I’m not a good player (Plat), nor will I pretend to be. I’m struggling as DPS vs. Hanzo Matchups.
I don’t get Hanzo’s weaknesses, it feels like he doesn’t have them. He’s a long range Sniper with High Mobility that consistently outduels Reaper in Melee Range in all tiers of play (except Bronze maybe?)…
I mostly play Reaper/Sombra. If he’s pocketed and at all competent, he feels utterly invincible. It’s like I have to solely rely on the Tank to kill him. But if I try to focus other targets, the Hanzo destroys my team, and I get flamed for not solo-killing him.
So, what do I do? Am I forced to play Genji vs. him?
Tracer is a good pick against him, and so is Genji. You could outsnipe him with Widow too.
Hanzo directly counters Sombra and Reaper is at a disadvantage in a 1v1. Try to always be moving in an unpredictable manner so he can’t one shot you.
Do anything but letting him jerk off the corners and spam. Sit on him with anything you can get to him. Get to off angles and find him exposed and nowhere to run. If hanzo owns you - you give him space, if he still owns you he is better at the game.
You could throw some symm turrets In his room, I usually just use Ashe or Tracer though

He’s OP. Nobody with a brain expects dual shotguns/250 HP to lose to a bow and arrow/200 HP at close quarters. Yet here we are.
Welcome to one of many reasons why you shouldn’t waste your time with this game.
