Genji is in rough spot after the global hp buffs. When squishy heroes were 200hp the dash + right click + melee combo was a much bigger threat. Like Awkward said, his damage is not consistent and he has no range. This was offset by him having high burst damage and movement to get quick surprise kills and assassinations, but now that the HP buffs made the time to kill way higher, Genji's burst combo is more difficult and way less forgiving. You can still carry games if you hit all your combos and headshot right clicks, but other DPS get way more value more easily by sitting far away and clicking heads (or even bodies). Dragonblade was already a difficult ultimate that usually required nano or damage boost to get real value, but now it takes so long to kill anything that enemies have more time to react and easily counter you. I consider baiting a cooldown like lamp or suzu to be a successful blade, and getting one kill or baiting an ultimate is a really successful blade. It usually isn't even worth using sound barrier or transcendence to counter blade because it is so bad.

I’m so glad you did this because he has been a miserable experience since season 9 you can play perfectly and still not accomplish anything… I really don’t understand blizzards balancing rewarding easy to play heroes but making genji like this

A fellow Genji goat

Genji isn't the worst, but he definitely lost everything that made him an enjoyable DPS to play. There's no way any hardcore genji player or any ow casuals for that matter would call playing Genji "fun" in 2024. His kit is simply too outdated and obsolete compared to new heroes like Sojourn and Kiri with OP kits and abilities. It's the same Genji from 2016, only worse in every aspect. While new heroes with OP and complex abilities are added and old heroes get reworked to better fit the current state of the game, Genji is left in the dust with a deflect that is useless against 50% of the damage incoming, and a dash. Great. One would hope that now that blade is useless with the new HP changes, they'd buff his neutral kit. 2 seasons in waiting...

The level of editing is soo good lol Keep it up man

this video remembers me of that one girl that quoted you and said that decisions should be taken not just based on Diamond and above, but mostly on metal ranks because they're "82% of the players". In metal ranks Genji is still a "noob destroyer" if played more or less correctly, but when you traspass the Diamond line it becomes truly hurtful to play. So even if you play the character correctly, in high levels you're so vulnerable, but if they buff him metal ranks will say that "blizz made him so broken". What a dichotomy.

Love the new video style Awkward, I think if do one of these with Junkrat that would be a fun experience considering everyone was categorizing him as F Tier DPS after the health changes.

So good to know even a top player experiences my problems when blading

Ahh finally, the Awkward Gengi video we were waiting for. (At least now i feel validates in my struggle to kill supports with Gengi hah)

this video is very funny thank you for the entertainment

enjoying this new series. it's nice to hear you complain about the gripes of certain characters like genji haha

A great summation of the Genji experience... from this video: "THEY DON'T DIE! >:("

2:28 - very accurate showcase of a genji main communication skills

Hi Awkward! Your 1 year old tracer guide is awesome. After watching, i really improved my game on tracer. Thank you and good luck

8:08 basicly your mid metal rank gamers my best advice is legit stand still and hammer the moira in since you arent gonna dodge and avoid backing up agaisnt her orb

25:53 Yeah but then again you don’t always have to dash in. Necros always preaches using the map to get behind without wasting a cooldown. So if you can climb over a piece of the map and land behind the enemy, then you can get some right clicks off while still having both your dash and deflect as escape options

do you grind your own alt accounts? this one has several seasons worth of credits so im just curious

i cant tell how serious this video is lol

no one says tracer is the hardest to play, t500 players say she has the highest skill ceiling. skill floors and skill ceilings are way different. genji also has a high skill ceiling, but most t500 or OWL pros feel tracer's is higher because her gameplay is more deliberate, whereas genji is often throwing darts in the dark and seeing what sticks (literally, thats what his primary fire feels like a lot of the time. you're just guessing how the enemy will move and not deliberately aiming)

Watching this videos is like having a Genji therapy session 🤣as much as I think the blade swing speed buff was actually a great buff I really think his dash damage needs to be buffed to maybe 60-75 damage considering how Genji's entire playstyle is based on getting value out of dash without dying, or he needs something like the self shields that Venture gets for using their drill dash.

the laugh at "i'm actually a genji main" got me

Tbh I agree with your opinion on genji he isnt the worse but ONE of the worse heroes in the game. Thanks for the vid I would want u to feel the Junkrat experience next u will def love it

I bet if blade could be cancelled it would be used more often as an emergency dash reset like how Cass uses ult as an emergency reload sometimes

'unless i dash in and hit shuriken's nothing dies.' What else are we doing tho?

Can you please make same video about D.Va? Feels literally the same way to play her, 0 ability for solo kills, ult mostly good for remeching, feels like i pick her and say: "Team, do your job, i'll just finish them"

would love to see some Echo in this series :D

Love the Pokémon background music ‼️

11:03 Imagine being the weakest Hero in the game with 175HP (Tracer) and you SURVIVE a swing from the blade by a NANO'ed Genji. Genji needs a buff on his ult. Now, some might argue that if Genji do get ult buff, it will be broken. Back to shuriken until blade, then nano blade = team kill. No, not true. This is where ABILITIES is implemented in this game. F.ex: This Tracer can blink away from the blade, but if Tracer is off CD on blinks, then she should die from a nano blade. Nano is the word. Blade is the bird...

As a genji otp we request a genji unrank to gm educational

20:42, "Like he was one hp and suddenly he is full hp, while I am one hp"🤣

Yess!! Finally 🔥

Now we need an unranked to gm on genji

everything he says is him just trying to make genji seem like a worse hero than he is

I think honestly one of the most reasonable buffs to genji would be faster shuriken speed, mostly for his left clicks. It would make setting up a kill more reliable without having him one shot everything.

The fact that balance team hasn’t made some high skill heroes like Genji more powerful than low skill ceiling heroes just shows why OW 2 is a casual game. Skill is not rewarded thus we may as well be play Candy Crush or Subway Surfers. That said, I still love the game either way, but it’s not a very competitive game for high skilled individuals.

Pretty entertaining video

The problem isn’t Genji as often it’s the Genji players who think they are the lead in some anime show and feed their brains out. Exact same issue with many Dva players.
