You helped me realize how complicated and borderline insane this game is. Compared to a lot of fps, Overwatch is so vastly different and requires you to learn a lot. Great vid!
But there are over 8 years of content on TH-cam and reddit that teaches you how to play, I'd recommend AVOID QUICKPLAY until you know how every hero works in Vs AI in the training category.
Ikr, i left OW for a couple years to play Apex and came back thinking i should be much better at the game now that i have better aim. I was wrong, i got better at getting kills but my overall skill level did not change at all and im still stuck in gold.
@@kitastrophe0 Yeh, lot of ow players hated the 6v6 because it means there are 2 tanks. Not more chaotic but slower haha Oh, and I think you could like to play as Widowmaker, the sniper girl. Just remember to press the aim button to use the single shoot sniper and get all those heads :D
@@kitastrophe0 also about salty people in chat, there's an option in settings to turn text chat off. i would really recommend turning it off cause it's just not worth
Not sure if this is too helpful but Overwatch roles are like a typical fighter game. Tanks lead the team and take the brunt of the damage, DPS are damagers and aim to kill the enemy, and supports are essentially healers who must keep the team alive throughout the fight! - If anyone is a larger character model, it’s safe to assume they’re a tank (Ex. Sigma!). Try not to 1V1 them unless they’re extremely low - Overwatch heroes cannot run, but they have movement abilities. (Ex. Soldiers sprint) These make getting across the map much easier! - As a support, prioritize your tank and critical team mates. If you didn’t previously see, they’ll be yellow with a CRITICAL label on them. - Listening is extremely important in Overwatch, i’m not sure if it is as much in Valorant but Ultimates have certain voicelines that you need to listen out for (as well as enemy steps which will always be louder than your own) 10:03 is an example of an Ultimates voiceline - Know your difference between Projectile and Hitscan heroes. Projectiles take time to travel, while Hitscan immediately hits. (Ex. Kiriko’s knives take time to travel but Soldier’s bullets hit instantly) - Overwatch does have voice chat, you mentioned wanting to talk earlier and it’s in your sound settings! - Support or DPS are definitely an easier starter role, as they don’t bear the responsibility of leading the team- But be warned, Overwatch can be a toxic environment and you will often encounter toxic people Welcome to Overwatch!! I hope you enjoy it
@@GriseWeissharkit's easier for a novice to grasp. By the time they're used to the hero's abilities, they'll naturally find ways to create value from them
The short burst shooting with Tracer is adorable and so Valorant coded awe!!!! Usually we just rush in with Tracer, BLAST everything we got and rewind but this gameplay is lowkey so cute
This opened my eyes to realize how new players see the games, watched a bunch of lore and watched my friend play before joining. It's definitely chaotic and very fast paced. Foot steps and peaking corners only really matters when they're some sort of sniper or if you're worried someones flanking TARGET THE SUPPORTS
Climbing up in rank is kinda frustrating though. You better have duo or stack so you can have better team synergy. A lot of players don't like to swap just like me. But I don't remember myself being this silly when I started playing ow ehehehe.
@@nurikkulanbaev3628I call them characters all the time. Not that it's really wrong, but you know, technically, these are two different aspects of the same thing.
The way you only track your target while tap firing is so funny, truly new player overwatch gameplay is cool to see. You seem like the kind of person who learns quickly, so i’d bet if you keep playing this game will become significantly less chaotic soon. Good luck (underrated channel btw)
"I'm just gonna stand still and shoot" is maybe the most valorant take in this video :D I know the overwatch is a bit overwhelming and confusing for beginners, but you did great ! The game could do a bit more to introduce the difference game modes or roles, but at the same time it let the player discover all of that. Biggest downside is the other players blaming each other, unfortunatly. Cool you had fun while playing it !
It's nice to see new players. The game revolves around game sense and positioning and not only mechanical skill. Please don't listen to music because foot steps and sound queues are actually very important. :( 1)You can tell when someone is about to ult, counter ult, block or cancel their ult. Block Rein ult or JQ ult 2)Tell when a hero is on cool down and what ability they used. Tracer blink, Reaper wraith, Kiri using Suzu/TP etc. 3) Tell what hero is around the corner based on their foot steps. Such as listening to Hog's heavy foot steps, or Cassidy's spurs etc. 4) You can even turn on sound queues for when your teammates die. I often wonder how people not notice the foot steps of a hero flanking for the seventh time or someone stomping on high ground and then I remember that they're probably listening to music lol
@@kitastrophe0 Also yea, you were playing two game modes in one with the King's Row map. Some maps are hybrid mode maps, where you defend a point or stop a payload if the enemy manages to capture the point.
This was genuinely so delightful to watch haha, I’ve been playing ow since middle school and it’s honestly such a fun game for its chaos! There was just something so refreshing about watching you get introduced to the game, exploring it, giving it a chance and enjoying the good aspects of it :D All everyone does in the ow community is complain and sh*t talk all the bads 24/7 so it does weigh down on the casual players :( Hope to see you play it more, it requires a lot of earning but once you get the hang of it, you’d enjoy it for what it is. Absolutely loved your vibes
the current overwatch 2 requires a large knowledgebase of hero names, their skills, and what dialogue they shout when using abilitys and especially ults. The more you build this knowledgebase, the easier and more fun matches become and you won't be so confused. It's really a great chill game if you dont take it too seriously
just a tip since you mentioned at the beginning voice comms dont seem important. voice comms are super needed in games if you want to boost your winrate. important comms involve telling people what cooldowns have been used and the enemy cant use at the moment. for example, kiri's suzu is often called out or her tp which is usually "kiri no tp or suzu". it applies to most characters in the game. there's ult tracking which is gauging who might or might not have ult and comming that so you can play more defensively or offensively depending on what ults you have and what they may or may not have. also if an enemy is low you normally go "heronamehere one" in case someone else can secure the kill for you when you cant. there's other stuff too but those are the most useful ones. the game is A LOT at first but once you learn it and play it, it doesnt seem nearly as chaotic most matches (notice i clarify "most" bc there are some games where i genuinely stare at my screen baffled)
Just for your information, because a lot of heroes are pretty complicated: you can press the F1 key while playing a hero to read about what that hero's abilities do exactly. It's just a short description, but it'll get you an idea of what to do with them. As for Mercy: right click is a damage boost on your team mates, left click is a heal beam and you can scroll to swap to your blaster and shoot enemies so you're not completely defenseless. Edit: I just noticed you did use that later in the video. I should watch til the end to comment lmao
I'm here for this, watching someone learn Overwatch is entertaining as hell. I haven't seen it in a loooong time, I'm a 4000+ hour player there isn't many new players these days.
PLEASE GIVE ME MORE OF THIS. 10/10 recommend watching OW streamers like karq or flats, they have a lot of videos where they review other players games and give tips and just in general informative videos for the game
Each Hero in Overwatch has a unique kit, so it's important to read the hero details to know what they do. For example, Mercy is one of the very few heros that can switch weapon (mouse scroll wheel on pc). She has a small gun as a secondary weapon, and her staff is able to heal/ damage amplify allies Hero Suggestions -------------------------------- Support: Mercy (noob friendly): Mercy is both very mobile which you seem to like, and low agency which can help in building map awareness, gamesense and learning the game modes. Her playstyle is to fly between teammates and healing them/ damage amplify them. She is also the only hero with a resurrect ability Moira (noob friendly): Moira have a very high survivability, since she can become invisible and invulnerable using her 1st ability. Also, both her healing and her damage are easy to use, so you can have a lot of impact even with not much experience Lúcio (fun pick): He can ride walls horizontally, provide healing and speed boost. He can also also push an entire team off the map if you are lucky, using one ability. Gamestyle be like WEEEEEEEEE the entire game Baptiste (shooter like): Baptiste is probably the support that resembles a shooter the most. He shoots damage with his gun and launches healing grenages for his team. He also has an immortality ability, preventing allies from reaching 0 hp. Can jump very high after crouching -------------------------------- Damage: Junkrat (noob friendly): Junkrat is an insane criminal who is obssesed with explosions, and his kit is delivers this theme perfectly. His primary fire is a grenade launcher, with bombes that are able to bounce off walls. Meaning, you can dish out damage even behind covers. He has a landmine ability which allows him to launch himself or enemies in the air, maki g him very mobile and somewhat unpredictable. He has a passive that leaves a bunch of bombs behind when he dies, providing him value even when he dies Reaper (noob friendly): Has a ghost like ability which makes him invulnerable, and and an ability that allows him to teleport in his line of sight. He is a short range fighter with two big fat guns and a lifesteal passive. Great survivability, fun to play. Good vs many of the tanks, and in sneaking into the backlines of the enemy team Mei (survivability): Mei has a relatively high base health for the damage role, making her a bit more biffy. It is important, since she comes in clows and sprays you with a cold air or something, slowing you down. Her abilities are placing a huge wall, and to cover herself with ice. When in ice, she is invulnerable, and heals over time. Her ult is an AoE freeze ability Widowmaker (sniper): She is THE sniper of Overwatch. If you like this kind of playstyle try her out. Has a hook ability which allows her to launch herself in the air and change locations Genji and Hanzo (weeb trap): Two japanese ninja brothers. Genji is a cyborg with shurikens and a huge sword. Hanzo is an archers. Both habe dragon themed ultimate. Can climb walls Genji can double jump. Childhood friends of Kiriko Soldier 76 (shooter like): Soldier 76, as you saw, is the most shooter-like hero in the game, making him a great intro hero for people who come from other shooter games. Basic and reliable -------------------------------- Tank: Is a sense, tanks are the center of the team in overwatch. They don't necessarily do the most, but the team comp in mostly built around them. Tanks require more macro plays than the rest, so they are probably more difficult for beginners than Damage and Support. If you plan on playing OW, and you don't like tanks, give them a try again after you become more familiar with the game Reinhardt (noob friendly): Big german grandpa with big fat shield. Has a huge hammer as his weapen. Shields in Overwatch (actual term is barrier but whatever) recharge slower if they break, so keep that in mind. One of the most reliable tanks in the game, giving great cover for immobile heroes. As long as you don't take the bait of charging in too often, should be relatively easy to play and win with. Ult is AoE stun in front of him D.Va (noob friendly): One of the more mobile heros in Overwatch. She is a gamer girl in a mecha, with a flight ability and guns and missile. Her ult converts her mecha into a bomb, which she can launch into the enemy team using her flight ability. It one shots almost anything in the game. Her defense ability swallows all projectiles that passes through it. Making some heros completely useless against it. Even though she is kind of hard to be good at, she is extremely fun and therefore a good intorduction to tanks in general Zarya (versatility): Zarya kit revolves around her defensive ability. Her bubbles shield either herself or an ally, and any damage the bubble takes converted to amplifying the damage of her own weapon. When fully charge, Zarya is a real threat to any champion in the game, while when the charge is at 0 she barely does anything. Her ultimate is a black hole that sucks in nearby enemies and holds them all in one place. Her weapon can either use a beam for one-target close-range damage or launch bombs for AoE long range damage. Even though she is relatively immobile, she can bubble allies from a long range, enabling risky plays and deep dive of allies possible. If the damage output of the enemies is too high though, they can break her bubbles and make her and her team defenseless, so keep that in mind Wrecking Ball (mobility): A hamster inside a wrecking ball. Moves and swings around, smashes to the ground, etc. Playstyle be like VROOOOOMMMM. Probably most mobile hero in the game
So many funny comments while you were playing: “What would you even comm, ‘I need healing’?”, “Kiriko takes no brainpower”, “footsteps aren’t important”. As others have already said, Overwatch can be a very high level strategy game that requires a lot of game-sense and calling out ultimate usage and cooldowns as well as who to focus down on the enemy team can become incredibly important. At higher levels footsteps are also super important to hear because there will be good flankers who will try to assassinate you especially if you play support. Kiriko is one of the higher skill ceiling heroes in the game but that relies mostly on deep game knowledge of when and how to use her abilities based on which other heroes are in the match and which abilities have or have not been used by other players. The cool thing about Overwatch, though, is that there are heroes with a fairly low skill floor where you can have an impact without having to know too much and they can simultaneously also have a really high skill ceiling where you can be rewarded for very skillful and intelligent play! Glad you were able to enjoy it, though, even if it feels incredibly chaotic at first! And I think your reaction to playing Tank is very natural. Tank is probably the most difficult role to play in Overwatch 2 because so much rests on your shoulders and often one mistake from the Tank will cost a team their team fight. I’ve been playing since the beta for OW1 and I love how impactful I can feel playing Tank, but it can definitely be overwhelming for someone who isn’t deeply familiar with all the heroes and what they do.
Seeing the joy of first experiencing this game and its characters... man, I was smiling throughout the whole video. Also seeing you discover you could break things in spawn, one of the greatest joys lmao. 11:28 This was adorable lmao Would LOVE to see you play more Overwatch, I've played since its open beta and watching new players is always fun.
One thing I will say to you, because people get caught in this loop and never get out is that "Counters do NOT exist". There is this myth that people believe 1 hero can beat another just based on their kit/abilities. When in reality all you need is to just understand the fundamentals. Which vary from role to role. With Support, you heal your teamates when they NEED healing; and when they are good on health, you go and do damage. With Damage role heros, you take aggressive angles adjacent from your team and utilize the hero's kit. The more damage you do, the more likely you are to win and get kills. With Tank, taking space and keeping that space from the tank is the way to go. As tank, taking space is very good. If your DPS want to take an angle so that they can perform better, then it is your job as Tank to keep that space occupied for your DPS. It is a lot and you are will learn a lot. Self reflection, improving yourself is the main way to get good in this game of Overwatch. Play to your heros strength and adapt to how your abilities interact with your enemies and teamates. Goodluck.
as a top 500 overwatch player since beta. this actually disturbed me. But im all for it. seeing someone play the game for the first time in 2024 makes me realize how chaotic the game truly is to a new player. Amazing.
This was really wholesome, wow- really brought me back And yeah, the toxicity in this game is awful most of the time. It’s really discouraging for new players. I don’t get why people insist on doing things that are only gonna hurt the lifespan of their game.
Overwatch becomes a lot easier once you get to know the characters. Not knowing how a character like Zarya or Symmetra works makes them very hard to play against. Some characters can really change the entire playstyle of a team. Some characters can truly hold an entire composition together (often when tanks or supports are really good). The game looks pretty simple but you actually need to know quite a lot. Once you know what every hero does, you're golden. I actually ssuggest playing a bit with random heroes at first. Also, Roadhog has the most pristine body known to man, sculpted like a god and I am ashamed to even lay eyes upon his glorious buzzoms.
This is the most wholesome overwatch video in years. Even the little things like discovering that you can break stuff in the spawn rooms was so wholesome
this is actually so funny to see. Because I've been playing overwatch for 6 years now and I'm between "oh interesting" and "hoW dOEs ShE NoT KnOw tHaT?!". Loved the video♥
I play too much Overwatch, it is quite refreshing seeing someone not flame me for playing it (my IRL friends) and the curiosity, as well as the pure confusion of what is going on
It’s so cute watching a new player!! Seeing someone tap their primary with tracer and zarya 😂 this makes me so happy haha I hope you get into the game.
Kit, basically mercy guide as I have like 100 hours on her not that long but yeah yeah Mercy: The staff that had two toggles you could say yellow is healing and blue is a damage boost. Mercy has a gun (glock) that doesn’t have a set amount of damage but a percentage of their health ex. Mercy vs Mauga (the guy with two mini guns and also a tank) mercy would’ve won like 2 months ago but blizzard patched it sadly. I play controller so this is gonna be complicated but I’m gonna try: RB or the control button you see when facing a teammate is to basically fly to them if you press crouch you go up way more but going straight and aiming is called slingshotting (the nickname.) LT I don’t know what you have this saved as but in the bottom right of your screen you’ll see your abilities and the one with a wing and a plus button (+) is resurrect a teammate. Your ult literally lets you fly. And widow is quite easy if you can aim. The grapple hook lets you grapple to the place your aiming at (this is limited) and AIM in like not looking AIMING I don’t know what you have this saved as once again but you’ll find out if you even read this and play it again. She’s a sniper you can aim in but she has damage fall off where after a certain distance your damage lowers I think it’s 60 meters but patch this blizzard I don’t like horse. Venom mine is practically useless but you place it down and it’s one of your abilities it does 75 dmg and lets you see them through walls for a very limited amount of time. Her ultimate is wallhacks..? Pretty useless if they aren’t all standing still tbh. This is the first video I’ve ever watched on your channel but so far I’m having a great time ❤️!!! Keep up the good content!
watching you play the game for the first time makes me very happy to see. it was really funny when you didn't know the hero's you were playing against like shooting reaper in his little ghostly form i wheezed. despite the toxic things that people say in chat i do hope you have fun playing this silly game.
I love that today's new Overwatch player experience is Suzu-ing the enemy, back in the day we'd shoot at our teammates as Lucio since we didn't understand the healing aura concept 🙃
Love the vid i hope you still upload more overwatch on the channel. Here are a few basic tips that i think are usefull :) For playing DPS -pay atention to your positioning and stay on your healers sigh, if you are flanking or looking for offangles, don't be risky and go back to your team when you feel i'm danger, stay alive is more importante than get the kill (most of the time, but there are exceptions) -Try all heroes and learn their abilities, think if the enemy has their cooldowns before engaging on a duel or assasinstion. For playing Support: -Dont die trying to save somebody, as the most powerful role on the Game, you are the most importante to stay alive. -Dont use your ult immediately if the other support has used it first, is generally better to combo with a dps or your tank. -Try not stay alone never and stay with your team to heal them and so they protect you from flanking heroes. For playing Tank: -To start an atack, don't go by your own because your are gonna die, make sure that your team is following your lead or else, make sure to have a clear route to scape, you are always gonna need to scape. -Pay attention to when you should engage or move back, this you learn by playing and dying a lot. -To use your ult, make clear your intentions to your team on quick or voice chat so they know and that way you can combo with them. Aldo check if their ult is ready. Everything else you learn by playing and with time. I'm no expert but these tips have helped me and here they are. Finally and most important, have fun playing ❤️
I absolutely loved this 😭 watching first time players encounter the CHAOS of overwatch especially a Valorant player is SO FUNNY. It’s so fast paced and team oriented so it’s really fun to see I hope you continue playing and have fun despite the toxic people 💀
This is why I’m so privileged I had OW veterans (one being one of the best in my country at one point) babysitting me and teaching me… I’d probably have a mental breakdown trying to figure all this out on my own!!
"i feel like noone is healing me" quick tip, supports usually don't heal you unless ur infront of them or where the main fight is, so try to stay with ur support unless ur confident. they also tend to focus on healing tank, especially in worse lobbies they don't heal their other teammates as much
As someone who has played this game way too much, its always such a joy seeing new people try this game and go through all the chaos and try to figure out what's happening.
i got really into overwatch in 2020 but stopped playing when ow2 came out & sold my xbox. i just recently downloaded ow2 on my laptop & started playing again just because i miss it. this video was very fun to watch as someone who understands 70% of whats going on but all the new characters & their abilities are a mystery to me.
Your reaction every time you got attacked by Reinhardt on route 66 had me dying. Just turn around and scream as you got clobbered with his hammer lol. Very appropriate reaction tbh
As someone that plays both games (Valorant was my first fps and online game ever) I have to say that sometimes just reading the abilities can be helpful but I would suggest trying the vs AI mode for characters that you don't feel comfortable using in a real match, that way you can see at least how some abilities interact with your team and your enemies without the pressure of people been mean to you, cause people are really toxic specially in qp which is so weird but you know, people are going to try hard I guess. Characters that I recommend: for support I would say that Juno is a pretty begginer friendly character, the only difficult thing to use at first would be the ult but you can get the hand of it in a few matches, another good candidate if you want to do good damage and healing would be Baptiste, his shooting is similar to the Vandal or Bulldog I guess and his healing while it can be a bit weird at the beginning you get used to it and his abilities are easy to use but do require good timing. DPS: If you want something simple then you are fine with Soldier and Sojourn, Ashe is also a good choice that rewards good aim and her kit is pretty straight forward, Torbjorn is like Killjoy but his turret last until is destroyed and doesn't have activation range lol Tank: This role is difficult to recommend characters honestly, but I guess that characters like Sigma and Ramattra can be easier options in comparison to the rest of the tanks ( Reinhard is also easy cause you only need to swing a big hammer around but he is a close combat heroe so maybe not a good option for the start)
Genuinely one of the most entertaining and also enlightening videos I've seen on OW Like I've played this game long enough that I can just instantly grasp what's on the screen and had totally forgot what it was like for a new player. Absolutely fantastic vid, lol I'm glad this popped up in my feed, great stuff and hope ya have a happy new year.
As an overwatch player, watching you play like this remindes me of when I first started a couple years ago. It is so adorable and it is really fun to watch you play ☺️. If we ever run into each other in a game I will definetly be friendly and probably emote to you. I always like to say hello to the Enemy Team. Lot of OW Players say the toxic people went to Marvel Rivals btw. So I hope you have a great gaming experience and meet a bunch of nice people on there.
Hello, at 5:32 i can assure you voice chat is really needed in overwatch competitive, it's all about team decisions, so you gotta be coordinated with your teamates
This was such a wholesome watch. I've been playing since OW release so it was so nice seeing OW from the eyes of a new player again. Subscribed - I can't wait to see more!
Wow I’ve been playing (not regularly) Overwatch since like 2018 and I didn’t realize it’s so hard to figure out until watching this. To me it’s so simple now
A cool tip about Kiriko is if you can shoot and punch at the same time. So if you’re near an enemy shoot punch them to do more damage. You can also survive lethal ults if you perfectly time when you throw that healing ball(I forgot what it’s called) toward the ground at yourself(It also heals you) Kiriko’s ult is also amazing when paired with certain characters. Like Genji, soldier, or Moira. Use it if you hear them use their ult but perfectly place it.
omg it’s so refreshing to see the perespective of new OW players and seeing you have fun with it fills my heart! HIGHLY RECOMMEND WATCHING THE HERO VIDEOS ON YT - will help with getting to know the heros and their abilities
Diamond Kiriko main here!! You actually unintentionally did what good kirikos should do lol.. she does insane damage (with the bonus dmg on critical hits) and people should take advantage of that. Her teleportation ability allows for you to flank on the enemy team, two-tap a low health character in the head, and then get back to your team with barely a scratch. Her other ability, suzu, is one of, if not the best ability in the game. It cleanses any negative effect and gives brief immunity plus healing, allowing for you to cancel a lottt of ultimates if you time it right. In regards to Kiriko ultimate, you should use it offensively most of the time as a fight initiator. Try to coordinate with your team to prepare to rush in and delete the enemy team. It gives faster movement, faster firing, faster reload, and less cooldown time on abilities (it's a CRACKED ultimate) Can easily win fights if the enemy team doesn't retaliate with a crazy amount of ults. Kiriko is sooo fun with her different playstyles (flanking and doing lots of damage and escaping easily and repeating, OR focusing on healing-which she can do a lottt of, and making game-changing saves to your team with suzu) and she works well in, dare I say, every single team composition. All this info is if you really wanna take overwatch seriously and grind comp games to win! Just remember to have fun!!
I come accross players like this on my team. I always get stressed out but trying to chill if their endorsement is low. Which means theyre probably new.
This was fan-f**king-tastic to watch. I've been playing OW on and off since 2017 and when OW2 dropped my 5 year old son saw me playing and asked me to teach him. Brooooooo let me tell you, this was more or less his exact sentiments while learning the game. Now he's 7 and about to be plat in all roles. I need more of your journey
This was a really funny video, the moment u started to shoot in bursts make me laugh so hard lmaooo (specially zarya💀😂) Ive been playin OW since 2017 is crazy to see some1 completely new to the game, hope u like it, at first is so chaotic and dynamic that u dont even know what u r doin but when u start to understanding it, OW has something special that any other FPS hasn't and catches u really hard, is so addictive. Also dont worry bout the people, in the quick plays of this game u can find people even more tryhard than in ranked (yes it is crazy and doesnt have any sense) so its completely normal, just mute and avoid, so u dont get matched with them again. Great vid
It definitely helps when you already have friends who know how the game works and you hop into quick play with them and can just ask them questions quickly
>looks up and shoots at Pharah Well, you're already better than most players in this game. Jokes aside, you did really well for your first time. Overwatch is a very complex game that takes hundreds of hours to comprehend. Take your time and don't feel pressured to perform perfectly. As for the different roles: The job of the Tank is to initiate fights as well as take and control space. A big difference from Valorant is that they do this with their bodies and positioning instead of for example smokes. The job of the Damage is to frag. That's it. The job of the Support is to not die. After you've made sure that you are not dead, try to make teammates not die as well.
As a person who knows nothing about Val, this was very entertaining to watch. You’ll kind of pick it up as you go. For your first game with kirko you were killing it 😊
Lmaoo this reminded me of the time when I started playing ow, it was so overwhelming especially after Val but I started to really like it especially because it is so chaotic and now I tried out marvel rivals and its somehow even more chaotic
Tips: tracer is the hardest hero its better to leave her until you get better - heroes categories in these 3 ( brawl, poke, dive) brawl = slow moving and constant dmg , poke = take angels and shoot until they die , dive = jumping on the enemies. Each one counters the other most of the time, brawl > dive , dive > poke, poke > brawl. But its always ends up to what the meta is and how good you play, these give u some advantages here and there and every meta is based on one of them 3 -Use the map to your advantage. Like, soldier used his ult ? Np ima hide behind the wall
I just discovered your channel through this video and I'm staying for the commentary & gameplay the soldier ult in front of the genji took me out LOL XD
I usually don't watch overwatch videos, I just play it but let me say that THIS WAS SO FUN TO WATCH and you're such a good entertainer and everything looks so cute and enjoyable in your channel (and, most importantly, NOT TOXIC) , I just discovered it and I will subscribe for sure :3
Support is definitely the most forgiving role, but don't get locked into playing it because of that. There is a lot of fun to be had on dps and even tank. It'll just take a bit more time to get there. If you keep playing, tracer is one of the most challenging and rewarding heroes in the game. Don't feel bad for feeling lost on her, but learning her kit is absolutely worth it. Some other good heroes to know are Ashe, Cassidy, Sojourn, Mei (you will be hated). Definitely check out Ana if/when you unlock her in the support role. She is one of the more mechanically demanding supports and she can have crazy amounts of impact on games with her abilities. She is my main. Some tanks to try would be Junker Queen, Zarya, wrecking ball and maybe even doomfist. I find them to be the most. engaging. It's an interesting time to be a new player in Overwatch. The community is at odds eith each other over 5 or 6 player teams. The 6v6 play test is still active (as of yesterday) and you should definitely give it a go just to see what you enjoy. Personally, I first played overwatch right after the switch to 5v5. I've played consistently for the last 2 years and never had major complaints with the format, BUT I've thoroughly enjoyed the 6v6 format.
Sniper Tracer and everything you did on Zarya were my favorite parts of the video, there's something so special about seeing someone new genuinely having fun with the game (you kinda ate with Kiriko, you just had to learn that Suzu is a defensive ability not offensive heeelp) And one more thing: I don't like playing while I'm listening to music when it gets in the way of hearing and reacting to enemy ults, I don't think anybody should do this but maybe other people don't get as distracted as I do
Kings Row and Blizzard World are hybrid maps where the first objective is to capture/defend the point. If the attacking team successfully captures, then the payload comes out of the wall by the capture area and have to escort it across the map with the arrows indicating the direction on the floor. Route 66 is just a payload map as the payload is right in front of the attacking team’s spawn. There are checkpoints for payload based maps that have to be reached in order for the attacking team to not immediately lose once time runs out. I loved your video. Very much the first time experience. Btw, Mercy heals or damage boosts your teammates. Try using her ability on the friendly bots that are getting shot at in the practice range and not the enemy bots. Enemy bots are highlighted red, friendly bots are highlighted blue. I recommend pressing F1 for hero details and playing with friends who do know how to play for more fun!
A cool tip about Kiriko is you can shoot and punch at the same time. So if you’re near an enemy shoot punch them to do more damage. You can also survive lethal ults if you perfectly time when you throw that healing ball(I forgot what it’s called) toward the ground at yourself(It also heals you) although it is hard to do so try your best to not get put in that position. Kiriko’s ult is also amazing when paired with certain characters. Like Genji, soldier, or Moira. Use it if you hear them use their ult but perfectly place it.
G *ay , go back to the shit game , which you deserve to play like the copy shi * t

You helped me realize how complicated and borderline insane this game is. Compared to a lot of fps, Overwatch is so vastly different and requires you to learn a lot. Great vid!
thank you! :D
But there are over 8 years of content on TH-cam and reddit that teaches you how to play, I'd recommend AVOID QUICKPLAY until you know how every hero works in Vs AI in the training category.
Ikr, i left OW for a couple years to play Apex and came back thinking i should be much better at the game now that i have better aim. I was wrong, i got better at getting kills but my overall skill level did not change at all and im still stuck in gold.
Watching you burst fire on Zarya melted my brain
LMAOO I WAS LAUGHING SO HARD WHILE EDITING AND SEEING THAT CAUSE YOU‘RE SO RIGHT😭
THIS AND SOLDIER I WAS LOSING IT LAUGHING
@@leafrogssoldier at least makes some sense if your not good with the recoil
yeah... something def broke inside me when i saw that
the burst fire on every hero is sooo funny 😭
This is what I've wanted to see. A pure action of a new player in modern Overwatch.
I was shocked when I found out it used to be 6v6 cause that has to be even more chaotic😭
@@kitastrophe0I personally find 6v6 more fun and less chaotic
@@kitastrophe0 Yeh, lot of ow players hated the 6v6 because it means there are 2 tanks. Not more chaotic but slower haha
Oh, and I think you could like to play as Widowmaker, the sniper girl. Just remember to press the aim button to use the single shoot sniper and get all those heads :D
@@lincelinkhell yeah imma try widow next time I play (I will most definitely miss all my shots)
@@kitastrophe0 Almost 9 years playing this game and I still miss half of the shoots, dw hahaha
"this is like a game for people with adhd who need overstimulation" Exactly. this is why i've been stuck playing this shit for 8 years LMAOOOO
🫵😭
@@kitastrophe0 also about salty people in chat, there's an option in settings to turn text chat off. i would really recommend turning it off cause it's just not worth
@@tobitimesthree thank u! ^^
True bruh
Me and you both.... No other game scratches this itch quite like this.
Not sure if this is too helpful but Overwatch roles are like a typical fighter game. Tanks lead the team and take the brunt of the damage, DPS are damagers and aim to kill the enemy, and supports are essentially healers who must keep the team alive throughout the fight!
- If anyone is a larger character model, it’s safe to assume they’re a tank (Ex. Sigma!). Try not to 1V1 them unless they’re extremely low
- Overwatch heroes cannot run, but they have movement abilities. (Ex. Soldiers sprint) These make getting across the map much easier!
- As a support, prioritize your tank and critical team mates. If you didn’t previously see, they’ll be yellow with a CRITICAL label on them.
- Listening is extremely important in Overwatch, i’m not sure if it is as much in Valorant but Ultimates have certain voicelines that you need to listen out for (as well as enemy steps which will always be louder than your own) 10:03 is an example of an Ultimates voiceline
- Know your difference between Projectile and Hitscan heroes. Projectiles take time to travel, while Hitscan immediately hits. (Ex. Kiriko’s knives take time to travel but Soldier’s bullets hit instantly)
- Overwatch does have voice chat, you mentioned wanting to talk earlier and it’s in your sound settings!
- Support or DPS are definitely an easier starter role, as they don’t bear the responsibility of leading the team- But be warned, Overwatch can be a toxic environment and you will often encounter toxic people
Welcome to Overwatch!! I hope you enjoy it
bro dropped a whole ass guide FOR FREE😭 thank you haha :D
Also for supports, most of the ults interact with your team in some way so use them when your team’s around
@@kitastrophe0 If you want to get even more confused, check kajor out. He is on a different level😭
I feel like supports being described as just the "healers" do them dirty. They're the enablers of the team.
@@GriseWeissharkit's easier for a novice to grasp. By the time they're used to the hero's abilities, they'll naturally find ways to create value from them
The short burst shooting with Tracer is adorable and so Valorant coded awe!!!!
Usually we just rush in with Tracer, BLAST everything we got and rewind but this gameplay is lowkey so cute
haha ty!😭🫶
the children yearn for more overwatch content

As an overwatch player, I loved watching this. Indeed, this game is very much chaotic, but I'm so glad you had fun playing it !
yeah now that I understand the game it’s so much fun😭
@@kitastrophe0 moreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
This opened my eyes to realize how new players see the games, watched a bunch of lore and watched my friend play before joining.
It's definitely chaotic and very fast paced. Foot steps and peaking corners only really matters when they're some sort of sniper or if you're worried someones flanking
TARGET THE SUPPORTS
bro prepared himself for a game like he would for an exam I respect it lmao😭✋
@@kitastrophe0 i have to if im gonna carry (I play mercy and LW)
this is so wholesome and cute. Overwatch is so much fun when it's chaotic
yeah I‘m obsessed, now that I understand it better😭
Climbing up in rank is kinda frustrating though. You better have duo or stack so you can have better team synergy. A lot of players don't like to swap just like me. But I don't remember myself being this silly when I started playing ow ehehehe.
Dats why 6v6 is great fuck ow2 5v5 we never asked for dat shit
you indeed need to listen to footsteps, depends on what heros the enemies are playing
yeah, true when someone is flanking😭
True but it's not the same in Val where footsteps are everything and you're sneaking half the match
i love how u keep calling them agents instead of heros
the valorant lingo is ingrained in me🧿👄🧿
@@kitastrophe0 Its okay. I used to call them Champions🤣
@@nurikkulanbaev3628I call them characters all the time. Not that it's really wrong, but you know, technically, these are two different aspects of the same thing.
Just like how we call characters in other games heroes
not you burst firing for every hero haha 😭
MOM I’M GETTING BULLIED🫵😭
@kitastrophe0 we need to play togetherr 😆
watching a beginner is so funny
rewatching this now that I understand the game is painful😭
It's been so long since I first started and this hits with nostalgia for when everything was fresh and new.
can’t wait ‘til I no longer feel the spark anymore😎😎
SUZU AT THE ENEMY MADE ME GASP
IT NEVER HAPPENED ALRIGHT💀🤫
It used to do something to enemies which is funny to me. RIP Suzu boop
The way you only track your target while tap firing is so funny, truly new player overwatch gameplay is cool to see. You seem like the kind of person who learns quickly, so i’d bet if you keep playing this game will become significantly less chaotic soon. Good luck (underrated channel btw)
thank you! :D
"I'm just gonna stand still and shoot" is maybe the most valorant take in this video :D
I know the overwatch is a bit overwhelming and confusing for beginners, but you did great ! The game could do a bit more to introduce the difference game modes or roles, but at the same time it let the player discover all of that. Biggest downside is the other players blaming each other, unfortunatly. Cool you had fun while playing it !
haha thank u! :D unfortunately even while standing still aiming is a nightmare cause everyone else still moves like an f1 car😭
there are Ways, but there hidden like the Play against Bots. but no one wants to do that anyway in a Comp Game.
I was away from ow for like 2 years and it took me a while to understand the robot and new flashpoint/capture point maps lol
It's nice to see new players. The game revolves around game sense and positioning and not only mechanical skill. Please don't listen to music because foot steps and sound queues are actually very important. :(
1)You can tell when someone is about to ult, counter ult, block or cancel their ult. Block Rein ult or JQ ult 2)Tell when a hero is on cool down and what ability they used. Tracer blink, Reaper wraith, Kiri using Suzu/TP etc. 3) Tell what hero is around the corner based on their foot steps. Such as listening to Hog's heavy foot steps, or Cassidy's spurs etc. 4) You can even turn on sound queues for when your teammates die.
I often wonder how people not notice the foot steps of a hero flanking for the seventh time or someone stomping on high ground and then I remember that they're probably listening to music lol
LMAO thanks😭
@@kitastrophe0 Also yea, you were playing two game modes in one with the King's Row map. Some maps are hybrid mode maps, where you defend a point or stop a payload if the enemy manages to capture the point.
This was genuinely so delightful to watch haha, I’ve been playing ow since middle school and it’s honestly such a fun game for its chaos! There was just something so refreshing about watching you get introduced to the game, exploring it, giving it a chance and enjoying the good aspects of it :D All everyone does in the ow community is complain and sh*t talk all the bads 24/7 so it does weigh down on the casual players :(
Hope to see you play it more, it requires a lot of earning but once you get the hang of it, you’d enjoy it for what it is. Absolutely loved your vibes
thank youuu! 🫶
the current overwatch 2 requires a large knowledgebase of hero names, their skills, and what dialogue they shout when using abilitys and especially ults. The more you build this knowledgebase, the easier and more fun matches become and you won't be so confused. It's really a great chill game if you dont take it too seriously
just a tip since you mentioned at the beginning voice comms dont seem important. voice comms are super needed in games if you want to boost your winrate. important comms involve telling people what cooldowns have been used and the enemy cant use at the moment. for example, kiri's suzu is often called out or her tp which is usually "kiri no tp or suzu". it applies to most characters in the game. there's ult tracking which is gauging who might or might not have ult and comming that so you can play more defensively or offensively depending on what ults you have and what they may or may not have. also if an enemy is low you normally go "heronamehere one" in case someone else can secure the kill for you when you cant. there's other stuff too but those are the most useful ones. the game is A LOT at first but once you learn it and play it, it doesnt seem nearly as chaotic most matches (notice i clarify "most" bc there are some games where i genuinely stare at my screen baffled)
thanks man! :D
Just for your information, because a lot of heroes are pretty complicated: you can press the F1 key while playing a hero to read about what that hero's abilities do exactly. It's just a short description, but it'll get you an idea of what to do with them. As for Mercy: right click is a damage boost on your team mates, left click is a heal beam and you can scroll to swap to your blaster and shoot enemies so you're not completely defenseless.
Edit: I just noticed you did use that later in the video. I should watch til the end to comment lmao
nah thank u haha💀😭
I'm here for this, watching someone learn Overwatch is entertaining as hell. I haven't seen it in a loooong time, I'm a 4000+ hour player there isn't many new players these days.
PLEASE GIVE ME MORE OF THIS. 10/10 recommend watching OW streamers like karq or flats, they have a lot of videos where they review other players games and give tips and just in general informative videos for the game
Each Hero in Overwatch has a unique kit, so it's important to read the hero details to know what they do. For example, Mercy is one of the very few heros that can switch weapon (mouse scroll wheel on pc). She has a small gun as a secondary weapon, and her staff is able to heal/ damage amplify allies
Hero Suggestions
--------------------------------
Support:
Mercy (noob friendly):
Mercy is both very mobile which you seem to like, and low agency which can help in building map awareness, gamesense and learning the game modes. Her playstyle is to fly between teammates and healing them/ damage amplify them. She is also the only hero with a resurrect ability
Moira (noob friendly):
Moira have a very high survivability, since she can become invisible and invulnerable using her 1st ability. Also, both her healing and her damage are easy to use, so you can have a lot of impact even with not much experience
Lúcio (fun pick):
He can ride walls horizontally, provide healing and speed boost. He can also also push an entire team off the map if you are lucky, using one ability. Gamestyle be like WEEEEEEEEE the entire game
Baptiste (shooter like):
Baptiste is probably the support that resembles a shooter the most. He shoots damage with his gun and launches healing grenages for his team. He also has an immortality ability, preventing allies from reaching 0 hp. Can jump very high after crouching
--------------------------------
Damage:
Junkrat (noob friendly):
Junkrat is an insane criminal who is obssesed with explosions, and his kit is delivers this theme perfectly.
His primary fire is a grenade launcher, with bombes that are able to bounce off walls. Meaning, you can dish out damage even behind covers.
He has a landmine ability which allows him to launch himself or enemies in the air, maki g him very mobile and somewhat unpredictable. He has a passive that leaves a bunch of bombs behind when he dies, providing him value even when he dies
Reaper (noob friendly):
Has a ghost like ability which makes him invulnerable, and and an ability that allows him to teleport in his line of sight. He is a short range fighter with two big fat guns and a lifesteal passive. Great survivability, fun to play. Good vs many of the tanks, and in sneaking into the backlines of the enemy team
Mei (survivability):
Mei has a relatively high base health for the damage role, making her a bit more biffy. It is important, since she comes in clows and sprays you with a cold air or something, slowing you down. Her abilities are placing a huge wall, and to cover herself with ice. When in ice, she is invulnerable, and heals over time. Her ult is an AoE freeze ability
Widowmaker (sniper):
She is THE sniper of Overwatch. If you like this kind of playstyle try her out. Has a hook ability which allows her to launch herself in the air and change locations
Genji and Hanzo (weeb trap):
Two japanese ninja brothers. Genji is a cyborg with shurikens and a huge sword.
Hanzo is an archers.
Both habe dragon themed ultimate.
Can climb walls
Genji can double jump.
Childhood friends of Kiriko
Soldier 76 (shooter like):
Soldier 76, as you saw, is the most shooter-like hero in the game, making him a great intro hero for people who come from other shooter games. Basic and reliable
--------------------------------
Tank:
Is a sense, tanks are the center of the team in overwatch. They don't necessarily do the most, but the team comp in mostly built around them. Tanks require more macro plays than the rest, so they are probably more difficult for beginners than Damage and Support.
If you plan on playing OW, and you don't like tanks, give them a try again after you become more familiar with the game
Reinhardt (noob friendly):
Big german grandpa with big fat shield. Has a huge hammer as his weapen. Shields in Overwatch (actual term is barrier but whatever) recharge slower if they break, so keep that in mind. One of the most reliable tanks in the game, giving great cover for immobile heroes. As long as you don't take the bait of charging in too often, should be relatively easy to play and win with. Ult is AoE stun in front of him
D.Va (noob friendly):
One of the more mobile heros in Overwatch. She is a gamer girl in a mecha, with a flight ability and guns and missile. Her ult converts her mecha into a bomb, which she can launch into the enemy team using her flight ability. It one shots almost anything in the game. Her defense ability swallows all projectiles that passes through it. Making some heros completely useless against it. Even though she is kind of hard to be good at, she is extremely fun and therefore a good intorduction to tanks in general
Zarya (versatility):
Zarya kit revolves around her defensive ability. Her bubbles shield either herself or an ally, and any damage the bubble takes converted to amplifying the damage of her own weapon. When fully charge, Zarya is a real threat to any champion in the game, while when the charge is at 0 she barely does anything. Her ultimate is a black hole that sucks in nearby enemies and holds them all in one place. Her weapon can either use a beam for one-target close-range damage or launch bombs for AoE long range damage. Even though she is relatively immobile, she can bubble allies from a long range, enabling risky plays and deep dive of allies possible. If the damage output of the enemies is too high though, they can break her bubbles and make her and her team defenseless, so keep that in mind
Wrecking Ball (mobility):
A hamster inside a wrecking ball. Moves and swings around, smashes to the ground, etc. Playstyle be like VROOOOOMMMM. Probably most mobile hero in the game
THANK U SO MUCH😭 yeah I definitely understand most of them better now so it’s not gonna be as painful haha
this was so funny to watch 😂 i love how all your references were from valo and it just shows how different the 2 games are
We need to see more of this!! As an Overwatch player my self for 7 years now I love to see this❤️
So many funny comments while you were playing: “What would you even comm, ‘I need healing’?”, “Kiriko takes no brainpower”, “footsteps aren’t important”.
As others have already said, Overwatch can be a very high level strategy game that requires a lot of game-sense and calling out ultimate usage and cooldowns as well as who to focus down on the enemy team can become incredibly important. At higher levels footsteps are also super important to hear because there will be good flankers who will try to assassinate you especially if you play support. Kiriko is one of the higher skill ceiling heroes in the game but that relies mostly on deep game knowledge of when and how to use her abilities based on which other heroes are in the match and which abilities have or have not been used by other players. The cool thing about Overwatch, though, is that there are heroes with a fairly low skill floor where you can have an impact without having to know too much and they can simultaneously also have a really high skill ceiling where you can be rewarded for very skillful and intelligent play!
Glad you were able to enjoy it, though, even if it feels incredibly chaotic at first! And I think your reaction to playing Tank is very natural. Tank is probably the most difficult role to play in Overwatch 2 because so much rests on your shoulders and often one mistake from the Tank will cost a team their team fight. I’ve been playing since the beta for OW1 and I love how impactful I can feel playing Tank, but it can definitely be overwhelming for someone who isn’t deeply familiar with all the heroes and what they do.
This was so cute, I'm glad you had fun!
thank u!🫶 ALSO NO WAY I’m gonna be the most well behaved person ow has ever seen so I get matched with nice people😭
Wait I actually didn't know that, whattt? I'm gonna start saying gg a lot more then 😭
The clicking on automatic weapons was killing me😂😂
I DON‘T WANNA TALK ABOUT IT😭✋
Seeing the joy of first experiencing this game and its characters... man, I was smiling throughout the whole video.
Also seeing you discover you could break things in spawn, one of the greatest joys lmao.
11:28 This was adorable lmao
Would LOVE to see you play more Overwatch, I've played since its open beta and watching new players is always fun.
ty!
@@kitastrophe0 Yay!
One thing I will say to you, because people get caught in this loop and never get out is that "Counters do NOT exist". There is this myth that people believe 1 hero can beat another just based on their kit/abilities. When in reality all you need is to just understand the fundamentals. Which vary from role to role. With Support, you heal your teamates when they NEED healing; and when they are good on health, you go and do damage. With Damage role heros, you take aggressive angles adjacent from your team and utilize the hero's kit. The more damage you do, the more likely you are to win and get kills. With Tank, taking space and keeping that space from the tank is the way to go. As tank, taking space is very good. If your DPS want to take an angle so that they can perform better, then it is your job as Tank to keep that space occupied for your DPS.
It is a lot and you are will learn a lot. Self reflection, improving yourself is the main way to get good in this game of Overwatch. Play to your heros strength and adapt to how your abilities interact with your enemies and teamates. Goodluck.
thank u! ^^

as a top 500 overwatch player since beta. this actually disturbed me. But im all for it. seeing someone play the game for the first time in 2024 makes me realize how chaotic the game truly is to a new player. Amazing.
it disturbed me too watching it back dw😭✋
"what do you even comm it's so chaotic?"
*the voice comms:* ana ana ana ana, soldier soldier soldier 1
80% of it is fr just: „ana low ana one“ 😭
This was really wholesome, wow- really brought me back
And yeah, the toxicity in this game is awful most of the time. It’s really discouraging for new players. I don’t get why people insist on doing things that are only gonna hurt the lifespan of their game.
12:50 resumed this game. Imagine how I feel after 8 years
ow players definitely give you a warm welcome😊 (I need therapy after playing)
Overwatch becomes a lot easier once you get to know the characters. Not knowing how a character like Zarya or Symmetra works makes them very hard to play against. Some characters can really change the entire playstyle of a team. Some characters can truly hold an entire composition together (often when tanks or supports are really good). The game looks pretty simple but you actually need to know quite a lot. Once you know what every hero does, you're golden. I actually ssuggest playing a bit with random heroes at first. Also, Roadhog has the most pristine body known to man, sculpted like a god and I am ashamed to even lay eyes upon his glorious buzzoms.
I just called the police on you for that last sentence 🫶
The burst firing Tracer, Soldier, and Zarya had me dying.
Had to subscribe.

This is the most wholesome overwatch video in years. Even the little things like discovering that you can break stuff in the spawn rooms was so wholesome

@@MixedFreight I might need therapy after playing ranked..🧿👄🧿
@@kitastrophe0 you'll get used to it...eventually. Only took me 8 years :D
Kit, basically mercy guide as I have like 100 hours on her not that long but yeah yeah
Mercy: The staff that had two toggles you could say yellow is healing and blue is a damage boost. Mercy has a gun (glock) that doesn’t have a set amount of damage but a percentage of their health ex. Mercy vs Mauga (the guy with two mini guns and also a tank) mercy would’ve won like 2 months ago but blizzard patched it sadly. I play controller so this is gonna be complicated but I’m gonna try: RB or the control button you see when facing a teammate is to basically fly to them if you press crouch you go up way more but going straight and aiming is called slingshotting (the nickname.) LT I don’t know what you have this saved as but in the bottom right of your screen you’ll see your abilities and the one with a wing and a plus button (+) is resurrect a teammate. Your ult literally lets you fly.
And widow is quite easy if you can aim. The grapple hook lets you grapple to the place your aiming at (this is limited) and AIM in like not looking AIMING I don’t know what you have this saved as once again but you’ll find out if you even read this and play it again. She’s a sniper you can aim in but she has damage fall off where after a certain distance your damage lowers I think it’s 60 meters but patch this blizzard I don’t like horse. Venom mine is practically useless but you place it down and it’s one of your abilities it does 75 dmg and lets you see them through walls for a very limited amount of time. Her ultimate is wallhacks..? Pretty useless if they aren’t all standing still tbh.
This is the first video I’ve ever watched on your channel but so far I’m having a great time ❤️!!! Keep up the good content!
THANKS FOR THE GUIDE!😭🫶
watching you play the game for the first time makes me very happy to see. it was really funny when you didn't know the hero's you were playing against like shooting reaper in his little ghostly form i wheezed. despite the toxic things that people say in chat i do hope you have fun playing this silly game.
we do not talk about me trying to shoot the reaper, it never happened😭🤫
love watching ppl's first time on ow, very wholesome watching ppl learn and how they think etc
The burst firing.... I can't.... so cute!
Feathering Zarya's Beam is HILARIOUS hahahahaha
I love that today's new Overwatch player experience is Suzu-ing the enemy, back in the day we'd shoot at our teammates as Lucio since we didn't understand the healing aura concept 🙃
I thought so too about lucio at first haha😭
Love the vid i hope you still upload more overwatch on the channel. Here are a few basic tips that i think are usefull :)
For playing DPS
-pay atention to your positioning and stay on your healers sigh, if you are flanking or looking for offangles, don't be risky and go back to your team when you feel i'm danger, stay alive is more importante than get the kill (most of the time, but there are exceptions)
-Try all heroes and learn their abilities, think if the enemy has their cooldowns before engaging on a duel or assasinstion.
For playing Support:
-Dont die trying to save somebody, as the most powerful role on the Game, you are the most importante to stay alive.
-Dont use your ult immediately if the other support has used it first, is generally better to combo with a dps or your tank.
-Try not stay alone never and stay with your team to heal them and so they protect you from flanking heroes.
For playing Tank:
-To start an atack, don't go by your own because your are gonna die, make sure that your team is following your lead or else, make sure to have a clear route to scape, you are always gonna need to scape.
-Pay attention to when you should engage or move back, this you learn by playing and dying a lot.
-To use your ult, make clear your intentions to your team on quick or voice chat so they know and that way you can combo with them. Aldo check if their ult is ready.
Everything else you learn by playing and with time. I'm no expert but these tips have helped me and here they are. Finally and most important, have fun playing ❤️
thank u so much! ^-^
I absolutely loved this 😭 watching first time players encounter the CHAOS of overwatch especially a Valorant player is SO FUNNY. It’s so fast paced and team oriented so it’s really fun to see I hope you continue playing and have fun despite the toxic people 💀
This is why I’m so privileged I had OW veterans (one being one of the best in my country at one point) babysitting me and teaching me… I’d probably have a mental breakdown trying to figure all this out on my own!!
She goes with kiriko because how easy is to get kills and teleport away
Spoken like a true kiriko main
it’s destined to be🫡
"i feel like noone is healing me" quick tip, supports usually don't heal you unless ur infront of them or where the main fight is, so try to stay with ur support unless ur confident. they also tend to focus on healing tank, especially in worse lobbies they don't heal their other teammates as much
ALSO, stop trying to shoot like its a sniper on all heroes 😭 most you can hold down the shoot button, so you're continuously shooting.
@@Chester3585I KNOWWW i’m so used to valorant one taps so my muscle memory won’t let me spam😭💀
The burst fire was soooo cute 😭 love your voice and energy, you're adorable!
thank u!🫶😭
as an overwatch player since 2018, this was so painful i loved it
you‘re welcome😭
As someone who has played this game way too much, its always such a joy seeing new people try this game and go through all the chaos and try to figure out what's happening.
i got really into overwatch in 2020 but stopped playing when ow2 came out & sold my xbox. i just recently downloaded ow2 on my laptop & started playing again just because i miss it. this video was very fun to watch as someone who understands 70% of whats going on but all the new characters & their abilities are a mystery to me.
Your reaction every time you got attacked by Reinhardt on route 66 had me dying. Just turn around and scream as you got clobbered with his hammer lol. Very appropriate reaction tbh
I have a passionate hate for reinhardt (unless he’s on my team ofc✋)
@kitastrophe0 lol he's intimidating for sure. I'm a wrecking ball main and I can't wait until you run into him
As someone that plays both games (Valorant was my first fps and online game ever) I have to say that sometimes just reading the abilities can be helpful but I would suggest trying the vs AI mode for characters that you don't feel comfortable using in a real match, that way you can see at least how some abilities interact with your team and your enemies without the pressure of people been mean to you, cause people are really toxic specially in qp which is so weird but you know, people are going to try hard I guess.
Characters that I recommend: for support I would say that Juno is a pretty begginer friendly character, the only difficult thing to use at first would be the ult but you can get the hand of it in a few matches, another good candidate if you want to do good damage and healing would be Baptiste, his shooting is similar to the Vandal or Bulldog I guess and his healing while it can be a bit weird at the beginning you get used to it and his abilities are easy to use but do require good timing.
DPS: If you want something simple then you are fine with Soldier and Sojourn, Ashe is also a good choice that rewards good aim and her kit is pretty straight forward, Torbjorn is like Killjoy but his turret last until is destroyed and doesn't have activation range lol
Tank: This role is difficult to recommend characters honestly, but I guess that characters like Sigma and Ramattra can be easier options in comparison to the rest of the tanks ( Reinhard is also easy cause you only need to swing a big hammer around but he is a close combat heroe so maybe not a good option for the start)
thank you! :D
Genuinely one of the most entertaining and also enlightening videos I've seen on OW
Like I've played this game long enough that I can just instantly grasp what's on the screen and had totally forgot what it was like for a new player.
Absolutely fantastic vid, lol I'm glad this popped up in my feed, great stuff and hope ya have a happy new year.

tip: theres no recoil in overwatch and you can hold the primary fire untill it reloads (dont need to click. just hold)
BTW, if you hold F1 on the hero select screen, it'll give you a pop-up with all of your ability names and what they do!
The "I have no idea what I am doing" playing Juno is actually the funnoest shit I have heard today 😂
As an overwatch player, watching you play like this remindes me of when I first started a couple years ago. It is so adorable and it is really fun to watch you play ☺️. If we ever run into each other in a game I will definetly be friendly and probably emote to you. I always like to say hello to the Enemy Team. Lot of OW Players say the toxic people went to Marvel Rivals btw. So I hope you have a great gaming experience and meet a bunch of nice people on there.

Hello, at 5:32 i can assure you voice chat is really needed in overwatch competitive, it's all about team decisions, so you gotta be coordinated with your teamates
sadly low one talks in low elo😔✋
This was such a wholesome watch. I've been playing since OW release so it was so nice seeing OW from the eyes of a new player again. Subscribed - I can't wait to see more!
thank u!🥹🫶
Seeing this game from the perspective of another person made me realize how chaotic it truly is.
I'm also a valorant player that started with overwatch recently. It sure is an experience
"This is like for people with ADHD" had me dying of laughter
I love how you try it as new one, as someone who got over 3000h in this game
Wow I’ve been playing (not regularly) Overwatch since like 2018 and I didn’t realize it’s so hard to figure out until watching this. To me it’s so simple now
A cool tip about Kiriko is if you can shoot and punch at the same time. So if you’re near an enemy shoot punch them to do more damage.
You can also survive lethal ults if you perfectly time when you throw that healing ball(I forgot what it’s called) toward the ground at yourself(It also heals you)
Kiriko’s ult is also amazing when paired with certain characters. Like Genji, soldier, or Moira. Use it if you hear them use their ult but perfectly place it.
omg it’s so refreshing to see the perespective of new OW players and seeing you have fun with it fills my heart!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND WATCHING THE HERO VIDEOS ON YT - will help with getting to know the heros and their abilities
you will also like Baptiste & Juno (healer) since they have burst fire
Diamond Kiriko main here!! You actually unintentionally did what good kirikos should do lol.. she does insane damage (with the bonus dmg on critical hits) and people should take advantage of that.
Her teleportation ability allows for you to flank on the enemy team, two-tap a low health character in the head, and then get back to your team with barely a scratch. Her other ability, suzu, is one of, if not the best ability in the game. It cleanses any negative effect and gives brief immunity plus healing, allowing for you to cancel a lottt of ultimates if you time it right. In regards to Kiriko ultimate, you should use it offensively most of the time as a fight initiator. Try to coordinate with your team to prepare to rush in and delete the enemy team. It gives faster movement, faster firing, faster reload, and less cooldown time on abilities (it's a CRACKED ultimate) Can easily win fights if the enemy team doesn't retaliate with a crazy amount of ults. Kiriko is sooo fun with her different playstyles (flanking and doing lots of damage and escaping easily and repeating, OR focusing on healing-which she can do a lottt of, and making game-changing saves to your team with suzu) and she works well in, dare I say, every single team composition. All this info is if you really wanna take overwatch seriously and grind comp games to win! Just remember to have fun!!
thank u! :D
There is no bonus anymore to crits it's just the normal multiplyer
I come accross players like this on my team. I always get stressed out but trying to chill if their endorsement is low. Which means theyre probably new.
understandable haha😭✋
Damn this is just funny and cute. From a diamond player perspective its cute for me to see someone play overwatch for the fun of it
This was fan-f**king-tastic to watch. I've been playing OW on and off since 2017 and when OW2 dropped my 5 year old son saw me playing and asked me to teach him. Brooooooo let me tell you, this was more or less his exact sentiments while learning the game. Now he's 7 and about to be plat in all roles. I need more of your journey
haha thank you! :D
This was a really funny video, the moment u started to shoot in bursts make me laugh so hard lmaooo (specially zarya💀😂)
Ive been playin OW since 2017 is crazy to see some1 completely new to the game, hope u like it, at first is so chaotic and dynamic that u dont even know what u r doin but when u start to understanding it, OW has something special that any other FPS hasn't and catches u really hard, is so addictive.
Also dont worry bout the people, in the quick plays of this game u can find people even more tryhard than in ranked (yes it is crazy and doesnt have any sense) so its completely normal, just mute and avoid, so u dont get matched with them again.
Great vid
thank u! :D
It definitely helps when you already have friends who know how the game works and you hop into quick play with them and can just ask them questions quickly
>looks up and shoots at Pharah
Well, you're already better than most players in this game. Jokes aside, you did really well for your first time.
Overwatch is a very complex game that takes hundreds of hours to comprehend. Take your time and don't feel pressured to perform perfectly.
As for the different roles:
The job of the Tank is to initiate fights as well as take and control space. A big difference from Valorant is that they do this with their bodies and positioning instead of for example smokes.
The job of the Damage is to frag. That's it.
The job of the Support is to not die. After you've made sure that you are not dead, try to make teammates not die as well.
As a person who knows nothing about Val, this was very entertaining to watch. You’ll kind of pick it up as you go. For your first game with kirko you were killing it 😊

Lmaoo this reminded me of the time when I started playing ow, it was so overwhelming especially after Val but I started to really like it especially because it is so chaotic and now I tried out marvel rivals and its somehow even more chaotic
i come back to this video again and i still love it the 2nd watch. This is my favorite overwatch newcomer video
aww thank u😭🫶
Tips: tracer is the hardest hero its better to leave her until you get better
- heroes categories in these 3 ( brawl, poke, dive) brawl = slow moving and constant dmg , poke = take angels and shoot until they die , dive = jumping on the enemies. Each one counters the other most of the time, brawl > dive , dive > poke, poke > brawl. But its always ends up to what the meta is and how good you play, these give u some advantages here and there and every meta is based on one of them 3
-Use the map to your advantage. Like, soldier used his ult ? Np ima hide behind the wall
I just discovered your channel through this video and I'm staying for the commentary & gameplay the soldier ult in front of the genji took me out LOL XD
YOU DEFINITELY DIDN‘T SEE THAT!😭✋
@@kitastrophe0 the entire video was really funny and entertaining 😭 hope to see more ow2 content too !!
I usually don't watch overwatch videos, I just play it but let me say that THIS WAS SO FUN TO WATCH and you're such a good entertainer and everything looks so cute and enjoyable in your channel (and, most importantly, NOT TOXIC) , I just discovered it and I will subscribe for sure :3
aww tysm!🥹🫶
Ah! Can’t wait for you to experience the Tatiana Effect 😇
THE WHAT NOW??😭
Support is definitely the most forgiving role, but don't get locked into playing it because of that. There is a lot of fun to be had on dps and even tank. It'll just take a bit more time to get there.
If you keep playing, tracer is one of the most challenging and rewarding heroes in the game. Don't feel bad for feeling lost on her, but learning her kit is absolutely worth it. Some other good heroes to know are Ashe, Cassidy, Sojourn, Mei (you will be hated).
Definitely check out Ana if/when you unlock her in the support role. She is one of the more mechanically demanding supports and she can have crazy amounts of impact on games with her abilities. She is my main.
Some tanks to try would be Junker Queen, Zarya, wrecking ball and maybe even doomfist. I find them to be the most. engaging.
It's an interesting time to be a new player in Overwatch. The community is at odds eith each other over 5 or 6 player teams. The 6v6 play test is still active (as of yesterday) and you should definitely give it a go just to see what you enjoy.
Personally, I first played overwatch right after the switch to 5v5. I've played consistently for the last 2 years and never had major complaints with the format, BUT I've thoroughly enjoyed the 6v6 format.
This is honestly so wholesome 😂 you will learn with time just have fun with it!
thank u! ^-^
Sniper Tracer and everything you did on Zarya were my favorite parts of the video, there's something so special about seeing someone new genuinely having fun with the game (you kinda ate with Kiriko, you just had to learn that Suzu is a defensive ability not offensive heeelp)
And one more thing: I don't like playing while I'm listening to music when it gets in the way of hearing and reacting to enemy ults, I don't think anybody should do this but maybe other people don't get as distracted as I do
thank u! :D
Overwatch has a lot of haters who just follow the herd but for me it’s still one of the best games out there.
Kings Row and Blizzard World are hybrid maps where the first objective is to capture/defend the point. If the attacking team successfully captures, then the payload comes out of the wall by the capture area and have to escort it across the map with the arrows indicating the direction on the floor.
Route 66 is just a payload map as the payload is right in front of the attacking team’s spawn. There are checkpoints for payload based maps that have to be reached in order for the attacking team to not immediately lose once time runs out.
I loved your video. Very much the first time experience. Btw, Mercy heals or damage boosts your teammates. Try using her ability on the friendly bots that are getting shot at in the practice range and not the enemy bots. Enemy bots are highlighted red, friendly bots are highlighted blue. I recommend pressing F1 for hero details and playing with friends who do know how to play for more fun!
Peak. Thank you for the overwatch recognition
As some one who plays Overwatch since 2017, this was adorable.
A cool tip about Kiriko is you can shoot and punch at the same time. So if you’re near an enemy shoot punch them to do more damage.
You can also survive lethal ults if you perfectly time when you throw that healing ball(I forgot what it’s called) toward the ground at yourself(It also heals you) although it is hard to do so try your best to not get put in that position.
Kiriko’s ult is also amazing when paired with certain characters. Like Genji, soldier, or Moira. Use it if you hear them use their ult but perfectly place it.
