Overwatch: 10 Hardest Heroes To Play As, Ranked | Game Rant

Overwatch has a lot of characters, known as heroes, to play as, though some are much easier to master than others. In the Hero Gallery, players can see all of the heroes in the game as well as the items they’ve earned through loot boxes, such as skins, emotes, victory poses, highlight intros, and more.

They can also find out how difficult a hero is to play, according to the game at least. While every player will be more skilled at some heroes more than others, and may even be great at playing the more challenging heroes, these are ten of the hardest to use based on the Hero Gallery.

10 Wrecking Ball

Wrecking Ball is one of the newest heroes to be added into the game, arriving back in July 2018. New heroes are rarely added in, with only four coming out after Wrecking Ball. This hero is a tank that can move around from one side of a map all the way to another in a matter of seconds. As players move Wrecking Ball around quickly, they can smack other heroes around and make a quick getaway before they strike back. However, using Wrecking Ball’s Roll and Grappling Claw can be a bit difficult as players need to be accurate with where they grapple to and avoid obstacles in their way to roll around as fast as possible. Wrecking Ball also doesn’t have a shield to protect teammates with like other tanks do, nor has a gun that reloads quickly.

9 Hanzo

Hanzo is a damage hero that uses his bow and arrow to attack enemies. If players are far away from their opponents, it can be quite challenging to land a hit on them. Hanzo’s ultimate ability, Dragonstrike, can also be difficult to use as players need to predict where their opponents are going to move in order to use it most effectively. Because of this, it is best for Hanzo players to either sneak around the other team and attack them from behind or work with a teammate that can control where their enemies move, such as Zarya or Orisa, when using their ultimate.

8 Zenyatta

Zenyatta is a support hero that, when used properly, can help defeat the enemy team in a short amount of time. With the Orb of Discord that Zenyatta has, players can make an opponent take more damage, killing them quickly. However, if opponents hide behind something, the Orb of Discord can’t touch them, making it difficult to use in certain situations.

As for healing, Zenyatta players can only heal one teammate at a time unless if they use their ultimate ability, Transcendence. Because of this, it’s best to use Zenyatta if the team already has a hero that can heal teammates quickly.

7 Sigma

Sigma is the newest hero to be added in the game that is on this list and is the only tank to release since Wrecking Ball. Like some of the other tanks, he has a shield to protect teammates. However, Sigma players can control how far or close the shield is from where they send it out. It can be a little tricky to use at first and those that haven’t played Sigma much will probably need some practice before they master the Experimental Barrier. As for attacking, he can use his Hyperspheres, which attack enemies at the area they are shot at, and Accretion, which players can use to smack a boulder into their opponents. The most important thing about using these abilities is to predict where an enemy will move in order to get the best use of them. Lastly, his ultimate, Gravitic Flux, should only be used when opponents are near each other as they’ll all be lifted into the air and dropped down, hurting them.

6 Sombra

Sombra is a damage hero that can turn invisible and run faster than most of the other heroes in the game. She can also hack opponents, causing them to not be able to use the majority of their powers. Unfortunately, it can be hard to hack opponents, especially if they find Sombra quickly. She can either hack them one at a time or as a group with her ultimate ability, EMP. Like Hanzo, it is best to only use EMP if the enemy team is close together and players may need to rely on their team to make that happen. Enemies aren’t the only things that Sombra can hack. She can also hack health packs and use her Translocator to teleport to them, or anywhere else on the map. However, if an opponent attacks the Translocator, Sombra won’t be able to return to it, so players have to think carefully of where to put it.

5 Genji

Genji is Hanzo’s brother and another difficult damage hero to play as. Due to how slow his shuriken are, players have trouble attacking their opponents. They either need to predict the enemy team’s movements and time when to strike or throw three shuriken in different directions, hoping that one of them will land a hit, at least until they get very skilled at playing with this hero.

Dragonblade, Genji’s ultimate, is also hard to use and requires a lot of practice to get good at. The rest of his abilities are actually much easier to control, which is the only thing stopping him from being the most difficult damage hero to use in the game.

4 Ana

Ana is both a support hero and the most difficult sniper to play as in the game. It’s already really hard to play as a sniper in a video game and players need to work a lot in order to be great at it, but things get even more challenging when players have to shoot both their enemies, as well as their teammates. It can also be frustrating to play as Ana since she relies so heavily on her comrades. When she uses her Sleep Dart ability to stop an enemy from moving, they can easily get out of it if attacked by Ana’s team. Her ultimate, Nano Boost, makes a teammate more powerful, but it’s up to them to decide how much it impacts the game. No matter how great an Ana player is, other players can make things really difficult, which is the hardest thing for those that control this support sniper.

3 Doomfist

The hardest damage hero to play in Overwatch is Doomfist. Because he is so different to control compared to the rest of the heroes in the game, players have to either play as him more than any of the others or have to work harder to get used to his abilities. He is a hero that mostly attacks in a close distance as his main weapon is the gauntlet he wears. With Rocket Punch, players can move him quickly as he attacks wherever they aim. He can also jump far and high in the air with his Seismic Slam and Rising Uppercut abilities, which also hit opponents with his gauntlet. He does have a long-ranged weapon, Hand Cannon, but it’s one of the worst in the game.

2 Baptiste

Baptiste is the newest support to be added to Overwatch and the hardest. He has two types of bullets. One of them hurts enemies like any other gun, and another that he uses to heal teammates. Baptiste can also heal comrades with his Regenerative Burst, which heals those near him, and Immortality Field, which, if players go inside of it, can make the team invincible. However, the enemy team can easily destroy the Immortality Field so Baptiste players have to think carefully on where to put it. They also have to be careful where they place Amplification Matrix, his ultimate, which will make bullets that go through it stronger. Due to these decisions and having to do so much at once, Baptiste is a really difficult hero to use.

1 Zarya

Zarya is the hardest hero to play as. She is a tank that is incredibly different from the rest so players are often confused as to how to use her. Rather than having a typical shield, she has barriers. One of them, Particle Barrier, protects her, while the other, Projected Barrier, protects a teammate. It is best to use the barriers when diving into a fight and knowing that the enemy team will attack. Zarya players want their teammates to be attacked while they have a barrier around them because it makes her stronger. In order to play Zarya effectively, players will have to work with their teammates, which is one of the hardest things to do in Overwatch.
