In my own games and watching cyx, the consensus seems to be ana is much worse for hog now as she’s even more incentivized to anti him, but aside from breather (probably, don’t know what changes ana and zen are getting in season 8) needing a little nudge upwards, I think he’s in a great spot. I feel threatening at all times when playing hog now instead of just when hook is off cooldown, his gun feels great, the trap is very fun (especially as a junkrat player) and hooking someone as long as you plan for a combo with pre fire or trap almost always leads into a kill if they aren’t a tank. I love it.
For real. I played yesterday and today and I’m sick and tired of hog mirrors. I play with my friends and I tend to play aggressively. It’s been aggravating because if I get hooked and die I know my team is dead most of the time because I see how they play and they’re not really good 😭. Today was the first time I ragequit with them because they don’t know how to play against hog to save their lives. That was 3 hours ago and I’m still irritated 😀.
