Tips and strategies to help you master every 'Overwatch' hero
So you want to get good at Overwatch.
There are now 22 Overwatch heroes (and counting), and each one plays very differently. Blizzard's highly competitive shooter is balanced very carefully around ensuring that every hero adds strategic depth to the game without making any of them too powerful.
The result is a multiplayer-focused shooter in which no two matches ever feel quite the same. It can be frustrating until you get the hang of things, but master just one hero and that changes quickly.
