3/28/2024 0 Comments Overwatch solo queue meaning![]() ![]() When I’m playing in groups with my friends, I’ll remind them every so often to not overextend on defense - that is, don’t range so far away from your team, or your objective, that you can be picked off or caught unawares. You can see who’s is available and plan your moves accordingly. Tip: Pressing tab also displays the ultimate status of your team based on the asterisk underneath their name. If everyone on your team is looking one way, scan a side hallway or keep your crosshairs trained upward. ![]() Between heroes like Tracer and Reaper, it’s often easy for opposing teams to come in from different directions. I’m a victim of doing this and should take my own advice, but constantly look around. It’ll be quicker (and safer) than constantly pressing tab to see the full status screen even though I still do that anyway. Did your team’s Reaper manage to knock out both opposing supports? Time to capitalize and make a move to apply some pressure. Did three of your teammates just get neutralized? Best to hang back and wait for the next push. Speaking of awareness, having the kill feed turned on in the top right corner can help provide you with valuable information in terms of who’s alive and who’s not.

Spend some time listening to ultimate callouts and learn to identify those which belong to an ally and which belong to an enemy. After some time has passed or if certain objectives are completed, a hero change might be warranted for the next stage of the match (for example, after capturing the first point on Numbani, it converts to the escort objective).Įnemy ultimate notifications are generally louder than those of your own team - and the actual callout tends to be different, too. Zarya can be a massive wrecking ball if left unchecked (and she’s my favorite, for sure). ![]() To start, I usually open most matches as a neutral pick like Zarya or Soldier 76. We’ll be focusing on what you, as an individual in solo queue, can do to maximize the odds of your team winning. This week, we’re going to check out competitive mode and the ways which you can maximize both you and your team’s chance of success. Scott wrote a great piece the other week regarding teamwork in Overwatch, but what happens if you’re playing alone or don’t have any friends online? It can be a challenge to coordinate efforts with random players. We’ll touch on a few character choices briefly, but we’ll save the full analysis for another day. This week, we’re not going in-depth with the meta or character choices. ![]()
