There’s a good reason that Pharah is one of the hardest Overwatch characters, and that’s her dependency on movability and counters. Pharah can be a real nuisance due to her constant evading, explosive damage, and flying, but mastering her balance of fuel and firepower is no easy t
Junkertown, as featured in Junkrat and Roadhog’s excellent cinematic, returns to Overwatch 2 in all its glory. Attacking players must escort a cart of jewels and gold that’s not-so-subtly booby trapped with dynamite, while defenders have to protect the Junker Queen’s home t
This is an obvious one for experienced Overwatch players, but less so for beginners . Almost everyone has experienced a frustrating game where your teammates just won’t stick to the objective. Remember, the robot only makes progress when somebody is accompanying
Push is a tricky game mode to get the hang of, as it’s very different from the other modes in Overwatch 2 Story 2. The tips listed here will help you figure out which heroes to use, and the best strategies needed to overcome your enem
While you’ll need to use Coach Gun to get some distance between you and the enemy, you have to choose the perfect time for this . Here are a few scenarios where using this ability at the wrong time can go wr
Getting back into the fight after dying on a Push map can take much longer than any other map. As such, it’s important that you don’t die, rush back into the fight without your team, and immediately get sent back to spawn. You should always engage as a gr
I’ve finally finished reviewing [REDACTED] so now I’m free to play games I’ll hopefully enjoy. When my friends are busy I’ll be playing Scorn, the icky body-horror experience that looks like an Alien fever dream and fetishist utopia. When my friends are free, I’ll be diving into Overwatch 2 finally. Time to see what all the fuss is ab
Being a supporting character in Overwatch 2 is no easy task, and Baptiste is a stellar reason why. Baptiste has a lot going for him, and many different ways for him to fight. Baptiste may have to balance healing and damage simultaneously, but it’s what makes him a very good support charac
The busy gamer season is almost upon us, but I’m also going on holiday next week and leaving my colleagues to fend for themselves. So, in my last weekend as a gamer on the homestead, I’ll be digging into a cute and fruity game about making potions that I can talk about soon, while starting a second playthrough of Scorn on Xbox Series X to scoop up all the achievements I missed during the review period. Of course, I’ll also fit in some Overwatch 2 for good meas
Your ultimate is the most powerful tool in your arsenal, so it makes sense to use it to get the leg up in a fight. However, this also means that it often isn’t worth it to stack several ultimates on top of each other. A team rarely needs more than two or maybe three at a time to win any given fi
From the sound of it, Cassidy’s ultimate sounds broken since it can one-shot multiple enemies within a couple of seconds . But your positioning can make this ability completely useless. It is important to make sure that you can have a line of sight on more than one character when you decide to use the abil
When the enemy notices that you’re playing as Ashe, they’ll most likely try to get close to you. This is because mid-range and long-range combats are her forte, but she suffers when an enemy gets too close . In these situations, it is important to keep yourself calm and compos
One of the most common mistakes you can make while learning Cassidy is forgetting one of the elements of your dash . It is a great skill for mobility when you have to quickly run back to the fighting area from your spawn, but the instant reload is what makes this ability the best part of his k
Dorado hasn’t received many changes in Overwatch 2, beyond its new color palette. The map is now cast in sunlight, rather than taking place in nighttime. Still, Dorado is a classic escort map that’s great to learn on for beginners , and no sweeping changes are needed to make it any bet
Both the robot and the barricade it pushes are solid objects, and will stop bullets, explosives, and charge-happy Reinhardts . For both attackers and defenders, the robot is the most consistent source of cover you’ll find on the map, doubly so if it’s pushing a barric
Lucio is a high target due to his small size and lack of health, but mastering him sure is a reliable tactic for teams. Lucio is one of the best support characters in Overwatch 2 , and he’s a hard one to play due to his movability and target
Because decisively winning fights is so important on Push, picking the right counter to take out a key member of the enemy team will make things much easier. Always look for opportunities to switch and turn the tides, especially since you now retain up to 30 percent of your ultimate’s charge after switch
