OP is right. I have countless games on Tracer and also play Li Ming. I die less to Tracer than I ever have as a mage since I know how Tracer plays.
You might get taken out by Tracer if:
- You continue to fight in a lost engage and get tunnel vision rather than backing off.
- You fight past the center point and you weren’t watching the mini map. Chill! You don’t NEED to push that tower. Ever heard of a gank? Watch the mini map. If Tracer is in mid and you are in bot and you are putting pressure on the dude in your lane. Tracer is coming - don’t get caught out.
Do:
- Position in such a way that it would be expensive for her to get to you. If it’s a little risky, she will just charge her pulse bomb on the tank and ignore you.
- Everyone should AA her EVERYTIME she is in range. One AA from the team will take half her health.
TBH I see so many mistakes around Tracer it is aggravating.
Gengi is harder to play against because he can jump in and be immune to stuns and team AA.
EDIT:
ALSO: Look around you! Do you have 25% health? Is there a safe place at your 3 oclock for Tracer because your team is 9 oclock? You’re gonna die. Think.
