can i give you a tip? go to MENU>options>CONTROLS>KIRIKO>TURN OFF HEALING OFUDA. that way you fire just 2 healing tickets, instead of the 5 long animations.
Remember when Your Overwatch predicted some sort of team vs team ranked/guild system.
Now we dont even have groupfinder anymore. cant even 5 stack.... such a shame
@@jbholland1987 alternatively (if its on) you can click "primaryfire" again or click/hold "secondary fire" to cancel healing ofuda. but i personally turn it off too
Poor Feign, I feel your pain.
My favorite part is when Kiriko said “it’s Kiriko’ing time” and then Kiriko’d everywhere. Truly one of the supports I’ve ever meta’d.
holy fuck this shit is getting old. please stop.
@@Libreom I love the part where Libreom said "it's Libreom'ing time" and Libreom'ed all over, truly one of the comments I've ever seen.
@@SwiggySwoo good one ill admit i smirked. still tired of this meme tho lmfao
@@Libreom I've never even seen this meme before today
@@Libreom everyone thinks it’s funny if it’s about them 💀
4:40 this is one of THE most solid pieces of advice for Kiriko aiming. Even before coming to the video I adapted a part of thr trick of using the enemy's movement against them by allowing them to walk into the headshot. Incredibly effective and they're so satisfying to pop off lol.
Everyone was scared that she would be too overpowered and she truly is no where near that. Playing with her is just like everyone else… timing and also just knowing when to use what ever.
She’s truly very balanced.
Yes - also, at lower ranks, she perfoms worse than all the other healers. People go "oh X said she's meta so I'm gonna kick some serious ass now" but nope, it's not happening.
Kind of reminds me of astra from valorant, requires half a brain to use which is half a brain more than most players have
@@abrawolf Astra was kinda op when released, the community just realized it a little bit late.
Kiriko is lowkey underpowered in my opinion, compared to Zennyatta she does about the same amount of healing but less damage.
@@ajgerbi that’s why I’m glad they upped her ammo count a bit too because 12 blades was not enough. Lol just those 3 make a little bit of difference. Just like everyone thought ramattra was going to break the game. I told everyone that he’s going to be the most balanced character we’ve got this meta of Overwatch😂
kiriko feels like the most fair support ever released
Her dmg is hard to get, good heals easy to pull off but not impossible to outdamage. Good stuff
She is absolutely broken, does insane damage and her projectile size is way too big. Suzu has crazy dueling potential and is low risk to use since the cd is not that long. I don’t care though bc I’ll be abusing her to top 500
@@OE-zv9gq tell us how that goes
She feels like Ana without the insane healing, which is a good thing. Ana by herself is very well designed, but her numbers set a bad precedent for supports to come like Moira and Baptiste
@@OE-zv9gq her protective hit box is the same as Zen orbs, just a lil bigger than hanzo
I think you can compare Kiriko to Bap in terms of shooting in between heals. There is a bit of a delay between your healing salvos as Kiriko. Usually enough time to toss out a kunai or two before you are able to heal again.
You can send 2, but it's super tight timing. If you want to slow down to aim, then it's usually better to take the time to toss out one accurate kunai before casting Ofuda again.
Unless you're spamming a choke, but your tank shouldn't desperately need the back-to-back ofuda if that's the case and the fight hasn't started yet.
Was going to say the same, she can definitely do the same as bap, 2 in a tight timing, 1 more carefully placed, 1+suzu, reload, 1+melee, etc. All work between ofudas so I wouldn't say she doesn't have that.
His point still stands, bap is way better to put pressure on shields. Kiriko's damage on shields is laughable, but she has something Bap doesn't have. Both her and Bap can reach higher ground and shoot above the shield in weird angles to control the positioning of the tank. The difference is, Bap doesn't have her dash, so she can go way deeper and have a way to come back, while bap will probably die or waste his lantern at least doing that in a lot of cases. Helping with shields isn't just shooting at it, there are multiple ways to help as a supp.
@@robinv1485 You guys are missing an important point. Bap has a gap between heal nades you can use to shoot once. You're describing CREATING a gap in her healing to choose to damage instead, which I think because it's 13 per talisman, you're now doing 23 healing a second which ummm. not good.
I play on console (I know, I know), but I noticed that if I hold kunai trigger first, then hold healing trigger with it, Kiriko throws two kunai between healing reloads.
But I don't do this, as the Genji diving me requires precise shots if I have any hope of surviving the 1v1.
(Always nice when I can waste his resources and teleport away, even if I can't eliminate the little turd.)
@@YourOverwatch No, it's the same as Baptiste, you can fire 2 Kunai in the time it takes for the Ofuda UI to "reload". I think you can do it by hold-buffering ofuda after you fire the first shot.
It will animation cancel the last throw with the ofuda cast, but it will still throw it.
However, that's usually not great, so it's better to use the gap to try to hit an accurate ofuda, since the Window for the second shot is so goddamn small.
You can treat her like Bap with that, but it might be better to just save your 12 ammo if you aren't gonna hit something worthwhile. Bap has a much larger damage clip
One of the things I'm realizing is crucial for maximized Kitsune Rushes is making sure to save it until after they spend their tank ult, or at least 1 dps ult/to counter it. Shutting down a S76 is easy when you don't have to worry about an off angle High Noon or free Earthshatter, for example.
Then again u can use it to bait the enemy ult and cleanse a rein earth shatter
@@bigfsi_smite777 this is a rly risky play but I usually ult early so this ends up happening anyway lol. Lots of upset Dvas thinking they got easy bombs too
I really enjoy playing Kiriko. Her healing is great and taking out a Widow or an Ashe from downtown is the cherry on top.
Kiriko feels super balanced honestly. I think she's perfect in her spot. I really hope she won't fall in the Pro Meta balance nightmare
I mostly agree. I honestly feel like her fire rate or body shot dmg should get buffed just a bit, nothing crazy. In one of Freedo's videos from yesterday (10/17) he quoted the devs as saying Kiriko's dmg output is on par w Ana's, which probably lower than they intended.
@@idk777ish I feel like her projectile speed should be a tad faster too. Not by much but to me it feels too slow, especially noticeable when you’re playing on console
Tbh I think they need to make her hs bonus lower and her normal damage higher, I know it’s her like unique trait but I think like a more consistent damage would be better for her.
I feel buffing yhe bodyshot and changing the us a little lower would be good, like a maybe 2.75x damage or sum
@@LeonSmith_ that would just make her a genji, she’s not suppose to be a dps she’s a support
@@idk777ish it shouldn't for how safe she is & the long range healing
I immediately rebound kunai to left click and healing to right click. Idk if anyone else has done that but it feels WAY more intutive to me that way haha.
i have feels so much better
@@crimsonshadowx6 same
Kiriko's Swift Mend is great for all the teammates who constantly break LOS while you're healing them. It also cleanses you like Sombra's Translocator and provides invincibility frames. On the topic of getting LOS, as a Mercy main, "Come to me for healing" is my favorite new ping.
Thank you for always making educational and relatable content!!
I'm so happy to finally another support that's skilled like ana this will be my first ranked match since 2020
Wdym skilled like ana
she is disabled in ranked in s1
Nah thinbeard, she joined the party today
@@TheDevos1 probably “muh aim” basically
@@clarkkent1616 that’s what I thought lol
fantastic explanation on frame shooting, I am sure that will help some people. Great video!
Watching this video a year later because I was looking for tips on how to aim with her and framing the shots as you described worked wonders immediately. I'm winning so many more 1v1s now. I obviously knew about wanting to anticipate enemies going for cover/escape routes, etc, but the idea of the frame and sort of aiming in the center of that could be a gamechanger for me with other projectile heroes too. Thanks a bunch!
Finally I’ve been waiting to grind her in ranked. Also super excited to see the cyber hanzo skin
I think you missed a really big part of why Winston is good against Kiriko: Barriers block her healing, and that bubble is very good at getting in between her and her team.
I already knew the aim frame kiriko guide!
This guide is the best I’ve seen as many guides just go thru the basic ways the abilities work and not how to utilise them effectively and properly
You've been on fire. Great video.
Loved the vid, would have liked that you commented on what support duos are best with kiriko but great guide nonetheless
Good stuff!
EARLY LETS GOOO! Keep up the work!
One interesting thing about Kiriko's ult that I've been noticing is that, because everyone who uses it wants to stand in the middle of it, it makes it really easy to line up those headshots against an enemy team that's using it. This makes the Kiriko v. Kiriko matchup (which is so common right now) kind of a double-edged sword. Granted, you don't exactly want to stand in a position where you'll get blown up when the other team has the ult going, but if you can get some shots in while you're repositioning out of its area you can get some cheeky kills and turn the fight against them.
Very helpful and easy to understand, just have to put it into practice lol
i found it useful!!! ty
Hey I was wondering if you could make another how to 1v1 as very hero guide, I remember back in the day you making a guide when they had just added eco point Antarctica for duels. That guide really helped me in my OW journey so an updated one would be amazing!
This is really cool I have never seen anyone frame aiming this way...
It kind of riffs off the idea of "shoot where they're going, not where they're at" and I often say that aloud to myself when I'm playing :P
I don’t feel like this went deep enough on pairings or the ideal ways to use the Suzu, which seems to be the hardest part of her kit from a game sense perspective.
Something that might help you aim with Kiriko is ignoring her hand animations because the timing of her shots and hand movements are not in sync
I've missed you guys. Glad to see Overwatch coming back on people's radars
Totally agree that kiriko works well with dive tanks.. Winston and doomfist are pretty fun to play with. Might want to add that you can toggle her healing in the settings, so that you don't have to send out all 5 of the healing ammo each time.
YES! I FORGOT THAT~!
You can also achieve that in default settings by clicking once instead of holding the left mouse button and during the healing click again to stop sending heals.
Okay so 2 minutes in and there is already a mistake. Kiriko DOES have a burst healing ability, many people don't know this but Protection Suzu actually heals all affected targets for 50 hp, which combined with the invulnerability that allows you to get some ofuda's in, is really a burst heal
Yeah but if you use it to burst heal someone then you don’t have it to cleanse later and it’s a long cooldown for a burst heal
@@jontaii152 that doesn't negate the point. In a pinch it can be really key to jump in and suzu heal your teammates from a blade or some other key damage.
@@Alyx1337 I wasn’t trying to negate the point but go off lol
@@jontaii152 That is a fair point, I definitely use it too casually, but even so, it is still a sort of burst heal, not a very strong one comparatively of course
The talismans also heal other team members if they are close enough! I like to hit enemies like a charging Rhein or Dva with the Suzu as it makes them bounce back. Being a newer character ppl freak out like what just happened and start running away lol! Also great vs tracers and genjis when they charge at you, and Hog if he hooks you! You get space, invulnerability, and healing all in once. Enough time to teleport out of there!
One of my favorite ult combos is as soon as Ashe Bob’s, Kiriko ult makes it an absolute canon
YOUR OVERWATCH IS BACK ON THE FEED BOYS :D
Is nobody going to talk about how a bald guy is informing us about hair loss? The OW stress already got to him
brian that was the joke mate
Great video! Wondering if there's gonna be a similar video for Junker Queen, I feel like she has a really high skill ceiling as a hero
An even better one I think...
6:43 "Imagen the frame of option they [the enemy ] have" I need to embrace this. More thinking, less spraying lol. I don't play Overwatch alot but I do love the game (I should play it more). I like Kiriko but she feels tricky to play even medium good. This video had some really good pointers and tips I'm looking forward to trying out in game. Thanks. 😊
In comp I’m looking for survivability and the power to make game changing plays. she just isn’t that for any of my open queues. Sticking with Moira/Zen. But she’s sooo fun to play casually.
"Framing The Shot" was called "Predictive Shot" in "The Boomer Days" over 20 years ago (I started around 1999 in ESPL (which became ESL)).
A good explanation is, that you have to predict the upcoming movement / actions of your enemy and pre-aim to where your oponnent is going to be.
If you do this all of the time like "hes going to move this way and use ability X/Y" you are going to get WAY better in the game, since you can think about how to deal with "ability X/Y" seconds ahead of your enemy.
For example: In a 1v1 duel *A LOT* of Genji players will immediately use their dash after they used deflect. As Kiriko you can use your Suzu to avoid getting hit by predicting when deflect ends.
but did you know the heal things are toggleable so you dont spend them all?
Close combat you can also use a Brigitte. The way I do it is Flail whip then go for the kill if not available then Shield dash to a Kiriko as Brigitte
Can you make a video on the player icon silhouettes? I have seen a couple people with them but there is no tool tip on unlocking them.
what crosshair setting do you use? i really like the one used in the video
6:08 daum that still image looks so good
the rein and winston as being strong against kiriko indirectly was a good observation
What would be good settings for Kiriko?
Something to keep in mind, you are invincible during the teleport animation. This means that even if you don't move that much, porting can still dodge that Rein charge or DVa ult if you time it correctly like a Reaper Wraithwalk, Sombra Translocator or an Echo transformation.
I was trapped in a tiny room with my orisa and an ulting Dva, i survived by looking to the right and telelporting to the Fortified Orisa within melee reach of me.
It's worth noting that you can dodge everything with dash, I've dodged even Cassidy's deadeye, but it has a strict timing. You're still vulnerable in the beginning of the animation and most times its worth throwing suzu if you're about to die (at least to auto attacks). The amount of times I died in the teleport animation because I was greedy and didn't throw suzu before (which is faster) is insane.
if she was within melee distance, you can't use the dash, needs a certain distance, its like 5 meters or so.
I’ve found wrecking ball to be a fairly decent matchup vs Kiriko. The mines, CC and combination of high base hp and lack of a crit box when in ball mode makes kiriko a little redundant in that 1v1. Obviously she can just ignore him, but he also pairs really solidly with a kiriko; being a good engagement/cleanup tank, a viable teleport option and having a giga machine gun + cool-downs on crack when combined with her ult
Idk if it's these few updates but you can stop her heal by clicking again
Dude, I must say, I love how tou advertise. I can´t even buy most for being brazilian (and because of our currency also), but man, I do love to watch new ones.
I like the way you explain her kit, you should one of these videos for doomfist! I know he’s Garbo tier but ZBRA is somehow making it work lol
Zbra plays with the best players in the game , I'd like to see him play in lower ranks where no one knows him
the 'spam damage pressure' part definitely makes it a bit more obvious that mercy doesnt have the output in many cases to compete, since shes the only one that doesnt have a good weapon. although she does also have damage boost, which adds damage on top of other attacks, that utility doesnt make up for its limited raw output. i wonder if they'd increase mercy's boost percent a bit, like up to 35%? maybe give her glock a better swap speed and damage, making it a reasonable tradeoff for losing all of your healing output?
it was killing me when you were going teleporting up to genji at first point dorado when you could just climb the damn wall
Nice
4:45 same for Widow play, can't flick HS to save my life, but can camp a frame lol
11:32 im glad that im not the only one who whiffs healing ofuda's at enemies upon first whipping my gaze over to them...
Was zenyata shooting faster in the 'gates' a bug? I thought that was a targeted nerf to zen.
ig it was he was shooting "too fast." think he still gets a boost, it was just overtuned.
These strategy guides have been helpful. It's just on console I feel o do have to adjust some of this becuase of the differences in play. Then again, the metas are different here.
Man i don’t miss my ow console days
that pause at 6:05 is cool
I be out healing everyone when I play kiriko. And hitting those headshots.
does the 70 heal / second take into account her reload? i think her heal is pretty good, but might be slightly lower than 70/sec, techincally.
Averages out
Fantastic info as always!! But her name isn't said "ki-Riko", there's no emphasis mid-word on the R. It's simply "Ki-ri-ko"
I've been playing Kiriko like I've played Zenyatta for years. The deeps are there when needed, but you main focus on play is attrition.
Kiriko isn't there to keep the whole team healed. Nor is she there to do only DPS either. Her kit is tailored to be helpful for nearly any situation. Front line tank battles, or flanking with a Gengi. Kiriko is there to insure the battle always goes in your team's favor. It's all about Attrition, incremental wins.
But I do have a problem with her Kunai. She needs either a projectile speed increase or a rate of fire buff. If you buff her rate of fire (or throw more than one Kunai at a time) then her body shot damage needs a buff and her head shot needs to be nerfed some.
But if they increased the projectile speed, they can keep it the way it is and it should make aiming feel a little more natural. At this point you're kinda gambling where you're aiming at. Hoping they strafe into your aim. And although that's a good strategy, it is very inconsistent.
Kiriko is rapidly becoming one of my favorite support characters. Long time Zenyatta main and Moira main. So she's right up there with my preferred playstyle. But she could use a slight tweak to make her damage more consistent.
Love the video and thank you for the aim pointers. I do have a very slight counter argument for her body shots though. Just for a little personal credit, I am currently Diamond 1 playing mostly Kiriko for my last 7 wins.
I completely agree that her body shot damage is putrid compared to her headshot damage. But I do think it still has it’s place. 2 body shots is about 80 damage and in close quarters 2 body shots and a melee is over 100. Either way if you hit either of those on a squishy, it can scare them enough to disengage and give your team an advantage.
Obviously the most optimal is to land 2 headshots on a dps or support and send them back to spawn, but in a panic or in the poke phase, I do think you can get away with a possible combination of both.
A melee is 30 damage my guy. Yeah sometimes melee is good too lol.
@@YourOverwatch I know it’s not the best take it was just weighing on my head lol
"Kiriko suffers from not having a burst heal"
I mean, If you hit with protection suzu is 180 health and 0.75 seconds of invuln, which really isn't worse than Bap's burst heal. I've been getting good results by using that ability when I would normally be trying to burst heal someone on a different hero
It heals 50
@@jameslowell9656 Except you can get a full heal off (130 HP) before the invuln is over, if you're using it to burst heal, which is the context for my statement.
Kiriko does have a small burst heal for tanks, in high damage situations if you are already healing the tank , using the E at the same time you are recharging her charms and them continue to heal him , it will stack the 70 hp/s plus 50 hp plus 1 sec immunity to be healed with 70 hp/s again.
A burst pseudo-heal on a 14s cooldown which then leaves your team vulnerable to the ults she's there to stop. If you're not going to keep the Suzu around for real threats, why not switch to Moira?
Only do that as last resort to keep tank/team alive (and hopefully fall back), or if there's roll potential. Bell cooldown is too much to spam reliably, especially if enemy team has a smart ana that knows to wait for bell before throwing anti heal nades, or enemy ults
idk who cuhriko is but this was a nice guide for kiriko 👍🏼
Never been this early before
The "framing the shot" helped so much, thank you!
I notice in your game play, you seem to always use all 5 healing papers. You can change kiriko's settings to allow you to only shoot them out while you hold the button. This allows you to stop the animating if necessary to do damage
Another thing about Kirikos ultimate is because of the lingering effect it's almost like it covers a bigger area then it actually does. Players can step in and out of it to only recharge a few seconds off their cooldowns. Think about that when lining it up!
5:25 I do this since I used to play MW3 Infected I let the other players position themselves for me and it always works AIM FOR THE HEAD BABY
if you turn off the ofuda toggle in her settings it makes it way easier to multitask
You should try using some of that hair grow product on yourself
i got 40 hours on her now, 35 in qp, and 5 in ranked.
win rate isn't as high in ranked as other supports (a mere 45% compared to mercy/moira at 70% and 55%), but that seems to be due to a LOT of randoms in ranked don't yet understand what to inherently expect from kiriko team mates/enemies. I was actually surprised how few legacy players in ranked bothered playing qp whatsoever.
Kiriko's bell cannot be slept on, and lets you play games with annoying Ana mains. Bell can wake team from Earthshatter, and completely nullifies Mei's ult. Practice bell s to allow your team to just ignore Dva nukes, or bait out junk tires (high risk/reward tho). Use bell to allow ally mercy to pull off risky resurrections that would normally see her die, just get in the habit of chucking it at mercy in any game. Bell romoves collision from you for 1 second, and displaces enemies. It's very fun to face a charging rein, chuck a bell at has face, and watch him phase thru you to die alone in yout team's backline.
She can heal from an exceptional distance along with flanking, there's some matches I'll be some meters behind an ally Ana, literally watching the ENTIRE map with swift step letting me dive bell/heal a split off team mate. Or save that ana from Sobra/Genji/Reaper. For average players Focus on healing, especially preemptive healing on team mates you think will take dmg in a second or two.
Her headshots are really good cqc while backpedaling, and enemy snipers stand still, or move predictably, if you know the corner they're peaking you can chuck kunai at them, you don't need the kill, just the headshot tink. Snipers will find cover and wait for heals. Out of the fight for 5 seconds. Don't chase the kills unless you have room to, just the headshot tink is often enough for your team to finish off whatever enemy you hit. During group fights, just chuck a few head level around enemy tank, when enemies are grouped it's a lot easier to land crits, Those kunai are like slower Hanzo logs. Again focus healing first.
Don't fight alone, you can force team mates to help you. Even mid fight, her step gives the same as bell, just teleport 3 meters to the left to better position in fight.
Practice wall climbing everywhere. She's a Ninja. Her verticality allows for some insane 'oh no i'm trapped' jukes, and practice wall climb trick shots. A lot of ranged mains still have a hard time aiming up and down versus keeping crosshair at head level and just strafing/sweeping left/right. A desperate wall climb can get your step off cooldown to tele away.
Out of the thousand hours i have in ovverwatch, i had maybe an hour each on genji/hanzo, but i've picked them up for dps roles, just to practice wall climb tricks. Also was a big Titanfall 2 player and have decent hours on Apex. Those games get you thinking verticality quite well as well.
73% win rate, and that’s so low bc I jumped into games with her immediately not knowing her kit as I do. Doing Aim training has helped me improve drastically, i have increased 10% in one night after a few aim training sessions. Makes a big big difference!
5:20 This is why you jump vs projectiles.
Let the kitsune guide you!
COMP KIRIKO LETS GOOOOOOO!!!!
Theres something that should also be noted in Kiriko’s healing ofuda. It’s that at long ranges the delay from when you input to when the target actually gets healed is significantly longer than other healing in the game. Even Ana’s unscoped projectile shots travel slower. You can’t just observe a team fight and react to damage like other heroes. You have to predict whats going to happen to a degree. I whole heartedly believe that if there was a player that could see what would happen even just 1 second in the future with 100% accuracy. that they would make Kiriko broken.
Pretty sure anyone with 1 second future sight would make anything broken in any fps game
@@The.Brother.in.Christ LOL
Uh..? Doesn't the invincibility orb heal some? Because it really does feel like it does.
Probably feels that way because of the invincibility.
What's a main tank?
Out of 100 wins with her I’ve only been out healed twice by a mercy by like 200. I usually do 10/15k per qp match with 20/30 assists.
I like a lot her, but in my experience Baptiste still has the better balance damage/heal.
3:57 SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESH
i love kiriko sword art online
Didn't think I'd like OW again, but I love it. Didn't think I'd mess with Kiriko ever, but I love her. I could not figure out how my aim was taking a dumpster dive vs Bap, and now I understand how to fix that. This video was super helpful, if not just for that one part.
Thank you to the people playing Kiriko for the first time on the enemy team in comp for giving me free SR
That first clip. No healing a truly hit.... if I got healed everytime I seen a kirko try to heal through a wall I'd be full health everytime
At this point I feel like they're saving bastion so they can release him in season 2 as their "new hero"
LMAO i cant stop laughing at the Keeps ad from a bald guy
why doesnt he prefer the dva kiriko matchup over the mankey fox matchup?
When are they going to fix broken career profile stats
Try telling my diamond teammates that "most things don't need full health to be effective."
Hey is there a way you can do a console guide I am very very good with her on console but I wish someone did a in depth guide on console version Kiriko
Their needs to be more console guides for overwatch in general..as someone who likes her, the idea of her being garbage most likely stems from differences in her play on PS5, Xbox etc. Remember. Genji on PC vs console is night and day most of the time till you get to top 500 where everyone's using mnk. Rest of us normals suffer on controller.
Change jump to left trigger
@@stenyethanmathews945 So make your ofuda connected to Button A/X? That just sounds like it’d feel weird lol
It's going to take a lot of effort for a noob like me to get good at aiming with kiriko. But I'll keep trying.
I think this video presents Kiriko's intended playstyle well, but I'm worried she's going to have another playstyle that the developers didn't intend which might be broken until they nerf it: heal bot. Her ult is VERY strong, and it's very difficult to mix in her damage while maximizing her healing output and therefore ultimate generation. Focusing on damage output at all requires you to take riskier positions and not top off your teammates as often. I'm thinking Lucio and Zarya might be the other key heroes for this playstyle, since you want Kiriko to do the bulk of the healing and Zarya is the best tank with Kiriko's ultimate. The extra bubbles make your team virtually impossible to kill. Even if her teammates have to run out of Kiriko ult to chase kills, Zarya can just stay in it and feed them bubbles. We won't know if this is the case for sure just yet, but I'm worried we might see it show up during OWL playoffs
Can't bap do the same thing but also put out astronomically more raw damage? I also think having everyone on the enemy team fall over dead due to window is better than kiriko ult with zarya bubbles, especially given how quick Bap can charge his windows.
I don't doubt a bad ranked player might try to play that way, but I have a hard time seeing that be a higher level meta when Bap exists.
usually you don't need to heal that much in her ult since you can do it so much faster, also your kunai's fire like a smg then, so you can burst down high damage dps or the tank pretty easy yourself. 2-3 kunai, a spot of healing, 2-3 kunai then healing, etc. if you see someone low heal 2x, its so fast you can get them to full health from very low to almost 200 within a second. Also you have 3 suzu, if you throw the first one right before ulting. Then you generate 1 you can use during the ult, then the last one is finished right after. if your team doesn't win then, your team is shit, or the other team is just better.
@@LasertechStudios3142 this is definitely a fair point, but Kiriko does have some benefits over Bap. She is generally more survivable and her ult is much harder to kite. She seems like a hybrid of Bap and Moira to me. It's hard for me to say how she compares to Bap, but what I'm specifically saying is that her ult is particularly strong compared to the rest of her kit, so when you do play her, she might just get used as a heal bot to build ult. That's not saying they won't have to buff her first to make her viable, though
@@pr0faker I agree. I was specifically talking about her focusing on healing when she doesn't have her ult so she can build it faster
I like to Ult with Rhein bc once he shatters and begins swinging that hammer, with the increased speed. It’s pretty epic!
I like how he went straight to kiriko ult tips without a brief explanation to what the ult even is.
Before you say you can "read it in game" or "read between the lines"... Let me remind you this video is a "GUIDE"
I am happy he didn’t explain the abilities as this is an advanced guide. It took me several attempts to find a guide that expects me to know the basics and doesn’t waste time, goes straight to actual game style information.
Exactly kiriko's stats may look weak, but you die very little with that much survivability and thus contributing more. Kunai is super fun to use. Ult is busted and builds decently fast. Has insane mobility with lower cooldowns and suzu is just a budget immortality field that is way more versatile. She is pretty op generally, people will realize it as time goes.
Not before they nerf/buff her.
No she's really not lol
I think she's mid or low tier. Despite hearing so much about how great her damage is I've never seen a single kiriko put up remotely impressive damage yet. She gets hard diffed in duels by anyone that knows how to strafe/jump/crouch spam because it becomes impossible to reliably hit headshots at that point. It really doesn't matter how good your aim is either, it's a slow fire rate projectile and will always have luck involved in landing it and strafe/jump/crouch spamming hard counters her from anywhere but extremely close range.
I knew you’d have the smartest resources the firstest
