Overwatch: 5 Things You Need To Know About Ashe

5. She’s A DPS Hero With Variety

Elizabeth Caledonia ‘Calamity’ Ashe, to give her her full name, is a DPS hero that brings a lot of variety with her. In brief, a DPS hero is one who deals Damage Per Second, and typically suits single minded players. Those more focused on the team aspect might be a tank who soaks up bullets for their squad, while healers typically play defensively and restore their team’s health. But if you just want to get out there and kill things, a DPS hero is the one for you.

Ashe has a few tricks up her sleeves to help her best dish out this damage per second too. She comes equipped with a quick firing rifle, Viper, and is shown aiming down the crosshairs for a more precision shot. Also in her holsters is the Coach gun, a powerful short range shotgun with a kickback so strong it propels her backwards to safety.

Finally, there’s the most cinematic part of her arsenal. A stick of dynamite she can lob towards her enemies. In a nod to Casino, the trailer shows the reflection glinting in her eyes as she aims Viper at the stick and boom goes the dynamite.
