Overwatch meta1/7/2023 ![]() If a team cannot capitalize on hacked enemies, Sombra can feel incredibly useless. The issue is always communication and getting the team to follow up on the opportunities Sombra creates. Typically in high-level play, she is one of the strongest and most oppressive heroes when played correctly. Sombra is an odd mainstay in the lowest tier. Tier 4: Difficult to Have Success Within the Current Meta This meta is a perfect example of just that. More situational picks make Overwatch a healthy and interesting game. Players saw how un-fun the game became when Roadhog hopped out of his niche-situation bubble and ruined the ranked experience. Characters like Symmetra and Orisa are at their healthiest when they succeed on only few maps and in a few situations. The “situational” tier is at its largest in a long while, and that should be a good thing. This meta allows for players to play a wide variety of different heroes based on what is going on in front of them. Overwatch is a game based on the ability to swap characters to deal with a new situation. Tier 3: Good Situational Picks but Less Strong Overall ![]() Sigma may forever live just outside of the highest tier as he is still on the receiving end of tweaks since the prevalence of the Double Shield meta. Reinhardt rises from the ashes once more as Roadhog can’t burst down his shield immediately. There are plenty of heroes that can make their case for Tier 1 like Tracer and even Reaper, but overall the characters in the second tier are still powerful. Tier 2: Good Alternatives to Tier 1 and Still Viable Overallįor the first time in a long while, the top two tiers feel so very close to one another. Zarya is in an incredibly good spot currently, so players can feel comfortable leaning on the aggressive off-tank. The meta has been shifting a bit away from Winston/Zarya tank lines and back into the classic Dive tanks. Not having to worry about Roadhog every game opened the door for Winston to leap back into favor. Overall, the current meta makes players feel like their decisions matter a little but more when it comes to committing to fights and positioning. Tank players feel more involved, and DPS players feel more comfortable switching characters. Overwatch is a much different game when Dive-compositions are back in the meta. Tier 1: Optimal Heroes with High Win Rates and Synergy With each month, there will be a new tier list released to update changes in each hero’s performance from month-to-month so be sure to check back next month to see what changes lie ahead. The following tier list exists precisely to help guide players through this more dynamic meta, reflecting how individually well-kitted Overwatch’s 32 heroes are and how well they synergize with other powerful heroes. Things seem pretty good for the first time, in a really long time. There isn’t quite one tank that is dominating like Orisa or Roadhog, and damage dealers don’t have to auto-lock a sniper. Characters actually feel map dependent now. In fact, the Overwatch ranked meta is in one of its best states in recent memory. Luckily everyone is past those strange and uncertain times. ![]() Snipers were just left uncontested because no one could get to high ground. Zarya’s had to time their bubbles to protect friendly Roadhogs after they get hooked, because there wasn’t a shield to hide behind. ![]() What a crazy fever dream the past meta was huh? Roadhog just running around, terrorizing everyone.
