With Blink, you can ignore line-of-sight and force an up-close engagement

Baptiste
Baptiste Favorable

You can instantly destroy the Immortality Field from behind and target the main body.

Kiriko
Kiriko Favorable

Staying glued to Kiriko forces repeated use of Swift Step, and the moment she's isolated, she can be picked off.

Lifeweaver
Lifeweaver Favorable

Wu Yang
Wu Yang Favorable

Sticking close forces Wu Yang to spend Guardian Wave and Rushing Torrent on self-defense instead of supporting allies.

Tracer
Tracer Favorable

Only Tracer can keep up with Tracer's mobility. She can draw opponents into a backline showdown and protect her team's backline.

Ana
Ana Favorable

Illari
Illari Favorable

You can destroy the Healing Pylon to disrupt their healing capabilities.

Hanzo
Hanzo Favorable

The Storm Bow can't keep up with close-range Blink maneuvers.

Emre
Emre Favorable

Since the hack is interrupted when you take damage, if you get there first, you can win the firefight.

Mercy
Mercy Favorable

Stay right on the Guardian Angel's tail until it takes off, and strike the moment it becomes isolated.
