We tested RAMATTRA with EVERY HERO IN OVERWATCH 2 | Mythbusters 

I think the interaction with wall climb is: It technically doesn't slow it down, but as soon as the Genji/Hanzo/Kiriko reaches the top of the wall, they are no longer considered to be climbing and immediately get pulled.

Bap in vortex just turns his super jump into a grunt button. Love it.

Vortex seems like it should reach the skybox if it’s meant to pull things out of the sky

12:48 had me dying with the squeaky wheel sound waiting for Flats to do the ult LOL

i had hoped ramattra would have an impact on pharmercy, but if the vortex' vertical hitbox is this small.....

Seems like his vortex will be more useful when you wanna force the enemy use up a mobility ability

I love how his left hand makes an almost inappropriate groping motion when you fire

Winston trying to jump out of Vortex is the cutest thing ever. It's like a baby winston trying to learn to jump for the first time and just doing a little bunny hop

It’s seems like with Vortex, it’s basically just extreme gravity on free-falling targets. It doesn’t do very much to restrict horizontal movement. So as long as the ability you are trying to use doesn’t FORCE you off the ground (no matter where your crosshair is) simply by using it, vortex is really not that threatening.

Dva vs Ramattra is so interesting, they both have counterplay for each other.

24:00 wow crazy that Blizzard made a sound effect for that interaction

I like that Ramattra both has a strength and weakness against barriers with pummel going through them and his ult being blocked and potentially negated entirely.

Thank you, Professor Emongg for all the time and effort it took to deliver the highest quality educational Overwatch 2 content to debunk all of those TikTokers who are about to spread misinformation.

I love that we get an anti shield tank when the game removed double shield tank meta.

Since you can pummel through Winston shield: can you hit both sides of the shield effectively doing twice the damage to it?

Also love the nod to the new map as you guys have been showcasing this hero!

i love the occasional awkwardness between him and flats the awkward moment during wrecking ball's bit is my fav in the vid so far (halfway through)

zaryas sheild being able to block the punches is massive

Weird thing with Overwatch slows (other than the new Mei freeze) is that they usually just subtract a fixed amount from the movement speed, rather than reducing it by a percentage. This seems like a sensible way to do it in order to affect all abilities evenly, and for a debuff applied for a fixed amount of time, it is. The problem is every overwatch slow ever apart from that weird Junkrat trap snare in the beta has been an AOE. This causes a feedback loop that makes them much more effective the slower your base speed. This is why it seems to have no effect on Doom punch. They could make it more even either by making it a percentage reduction or causing the slow to be applied for a fixed amount of time if you come in contact with the ability. As an example, let’s say your ability has a speed of 1 m/s and you need to move 10 meters to exit the slow, normally this would take you (10/1) = 10 seconds. If the slow applies a flat 0.5 reduction your new speed will be 0.5 and it will now take you (10/0.5) = 20s to exit the slow, twice as long. Now let’s say your ability has a speed of 10 m/s, normally it would take you (10/10) = 1s to exit the slow. After the slow is applied you have a speed of 9.5, so it now takes you (10/9.5) = 1.053s to exit the slow, which is hardly a difference at all. In other words the increase in time to to exit the slow is (10/0.53) = 190x greater for the slower ability. This is because the slow is both a 10x bigger percentage of the first ability and is applied for 19x as long. This seems weird and unintuitive in game because most things in nature are not like this. If you read all this congrats u get a gold star :)

I was hoping his nemesis punches were more like heavy zen orbs that traveled slowly but hit like freight trains

Love how Winston hops around like a frog lol

Thank you so much for such a detailed video ☺️

Ram 1v1 during his ult just made Moira 1v1s look interesting 😂 Thanks for your myth busting video, I always find them more helpful than people just showing their gameplay

I honestly can't decide if I'm relieved, or disappointed that Ramattra's not as strong as we thought...

His vortext mainly applies to upward movements, any kind of horizontal movement is just slightly messed with

Can't wait to try Ramattra!

As you can see, this is a nice informal vid!

I didn't even think about his punch going through Brigitte's shield. At least her shield blocks his ult and she can easily shield bash away from him (pre-ult, since facing away probably triggers ult)/whip shot him away while he is ulting to help everyone get away in time.

we may start to see Rien players charging an unlting Ramatrra off the map lol

As you can see, this was an informative video

Take a shot every time he says 'as you can see' . awesome vid btw thanks 👌

Them Lucios that wall run in the objective to contest are sweating hard now xd

Ramatra's field feels pretty worthless. I think it would be MUCH more valuable if it was a single target ability that "locks on" like a Brig repair pack and grounded a single target, because let's face it, the field is too small and too short lived for it to realistically ground more than 1 target anyways, and as a slow/damage field it's weak and easy to just walk out of (or just stand in it, it doesn't do enough damage to be worth giving up a decent position) while also being entirely too hard to throw a projectile with travel time at the ground UNDER a flying target. It would be a much more valuable skill if it just grounded a single target for a length of time making those targets easier to hit for a few seconds.

Surprise Flanking Ramaytra ult sounds delicious :3

Hearing Ramattra say, "Devour them," reminds me of Rykard from Elden Ring. Is that just me?

I think hes going to be a skilled hero to learn, people are saying he is weak now, but once people start to understand him, he's going to be crazy.

Does anyone behind a Zarya bubble get hit with punches? EX: You stand behind Zarya/Someone with her bubble and Ramattra uses his punch, will it go through the bubble and hit you? Great video btw, very informative and funny.

Really looking forward to two a hole rammattras ult blocking each other for half the game while everyone else tries to dodge the large aoe

24:02 I laughed so hard at that. That sound 🤣🤣🤣

does sym wall work the same as the shields when it comes to his nemesis form and ultimate?

Drinking game: Take a shot every time emongg says 'As you can see'

If you want to know how pummel works an pretty sure it is scripted like a melee attack but it has more range. So that's why it goes through barriers but not zarya bubble it also probably doesn't go through orisa javelin spin. Though I could be wrong

I think it need more focus on the transformation, maybe he gets a burst of speed when transforming, maybe healing, maybe blocking melee strikes returns damage to the agressor... stuff like that.

Great mythbusters emongg and flats. I really miss the double tanking duo.

Love the mythbusting, but I’m also curious about patch notes and balance! Any plans to have a vid on that tonight?

What happens if you are under a vortex? Like if it is dropped at the edge of a cliff such as like on Well with Lucio wallriding under it.

I was really hoping he would be a much harder counter to pharaoh with his shield and grounding abilities but it seems to not be the case

Vortex seems inconsistent with movement abilities.

Can't wait to try him out in 3-4 weeks when I finally unlock him! 🤣

i cant wait to see how strong ramatraa ult will be in over time

Does pummel go through genji deflect? Also Moira ult and vortex interaction.

With the way syms wall blocks damage, does it block the slow too?

That tiny zen from a far running out from spawn just to test something is cute ngl

Question: since the punches go through shields do they go through Genji deflect?

crazy timing at the end

I wonder, does the vortex affect thrown abilities (Ana nade, Sym turrets, Mei ult, etc). Also in the extremely doubtful but maybe category any primary/secondary fires with mass (mei icicles, torbs primary and ult, Etc)

What I want to know is if Ramattra can be stunned out of Ult or Nemisis while the animation plays. Or because it is a transformation ability, does it just go through anyway?

PSA: Ramattra has a quick melee while in nemesis form, he hits you with the side of his fist

Vortex reminds me of a low ceiling that you can bonk your head on. Anything vertical is a no go, but horizontally works fine

Can you test damage boosts in the future?

I wanna know if vortex slows a friendly roadhog hook when you pull the enemy towards you

How does his ult interact with Protection Suzu and vortex with Pharah ult?

so vortex basically sets all vertical velocity to 0 inside it, and slows horizontal speed by whatever 30%. it also takes a whole second to cast the ability and the field to appear and only lasts 3 seconds. and it can be blocked by barriers and eaten by deflect/matrix type abilities. i wonder if it can be used on roof type surfaces or if it needs to be cast on solid ground.

What happens when youre below 150 hp in nemesis form and switch back? Do you die or does it keep the same hp you had before switching? I did some tests and cannot understand how they programmed this

I'm guessing his nemesis block is like Doom's block? You can get slept, pinned, javelined and so on? And is his vortex orb (before it hits the ground) blocked by shields?

The reason it way slowing Ball so much was because he was moving upwards where most of the resistance is in vortex. If you just went along the ground I bet it would barely slow

why does ramattra's ult look like a powerwalking grandma with 1 pound weights in her hands

You needed one more interaction still Does Zen ult count as a target still for Annihilation?

Rammatra seems very balanced

Glad for the confirmation that vortex does nothing to dooms punch. I thought I was going crazy in game. It would be nice if it did drastically shorten its range. It would make ramattra a decent doom counter

Lúcio can actually wall ride, it’s just when he jumps it pulls him down before you can latch onto the wall. If you wall ride before the vortex you’ll stay on the wall as you slide through it. 23:50

I have a patch note concept for Ramattra that completely changes the character, with the TRUE idea of the meaning, Tempo tank, two completely different play-styles. Any questions or recommendations, I'm open to comments... Void Accelerator: Damage goes from 4.5 to 8 Cannot critical Ammo: 60 Reload speed increased from 1 second to 2.2 seconds Void Barrier: Allow a toggle placement option similar to Mei's wall Duration goes from 4 to 5.5 seconds Cooldown is 9 seconds if broken, if the duration is depleted, the cooldown is 15 seconds Nemesis Form: 0.6 seconds of transformation time between in and out of Omnic and Nemesis form Heals 8% of health and grants 120 armor instead of 150 armor. 150 armor will be granted if Ramattra has full health. 1.5 seconds of initial +48% movement speed on cast of the abiility Pummel: Projectile damage goes from 60 to 50 "Melee range" or melee damage deals 90 damage Block: Movement speed goes from -50% to -30% Can block stuns and projectiles 90% damage reduction from the front and cannot be stunned, booped, or slept (Also make it so Doomfist cannot be slept or stunned while blocking please) Back opens a critical spot covering a large portion of Ramattra's back similar to Bastion that takes 1.5x more damage (Getting second thoughts about this part of the block...) Ravenous Vortex: Removed from the game and replaced by new abilities, Higher Authority, and Better Future Better Future: (Omnic form only) -A new ability that allows Ramattra to stab his Void Accelerator into the ground giving his allies a cooldown reduction while giving himself increased movement speed. Radius of 8 meters Duration of movement speed is 5 seconds Cooldown is 18 seconds and starts when the ability is active Ally cooldown is reduced by 80% (normal is 100%) and has no cooldown, a one-and-done ability. Effects wear off only for that ability meaning if one ability is gained but another one hasn't, the effects only apply to the ability on cooldown. Also has no effect on ultimate. Higher Authority: (Nemesis form only) -A new ability that allows Ramattra to hover in the air and slam the ground creating a nano-infested area that traps enemies in the field unless they destroy an orb left on the ground that Ramattra slammed into the ground. Can only be used once in Nemesis form. There is no cooldown and is regained when transformed into Nemesis form again. (Nano-infested area will not appear during Annihilation) Hover duration is 2 seconds and lifts Ramattra 9 meters in the air Slam distance is 6 meters closest range and 11 meters at the furthest range. Slam deals 74 damage with a damaging radius of 3 meters but 30% damage increase to Tanks, can be blocked with barriers. Nano-infested area is a 14-meter radius and 11 meters in height (might have to be lowered) that enemies cannot get out of unless the orb on the ground is destroyed. Nano-infested area deals no damage Nano-infested area applies a debuff that gives all enemies trapped inside -32% firerate and -17% movement speed Orb has 35hp and is a 1.5 meter orb on the ground Annihilation: -During Omnic Form: Launch a projectile out of staff that can be leeched onto an enemy, and has the same damaging effects. In other words, this might start another pandemic... Projectile travel speed of 38 meters a second If attached to an enemy: Duration is infinite and lasts as long as that enemy is alive. (Protection Suzu can cure the effect, but the projectile will drop to the ground) Deals 22 damage a second to attached target, and 37 damage a second to enemies around that target Radius of 8.5 meters If attached to a surface: (Or detached by Protection Suzu) Deals 25 damage per second Radius of 12 meters Duration of 11 seconds -During Nemesis form: Same effect as original Radius increased from 11 meters to 12.5 meters On cast, the duration will not go down until at least one enemy has been damaged by the ultimate Now has a counter on the screen on how many enemies are within the radius If at least three enemies come into the radius, all enemies within are slowed by -30% All other damage that Ramattra deals aside from his ultimate is decreased by 8% Side Notes: Nano-boost doesn't affect ultimate damage, Block cannot eat projectiles, just absorb the damage like any other shield Thank you if you read through all of it, I would make one of these for every hero if I had the time, I missed an essay because of this...

How are people saying to nerf him already? He's actually just bad, even Flats said this on his video. Easily cut LOS or put up a shield, and the ult gets cut. He doesn't do much damage, vortex kinda sucks ass tbh considering it's easy to get away from, shield is just worse sigma shield with more health, nemesis can definitely be tanky if you block, but then you get no value except taking more damage tbh, and his normal form also isn't that good. Up close? He loses to Rein, and Hog easily, and Rein isn't that good at all. Poke comps? Sigma is literally just better, most people will probably play him for fun and new character, but he doesn't look to be near good now, especially in this meta, most players may also pick him just because they don't want to play Hog, who's now just the god of tanks. Oh, and did I mention his primary fire is technically delayed? Yep, his tracing is under a delay with the nanobots.

Interesting interaction thought when watching Mei. Will her wall push the shield up?

As you can see, this is an educational video.

I wonder if Lucio's ult would cast faster in vortex? Vortex may pull him down quicker during the jump of the animation?

Does Brig's shield bash get slowed going out of Vortex?

15:09 "Your miscalculation will co-"

It seems to me with rammatra's E Any movement ability that stays on the ground and moves them a certain distance instead of just adding movespeed buff, wont be affected. A good example will be rocket punch and d.vas boosters or orisa spin

Doom one trick here. Slam inside of vortex is going to be awesome. Let’s you slam right in front of people. Facing ramattras are going to be so fun for doom mains

Does the punch form block cc like hook?

11:05 does it count for ramattras shield aswell?

Regarding Ana: I assume Block, just like Doomfists power block, cannot prevent sleep dart?

Will Pharahs ult be pulled down also?

what about reapers teleport out, is it same speed or slowed?

Are characters with protection suzu considered to be inside Ramattra's ultimate?

For future testing, it'd be better to look at slows like vortex from a side angle where changes in speed are more obvious.

Mercy can Gradian angel out of the vortex faster than that, but only if you dont go up, if you GA to a friend outside of the vortex thats on the ground she GA's right out of it with little problems. Just a fun tip ^^

Everyone was crying for no reason lmao

It only restricts SOME vertical movement but horizontal movement still works

But what happens when rematra ults with balls mines out, Do they count as the damage to pause ult timer?

Vibes to Gerudo Valley- Best CatJam hands down

“As you can see” counter over 9000

Fun fact: Ramattra ult damages thru Zenyatta’s ult. I’m not sure if it slows down the damage tick but if you’re on Zen’s team, you’ll have to kill Ramattra before Zen’s ult finishes.

I think flats took that a little personal with reinhardt lol

Does an ulting Zen count towards annihilation?

does zen ult count during ramatra's ult?

im assuming sym wall will block ult? and also zen ult will cancel his ult? or just keep them alive during ult -so not cancelling his ult?

Does an ulting Zen count towards Ram's ult?

Does the punch do damage through grasp?
