What mechanics do you never use?

Im sure everyone has a hero they like to play, with an ability or mechanic that they really dont like using/forget about using.

For me its lucios wallride. Sure, sometimes i use it to get back from spawn faster… but i just cant bring myself to use it midfight or during engagements much. its just… disorienting to me.

What are yours?

Does Bastion count?

Melee.
I just don’t use it that often on any hero.

Whenever I play Symmetra I never use her teleporter. I just find no use for it. Plus, I just forget it’s even an option.

Syms primary yet this was a while ago when it was actually just a terrible option in general.

I haven’t played the game recently enough to use it with its recent buffs but it’s still a very niche option

The secondary is just usually better in general it has faster time to kill and can be charged in cover

-Diagonal punch

It’s too good but i still forget to use it in many of my games…

Baptiste’s super jump… now that I think about it, just crouching in general.

But man does it feel good to win a Widow sniper duel where the opponent is crouch spamming like crazy and you don’t.

I really don’t use scoped in mode for Ana, I use hipfire 90% of the time and I’m really good at it

I like the hero, shooting rockets.
But i am afraid of heights.

Reaper’s E is strange.

Flying as Pharah. I’m basically playimg her as a rocket launcher Junkrat cause without a Mercy constantly pocketing my behind, I’m just an easy target in the air who can’t land 90% of shots fired

Baptiste’s Primary Fire because I’m always focused on healing.

Yellow only, no purple bullets.

Bouncing Moira orbs off most walls. It’s far too unreliable. I’m fine with bouncing orbs through tight corridors but any kind of complex mesh just makes them go into the sky.

Voice Chat. Not interested in hearing the pointless vitriol anymore. People tell me constantly about how useful it is but at the end of the day I’d rather be a few hundred SR below my maximum potential than have to put up with all that mess.

lmao thats all too relatable.
ive even considered turning text chat off if that is even possible.

It is! I don’t recall exactly where the option is found but I used to turn it off quite often.

I have to agree, and I always regret not muting Match Chat when some punk has go “EZ” at the end of a match or some other stupidity.

Honestly, crouching. Literally never crouch.
