Filter by role

tank / Frontline space

Reinhardt

His barrier can cover a team crossing a dangerous sightline. Use nearby cover and check who is ready to follow before moving forward.

Keep in mind

A barrier is a limited resource. It does not replace a retreat route.

tank / Mobile protection

D.Va

Mobility helps D.Va contest an angle or return to a teammate under pressure. Look for a landing place before using that mobility to enter.

Keep in mind

A distant dive can leave teammates without help. Check the approach and the return.

damage / Off-angle pressure

Tracer

Tracer draws attention away from the main approach. Use cover between movements and keep an escape available when the enemy turns.

Keep in mind

A flank is useful when it changes the fight. Distance alone is not an advantage.

damage / Steady sightline pressure

Soldier: 76

A familiar rifle and sprint make it easier to practise useful angles. Choose a position with cover and a view of the same fight as your team.

Keep in mind

High ground can still be isolated. Notice who can reach you and where you can leave.

Original fan illustration introducing the support role

support / Ranged support and utility

Ana

Ana works best with a clear view of teammates and cover close by. Keep track of nearby threats before committing a defensive cooldown.

Keep in mind

A long sightline is not always a safe sightline. A second route helps against a flank.

Official hero details

support / Responsive protection

Kiriko

Kiriko can answer danger with Protection Suzu and reposition toward an ally. Decide which teammate will still offer a safe exit after the save.

Keep in mind

Spending every tool to arrive can leave nothing for the danger you arrived in.
