Counters Chart for Every Overwatch 2 Hero

Your handy dandy guide on how to kill someone real fast

Overwatch 2 is an incredibly dynamic, team based first-person shooter, which gives players the option to choose between twenty-seven different heroes. And while you’ll likely be sequestered into one of three different categories (tank, damage, or support), you can change your hero to any other within that category, so long as you’re in spawn.

This unique mechanic ensures that teams are constantly in flux, with players choosing whoever is best to win an engagement. At least, ideally. Some people will very stubbornly shoot at Pharahs as Junkrat, determined to clip her wings by sheer random chance. But determining who’s the best hero to counter someone on the opposite team isn’t always easy.

While we have a great guide that explains the best counters in the related link below, here’s a quick reference chart that can help you swap as quickly as possible.
