Overwatch: Ranking All 25 Characters From Worst To Best

14. McCree

Perhaps the most iconic character outside of Tracer, McCree's cry of "It's hiiigh noon!" became an instant meme overnight when Overwatch released. Fortunately though the hero is more than just a catchphrase, and while he's maybe not an appealing choice on the surface, McCree can be one of the strongest attacking characters when used correctly.

The revolver-twirling cowboy's primary attack is devastating when the shots land, while his ability to stun players and then unload an entire clip into their face makes him extremely effective in one-on-one face offs.

He doesn't have any passive abilities that buff the team, but when it comes to being able to dole out an immense amount of damage to enemy attackers, McCree is one of the best in the business.
