Jump pad cooldown should be similar to Portal, Zipline, and Skyward Dive.

I know the very idea of this would * off Octane mains but having a Jump pad on its now nerfed 90 seconds is akin to having Portal, Zipline, and Skyward Dive on a 90-second cooldown, pre buff the extremely short cool down at 60 seconds really didn't matter due to jumping pad being weak but now it is a strong rotational tool.

Since Portal is 3.5 minutes, Skyward Dive is 3 minutes, and Zipline is 2 minutes that would leave Jump pad needing to have a CD of around 2-2.5 minutes ideally. To end this off all I'm gonna say is that there is a reason he has such a high pick rate and it goes beyond the simple excuse that he's "fun".

  • @HeyNameDoesntFi how is his win rate tho? having a high pick rate doesn't necessarily mean he's good. Look at competitive comps there's always a Gibby and he doesn't have as high play rate as Octane.
  • Increase the cooldown but give him the Wattson thing with the ultimate accelerants I would suggest.  If someone wants to bounce around the map constantly let them have half a bag full of Ultimate Accelerants.
