So, we turn to the premium version of Battle Pass, which immediately gives you the new support hero, Kiriko, and offers an EXP boost when leveling up. Whether or not this is a deal you want to take is your choice, but we’ve all definitely considered dropping some of our hard-earned money for t

With that said, as there will always be two, what good combinations exist? You have plenty of options to choose from: the ones that are so different that they can take care of many problems combined or those whose abilities have great syne

It’s a great way to show teammates that you appreciate them, and, let’s be honest, getting an endorsement just feels good. And, with the (tragic) loss of the end-of-match medal system , endorsements are the best way to track if we did well. Win or lose, endorsing (and being endorsed) improves the game’s v

The busy gamer season is almost upon us, but I’m also going on holiday next week and leaving my colleagues to fend for themselves. So, in my last weekend as a gamer on the homestead, I’ll be digging into a cute and fruity game about making potions that I can talk about soon, while starting a second playthrough of Scorn on Xbox Series X to scoop up all the achievements I missed during the review period. Of course, I’ll also fit in some Overwatch 2 for good meas

This is a poison trap that you can fire out to help defend against enemies. With this ability, you can protect objectives, and yourself from enemies that may be trying to sneak around the team or get to you while sniping. When you launch the mine you can see where it is on your screen even when it is behind wa

Despite the near removal of shield-tank status, her reworking more than justifies her defensive backstep. Her base armor has been bumped up, and her new Augmented Fusion Driver can pummel targets with loads of damage. And she can still break out the Fortification when the team is in a pinch, granting Overhealth and preventing critical dam

As for the protection Suzu, no abilities can stop it once it's done. That means countering it isn't about your character or abilities, but about your strategy. The first option here is to get rid of her; a sniper headshot, a handful of charged-up Zenyatta orbs, or anything else that kills her fast, so she dies before using it in the first place. Or, you can use your basic attacks cleverly to force her into using her protection abilities, and then you or your teammates can proceed to use something actually threatening against her. That way, you know her ability will be at a cooldown, and she'll have no way to counter t

Reinhardt's lethality comes from his Ultimate, Earthshatter . When used, it will stun and knock down all enemies in front of him, and Reinhardt can use all of his abilities in his arsenal to set up deadly combos. His Rocket Hammer is deadly in close proximity, so if playing this useful tank, it's best to charge into the fight and limit standing around while constantly keeping the shield raised. However, there will be times when Rein can be quite effective simply shielding and guarding the t

Whatever lobby we may be waiting in before the match begins, one thing is certain: we will shoot, punch, kick, and blast absolutely everything off their resting places. If the developers didn’t want us to, they wouldn’t have put physics in the game, after

The idea here is that, though they're both snipers, both Widowmaker and Hanzo can instantly kill someone (who isn't a tank) in a single hit through a headshot. They can get rid of almost everyone with nothing but good aim, and their abilities can also help them a lot in tight situations. They can even help one another through the see-through-wall abilities they both present. The large cover of Widowmaker's Infra-Sight would pair perfectly with Hanzo's Dragonstrike Ultimate since it can pass through solid surfa

This combo might seem odd at first. Usually, the idea is that these duos offer different things, even if they appear similar. Still, these two flankers have similar methods of bothering and killing enemies, being fragile, and targeting low-health targets, such as the support characters. So, why do they co

Overwatch 2 Strategy 2 is a free-to-play shooter, which has picked up some popularity with its recent release. The characters that you can pick are called Heroes, and each one has its own abilities and weapons for you to utilise. When looking for a play mode you can do Quick Mode with a variety of maps, Competitive Mode to rank up, or Arcade and Practice modes that give you the option to choose the games you want to p

If you’re playing without voice chat or not on PC, your only means of communication are the emotes and voice lines. It’s hard to read someone’s vibe from just their play style, after all, and you want to make sure everyone knows you’re easy-going and just here for a good time. So, you use the "Hello!" and "Thanks!" voice lines. A
