With the launch of Overwatch 2 veterans and players new to the series are experiencing the reworks of different characters. A week after its launch a tier list was made to find out who is Overwatch 2’s best Support Hero to play as in Season 1.
It’s important to understand regardless of where heroes are placed in the tier list, any character can be utilized in Overwatch 2. This means you can play a character ranked first and still lose or play a character ranked last and still win.
Support – Whether it’s healing teammates or disrupting enemy attackers, healers will be the backbone of any team. This role is built for those who would rather keep minimal distance from combat and aid their team.
Must-have support for the team, Lucio will keep the party moving with his constant heals and speed buffs. Lucio’s high mobility lets him chase down allies who need healing. He does decent damage and healing but he’s relied on keeping points contested. With abilities such as wall-run, and crossfade he can easily distract the enemy team.
A support character that can do it all, Ana is a support that should be ranked at the top of most players’ lists. Ana’s kit is built not only for defense but for offense as well. Coming in with a sleep dart, support grenades, and an ultimate that can supercharge allies, she’s putting the team on her back. She’s a sniper so players just need to practice their aim before mastering this character
Now while she is one of the best players needs to actually play Moira correctly for her to be an effective healer. Moira is not only a good healer but she’s also useful for dishing out damage. In a fight, most players tend to forget their assigned role and turn her into a DPS character forgetting her support assignment. Moira has two different attacks. One heals while the other damages. If players can find a proper balance between the two then Moira becomes an efficient support role.
While these are Overwatch 2’s best support heroes there are others that can still get the job done. Here are the other heroes ranked amongst the tier list.
Kiriko, Zenyatta
Baptiste, Mercy, Brigitte
