Mauga Is Overpowered Again In Overwatch 2.... 

Playing mauga/orisa is a prime example of the prisoners dilemma. If one tank player does it, it forces the other to also do and then you both don't get to have fun

It would really funny if it was a Mauga/Echo meta with Echo's only reason being there is to make a second Mauga.

Flats, you are built differently. I would have mirrored the Mauga as soon as he walked out of spawn 😂

"Throughout heaven and earth, I alone am the samoan one." - Mauga

I feel like Mauga will always be either too good or too bad. No in between.

The issue with the Mauga “meta”, imo, is that you have to shoot the other tank, especially if the other tank is a Mauga. If you don’t, you die, plain and simple. Any other tank you can turn away and shoot the supports, or DPS, but not Mauga. He’s simultaneously too squishy, and too tanky.

Rein gets buffed but someone else always gets buffed more 😭.

He is one of those cases where at least half your team needs to counter him (ana, zen) and then he falls apart pretty easily but if they ignore him, he can run rings around your team

“Kirito” Ah hell nah

This video is just ult charging sim

I needed a clip of flats from months ago saying "the way you counter mauga is you go mauga."

“hm the community is having fun again lets buff mauga”

Thank you to whoever edited this for bringing back fond memories of smg, but also i screw you for bringing back my ptsd of the bouldergeist daredevil run😂

By reduce visual clutter they meant we will remove 1 tank and that is it.

I guess they have to sell the skin somehow

Oh what did they do now…

The boss music makes it so much more intense

Blizz seeing people have fun: This ends NOW!

Welcome to Overult 1.5: Mauga's domain expansion

I still do not understand playing Dva againts Mauga. The moment matrix is over she gets burst down.

How are we already back in the mauga timeline

I find that Mauga is an extremely feast or famine character. Even more than someone like Doomfist. If you're in a somewhat vertical map and the enemy runs dive, you're pretty much shit out of luck as Mauga unless you never give up the high ground, but will give it up eventually to contest the objective, and when you do they just dive your backline and you lose.

Mauga is just terribly designed. He will either be broken or worthless and there’s no in between. He just came out and he already needs a rework.

Mauga be like: "Did ya miss me?"

It’s actually crazy how balance like this gets through all they need to do is one test and see making one button pretty much make you unkillable is not good for the game

When the character is so dominant both teams go Echo just to copy them every ult.

Blizzard really saw junkerqueen/doom/dva being meta and really said “you know what is way more fun, mauga he seems waaaay more fun than those tanks”

Mauga has the same problem as Roadhog, when he's meta no one gets to have fun.

Mauga duels have the same energy as Torb 1v1s, except you now have everyone on your team to help your guy win. And whichever team loses just has to concede a point because they get run over.

16:02 I never thought I'd hear KarQ reach that volume

270hp gone in 1 frame🤣 14:22

The Super Mario Galaxy music be hitting hard tho

New Mauga team comp just dropped: Echo (copies enemy magua), Genji (reflects anti nades thrown at Magua), Mercy(damage boosts and also revives Magua), Kiriko(heals/cleanses Magua), and Mauga(Maugs all over the enemy gamers) This can be reality if they make Maguas guns pinpoint accurate and if his healing is buffed so much that 2 Magua can stare eachother down forever.

11:19 = 41/15 , 27k damage... Flats: "Tanks need a buff, nerf all supports, tanks have no impact on the game" Both tanks are the top 1 and 2 damage dealers... Does anyone remember what "DPS" stands for, or role is?

I think they should just make him being able to fire both guns an ability that lasts a few secs similar to bastions sentry form. and it could last 5secs, and it goes on a 12sec cooldown, that way ppl can't just spam it but also you can have the fun gameplay loop of switching between secondary and primary. and it would make him less of a nuisance. It would literally fix most of the unfair unfuness of fighting him upclose cause he wouldn't just hold down both buttons and beam you.

Flats descending into insanity

Mauga is a DPS with a lot of health

A Jet Black skin was the best balance change they could ever make to Mauga.

yo editor, you popped off with the music, I got blasted back to the Galaxy days...those were good days.

Mauga is the true final boss

Being a doomfist otp life is hard out here

14:30 overwatch moment

Just realized we nees a tf2 heavy skin for mauga with heavy's voice lines

I love mauga cause he is a bit mindless and loves to 1v1 the other tank, he just has good damage for a tank which is damn hard to find I feel and given I’m not that good he’s nice to learn on

14:12 let's see who's the bigger threat here a person with two mini guns or the monk. 14:19 yep the monk kills the dude with two miniguns (The tank experience)

“The most insane, idiotic playstyle” You summed up why I love playing mauga

Loses to mauga = Mauga is over powered 💀

"And he stands there! UNFACED!!"

fun and interactive gameplay

they actually made a hard counter to every other tank

I like the editor for editing everytime flats gets a kill, they added the coyboy bebop kill sound 😆

Average mauga vs any other tank experience

Those BGM tho

13:21 I love how both Flats and Karq are saying "no bitch"

A tank that counters other tanks is possibly the worst thing possible.

That Mauga must have a really good gaming chair.

March 19th: “Aaaaand it’s gone”

Enemy Sojourn really said "This ends now" and the fight ended. Truly OverSoj moment.

I feel like the way Blizzard should go about balancing numbers tanks like Mauga and Hog is by lowering their base health and centering their survivability around sustaining themselves using elements of their kit rather than being an unkillable wall with high health, damage output, and consistently high levels of self-sustained healing and virtually no downsides. Mauga should get a damage and health reduction, but potentially a lifesteal percentage increase to counteract the other changes. Hog should get the same treatment, only with a reduction to his meter recharge time so Hog players have to play a bit smarter with their utility if they want to achieve the same degree of success as current Hog. I feel like changing numbers tanks like this is a good way to avoid another Mauga meta like the one we just got out of in season 8.

I think it might be pylon cuz that second u take to look at it makes u get fire squad maybe kill it first before every team fight

I'm so glad he's back - he's definitely not super one-dimensional and boring AF.

I just love those clusterfuck teamfights, where no one has an Idea whats going on, and everyone is just screaming and shooting for their life XD

That Mercy, Mauga, Sojurn combo is naughty

It’s Mauga’s meta and we’re all just dying in it

I’m just waiting for both teams to be running mauga and echo so we can see 4 maugas just causing absolute destruction. It must happen

14:27 2 mauga ult, 2 zen ult, 2 sojourn orbs, and the widows kill the enemy maugas cage fight. 👍 Love this game

No way that Tracer did ALL THAT just to splode herself that way 💀

As someone that recently took a year or so break from OW. I never thought I'd hate seeing someone more then Doomfist.

I don’t think it’s just mauga meta, I’m a tank main and I realized majority of tanks are actually good now

14:24 LMFAOOOO

Mauga prob one of if not the scariest tank

14:50 yea that’s Overpromise…

I'm forced to play ana again whenever he's the opponent tank

The Super Mario Galaxy music makes it.

He's been meta yall just been scared. He's helped me get into diamond before the patch even happened. You time him just right and you mow through the enemy tank. Chefs Kiss (Edit): I get people find it boring and brainless, however, i enjoy Mauga, so not having to switch every 7 seconds to a different tank feels nice to me. Hammer boi isnt viable this season so ill take what i can get

tbh mauga seems like a total flats kind of character

I love the Super Mario Galaxy music. It's so fitting. 😭

Karq just yelling in the background: “I’m not a bitch!!” Sent me.

Sure, Mauga meta is torture...but Flats' descent into madness as a result of it is perfection.

Bringing back the gameplay that is just screaming and laughing. How to play Mauga 101

The Mario galaxy music makes this entire video peak

watching a 100 charge zarya basically just tickle mauga is insane actually. i know the kiriko was pumping him full of heals too but jfc

Wow that looked so fun I bet you had such a good time especially with the new dps passive

I’ve recently discovered Mauga can tank any one damaging ult (hanzo dragon, reaper blossom, ram ult, even an entire mine field) by just cardiac overdrive and shooting with both guns at the enemy tank, with cage up I think he can even tank two or three consecutive ults by just shooting (assuming he goes uninterrupted by sleep dart or nade)

Overpowered? No. Strong? Yes.

Y’all just aren’t connoisseurs of the “Unga Bunga” playstyle 😂😂😂😂

Wouldn't be an issue if it waa 6v6. They removed key element from the setup and every patch tank role going to be lacking because its missing an off tank.

Sigma works really well against Mauga. Eating his bullets and cutting him off from his supports. That's my go to tank

Tanks are slowly just becoming dps with larger health pools

The only good thing about Mauga meta is the satisfaction you get when the insta-locked Mauga gets killed in -3 seconds from a dumb play, but everything else is horrible. Mauga legitimately kills brain cells and everyone else around you just stares at the fight, either waiting to completely annihilate and bully the enemy Mauga or prepare to retreat in case their Mauga just explodes.

Don't forget "We want to reduce exploding" show the devs this video and then let's hear them say they removed exploding

Mauga is such a boring character

Mauga and Ram never got a partner tank for 6v6, we should bring it back. 😎

Imagine you wanted to have fun, but Mauga or Orisa said “No.”

Just experienced two mauga games back to back. Im not playing this season anymore unless this is fixed. It's fucking miserable.

10:25 this is literally the only skill expression this hero has

Unreal rammatra gets no mention in every rank he just gets to kill 2 people every 10 seconds 😂

When your Echo use ult to duplicate Mauga, you know its bad lmao

Local Samoan too "The Rock" to die

They should make mauga a bounty hunter type character and make it so he does slightly less damage to anyone who isnt his target, to stop him just shredding anyone he feels like
