    Winston is there to kill squishes. You should be killing her if you start the fight at full health in a 1v1.

    She shoots you and dashes off.
    You jump after her and get a bit of an attack in.
    She just dashes again or recalls....your jump is still on cooldown and your left hopping after her until it comes up again...by which time she probably has 3 dashes and a recall up again herself.

    Only stupid Tracers will die to Winston by standing in his range.

    Winston is good for taking out squishys with LOW mobility.I don't know where the idea of a 'Tracer killing machine' came from. He's great for Genji though...as Genji's dash also has a long cooldown.

    1 Blink and she's out of your effective range, so you either leave your Bubble and get shot, or try to kill her - which takes 2.5 seconds of continuous fire (60dps), during which time she'll probably Recall.
    Winston can only fire his gun for 5 seconds, so next engagement you WILL have to reload... and then her DPS has killed you.

    Tracer and Winston are an unusual duo since they're both a nuisance to each other but Tracer does have the edge.

    I've heard "Sorry big guy!" on both ends to know that.

    I'm up to 2136 after 9 games on my second account after placing at 1739. I've played Mercy in all those games bar one and I've won 8, drew 1 and lost 1 all solo.

    Mercy with heals over 8k seem to give better rank. I think I will give solo a bash this week at some point in comp just to see :D

    Bronze
    Silver
    Gold
    Platinum
    Diamond
    Master
    Grandmaster
    Top 500

    Has anyone here actually reached GM or Top 500? The games at that level must be crazy.

    This was the team...that set out about DEFENDING !!!....I knew it was gonna be a nightmare from the start.
    I don't even play healers...but had to for the sake of it....
    Fckin game ! You'd expect it in QuickPlay...but....

    Oh...and the message in chat...
    It's MCREE : There is no proper dealer on our team....so I'll go McCree
