Use your ultimate when there's people bunched up and can't run and hide behind corners easily. (eg clearing an objective point) Use the stunning bomb on the mobile heroes if they get too close. (bonus, note the location of the sun in the sky then disregard and declare the time to be high noon no matter what) | ||

if there's a d.va on the opposing team though she can shut your ult down with a well timed projectile intercept thing. | ||

but if anyone has a spare PC key (I live in Aus but my roommates are playing on NA servers), I'd greatly appreciate it. I'd also be willing to trade some dota 2 hats for a key (probably be willing to part ways with some ember spirit immortal rapiers). Thanks. | ||

With McCree the recoil of right click is difficult to control, with the pistol's crosshair being pushed up, so pulling your mouse down as you fire is the way to compensate for it. | ||

If you high noon, be wary about Genji as he can parry it. Diva who can just face rush you and block your vision. Or Stuns and Sniper. And you can get Reinhards shield low, if to many hide behind it, the shield will take to much damage break and kill people behind it regardless. As for Genji, poke from range and only dash in if you get a kill so you can dash out again, try to get a feeling for the range of Dash. As with every mobility hero, map knowledge is important, though Genjiy doesn't need to know the maps blindly, like for example Tracer, where blinks to the right and left of your vision are rather important. I can't explain Parry really ... its the thing that allows you to move into sniper line of sight. It does so much stuff vs different heroes. You can even reflect some ults. But if its down, don't show yourself in the open. You can also reset your double jump after a wall run, allowing you to do some funky triple jumps. Soldier 76 can also do some trick jumps with the helix rocket. Just allows to make some jumps more save or take a few shortcuts. As for the new Roadhoggs out there. You max damage combo is. Right click -> Hook -> Leftclick -> Melee. That can kill Tanks even. Also your right click can one shot 200 hp heroes on range if you learn the distance of your right click and can explode the balls right before enemies you will be unstoppable. | ||

Every CS player is just yawning about this. XD I'm actually quite suprised that my Hanzo is pretty good already. I thought I'd have a lot harder time to get along with him. | ||

For some reason I've been having trouble timing the shot after hook and I miss either the shot or the melee. I've gotten it a couple times though, and damn do you feel powerful doing it. | ||

Sometimes they land off to the right or left, hell I even hooked a Dva pilot that ended up behind me somehow. Not to mention hooking people around corners and having them not come at all because they hit the intervening wall. His hook is a bit buggy atm. | ||
