In all honesty… Reinhardt?

I mean, hear me out. Good enemy Reinhardts seem to always block all damage with their shields, they always charge as unstoppable forces of Precision German Engineering™, and they’re always on top of me with the Hammer of Painful Death.

Me on the other hand, my shield always gets ripped into pieces within seconds and whenever I charge, seventeen bullets go through my skull and chest even before I could reach one (1) single enemy hero.

I juat don’t get how to be an effectivw, efficient, deadly, agressive Reinhardt, who also manages to save his teammates with his shield, protect his squishies, kill the enemy squishies and say the line “Precision German Engineering” on top of a pile of wnemy corpses?

Yeah I dont get rein either, he just feels weird to me,

I don’t understand how people keep his sheild up for more than 2 seconds

You have to be patient. Wait until the enemy team is at least 2 players down before trying to attack. Use the terrain to avoid taking shield damage as much as you can. his shield has 2k HP. It seems like a lot but 6 players can wreck that in an instant if you’re the only thing to shoot at. Additionally, don’t waste the shield. It’s about 3 times the size of rhein and can be shot through walls. Sitting with it up guarantees that everyone knows where you are.

Hammond. My lack of depth perception doesn’t help, but this hasn’t been a problem with any other character for me. I’ll think they’re right below me to piledrive them, and I miss because they aren’t.

Unless you’re playing on a VR headset, depth perception is irrelevant. The screen is flat. Depth is an illusion.

Yes, but I don’t know why I always misjudge my position in the air with Hammond, but don’t have the same issue with Pharah, for example.

Tracer, Genji, and DoomGuy. I understand playing against them. But I haven’t put in the effort to learn how to play them.

passive healing pre engagement for extra boost, nades when people are dying, IF for big burst damage ults and ult for when you need to force the enemies to pull back. Whats so confusing.

Ahh. I think the FOV for WB changes as he moves at different speeds. I am only good at him when i drink WAY too much coffee.

Symmetra.
I just don’t know what her role/niche is.

(I like playing her though.)

Genji. People think he’s cool. But like, why? How? In what world?

I usually play very frontline or mid range heroes whos job is to actively engage the enemy or prevent them from engaging us. Junkrat and torb, playing them is like… It makes absolutely zero sense.

Genji and Widowmaker, I can play anything with a master level at least except those two, my brain is too slow to play Genji and I never get headshots on Widow :man_shrugging:

Reaper? He’s so trash tier I never know when to actually swap to him, kinda like OG torb.

Rein. I just can’t understand how anyone can play him without passing into a deep slumber. He’s absurdly boring.

Reinhardt - Having to commit to a fight without either mobility (Winston) or being able to do some work at a distance while gradually taking ground (Orisa) is a deep arcane knowledge I have not yet mastered. And in general, all of my instincts lend themselves to peeling, so I am much stronger at off-tanks anyway.

Doomfist - Unless I am straight up being fed to, I don’t know how to get value out of him. Getting into an enemy formation, accomplishing anything, and getting out in one piece = ??

Hammond - I’m slowly getting there with him, but I’m still not very sure where I’m supposed to be on the field and how my abilities can effectively tank for my team (as opposed to just being a big rolly Tracer).

Brig.
Am I supposed to hang back like a healer? No, I never get inspire active.
Am I supposed to stay up in front like a tank? No, my shield and I get ripped apart.
I just can’t figure out where to be and what to do with this weird hybrid creature.
