Doomfist (Overwatch)

Recently freed from imprisonment, Doomfist is determined to plunge the world into a new conflict that he believes will make humanity stronger. Akande Ogundimu was born into a well-regarded Nigerian family, heir to its prosthetic-technology company. A highly intelligent and charismatic figure, Ogundimu helped to expand his family's business and position it for the future while dedicating his free time to his first love: competitive martial arts. He trained in traditional African fighting styles, including Dambe and Gidigbo, as well as in wrestling and other modern combat systems, incorporating the most effective techniques into his repertoire. Ogundimu competed in tournaments all over the continent, utilizing his intuition and ability to read opponents alongside his tremendous speed and strength. But when he lost his right arm in the aftermath of the Omnic Crisis, it seemed his martial arts career was finished before he had reached his prime. His company's cybernetic prosthetics allowed him to recover from his injuries, even making him stronger, but these enhancements rendered him ineligible for competition. He tried to devote himself to his business with the same zeal that he had for fighting, but he found nothing that could fill the void… until he was given a new opportunity by Akinjide Adeyemi, better known to the world as the second Doomfist, the Scourge of Numbani. Adeyemi offered Ogundimu the chance to fight with him as a mercenary. Initially wary, Ogundimu accepted, and discovered that he now had an arena in which he could unleash his enhanced capabilities. Eventually, Adeyemi brought him into the Talon organization. Talon's belief that humanity would be made stronger through conflict resonated with Ogundimu's personal experiences. Moreover, Talon's power struggles presented a new challenge that allowed him to use his talent in the boardroom along with his cunning as a combatant. Adeyemi was a useful asset to Talon, but the organization saw far greater potential in Ogundimu, with his intelligence and his ability to inspire as a commander. While Adeyemi was content to profit from raids on Numbani, Ogundimu had a grander vision. This difference in aspiration would lead Ogundimu to kill his teacher and take on the mantle of Doomfist, along with the eponymous gauntlet. As the new Doomfist, Ogundimu rose high in Talon and helped to orchestrate a conflict that the organization hoped would someday engulf the world. However, before their plan came to fruition, Ogundimu was defeated and captured by an Overwatch strike team that included Tracer, Winston, and Genji. He was imprisoned in a maximum-security facility for years, where he waited patiently for events he had incited to play out. Finally, he sensed that the time had come for him to return. He broke out of his prison and recovered Doomfist's gauntlet in a one-sided battle with Numbani's newly unveiled OR15 defense robots. Now, he has retaken his place in Talon's inner council, ready to spark a war that will consume the world once again.

**Abilities**:

Hand canon: has a four shot shotgun that has a recharge if he is out of combat

Best defence is…: using seismic slam, rising uppercut, rocket punch and meteor strike gives him more health

Seismic slam: slams on the ground, dealing damage in a cone. Deals more damage the higher he is

Rising uppercut: Shoryukens enemies upwards into the sky

Rocket punch: winds up and charges, knocking enemies away, dealing extra damage if they hit a wall.

Meteor strike: leaps far into the sky, and later come crashing down, dealing damage to all enemies to close to his drop zone

He also knows a lot of hand to hand combat

**Strategy**:

Doomfist target the week, killing the with a few blows, and leaving the tank to eat all the bullets. Once Doomfist uses up all his abilities, he only has his weak hand canon, dodge first, strike second. He is great with an offensive team.

**Pros**  **Cons**
Kill weak enemies quick No range
Rushes enemies to fast to react He is very aggressive to any robot, including allies
Doomfist is just as smart as he is dangerous If he uses all his abilities at once, he can’t really defend himself

**Where does he fit**

1. Melee Expert
2. Team Leader
3. Tactician
