Funko Plushies: Overwatch: Winston

Product Information

However, you'd want to communicate this to your team to push up and focus tanks as they shouldn't be receiving healing for some time Winston is a fantastic counter to mobile enemies like Tracer or Genji. The autohit nature of Tesla Cannon prevents them from dodging the constant stream of damage from Winston, and Barrier Projector gives Winston more than enough Health to deal with them. When up against a good player using Tracer or Genji, consider switching to Winston. Whilst niche, you can jump to slide yourself across slanted Surfaces and roofs to decrease your jump cooldown when landing When running long range, high damage DPS characters such as Pharah, Hanzo or Widowmaker (This'll be in the context of both teams running Winston D.Va mirrors) you want to be playing much slower, posturing around the tanks to gain primal as fast as possible, because their tanks simply can't exist with the high amount of damage you have. The distance you travel during this skip is directly proportional to the horizontal velocity you are travelling (IE If you do a mid jump or low jump forward and simultaneously Press W, you will travel further than just jumping up in the air vertically, then performing the skip)

Winston can use (and charge) Tesla Cannon, melee and Barrier Projector and Primal Rage while leaping. You can increase the distance you travel by simply pressing your jump key after you land, performing a little skipYou can test this out yourself in the training range by the two bots to your left when you spawn. If you stand in the middle of them then shoot at your max range, you will hit both of the bots. However, if you move closer to them (Still staying the middle) you will eventually not be able to hit either of the bots. The young gorilla passed his days assisting with the scientists' experiments, watching the distant blue world outside his habitat window, dreaming of the endless possibilities that awaited him there. [3] He enjoyed life at Horizon, and regarded the human scientists as his family, and Dr. Winston his father, [13] who taught him science and engineering. [14] In time, he also became good friends with the hamster subject designated Specimen 8, or " Hammond". [15] Lexigrams were used as part of his education process, [16] and one day on Lunar New Year, Dr. Winston challenged the young ape to read Journey to the West. The gorilla's imagination was captured by the heroic monk Tang Sanzang and his ragtag group of disciples' quest for redemption. As a result, the ape was reminded of his younger days every Lunar New Year; Dr Winston telling him the story remained one of his most treasured memories. [4] Whilst it may sound difficult to not use cooldowns, you ideally want to run Ana Mercy (Mercy for the Pharah/To Enable DPS) as the Ana gives a clear target for the opponent to dive, whilst providing a high amount of healing in the Poke Phase Against Lucio Mercy or even Brig Mercy in some cases

The glasses Winston wears are the same ones that belonged to Harold Winston. Thematically, they represent the older generation (Harold) handing the world off to the new one. [48] The Tesla Cannon has fairly low damage compared to the weapons of other Tanks. It's best not to go head-to-head with other Tanks unless they're already low on Health. Your jump cooldown is refreshed when you use primal, meaning that you can travel as far as a Reinhardt's pin but in the fraction of the time. Try to land as close the enemy as possible, as this does more damage and allows you to melee them immediately for a bigger burst of damage. When Tracer attempted to fix the grid of the London Underworld, Winston sent her a regulator. [1] Recall “This mainly depends upon your team composition unlike some other characters, as this will be determining whether your target priority, your win condition, and how fast you play. The futher you are away from a certain target, the wider your FOV (Field of view) is. This means that you can make use of your cleave damage much easier the further away you are, whereas if you are up and close to a target, you will often miss any targets to the left and right of you

Bastion will have no trouble gunning you down due to your large hitbox, and your Barrier Projector's low health will do little to stop the bullet rain. Even if you can get behind Bastion, the Tesla Cannon cannot headshot, giving Bastion plenty of time to snap around and run you down. Unless protected by the likes of Zarya's Projected Barrier, you should never engage Bastion when he is in Sentry Configuration. You stand a better chance if you catch Bastion in Recon Configuration, but unless he's at low health, he can simply transform and gun you down. Even when you are using Primal Rage, Bastion can chew through a huge amount of your health. Avoid messing with Bastion as much as possible and let your more suitable teammates kill it.REINHARDT (Read Through u/nikoskio2's and u/RobertFlatt's comments, Apologies if the continuous tagging every week is a bit annoying, lmk if it is!) A basic but vital principle that many Winston's still violate is using their jump to engage on an enemy instead of sneaking, walking or dropping (From Highground) to that target (E.G. Dropping from Highground on Hollywood 2nd Point Defense) When Winston loses his temper, Winston becomes a raging ape. In his off-time, he enjoys peanut butter and bananas. [8] He has stated/joked that his love of the former is due to his genetic therapy. [6] Due to the amount of time he spent on the moon, he has to take supplements to keep his bones in good condition. [9] Horizon Lunar Colony “ Winston was one of the hardest characters to animate due to the numerous armor pieces he wears. His rage mode also presented problems due to the changes in movement animation. [51] His design was "top-down" (where developers start with story/art/flavor elements and develop abilities around those ideas afterwards). [52]

Barrier Projector: When activated, Winston drops a small projector that creates a bubble-shaped barrier, absorbing a certain amount of damage from the enemy team before being destroyed. The bubble is hollow, meaning an enemy inside the bubble can still hit Winston or his allies if they are also inside the bubble. The barrier will disappear automatically after a few seconds. Winston Zarya: This is definitely an underrated combo, as Winston is guaranteed to take damage during a dive. Make sure to call for your Zarya to push up when you create space to be able to retain it over time. Both of your weapons are also beam damage, meaning that this is on paper, a good duo against Diva (Especially an overtly aggressive one taking too much unnecessary damage).

Customer reviews

Primal Rage is possibly a reference to the 1994 game Primal Rage, which features two ape-like characters, one of which is named Blizzard. This highground not only allows you to freely drop on the enemy team when they path through main or coast, but can also deny any push/make it risky through the right side. If Winston has more than 200 health (350 in role queue) at the end of the duration, it becomes 200 (350 in role queue). If he has any armor, it is transferred over. (E.g. 700 health, 50 armor becomes 200 health, 50 armor. 550 health, 0 armor becomes 200 health, 0 armor.) This makes Winston project a shield dome with a 5 meter radius, 700 health, lasting 9 seconds with a 13 second cooldown.
