This is a list of challenges for players who want to spice up their gameplay. It is a personal minigame to see if players can achieve victory by completing various tasks that limit a hero’s effectivity.
Keep in mind this is not meant to cripple yourself or to force a loss. I by no means encourage throwing as a rational playstyle.
It is a tasklist meant to show how to best manage and control a hero while also showing mastery of an entire kit. Not just spamming a particular ability or trait from one hero.
With that out of the way let’s move on to the challenges.
One mech, One pilot Dva
-You cannot recall your mech once it is destroyed. Dva can only reclaim her mech once she respawns. Win a match without using two mechs on a single life. Loss condition: Using Baby Dva’ ultimate. (To prevent misclick losses, Dva can summon her mech outside of a battle, but must suicide to reset the conditions. Negating any 1 point of damage or dealing 1 point of damage is considered a loss.) “Mechs do not come out of an assembly line.”
Irreplaceable! Orisa
-A rare commodity should be treasured. You now only have one life as Orisa. Win a match as an immortal Orisa. Loss condition: respawning once. “Parts are expensive man and Effie cannot just rebuild another hero out of nowhere.”

-Roadhog has no more healing cans left. Win a match without healing via gas cans. Loss condition: Self healing as Roadhog. (To negate misclick losses Roadhog may use his heal at full health. Utilizing it for any 1 point of missing health to heal is a loss.) “How do you carry so mush junk Roadie?!”

(To avoid accidental losses, Hammond is allowed to fire and shoot outside of ballform, but may not be able to move around. Knockbacks and pulls do not count as Hammond’s movement.
