Overwatch came out in 2016 and its diverse cast has attracted players of all kinds. Blizzard’s team-based shooter offers everything from swinging a big hammer to taking headshots with precision.

Since then, the developers have introduced a slew of extra heroes to the cast of the game. One of the most controversial was the addition of Brigitte Lindholm. While here story felt right at home, her powerful and easy-to-pick kit didn’t go down well with many players.

The hero’s signature Support/Tank hybrid playstyle has witnessed a lot of changes. In this article, we will tell you how to play Brigitte in Overwatch. For players new to the game, there are several facets they should understand before playing the game well. Veterans will know that an individual’s performance needs learning a hero’s kit and role in combat.

Gameplay

When picking up Support/Tank hybrid, new players should know that healing is the main focus of the character. Though she has two separate ways to keep allies up, they are not as simple as other healing techniques.

The Inspire ability is the most consistent method, as it activates when hitting an enemy with the Rocket Flail. In doing so, the character can automatically heal any allies within its range. During a team fight, this ability enables her to be a contender in the battle without having to shy away to heal.

At times, players might find their teammates are pushing further ahead or out of range of Inspire’s radius. Fortunately, Repair Packs offer a solution to this common issue when playing this character in the game.

The packs don’t have a major emphasis on aim. The forgiving nature offers this hero a way to protect an ally attacking the enemy backline or heal when the ability is used. Players should keep in mind that there are only 3 charges and the cooldown time is not fast.
