-Incredibly dependent on team to succeed
-Only ranged damage is a slow projectile on cooldown
-Only movement ability is more dangerous to use than not most of the time
-Vulnerable to enemy ranged damage
-High ground control is rough
Winston is so much better in so many situations. Not trying to rank shame but people who think Rein is the only answer are generally low rank and don’t know how to make quick/fast engagements with dive. You don’t NEED a frontal barrier to win.
Because he’s not.
Also not in every meta too Since when Rein was in DIVE lmao
He has the largest hitbox in the game and easiest to kill when out of position.
So, Winston doesn’t exist or something? Even Orisa was the MT choice during the end of double sniper meta.
Rarely gets anything with it and completely displaces himself, while also leaving his team completely in the open.
It’s certainly a strong Ultimate, but there’s obviously counterplay to it.
That’s literally his gimmick.
At the cost of only being melee range. He’s a tank; it’s his job to create and maintain space. Part of that is by discouraging the enemy squishies from getting too close to him.
If you get hit by it and you’re not playing Rein or Orisa, you deserve to take 100 damage.
