Winston Tips
- Winston can be taken out quite easily, so think of him as a harassing character. He can jump into a group of enemies, set a Barrier Projector and then shock his enemies to death with his Tesla Cannon.
- Try to harass healers and they will be easiest targets for Winston to take out
- If there’s a Genji making things difficult for your team then focus on taking him down as he cannot deflect Winston’s cannon
- In Payload matches, jump onto the Payload and place a Barrier Projector. The projector will move with the Payload for a short time, giving your team some cover while moving it ahead
- Wait for crucial moments to use Primal Rage. It’s best used to scatter groups of enemies on the objective, and it’s especially good at points of the map where players can fall to their deaths
