Yeah Hanzo is a big no-no when it comes to jumping the DPS, even Eskay said the same

You boop. You are a frog and it is your duty to boop.

yeah your right but with none of his abilities it make a lot easier for me at lest

Don’t jump a Hanzo full stop. There are certain heroes that you should just avoid as Lucio.

McCree is a big no-no. He’ll win the fight almost every time.

Hanzo will almost alway shred you too.

Hog is just a waste of time to fight. Even if he doesn’t hit the hook it’s unlikely he’ll be anything other than free ult for you.

Ashe is also usually painful to fight too if she has either of her cooldowns up.

I don’t face Ashe she just annoying for me to fight meccree I bait the flash and then enjoy the meal.

If the enemy rein is stupid you can get his attention for like 15 seconds, that could win a teamfight

I’ve been running into many Reddit Lucio’s lately, what changed?

He’s basically a good mobility dps with speed and AoE heal as utility. He always was more of a dps than a support. I wish he would have his damage doubled and speed kept the same with AoE heal removed, and switched to damage role. He’d be a good alternative to Tracer, unfortunately I’m forced to heal if I pick him, but if he was in damage role that wouldn’t be the case

Instructions unclear, I ended up jumping a hanzo with all his abilities up.

Don’t get shattered or emp’d with an ult. i.e. Play little safe, hide behind some corner or play away from the team when you know emp is about to come. Same goes for zen. Never rely on your rein to block shatters, they never do. Could wall ride or stay at some high ground for that.

Also, lucio hops and hits the ground to activate sound barrier. It hits faster when you are facing up a ramp. Little detail but saves some ms. Also works on small objects.

get good at wallriding

Spam choke to build ult quicker when you can’t think of anything else as it charges very slow

Protect your teammates from flankers, boop them away

Booping enemies from high ground is underrated. For e.g. booping reins and mcrees into the pit on hanamura B.

Try to make use of speed as much as possible. Speed boost the team across the choke and into the enemy team, especially if your team has rein zarya.

UNLESS…? UNLESS…? UNLoh I died

it is my right as a reddit lucio to jump the hanzo when ever and where ever i want. will i die? yes. will i tea bag him and drop a “sus” in the chat after i finally manage to get a lucky killing blow after 8 deaths? yes.

DON’T USE SOUND BARRIER AGAINST HIGH NOON!

You will die 99 times out of 100 unless you do some insane hop-up to the payload to cast it faster…Out of 300+ hours on lucio, I’ve only achieved this twice.

High noon can kill you in 0.2 seconds; Sound Barrier takes 0.8 seconds to cast

I’m sick of yo rulz!

there not rule this a guide you don’t have to follow it
