Overwatch Secret Tricks To Help Improve Your Game
Overwatch was released back in 2016, but judging by a new video from Blizzard, there's a lot more to discover in the game and fresh tricks that will let you get the better of your opponents.
A new video from the channel goes into detail about each hero in the game and how to upgrade them with a trick or technique. While some of the information in the video is fairly well known, such as using Mccree's Deadeye Ultimate to reboot, there are some methods that even pro gamers will love.
One of the more interesting tips is for the Baptiste meta support. As Nate explained, you can shoot and heal at the same time. By taking two shots with your pistol and releasing a healing grenade, you won't lose any of your potential heals per second. In big teamfights where maximizing your action can be critical, this trick will ensure you balance the damage and keep your team on top.
With Hanzo, one of the best ways to survive is to look down and right or left to reverse your head hitbox, making it much more difficult to take out the enemy quickly with headshots.
Nate added that this technique works incredibly well for duels and is something you should definitely consider if you're in a sniper fight and want to avoid one-shot death.
For me, For Mei is more than just a tool to split the enemy team. Abilities such as Batista's Immortal Field, Torbjorn's Tower, and Orissa Ultimate Supercharger can be blocked by For Mei. This is great for quickly removing an obstacle that gives your opponents an edge.
Of course, with this knowledge, Orisa players would be wise to wait until Mei's wall is restored before putting down their supercharger.
One of the best tips in the guide is for Reinhardt. If you hold down the button while charging, you will shorten the animation of the ability you are trying to use at the end of it. This can lead to some mean and quick destruction of the Earth, blows of fire or blows of a hammer.
A final tip worth noting is that with Sombra, if you use the cape and then reload it right after, you can throw your translocator without animation. This can save time and help optimize your kit. This is a little trick that can help you catch your enemies by surprise.
There's a lot to unpack here, but if you're looking to take your game to the next level, this knowledge can make all the difference.
With Season 20 of Overwatch Competitive starting January 2nd, these tips can help you rise and achieve your career.
