The hardest part about this character is picking them before my teamate
lol😂
Penalty's all day
Yup, its always like this when a new hero comes out 😂
hardest part about this is finding the willpower to launch the dead game
@@vladrus5253 Hardest part about this is finding the willpower to turn on my computer
the symmetra rework we all wanted
Idk who "we all" are, I'm happy with current Sym, but now that this hero is here I'm happier. Maybe people can stop complaining about Sym to be a full healer now.
Not only that, Lifeweaver feels like a Sym rework too. It makes me wonder what Blizz has been doing this whole time, and why they are letting actual Sym languish.
@@zeri7835 Im an og symm player like I played her pre 1.0 rework still miss support symm
@@zeri7835 not at all lmao me and all my homies want shield gen and photon barrier back that shit was peak sym
@@Azlare9_9babe they got rid of shield gen for a reason
This hero actually looks super fun, they keep adding high skill ceiling characters though which I guess is cool for longevity's sake
I think Illari is very cool and definitely healthy for the game. Having more support is gonna make games feel so much more unique rather than constant mercy games with a kiri or ana
Yeah it’s a great hero! Unfortunately we will be playing it when brig will be deleted and I am more and more afraid this day won’t come…
she is def high ceiling. i think she is sorta kitted towards pve content as well.
Its funny when brain dead people think a broken character is based
@@genepryor2023 only a half of your sentence is right, that's good for a beginning 👍
Imagine being a goofy little zen and out of nowhere you get blasted by the sun for existing
I really appreciate you providing the numbers for her abilities, I was getting really frustrated with other videos saying her ult explosion needed “significant” damage to activate.
“We finally have a way to deal with widow on support”
My brother in Christ you’re a Lucio main
The Zenyatta volley in question:
she said that as kiriko walked into the frame which makes this even more ridiculous xD
@@justnantaI was just about to say 😂 double headshotting widow as Kiri is so easy lol
I always defualt to Ana and half the time I out snipe her. Still takes 3 shots and I get a scope
Its a least risky matchup as a support. As Lucio you have to go too deep in backline and its a big question wherther you will get out or not. Kiriko is projectile so if widow nows shes a target she ma easily avoid getting hit. Ana is rly good but doesnt have movement which makes it just a little bit riskier than Illari
I’m shocked we got no trailer for her, but not exactly surprised with how this game has been handled recently
🙄 dear God.... We get it!
We did get one tho...
overwatch doomers
@@insecticaa it's like, be for real dude. You either gotta step back from the game or refrain from copy/pasting the exact sentiment we've seen under every piece of OW2 content.
@@dboyedoethey’re allowed to criticize it as consumers just as you’re allowed to defend it
¨Hitscan kiriko doesnt exist, she cant hurt you¨ hitscan kiriko:
me coming back to overwatch for the 50th time this year after swearing I quit forever
Eskays got the best breakdowns, they make me want to be a better player
Is eskay a group or team?
@@cjch7251 yes
This hero is definitely gonna be a must pick
I just came back to this video 5 minutes and I want to thank you. With the info you give here, it helped me improve , because I finally understand the ULT and the way to charge her shot, before shooting. Thank you!!!
Once again, a thorough, thoughtful breakdown. Love your brain and vibe.
5:00 wait that melee animation is sick
Hi Eskay. I love you, be safe.
Thank you for the guide Eskay!! Cant wait to try her out when i get back from vacation. Your tutorials are always great
The movement ability also has some weird techs that make her similar to doom in terms of that aspect, especially when she can turn around the corner like the original turn slam doom used to do. GetQuakedOn pretty much explains that in pretty good detail and that some of this newfound tech is so helpful
Loving illari. Was able to figure most of this out playing her but it did take me a day or two to catch on to things like not dumping all the heals so it recharges faster. Great guide GREAT hero!
funnily enough the most valuable info i got from this video is to stop jumping around because it makes me easier to hit.
Thank you for highlighting the toes. Really makes me excited for this character
please keep making the mspaint drawings with these i cackled when i saw this one 😭
The voice change in the video shows how dedicated Eskay is in teaching us
Girl this character JUST came out, how tf have you already mastered it?
yooo ain't no way this vid popped up on my "home page" after watching one of your ticktoks on my "for you" page. content is amazing can't wait to watch more video's
Ty for the guide Eskay, teally appreciated your tips on high pylon placement!
Have a great day :D
omfg thank youuu the first content creator Ive heard pronounce her name right! thats why eskay is the best
This was an extremely helpful video. Thanks for the upload!:)
5:25
Kiriko who can 2 tap widow from any range: 😗
Her kunais have travel distance though
@@SifGreyfang sure, but that would need kiriko to be 3000 meters away. There is no scenario where “travel distance” needs to be considered, when no map calls that into question and since widow also has a fall off
This has been my main healer and had no idea you could charge the primary fire. Thank you
5:19 "we finally have a way to deal with widowmaker on support"
Zenyatta & Kiriko: "I'm a joke to you?"
Everyone tries to get Illari asap at hero select but it’s sooo nice playing with my duo partner. We both pick support and just take turns. Whoever goes first with Illari the other plays Moira and then the next match it reverses and repeats. We both main both Moira and Illari for support so it’s a perfect matchup. I just hope they don’t nerf Illari too much before she’s available for ranked
I love this character, she’s so fun to play 😊
First lmao loving the educational content eskay ❤
she even got to pronounce the name right. Good one 👌👌
Hey Eskay. First thing first. I love your content and learn so much about the game thru it. With that said, from one female gamer to another. I see you. Those that see you are the only ones that matter. If you hadn’t said it, I’d never known your situation. Which is always an amazing feeling on your end. Amazing girl gamer with such inspiration. Thank you.
Great stuff Eskay! Thanks for the guide!
Nice to have talks of wasd aiming in OW. 😳
I've felt that it was essential in more grounded shooters, but have seen less talk or use of it in OW due to easy access to verticality and wide difference between target shapes.
Excellent guide. Straight and to the point. Much appreciated :)
She's like Symm as a healer, with Ashe's primary and Zarya's ult; I love her.
Thanks for the video! I’m having such a good time playing Illari. ❤
BEST GUIDE
Best metro
To add on to what you were saying about hero interactions I think a good habit to have when playing illari would be to not look at where you’re going when using your shift (if you’re aware of where you are). Since the knock back only happens from the front it’s better to use your shift backwards to push the enemy back while also giving yourself some space. For example at 7:00 if you were to time your shift right before the Winston slam you’d be able to push him back in the air while also getting away and avoiding some damage. Easier said than done tho,illari is gonna be fun against Winston!
im pretty sure the kncokback applies in a sphere no?
Hey, her knockback is a full sphere
Kiriko is the bane of my existence when I play her.
Great, informative guide Eskay!!!
you just need god like aim and this hero can thrive.
Illari ult is imo the fastest charging ult ive seen, there have been times where i have managed to pop it off 4-5 times per game
"We finally have a support to deal with widow"
Kiriko and Zen: Am I a joke to you?
It makes so much sense that her ult goes through shields, she's shooting light
The brain graphic represents being good at tank so well
bro dropped this quick quick
great video! didn't even to think to use the pylon as a shield!
"we finally have a support that can deal with widow"
Kiriko: "Am I a joke to you?" *spams kuni*
"we finally have a way to counter widow as a support"
Ana: "am I a joke to you?"
As a dps main: I never had this much fun with a support character!
"Finally a way for a way to deal with Widowmaker on Support."
Frogger: ....
She’s such a cool character, I can’t believe we got nothing until the day of release relating to info 😭
To be fair during OW1 we also didnt´get information about the hero which was introduced at Blizzcon right? Therefore the surprise who it´s going to be was bigger. But I also get that if we would have gotten some gameplay-trailer plus the origin-story before the launch of this season they may could have hyped her up more.
You forgot zenyatta’s ult also doesn’t charge fast. He needs 2300~ ult points. He’s in the top 3 of highest ult requirements
Ult points is a load of garbage, zen ult charges fast in game
I love this guide thank you so much miss amazing voice player legend of sun skills :)
Just unlocked illari and the shadow child skin for her I can’t wait to play as her
I love your voice. U are so chill its actually soothing.
Here is the movement break down for better understanding of her Shift which is the reason I fall in love:
Tap Shift +WASD movement NO SPACE-> Basically if you want to move fast in 1 direction, this give you the fastest movement. Also you can HOLD SPACE AFTER you do the above for Bhopping. Thanks Get quaked on for tips
SPACE+SHIFT+WASD-> This grant you moderate height, if you want to get on some small platform while also benefit from moving movement thanks to shift boost
SPACE+ Hold Shift + WASD IN BETWEEN -> To get the highest height, you want to hold shift after you press space. But you don't want to PRESS WASD when you press Shift. You want to SPACE+HOLD SHIFT then after you Shift, you can press WASD movement-> this will give you highest height +moving to direction of the platform you want
favorit support hero, perfect balance between support and dps
I am glad I found this guide, I love playing her haha. She's so fun. (Also I love taking pharahs out of the sky as her)
Thank you so much for that great guide ❤
Nice guide and very well explained with a lot of useful details. When would you use F to destroy the pylon?
I love you eskay!!! ♥️
You can change her pylon to deploy and destroy to the same button
Thanks for this! ❤
illari w ram poke n prod gonna nasty
Blizz designer: Look the new dps I made for the game.
Blizz Dev: We need more suport.
Blizz designer: But...she have a healing toten...like what we did to do with Sym...?
Blizz Dev: Ok, approved.
Played 5 games with her and lost all of them. It's weird cuz I had same damage as my dps, and most healing in the lobby. Def need to see what exactly I could be doing wrong.
Same
Damage=/=elims which is always more important, but sometimes there are those games that one misplay or one really good play make or break.
What are you aiming for? if youre just shooting tank or dps its not going to do much. Kill the supports and you win the fight
What i've found with Illari is that she has very nice looking stats, but that doesn't necessarily always correlate to an amazing game. With pylon you get a tonne of healing, but a lot of that will be from poke healing, which is good, but not as game changing as saving someone from death, for example.
im a gm5 hitscan(widowmaker) player so im very capable of not just doing poke but actually getting kills without ult @@henrikfitch4017
eslay vid dropped
Nice guide, realy like it, thx
If the pylon takes damage you can heal it with your beam as well.
Really? I guess this only works for her turret because it also uses sun-power?
@@93Chowodude no this has never been a thing they’re trolling
@@93Chowo can't believe you fell for that 😂😂
Heres a tip I found. On New Junk City 9:29 (The timestamp is so you know what im talking about, and if you already knew this/do this, then disregard this comment) The little circle above you, on the point you were fighting on, I put my pylon there, and it was really broken XD I got like 7 saves cause it kept healing my team XD
"we finally have a way to deal with widow on support"
I tend to just zen volley her in the face, but picking zen purely to try to counter widow leads only to pain
Finally someone who says her name right.
Thank you for saying her name correctly ❤
I’ve worked with targeting at Widow with the same technique and it works like magic🤭
ESKAY I LOVE YOU
"The Pylon is the most important part of your kit, without your pylon you are nothing." Most ppl that play dps are forgetting she is a support and I see a lot of people taking the flank not using her pylon or not deploying it at all until they take damage (They then place it into the most obvious spot and it gets destroyed} of course they die.
illari's R status effect can also be cleansed by Sombra E(Translocator).
Great video thanks ✨
Omw to twitch! Ty Eskay!
Also they should put a little circle around the Healing drone cause it’s range is massive
I was rolling my eyes when they said they were gonna add another support with this season since they just dropped Lifeweaver not too long ago and he was just trash for a good while, but Illari honestly shakes the support role up in a good way. We didn't really have a support who could actually do pretty good damage before, I really appreciate finally having one that can bounce between offensive and supportive play styles on the fly. I'm going to assume they're going to nerf her pretty quickly though, I've already seen a bunch of insane gameplay as her.
zenyatta?
today someone told me my illani is bad... but i was winning the whole day and i think we even won that match... but for some reason it hurt me... especially bc i thought that i was actually rlly good at her for how shortly she came out
but anyways this video was really helpful I'm gonna work on my jumps
if you can block high noon with a well aimed sym turret, i'm sure the pylon can do it too.
It's 105 heals per second as now.
FINALLY! someone saying her correctly
Character makes me wanna play the game again
Dealing with widow as Ana and Kiriko is very doable
Something I learnt the hard way genji can deflect it
as an ana main im 100% gonna start dumping hours into her
great guide!!!!
thats literally furia from paladins
it's also literally senna from league
Senna from League would be a more accurate comparison. She literally has nothing from Furia's kit and her weapon doesn't look even remotely similar
5:20 oh trust me I’ve dealt with her. Every time I see one I fly up there as mercy and empty a clip in her🥰
Same. Sometimes you just gotta do it yourself
The most fun support in game
you can also outheal any dps from a moira with the pylon. even if she uses a damage orb
Had this happen to me. Moria challenges me to a 1v1 I just sit there healing off pylon while Moria tries to suck me to death to no success 😂
Finally, a support Moira counter!
Genji can reflect the ult too. Genji has been my biggest problem on illari so far
