Pharah’s playstyle in Overwatch 2 is fairly simple; she excels from the skies, raining damage from above with her long-range explosive Rocket Launcher. While there’s a bit of a learning curve when it comes to her flight, this also makes her tough to hit, giving players a nice safety net. Her attacks yield AoE splash damage, so accuracy isn’t that important, though she does deal more damage if she lands her shots directly onto an en
While he feels amazing to play, Cassidy can be quite hard to master because almost all of his abilities have a high skill ceiling . The first reason for this is the requirement of a good aim. You only have six shots in a magazine , so you automatically have to make them co
By far the easiest support to use in the game, Mercy’s healing is extremely powerful and efficient , being able to completely save characters with critical health during dire situations. She can also choose to increase damage instead of healing, helping your teammates to perform even better than before. She can be quite mobile, though her mobility relies on having allies around her, and her ultimate allows her to heal or increase damage to multiple allies at o
Even beyond all these properties, though, Blizzard World is just a fun map to play on. It’s filled with tons of nooks and crannies that allow for engagements to happen all over the map. This dynamic design makes it chaotic, but never frustrating to play
Taking place in New York, midtown is filled to the brim with taxi cabs, fire trucks, and police cars that make it feel almost entirely abandoned. This makes it a perfect playground for Overwatch, though, as you get to fight it out in a wide-open
Overwatch 2 divides all of its heroes into three types of roles: Damage, Tank, and Support . One look at Cassidy and his appearances in the game’s cinematics, and you can tell that he doesn’t belong to the Tank or Support role . Cassidy is one of the many Damage characters present in the g
The idea here is that, though they’re both snipers, both Widowmaker and Hanzo can instantly kill someone (who isn’t a tank) in a single hit through a headshot. They can get rid of almost everyone with nothing but good aim, and their abilities can also help them a lot in tight situations. They can even help one another through the see-through-wall abilities they both present. The large cover of Widowmaker’s Infra-Sight would pair perfectly with Hanzo’s Dragonstrike Ultimate since it can pass through solid surfa
Talking about positioning, another thing to keep in mind is that Cassidy doesn’t have an easy escape . His dash is extremely short, and it can be easily overestimated if you’re trying him out for the first ti
Another good tank to start with, Roadhog became a very difficult character to kill in Overwatch 2. He has the biggest health bar in the game, and one ability that heals 50 percent of your max health in a short time. His famous hook also allows you to get a quick kill among the squishy charact
A few characters in the game get a special passive. The same passive might be shared written by Battlemccarthy different characters, but all characters aren’t lucky enough to get their own unique passive . Cassidy is one of the many characters in the game without this special passi
All that said, Torbjorn himself is good at both long and close range and can control areas with his ultimate. Symmetra will be better at picking off whoever passes the defenses since she excels at close range, and she can use her ultimate to prevent teammates and turrets/sentries from being destro
The original Overwatch was pretty generous when it came to characters. From the jump, you could choose any hero. Of course, they were of varying difficulties to play, so you may not start out “good” at them, but the option was always open to
Widowmaker has a very simple kit , with an ability for maneuverability, a mine to kill or guard your surroundings, and a “wall-hack” as an ultimate. Still, she’s one of the few characters that can one-shot people in the game so, if you have proper aiming, you can headshot everyone and dominate the game. Alternatively, you have the other sniper, Hanzo, but he’s trickier to play w
It’s the assault and the flanker, all in one place. These two characters couldn’t be more different, and that’s why they work well together. Cassidy is powerful from up close and afar and can cause a lot of damage if you aim properly at people’s heads. Not to mention his combat roll (and ultimate, if you’re willing to ditch it) gives him fast ammo recovery allowing him to keep firing almost non-stop for a long t
There are two reasons to pick a certain character in Overwatch 2 apart from their role: design and abilities . While Cassidy’s design is phenomenal, he also has a great set of abilities that include his weapon, active abilities, ultimate, and role passi
Overwatch evolved over the years, giving us new heroes and new modes, but it always felt the same. It became familiar and comforting. Then Overwatch 2 dropped and shook everything up, for some older players, the game may feel unrecognizable. The characters you love now play completely differently and the vibe is just…differ
