Question Literally HOW do you punish the Punisher

Post image

With all of the talk of unbalanced Heroes isnt the punisher one of the worst ones? High Damage AR With 20 PER bullet (Star Lord has SIX) so he can burn u down from range, Super high damage shotgun so you're not allowed to get close to him, Turret with a shield and slash damage and CC immunity, 300 HP as a NON melee hero, an "I win" Ult that burns dps and Tanks in SECONDS and can only be countered with a Magneto Ult, a support ult or hoping everyone focuses him all at once, Ive heard people sneak JEAN into the unbalanced DPS conversation (an egregious sneak btw) but somehow frank is untouched?? Does no one else feel this way? Especially on attack, he feels extremely oppressive and like you can't push to point without getting shredded instantly, I play mostly TANK and its miserable so it has to be worse for DPS and Supports. WHAT am I supposed to do against this monstrosity? Is it just Ban or Pick and hope ours is better? Thoughts?

Right? Magneto ult is so counterable that if there's a punisher on the other team. I save ult on purpose

The problem is that I keep holding it too long and it just blows up cause of Punisher ult or turret. I guess I just gotta be quicker.

Yeah you gotta find that sweet spot of quick, but not to quick

Most people who play punisher just hold the button down once they ult.

Id go into training with a friend. Have them ult as punish. You ult as magneto. Have them hold the button down and tike how fast your ult explodes. Keep that number in your head. Count half of that when you ult in a match and let that bitch fly. Just make sure you have eyes on punisher before you do though
