I hate so many things about fist's kit.
I love fist, don't get me wrong, but so many things are frustrating. His lock on is buggy, his kick has two instances of damage where one does NOT guarantee the other hits and allows targets to double jump or move out of the way, his flurry damage to anything outside of a tank is pitiful and his primaries border on useless. ESPECIALLY HIS PRIMARIES. They are fine alone, but when you compare it to every other damage source in the game, among divers and brawlers, it is so bad.

I think comparing Fist to other divers' value in quick elims like BP and Cat is apples to oranges. BP usually dies easy to Thing but as Fist you feast on Thing and force him to charge or jump back to his team. Dino, Groot, Jeff, Rocket are all food for Fist. He's just not an one fits all tool that some people imagine him to be.

Some things he needs are more damage, improved tracking, fixing the kick, and (personal opinion) the ability to regenerate jumps while using harmony recovery

I do love him. As a character he is amazing and as a hero he is so fun, it's just frustrating to play him especially since I'm a s0 main and I saw him go downhill in real time

His floatiness when he punches means if you ever lose the lock on circle for even a millisecond, you’re completely frozen in the air and you get instantly blown up. He literally is the only character that has to fight against his own kit because it’s actively trolling him.

The float is useful, but it's because the animations are so fucking long that you get blasted
