The main role of the Reaper is to penetrate the rear of the enemy and damage his support and damage to his heroes. Since he can kill most of the heroes with two shots in the head, the reaper copes with the rapid destruction of opponents. His Shadow Step allows him to easily bypass the enemy from the flank, silently teleporting to the enemy. Although he is mortally dangerous in close combat, he is almost helpless in distant battles.

Step of shadow * * Teleport to the indicated place at an average distance. To cancel the aiming phase of this ability, press the alternative fire button.

Tips and Cunning of the Reaper

• Your main task is to pose a threat to the enemy team. We know that it sounds vile, but this is the best way to get the maximum return from the style of the game of the Reaper. The reaper succeeds in attacking the opponent’s back line and the destruction of support, and you must be prepared for his aggressive style of the game.

* Due to the weakening of the weapon in Overwatch 2, the reaper requires more accuracy than ever. Never underestimate the potential damage to the shot in the head. Try to see how many shots you can put on enemy bots in a row at a training ground. * Participate in battles in which you are not sure that you can win-at the very beginning. The passive ability of the Reaper restores an amazing amount of health, so you are probably more self-sufficient than you think. Va-Bank in battles can help you find your limits, and not constantly retreat and not disclose all your potential.
