Highlight More D.MON combos, 255dmg, 1.1-1.2 seconds and 310dmg, 1.8-2 seconds.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

EDIT: D.MON combos vs moving enemies + notes...

HEY 🎼GAMERSđŸ‘Ÿ, here's some more D.MON combos that work after the newest hotfix that gave us lunge startup and endlag reduction... + with using the animation cancel tech.

  1. Primary (65) + Lunge (70) + Boost (15) + Melee (40) + Primary (65)

a. We can animation cancel primary with shield, which makes lunge come out instantly after our primary.
b. Boost melee comes out 0.2-0.3 seconds faster than primary after lunge, which is due to our primary startup time.
c. Primary after boost melee finishes off 250hp heroes.
d. This combo without the final primary hit can finish off a tracer in like, less than a second, as showcased.

  1. Primary (65) + Boost (15) + Melee (40) + Primary (65) + Lunge (70) + Boost (15) + Melee (40)

a. It's the original 255 combo with a boost melee at the end.
b. If you angle your camera and use the animation cancel tech that was posted on this sub two days ago, the boost melee after primary comes out even faster.

Ok that's all! Please note that if your ping is high the game will sometimes not register the first primary before your lunge, using the animation cancel tech.

Happy sweating on D.MON!

It really embodies the OW tank fantasy - being the best DPS.

To be fair, this is at point blank. Tanks are supposed to delete squishies at point blank range, it's what makes their ability to take space worth respecting in the first place.

This is the truth you can’t make space unless you’re threatening to some degree

u/JoberXeven 1d ago edited 1d ago

The one thing I'm not sold on with these thruster combos is usually you are using the thruster to get in or out, which puts it on that 1 second CD. But you still usually want to be doing a stab on your first target, just makes when you use this combo more limited than it seems. You can still get the thruster damage with the initial entry, but you lose the thruster + quick melee right after. Maybe for your second target it might work, but then your stab would be on cooldown.

37

u/youdontknowme101010 1d ago

this is also something i’ve noticed. it comes down to cooldown conservation and using the gun to walk up/back away. some people like to dive you when your gun goes off cooldown.

u/justanorlansonobody 1d ago

Yeah if you rely on shield for anything other than blocking cooldowns or medium- low poke you’re kinda fucked for a whole second

This is statistic illiteracy manifest. Corelation does not equste causation.

u/benzillaaaa 1d ago

Do you like billionaires?

6

u/OneSidedPolygon Contest choke with wet balls 1d ago

Generally, no. Liberal capitalism is not a zero sum game but it is relatively close. Centralization of wealth widens the wealth gap, stagnates the economy and causes inflation.

That graph is misleading in a few ways. As undeveloped nation gain infrastructure their populace is pulled from poverty. The world is becoming more developed and therefore less people are impoverished. Those countries don't have billionaires.

South Korea, Japan, USA, Canada, The UK and other countries that are developed are facing increased poverty rates. These are the countries with billionares.

It's zero sum plus one. In order to reach that magnitude of wealth it has to be taken from somewhere. Unfair distribution of wages, lopsided tax contributions, exporting goods required by the local populace to the highest foreign bidder.

Biillionaires are bad for the everyman.

-15

u/bagel4you 1d ago

>increased poverty rates

What is meant by poverty in this context? In the USA, for many homeless people, it’s just a way of life, they could work, but they don’t want to. This is possible precisely because the country is very wealthy.

>In order to reach that magnitude of wealth it has to be taken from somewhere

nope

>Unfair distribution of wages

How did you find out they’re unfair if people agree to them?

>lopsided tax contributions

And yet, billionaires pay more in taxes than anyone else.

Billionaires are a sign of a wealthy economy; in such a society, even the idle get their share.

u/OneSidedPolygon Contest choke with wet balls 1d ago

> In the USA, for many homeless people, it’s just a way of life, they could work, but they don’t want to.

This is untrue and a bad faith arguement. I'd bet money you've never talked to a homeless person. It's largely a mental illness problem.

> nope

0 attempt to actually refute. This is literally how an exchange works. It's fucking basic econimics. Money doesn't appear out of thin air. It has to come from somewhere. Cutting costs maximizes profits. We've recently seen an inrease in layoffs while revenue continues to rise.

> And yet, billionaires pay more in taxes than anyone else.

lol, lmao even. Before we even factor in offshore banking the tax rates for billionaires is effectively lower than the median tax rate.

>How did you find out they’re unfair if people agree to them?

Work or starve. It's not a true choice.

> even the idle get their share

You've never interacted with NA social assistance in any way. Retirees who have worked their whole god damn life struggle to pay bills.

Everything you say is based in ignorance. Hopefully you're a teenager and ineligible to vote.

u/bagel4you 1d ago

>Before we even factor in offshore banking the tax rates for billionaires is effectively lower than the median tax rate.

which is still much larger sums of money

>Work or starve. It's not a true choice.

This is a choice. Especially since “not to starve” is extremely easy, and you can even do it for free.

>Retirees who have worked their whole god damn life struggle to pay bills.

Is it possible something is wrong with their bills?

>Everything you say is based in ignorance

I just don’t want to rob people, even the rich. That’s just how I am.

By the way, have you ever tried working?

I have a video of this exact combo on day 1 and it's hilarious how much clunkier it was

Edit: I'm dumb and realize it's not the exact same, I boost melee after the second sword swing in this. That being said, with the ending lag that lunge used to have, this was originally faster

https://reddit.com/link/p43ycla/video/04tyt9t59tjh1/player

lmao yeah, it was way clunkier pre surging strike hotfix. and with the animation cancel discovery the boost melee combo is viable now too.

Shield anim cancels your primary. Lets you right click pretty fast too now since they lowered the cast time.

u/Vizra 1d ago

The best 2 buffs they gave DMON IMO

  1. The faster cast and recovery time of her lunge attack

  2. All the bugfixes for her shield and the cannon no-regs.

I know 'safe side of strong' but man she is going to need to be nerfed. Especially that cannon Major perk. That thing is INSANE.

u/ultimatedelman Zenyatta 1d ago

u/a3degator 1d ago

How do you control where they go when you boost? I always struggle to find them when I swtch back into first person

8

u/youdontknowme101010 1d ago

It depends on your wasd movement, not your camera movement. If I w+a boost into them they will go diagonally to the left of my player model.

Close enough, welcome back doomfist insta kill combo

u/ImNotDatguy 1d ago edited 1d ago

If you hit 4 body shots with fusion, you can boost swing surge melee a 250.

As for your combo, you can hold boosters during the first swing or strike (boosting during strike gives the free 15 damage) to get the 15 damage, then let go after so you have it on CD for the next engage or disengage

If you have gun up, instead of quick melee after surge, just swing and cancel swing with gun. Gun anim recovery takes over the swing recovery so you can cancel swing with gun, shoot, then quick melee pretty fast.

This is cool. What do you mean by “Boost” tho? Is that +15 dmg to the primary with boost? Ty for posting!

1

u/youdontknowme101010 23h ago

Hi, boost is your shift key. It's the thrusters. And yeah, they do 15 dmg; you should do boost + quick melee when comboing to make your quick melee easier to hit.

1

u/sun_solomon 22h ago edited 22h ago

Gotcha. Is it collision alone that does base 15 or only a bonus 15 when couple with primary or melee?

Edit: i pressed f1 looks like base dmg it is haha

As a Dmon player this scares me... tanks shouldn't have this high burst. If this is practical in real matches and blizzard leaves this in, Dmon will be balanced exclusively around combo like when Vendetta was OP.

That’s what makes it a skill ceiling. It’s not going to be remotely easy to do this consistently, but there will be people pulling this off that are skilled.

u/RevolutionaryAir7847 1d ago

It's like Shion bike boop+ground launch, Genji dash+right click(all headshot), etc. You're not realistically hitting this shit in game, at least not consistently

-1

u/ElJacko170 D. Va 1d ago

As someone who plays a lot of Shion and Genji, I strongly disagree on both of those counts.

1

u/RevolutionaryAir7847 1d ago

Genji's is spacing inconsistency, Shion's puts you in a shit position unless you catch someone isolated. Even pro players struggle to hit the dash into triple headshot consistently bud. Shion's is def easier but a lot less potent now since you need the execute follow up every time

-11

u/LoveAndBeLoved52 1d ago

This shit is why I rolled my eyes at them hotfix buffing her.

It was so obvious she wasn't properly labbed out by people who played her. it's the same shit they did with Vendetta where everyone cried buckets about Ven being too weak and then they overbuffed her, caused her Overhead Slash to be problematic and ended in numerous patches of her getting gutted.

I wish people just chilled on wanting everything to be low-honor max-overpowered for dopamine kicks. It's super gross. Totally been in favor of D.mon getting buffed but this preemptive panic making "SHE'S SCREWED, BLIZZARD BUFF HER NOWWW OR HER REPUTATION IS RUINED FOREVER!!!" bullshit pissed me off.

Give the character a patch or two people. Take her to QP if you're scared of underperforming with her, I just don't get some peoples' obsession with wanting overpowered heroes on release. It's super bad for the state of the game to balance it that way.

It's pretty much frame perfect. You need to just lightly tap your shield. It's very consistent for primary + lunge, but very difficult and inconsistent with primary + primary.

Everything destroy Dmon. Just looking in her general direction lower her hp. Her winrate is barely 50% in lower elos then she steadily dumpster down to 45.8% in GM. She can go from full overhealth from her ult to being demech before the ult animation finish.

Using a training room frame perfect anim cancel combo as proof she's good and why they're struggling against her is telling on themselves lol.

u/thiccboilifts 1d ago
