Thanks to Youtuber kandyrew for this one, as he's been hard at work plumbing the depths of Blizzard's latest baby, too.

As such, he realised that many heroes' secondary abilities will actually directly affect specific others - almost like a 'rock, paper, scissors' setup.

Symmetra's charged orb will pass straight through Reinhardt and Winston's protective shields, Mei's pistol won't get deflected by Genji's sword, and - best of all - Roadhog's chain can actually grab Bastion out of his turret stance, yanking him across the map.

The latter especially has gotten the best of almost everyone at some point, so it's brilliant to know it can be stopped.

Let us know in the comments what other secrets and tips you've found that weren't covered by the base game!
