Hero matchups/uses

Hello! I've played a good few matches with all the characters, so I'd like to say my opinions on what each hero is good for/their best matchups.

Lt. C Jones (Healer)

Good against: Drone, Tank

Struggles with: Mars, Assassin, Scorpion

  • Good in almost every comp

  • Synergizes really well with the drone due to its low health, allowing the drone to get back in the fight faster

  • pretty low DPS

Aretheya (Archer)

Good against: None specifically, jack of all trades

Struggles with: Tank, Scorpion, Mars

  • Hook is absolutely diabolical

  • EMP is borderline undodgable if you have good aim

  • Pretty bad close range DPS unless you have multi-arrow to a high level

HBV (Tank)

Good against: Archer, Healer

Struggles with:Mars, Drone (kinda), Assassin

  • Highest HP in the game besides the Titan

  • Consistent long-range damage, perfect for taking towers

  • Very limited range of motion, also very clunky to control

Dr. J Stern (Scientist)

Good against: Assassin, Mars (depends on the player), Groups of enemies

Struggles with: Archer (no hook), Healer, Drone

  • Insane DPS up close

  • Grenades have a large AOE

  • Pretty inconsistent long-range DPS

  • Manual reload (and very often at that)

Niederhorn (Assassin)

Good against: Healer, Archer, Tank

Struggles with: Mars, Scorpion, Scientist

  • Very high close range DPS

  • Very good for farming earth artifacts, even at level 1

  • Some of the beat mobility in the game

  • Any more than 1 person nearby and you're cooked

Mars (Axe dude)

Good against: Everyone

Struggles with: Spaced out groups of enemies, Scientist (if the scientist is really good)

  • Very high close and long-range DPS

  • Level 10 ability to double the charge speed is overpowered AF (one throw every 0.5 sec)

  • Ties for the best 3rd ability in the game (Elimination). Only comparable to Drone's Hellfire

  • Can easily kill any hero in a 1v1

  • Struggles against being shot from several angles

-Low HP due to the shield

RSO (Drone)

Good against: Assassin, Scorpion, Titan

Struggles with: Healer, Mars, Minigunner

  • Best mobility in the game

  • High long-range DPS, especially after the 11 ammo/sec upgrade

  • Hellfire is one of the best abilities in the game

  • Lowest HP in the game

  • Literal target practice for healers

  • You will be targeted to hell and back

Col. George Smith (Minigunner)

Good against: Drone, Tank, okay against everyone else

Struggles with: Mars, Assassin, Scorpion

  • Beams drones out of the sky

  • Turret makes him the #1 tower taker besides the titan

  • Up to 14 seconds of continuous mayhem

  • Slow, with little mobility

  • Turret has pretty low HP

Nemesis (Scorpion)

Good against: Healer, Archer, Assassin

Struggles with: Mars (sometimes), Tank, Drone

  • Assassin with high HP

  • Very good mobility

  • 3rd Ability males her almost unkillable in her zone (seriously 40% DR is insane)

  • Melee only

  • Weak against groups

  • High mobility males her a target

Caleo (Dagger bitch)

Good against: All (of you're good)

Struggles with: All (if you suck)

  • Second best mobility

  • Giant ass slow grenade with a short cooldown

  • 3rd ability is a free kill in a 1v1

  • Highest slill requirement by far

  • Borderline useless until she gets her flips at level 5

  • Pretty low HP

And that's it! Obviously yall will disagree but feel free to correct me on anything.
