“IT’S A PERFECT DAY FOR SOME MAYHEM.”
We all know Junkrat is an explosives-obsessed freak who lives to cause chaos and destruction. And that’s why we love him, or atleast I do… BUT I feel like he needs just a tiny bit of work.
Here’s my idea!
Most of Junkrat’s kit is revolved around diving: dropping a mine below your feet and waiting for the cooldown to get up to two mines again and then detonate to make an explosive entrance! And if you die, you might even take someone with you because of your passive. What if we lean into that concept? What if we… gave him another bomb?
Stick Hand Grenade
Whip out a stick hand grenade and swing it in front of you. When the grenade comes into contact with an enemy or terrain, it blows up dealing AOE damage. After it blows up Junkrat and the targets hit receive a small knockup, flying upwards in the air.
I would probably have it replace Steel Trap, and Concussion Mine’s damage would have to be nerfed.
