me laugh. Net nerf for hog because of armor changes. Damn sad day.

That Mauga buff seems like a roadhog nerf to me.

You got to look at armor buffs too. Now you get them down and immediately he has full armor again.

The buff is trying to make it more of a trap to cut off areas but they didn't remove the 1 shot combo with it so hog players aren't going to stop using it for the 1 shot. if them make the activation damage much less but the damage overtime much higher than if you got hooked into it while still having a cooldown than you can escape BUT if you don't have any cooldowns than you die. I think this would be better because he can still basically 1 shot if he is with his team or if the enemy used all of they're cooldowns but I don't see that much use for it cutting off an area like disruptor shot

Big brain Cyx

Maug just needss to know were to position and get those stomps. Hes really good now if you know when to use cardiac overdrive

I've been maining Hog for years. I've mastered his hook-shot-melee to the point where when I kill someone, it looks as though I killed them with a shot but in the feed, it'll show as melee.

Waiting for cyx to address the gyatt allegations

I've been seeing a lot of people dealing with mauga like it's nothing now

I think lower ranks will have more tanks q up bc of buffs. I doubt it will effect much in t500

Huge health pools but no buffed healing to heal them up

Wow this "Lyx" guy is pretty good at Hogmog. Watching him really ups my over game.

I am glad they did not actually gigabuff Hog, tbh. Because we all know what happens next. Back to the bog. ^^

Correction, everyone got giga buffed

The armor changes giganerfed hog

I

Now the junk trap+hog trap combo Will instakill ❤250 heroes Noice

Who was that crawling on the floor at 3:34

Day 3 of asking for Cyx forehead reveal

And still no hanzo one shot...

11:12 can't deal with that emote man it should be banned

No way they gave Mauga a buff

they may buff overdrive back to 4 sec. frankly unless he use cage it's so ez to wait out the overdrive and then re-engage ! what's the point of 3sec when every CC takes off 1 sec atleast and He has like 2 sec effective overdrive or even less. Overall unless you're dumb enough to face tank mauga on his shout for pure ego duel, the uptime nerf outweighs the buff by a massive deal !

For mi the hog was to be bad por this sesson because the demage and health of the mauga is soooooo crazy

good old cyx clickbait

Mauga Meta is back yay...

A lot of OW content creators were bitching and moaning about this patch and tbh they did kinda ohde with the tank buffa but lets be real they are callled tanks for a reason and its only one of them not 2 anymore WE BEEN NEEDED THIS Blizzard gets a W for me after OW2 came out... Lets not act like people wanted to rank prior to this patch ...

I think mauga need more buffs and hog need nerf

Mauga is annoying as hell

No way u say Mauga just got nerfed 😂

Mauga Was not a nerf

Just give us back 6v6 and stop this nonsense 🙄

Am I like the only person in the world who thinks these changes are good? 🧍
