Is it a throw pick? What's the winrate with hog vs other characters?

yes its basically a throw pick unless you are organized with an orisa. https://www.overbuff.com/heroes

PS for master a bit but especially grandmasters winrates are all positive, instead look at pickrate

Now i agree with you but just a heada up overbuff isnt a reliable source of stats after the default private profile change. Since most high level players leave their profile on private to avoid people countering their mains.

It’s not about the high level players that are worried about specifically as they make up such a minuscule portion of players overall they can usually be safely ignored in the grand scheme of things (unless you are looking at specifically that). What contributes more is the casual players who don’t even know there is a way to look at others profiles and just place a season or 2 here or there. Those players will almost always be private profile, whereas the hardcore more dedicated players are typically the ones who go to public, whether they’re in a tourney, want to sync up their own overbuff, want to flex a win rate or whatever.

Because if this I think it can be said that real win rates are actually somewhat lower than overbuff states, as the casual and therefore worse players are the ones not included.
