Unfortunately, tanks such as D.Va and Reinhardt can’t be so easily picked off with even the most well-placed shot. On maps with a lot of high ground options, a Widowmaker can easily pick off squishy heroes like Zenyatta. While we won’t be seeing any Widowmaker headshot compilations this season, many Widowmaker mains still have the chance to show off their precision in very niche situations on certain maps. Still, during her four hours of play time in Season 2, Pharah remains at a 33.76% win rate, which is quite low when compared to a hero like Winston, who was played for over 21 hours and has a little over 51% win rate. Similar to Lucio, Pharah has great environmental kill potential, as well as the chance to seperate players from the rest of their team with her ability’s knockback. Pharah’s disruption continues when you factor in her Concussive Blast. The D.Va can attempt to take out Pharah, but she must leave the safety of her team to do so. Since Reinhardt’s shield can only face in one direction, he now has to pick between shiedling above or in front of him, where the rest of the opposing team would be pushing. The second-most picked DPS in Stage 2, Pharah’s unique abilities allow her to soar above the enemy team to cause a huge distraction for Reinhardt and D.Va.
OVERWATCH TIER LIST PRO
On more open maps, pro players can easily find ways to maneuver around her walls, thus avoiding being seperated from the rest of their team. While her wall proved to have quite the impact on GOATS, it’s still very situational. In fact, she had a pick rate of under one percent near the end of Stage 2.
The Paris Eternal took the map, but Mei still hasn’t seen a lot of play since. The two doorways that allow access to the point are the exact same size as Mei’s wall, allowing her to really make an impact on the enemy’s coordinated point entries. In Week 2 of Stage 1, the Los Angeles Valiant faced the Paris Eternal, who surprised viewers and their opponents alike when they picked Mei instead of D.Va on Nepal Village. The goal is to isolate enemies, allowing your teammates to more easily pick them off. Since GOATS relies so heavily on sticking together and consistently getting easy heals, a perfectly placed Mei wall can disrupt an entire game. Rank: B-Tier MeiĪlthough rarely seen in the Overwatch League, there is a name for the Mei variant of GOATS meta: SNOATS. Still, not many pros outside of Ameng have made a huge impact on the hamster, and he remains at a 7.2% pick rate. When in the right hands, Wrecking Ball is a very disruptive tank that uses high mobility to stay one step ahead of the typical GOATS formation. The Hunters ultimately lost, which most viewers attributed to the team’s purposeful picks outside of GOATS, but the team has been gaining fans for their entertaining and intelligent meta-breaking strategies. The Chengdu Hunters player is best known for dominating the Vancouver Titans’ star Reinhardt player, Park “Bumper” Sang-beom, while playing Wrecking Ball. With stats like this, it’s no wonder Ding “Ameng” Menghan has transcended gigachad status to become the definition for yottachad. This is still nothing compared to Lucio’s recent 95.6%, but Sombra continues to make an impact on GOATS when implemented correctly. The last week of Stage 2, she saw a 16.2% pick rate, compared with the next most picked DPS, Pharah, at just over 6%. Hopefully Blizzard can balance things out before the meta becomes too unbalanced, and players report you for picking 'nonviable' characters.Sombra is currently the highest-picked DPS hero in the Overwatch League. At the recent Alienware Monthly Melee, Zenyatta was picked 0 times. Let me make clear just how 'bottom' the bottom is. I mentioned earlier that our robot monk was at the bottom of the tier list. With the lack of McCree's insane killing power, Roadhog and Pharah have managed to climb up too. Soldier 76 is the third most used character overall, and top of the offensive charts when being played on the defense - to a point where it is almost mandatory to have him on your team.
OVERWATCH TIER LIST UPDATE
Meanwhile, as the update name suggests, three heroes have suddenly propelled in their usage. Only Mei, Bastion, and Zenyatta are behind him. Unfortunately for McCree, he's now the least used offensive hero in the competitive community. Fortunately for Widowmaker, she's now moved to being a situational character and maintains a usage percentage above her sniper rival Hanzo. In the16th update titled "I've got the whole hog from above", it looks like the McCree and Widowmaker nerfs have hit hard.
