A short guide on how to make Widows
Insta-lock Widowmaker no matter the situation. Enter the voice chat with the confidence you killed your husband with and announce that you are going ot carry the team.
Never switch. Up against a 6 Stack of Winstons? Perfect time for Harambe 2.0.
You are allergic to the objective and you will die upon touching it. Stay as much in the back line as possible and guard that one flank that only one character can use, even when your enemy team doesn’t even have said character. You are the ultimate defense, nothing gets past you (Except for the enemy Reinhardt, D.Va, Ana, Soldier, and Lucio)
Remember your mine! It’s here to warn you against flankers. The closer the flankers are, the more of a threat they present. To get the maxium value out of your mine and to make sure it doesn’t get triggered accidentally position it righ tnext to you. That way you get alerted as soon as someone sneaks up on you.
An enemy Widowmaker is your greatest threat! As soon as you see her, be prepared to do the ancient shitty sniper tango. May the best spider win.
Your grappling hook can be used for Trick Shots! Still don’t have ‘Smooth as Silk?’ Then spend the entire game waiting for your hook to be off CD, use it, fail, and then wait again.
If you have Smooth as Silk be sure to show it off all the time. Doesn’t matter that you got it by pure luck as you headshotted someone and the enemy Pharah hit you with your rocket at the same time. It still counts.
You are far away from health packs most of the time but that is what healers are there for! Make sure to go up on the highest location possible and spam ‘I NEED HEALING’ while not moving to the edge.
Remember, if you win then you carried the team. You might only have 3 eliminations and 20% accuracy but that doesn’t matter, you killed a charging Reinhardt once. You contributed.
If you don’t have the Mistletoe Highlight Intro then don’t even bother playing her tbh.
