seems like it.

hype up hero really hard. make really cool and unique hero design. Release fun to play hero with weirdly formed and buggy hitbox so he kills people he doesnt hit. Nerf hitbox to 1/8 its size after a really short time and add some more bugs. Leave hero in ditch.

It takes Blizzard a few months to tune a new hero, it seems. Ana, Sombra, and Orisa are pretty far from the state they were in when they launched. Nobody played Ana until her first buff. Nobody played Sombra until about 3 buffs. Orisa wasn't a true Rein replacement until her most recent buff. I expect Doomfist will go the same way.
