5 Things you should NEVER do on Zenyatta

One thing about Zenyatta is every time you respawn as him, he gives advice/encouragement and I love that about him.

Zen is a litmus test for playing any other character in the game. The barebones kit forces you to work your mechanics, positioning, awareness, and ult tracking more diligently than any other hero. If you can climb on zen, you can apply everything you learned to other heroes.

Thanks awkward. I was actually hoping for a some more zenyatta educational content recently

another thing that i've noticed allows Zen to be really sneaky is that he is the only hero who does not have footsteps, meaning it is impossible to hear him coming unless he is talking. very useful.

"the hard matchups is where most of the learning progress is" this is a very good lesson that applies to everything. Thanks for the help awkward.

got from diamond to gm2 in one season following your advice. Thanks isn’t enough - you are the Iris Zen is talking about

when i was climbing from diamond to masters, zen was my go-to. i always struggled with the last tip bc my teammates would always flame me for using it selfishly LOL

Just recently picked up zen, been finding him extremely fun to play. And I love beating my dps and tank in kills at the end of the game. The tip on the ult usage is gonna help me a lot, but I would like to hopefully see a vid on the future displaying the best positioning spots for zen on each map, and where he should position himself within a team.

Another thing I want to say about number 4 is the left clicks make zen move his head hitbox very quickly. When he charges right click, he’s very very easy to hit headshots on.

I find myself using right clicks more against someone that I discorded but they took cover to lose the discord and are coming back. That 240 burst does A LOT more damage in a short period of time. Left clicks do more damage over a longer period of time. Right clicks are also amazing against snipers like widow, Hanzo, and Ashe because of their movement speed penalty, and you only have to peek for a split second. Trying to kill snipers with left clicks will get you killed most of the time.

Since I started watching Awkward videos, specially the U2GM's, I feel like I'm playing better than never. I always remeber what he says in the videos, and keep repeating all the stuff in my head while I'm playing. Thank you sooo much Awkward, hope you continue making your excellent content for a while.

I find the crazy loud charge sound on the right click to be one of the biggest disadvantages of that ability. Everyone always turns to look at you when they hear it charging up from across the map.

Awesome video !! The struggle of a main Zen player.. the dps that has less damage than you saying that you need to do more healing ! To stop doing dps and focus on healing lol !!! I pass from bronze to plat with zen over 2 seasons, learning from you and Paz, and still learning each day

bro is running that donut media music

this newer production quality is so underrated this guy giving pro tips with pro videos what a god

Man you are the reason I enjoy this game. Before I was stuck in gold, not understanding any fundamentals of the game, then I found u and Im now in masters on Zen. Appriciate everything you do for us ❤❤

I've been climbing a lot on Zen lately but the one thing I am struggling with is dealing with sombra especially when she starts spawn camping you. Its hard to play around cover 100% of the time when trying to walk back to your team from spawn and she waits until you just get out of cover range before nuking you. Even worst when the enemy team dives with 2 or 3 people at once and you get no peal. Still if they dont heavy focus you then Zen can bring insane amounts of value and really start carrying games with his damage.

thank for the vidéo dude , i'm a zen main and lately i been playing a lot of ana and since i watched your stream i can feel my gameplay improved , i do throw sometime but at least i don't blame my team cause i'm still learning how to get better and this zen tips will def help me even more . keep the good work !

Thx, man ! Pretty insightful as always! Hope you keep em coming
