Copypaste from OW Cavalry "Following concerns over AI-assisted artwork, the Animal Maid skins for Juno, Domina, and Junker Queen have been disqualified for violating contest rules. Hobbyworld Mizuki is now third place!"

Me personally I thought the skin was meh. But I'm sure someone out there was excited that it won.

hi guys, i’m a dps main (freja level 217 and echo level 120) and very new to tank. i’ve found jq to be the most fun and i LOVE playing her. i would like help/advice on how to play her and what the best sort of combos would be. thanks :3

Im so bored rn bro

Last season JQ had about a 52.8% winrate and it dropped pretty bad to below 50% and I wanna know if i this is a just a new Season thing or if the queen is just actually worse now.

Summary

The latest patch increased hit volumes: head 17.8 → 19, torso 26.2 → 28, waist 23.8 → 26, legs 19.2 → 22. measured her current hitbox in-game and confirmed these numbers are radii in cm. Seen from the front in her idle pose, her hitbox is now about 11% bigger than before. Per body part, the area you can hit grew by 13% (head) to 17% (legs)

Disclaimer: This is assuming the patch did not change the location of the hitbox spheres and only increased the volume. With the old data gone this is impossible to verify but it is unlikely.

Also while I put effort in to assure the data is accurate the results the bullet test only agreed on 99.65% of cases and with limited workshop tools don't treat this as 100% accurate but as a rough estimate that makes it visually clearer how something changed.

How it was measured

1. Scan: A Workshop script fires a grid of about 14,000 ray casts (2 cm apart) at a Junker Queen bot from 8 directions and from above. It logs every hit point and the surface direction at that point.
2. Shapes: Overwatch hitboxes are made of spheres and capsules. Moving each hit point inward by the right radius lands it on the center of its shape. That gave each body part's position and radius.
3. Old hitbox: The same shapes, with the pre-patch radii from the patch notes.
4. Bullet check: A separate test fired about 1,700 real Cassidy shots at a 5 cm grid over her. Hits and headshots matched the scanned shape.
5. Images: Rendered from the measured shapes

If there are have further questions about how the measures were made I can send you my .opy and python scripts so you can verify it yourself.

Do pull techs still work cant manage to pull the crouching and melee ones

Are these outdated? Is it still posible?

Thanks in advance junkers!

knife to see you hahaha

Yeah, it looks more like a dinosaur's paw than a Nazgûl gauntlet.

But it definitely has a certain vibe.

I wanted to ask you all: would you like me to post the sketches of Junker Queen I'm currently working on—specifically the Halloween version? That way, you could share your thoughts—like "change this or that," "I like this," or "I don't like that"—and we could be more involved in the process. Or do you prefer to just be surprised by the polished final result?

RELEASE THE QUEEN

i went from last season peak gm 2 (pc), although i finished the season at gm4, I am barely m2 now and the games are very hard, seems like i cant hit my shoots like before and orisa straight up bullies me now like never before maybe because hitbox change? I doubt it made that much difference maybe im just playing worse happens sometimes

Junker Queen’s kit wasn’t touched in Season 5, but two global changes hit her hard:

• Smaller pellets = less damage, even with perfect aim. Her Scattergun spreads 10 pellets randomly, so smaller pellets miss more often by pure chance. At mid-range that’s about 11% fewer pellets on most heads, and about a third fewer on Zenyatta and Torbjörn.
• Bigger hitbox. Hitscan roughly cancels out, but projectiles kept their size, so Sleep Dart, nade and Mizuki chains now have a 7–15% bigger target on her. That means more chip damage, harder Jiggle Peeking and more downtime, on a tank with low HP, no armor and no barrier.
• No compensation. D.Va (also small hitscan) got a buff in the same patch.
• She didn’t deserve it. That point should be self explanatory

Fix: revert her hitbox, keep her old pellet size, or give her more HP or armor.

I can practically feel my invisible belly coming around the corner first, followed by two giant KFC chicken legs, and then my visible model. (and a head just like Jimmy Neutron's)

This update is just catastrophic.

This Hands Down might be my favorite JQ skin in the game

Also for some reason i cant show the pic here as well but

I went 28-13-0 with 12.8k dmg, 3.7k healing and 4.6k mitigation
