Favorite Hero?

[Smokey]

Who's your favorite hero to use in Overwatch? For me, I love using Bastian and Roadhog the most. I'm OK with Soldier 76 but given the choices I go with either Bastian or Roadhog almost every time. Bastian's sentry gun thing is great for hopping onto the payload and mowing down enemy players while the payload is headed to it's destination, helps to have a healer on your team to keep you healed though. I like Roadhog to pull enemies in with my hook and blast them in the head for a 1-shot kill when defending an objective. Who do you prefer to use when playing Overwatch and why?

Never played Overwatch before, but I can easily say that Zenyatta is my favorite. I just like the overall design of the hero.

Agreed! Zenyatta isn't my favorite but the design of the hero itself is absolutely amazing - it has seriously good skins.

Anyway, my favorite hero depends on the role that I am playing? Am I a tank? A support? The DPS? My favorite tank is probably D.VA or Winston. They are both so much fun and super good to make the enemy team mad. My preferred support is most often Lucio because he is very versatile and not too squishy. He can do neat tricks knocking the enemies off the map and last but not least, the DPS. I love playing Soldier 76 - it is the most rounded DPS hero and even has self-healing. He fits in any comp.

Character-wise my favorite hero is Mercy, I love her character design, her backstory and her role in the Overwatch lore.

Game-wise? Fucking love D.Va and I'll never miss a chance to main her, which is strange because before Overwatch I used to be more of a complete support main instead of a tank one. How things change.

My favorite one is McCree not just because he's a speedy gunslinger but also because of the person who makes his voice which is Matt Mercer and I just love his work. Talking game-wise I think McCree's ult is just sick when you got the drop on your enemies (It's High Noon!)

 

[Cendrillon]

D.Va all the way. I am and have always been a tank player who always suffers since most of the get up isn't all that cute (it just never is.), so Overwatch brings forward the best of both worlds ◝(●˙꒳˙●)◜
And the Cruiser skin is my favourite so far!

I enjoy playing Mercy. The support role is something I don't get into very often in other games I play, so it's a nice change of pace to be doing something so supportive of the team in Overwatch. It makes me feel good working to keep my teammates alive, I suppose. If I'm heading in the offensive direction, I love playing Tracer because her playstyle is really unique. Zip zip zip!

 

[SpitfireMase]

Winston easily. He's a dynamic character that ruins teams that are unprepared for a fast-paced fight, and he has so much personality in his voice lines and emotes. Most Overwatch characters have similarly vibrant personalities, but Winston stands out the most to me.

He and Zenyatta are my favorite characters to play as, and they work pretty well together.

My favorite Hero is Tracer, she's so fun, I also like Widowmaker, I love the evil characters

 

[nickdamon]

My favorite characters to play are McCree, Junkrat and lately I've been getting good with Genji. Mercy's really fun too, she's my 2nd most played. I love that "zone" I get in when I'm playing support. I've also been finding it really satisfying to play Ana.

 

[SashaS]

Probably between Genji and Mercy. Genji has this awesome ninja aesthetic and his weapons are really fun to use once you get it right. Being Mercy also changes the game up a little and forces you to be a team player, which is great. Widow would probably take second or third place for me because in every game I love a good sniper. Its probably my favorite class anyway.

 

[Shortie861]

I am a big fan of Overwatch and tend to use a select few heroes quite often those being D'Va, Lucio, Soldier 76 and Junkrat. When I think about my favourite hero though I think I would have to go with Lucio with him being a healer, not only that he is a pretty cool hero too and I love how he loves his music and he's really upbeat and a fun hero to play with.

 

[BeardedMamba]

My favorite is Roadhog. Nothing matches the thrill I get when I land a max distance hook on a hero, and he's self sufficient.

Hi, Smokey my favorite hero in Overwatch is Soldier 76, because he has very high mobility in battle, demolish personal support healing, missiles which can demolish multiple players if placed properly. With a healer by his side, Soldier 76 in my opinion, will succeed over all others!
