If you\u2019re one of the players in Overwatch<\/em> sitting at your screen wondering who you should play, this list may help you out. <\/p>
One of the most interesting parts of Overwatch<\/em> is how quickly heroes can become useful in a meta, or the most optimal team composition, at any given time. While the pure enjoyment of playing a hero should still be the top motivator, sometimes it helps to know what\u2019s working for the top players.\u00a0<\/p>
These hero ranking tiers reflect play time and general success with heroes in professional, organized, competitive Overwatch<\/em>, such as the Overwatch<\/em> League and Contenders. This list may not necessarily reflect a player\u2019s experience on the competitive ladder, especially at lower levels, but it’s a good place to start when considering which heroes to learn or perfect.<\/p>
Unlike most of 2019, which revolved almost entirely around the GOATS composition<\/a>, 2020 has seen a series of quickly-changing strategies thanks to Hero Pools in the Overwatch<\/em> League and faster balance changes from the developers. Instead of one stable meta, players tend to gravitate toward strong heroes while creating a series of variable team compositions.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>
