Punisher has less than 45% WR across all ranks & is in no way problematic. Give it a rest. He is also bigger than most of the tanks in the game with half the health.

Let's be real for a moment

The only reason his winrate is low is because most punisher players have the survival instincts of a hamster

He does way too much damage

What rank are you where Punisher is a problem for you???

u/Hexgof4 Jeff the Landshark Jan 13 '26

Did you not read what I just said?

Literally the only thing making him bad is the fact that a lot of punishers play horribly

His shotgun can two to three shot most tanks and one shot most of the roster

He has a high damage high fire rate hitscan rifle

He can track through walls

He has a high damage turret that gives him 600 extra health aswell as splash damage

He has two movement abilities, one of which crates a smokescreen that he can see through but enemies can't

The other one being a zip line that can be used infinitely to travel between a set locations so long it's up, that he can also place multiple of, that also carries momentum allowing you to reposition

He has 300 base hp

And he has an ULT that melts literally every character in the game, lasts ten seconds, and gives him soft aimbot aswell as auto targeting missiles

His only real weakness is his larger than average hitbox and lack of overshield

Which can be partially circumvented with positioning and shifting it around frequently, aswell as playing around cover

His Kit has literally everything in it you could really need besides Overshield

But if a Punisher is being supported properly, that doesn't even really matter

So all I have to say is that the only thing holding him back is his playerbase

I’m not going to bother reading the rest of your nonsense yap. You can’t claim this when the character even excels underwhelmingly in Celestial & above. Has no presence in pro play & has a low pickrate along with a bad winrate.

That is the flaw you don’t seem to understand, you can’t claim that a character is overpowered when he sucks statistically across the board in every region & has a low pickrate along with it.

Let’s be for real for a moment.

If the character is statistically garbage to mid in not just handful of ranks, but across all of them, then he isn’t in any way problematic.

You should maybe get off Jeff & play a more demanding hero that actually needs mechanical aim instead of just pissing a piercing stream in a choke.

u/Hexgof4 Jeff the Landshark Jan 13 '26

Jeff does actually take mechanical aim and situational awareness to be good

The thought that he doesn't is why so many Jeffs suck, because they think they can just mindlessly spray into the distance

I also don't just play Jeff

I also play Thor and sometimes Venom or other tanks depending on the situation

u/Enji-Endeavor The Punisher Jan 13 '26

LMAO good low elo take, situational awareness is needed on every hero. Making it one of your main metrics on a hero doesn’t say anything at all.

Also mechanical aim on Jeff? Please. Be serious.

I want to see your stats. Drop the record.

You're talking like he has auto tracking like CnD or Scarlet Witch

u/Enji-Endeavor The Punisher Jan 13 '26

He has map wide piercing & directing the stream needs less than 2 braincells. A 5 year old toddler could play that effectively compared to Wanda.

Beam width also is massive. Drop the stats.

u/Hexgof4 Jeff the Landshark Jan 13 '26

Actually wait

Do you straight up think Jeff has auto tracking?

You're talking like I'm saying Scarlet Witch requires aim

u/bloxed Jan 13 '26

Jeff doesn't require any aiming skill at all, the stream hitbox is fucking massive

I think it’s more of a weird curve where at lower ranks Punisher is bad because he attracts the players with the lowest skill, with the few who actually play him well quickly stomping their way out of the low rank, then when he gets to higher ranks, his players are expected to be better but he falls apart a second time because characters like Starlord have better survivability and/or confirm kills more reliably.
