One habit to change: Keep one of your two dashes for escape; the other is for damage.

Good into

  • PharahGet close: you both fire projectiles, and up close you land more.
  • RoadhogStay out of hook range and spam him; he's a big, slow target.
  • AnranPut one bolt and some crossbow shots on her to force Dancing Blaze, then use everything.

Struggles against

  • D.VaBoosters reach you in the air; Matrix eats your bolts.
  • AsheA body shot plus a headshot kills you.
  • BaptisteRegen Burst tanks your first bolt and he jumps out.
