Which Support To Pick In Overwatch 2 & Why!

Good grief is it nice to see an Overwatch content creator actually giving positive advice for every hero, not dogging on characters they might not like, and remembering that Overwatch brought in a lot of non-FPS people by making characters that aren't sweaty but still effective.

Coming from an R6 background, I've found Baptiste to be the most fun hero for me. I can lay down some damage while also being a healer

Loving Kiriko as someone who plays a lot of Genji, Lucio, and Zen already, but those headshots are always a test of even well-practiced aim

You explained Moira really well imho. I've noticed that at least in lower skill games my own DPS players are often problematic because they don't pick the right characters or are simply incapable of killing enemy players. So then I have to count on myself as Moira to go get the enemy team backline out of the way. At least then my team can usually 4v3 if I get 2 of their supports out of the game or at least disrupt their team enough to make a difference. Seems that other comments view her the same way. I feel like she will probably be the best support to carry yourself with if your team is underperforming.

For climbing out of the lower ranks I feel like Moira is the best option right now. With Genji being so mobile with a high pick rate she is great to counter him since your grasp is not affected by reflect. At the higher ranks maybe not the best but if you need to get out of your soft MMR reset with people who say in chat "I'm whittling away the Rein shield with bastion, that's my job" this will help you get out of that pit.

As a zen main I am very happy with how you described him. I get a lot of backlash due to not having high heals but people have to understand zen is a support not a medic. And I think it’s funny when I have more damage then the dps and tank on my team.

I loved seeing the Lucio speed boost effect demonstrated. So hard to tell that kind of impact in my low elo gamers

For me, it’s a map by map basis. Long open areas call for Ana. Areas with lists of tunnels and twists call for a Moira’s maneuverability. Anything with high vantage points screams Baptiste for better top down aim with healing grenades.

0:30 Ana 2:13 Baptiste 3:22 Brigitte 4:18 Kiriko 5:37 Lucio 6:35 Mercy 7:34 Moira 8:40 Zenyatta

Im trying to find good bite sized videos for my new friends that can explain the characters on each role well and this vid is perfect. I hope you make one for the other roles

Man I love Lucio, one of the more underrated and yet super strong in the right hand. Wall riding can save your life and even save the game by constant circling the objective until teammate come.

Watched this vid with like 4+ years experience of ow, still enjoyed it a ton. I already know that I'm more of a flex support player due to their bloodthursty nature, especially loving bap for carrying me to plat but also starting to play a lot more ana after that point, but recently started falling in love with lucio - his crazy mobility and his dual nature of enabling the team or just slaying the enemy yourself is something I just love. Brig's patient and defensive playstyle also is decently enjoyable for me and I've always enjoyed just sometimes whipping out the mercy and pocketing a friend on dps xD Guess I'm an all around flex player so I never really found my "one true support" hero or even role, and honestly I don't feel the need to, but this video definitely summarizes the different heroes in their playstyle, uniqueness and required skillsets.

This is THE best, well-structured, well-explained video on Overwatch 2 Supports so far. First time I come across your channel as a new OW2 player. Liked & subbed. Keep it up man!

Love this type of educational content!!! Even as a longtime overwatch player you can always hone your knowledge a little more

I love Mercy's new movement. It's so much more consistent (for me). I am so much more survivable.

Love the in game action as you explain each hero. Highly detailed and very informative. Good video 👍🏻

This is a great summary and break from other content out right now. Looking forward to the next one and loving the format!

Thank you for the breakdown SVB. I have a bit of knowledge since I played all 3 beta's and I watch a ton of OWL but knowing and doing are two separate things. It's great to hear from a higher player what the characters are capable of and when they are best applied. I hope to see more of these for the other roles.

I really enjoyed this video, SVB! I'm very excited for the Damage hero video, and how certain heroes have different roles in OW2 (compared to OW1). Keep up the great work!

Very nice, to the point and informative. Keep up the good work.
