Let's Talk About Jenos And His Kit...

Imo. it's too much. I mean for a healer he is too strong.

His gun deals too much DMG. That Ulti is insane and Void Grip... how do you even escape that thing?? OMG.

Stun Jenos.
Silence Jenos
Kill Jenos

Don't forget that Resilence also reduces how long you're in his grip.

Then he probably is using The Power Cosmeum legendary which cripples (meaning you can't use any movement abilities) during the Void Grip

His Ulti is bassicly just a worse Janus Ult...Yea even the Ulti has the same name...creative issnt Jenus/Janus xD ;)

Anyways even with Janus its really to difficult to hit something and you can move during it....
Wioth jenus Ulti its worse...sure you can pull of some wombo combos but i think he is not that great....he should be able to move during it...and no this whould the ulti not make op

Viktor deals more damage, fires faster and has Firefight to make it even more powerful.

Jenos' ultimate is barely viable. Yes it deals 2400 damage, but it's kinda your fault you got hit by it. It gives you ample time to run away from it. Once Jenos activates, he can't change the direction of the shot. Plus there's a gigantic area that's VERY visible and the only way you can miss it is if you're literally blind. Pay attention to his Ultimate Voice line, and you'll escape it no problem.

Finally Void Grip can be easily avoided by just not getting too close to his range. Plus he can't do anything except move while he's chanelling Void Grip. If he isn't using The Power Cosmeum then use a movement skill.

And finally, his healing is below average, everyone heals faster per second. Mal Damba outmatches him in every single way except damage. He can heal faster, heal more, has an AoE heal, has a better escape skill and argueably a better/more useful ultimate.

I just came back after 8 months, so half the champions are new to me and i'm finding Jenos the most annoying by far. His Void Grip feels unfair, maybe a higher cooldown would make it more balanced.

Also, Torvald's Gauntlet is supposed to send me to the moon? It remembers me of Bomb King's Poppy Bomb.

I still fear Void Grip is there to further reduce time to kill by forcing players to die to competent teams or to buy Resilience and die faster to main types of damage through not investing in Haven / Blast Shields.

Jenos' ult is powerful when used in a team, especially during a crowd control moment, but you basically cannot reaim it and if the opponents aren't occupied with fighting for their lives you're prone to missing it entirely.

And yes, there are some maps where Torvald's hyper beam sends you into next week. That's part of its charm.
