Pr0 gam3r D.Va is the most-played Overwatch character at nearly all ranges of play, in accordance with knowledge launched yesterday by sport director Jeff Kaplan. To help arguments about which characters are or aren’t balanced or in style at totally different ability ranges, he dumped an enormous checklist of the most-played throughout all matchmaking tiers. Atop all however one bracket sits the Dorito-munching gremlin, with Mercy, Genji, and Roadhog well-represented in any respect ranges of play too. My faker’s information to being an Overwatch pr0 would say: play Winston, who’s solely actually widespread on the highest ranges.
Head to the Overwatch forums to see the ten most-played characters within the Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Master, and Grandmaster tiers as of March 1st, the beginning of Overwatch’s newest season.
Kaplan dumped the info in a dialogue about “trickle-down meta”, a thread began by somebody seeking to assuage fears that Sombra’s buffs in the new season patch will see her swamping all ranges of play. Though Kaplan’s knowledge misses the consequences of these Sombra buffs, it does present clear variations between low-end and high-end play.
A variety of the heroes hottest on the highest ability ranges don’t even present up in decrease lists: Tracer, Winston, McCree, and Zenyatta. Conversely, Junkrat, Reinhardt, Ana, and Soldier: 76 all drop off in the direction of the upper finish.
Kaplan solely lists the highest ten at every stage, to be clear, and Overwatch has 26 characters (with the 27th, Brigitte, nonetheless in public testing) so this isn’t the total image. Someone not showing on an inventory doesn’t imply they’re dangerous or not performed in any respect. But I’m telling you, run a hand by means of your hair, smirk, and say “Oh, I main Winston” then lean again and bathe within the adoration from individuals who can by no means ever know you’re in Bronze tier.
