Overwatch: Ranking All 25 Characters From Worst To Best

5. Tracer

The mascot and face of Overwatch since the game dropped last year, Tracer has fallen out of favour with some players as the months have worn on.

But don't let the Dick Van Dyke cockney accent or the overly cheery attitude put you off, as Tracer is one of the most immediately satisfying characters to jump into the shoes of.

While not packing much of a punch and suffering from only having a minuscule amount of health, the hero's ability to skip around the map and attack the enemy with hit-and-run tactics can be invaluable when it comes to winning matches.

Pretty deadly when unloading a whole clip into characters at close range, Tracer is a great all-round character who excels in disorienting the enemy team and diverting their focus.

The only downside is her pretty unfulfilling ultimate, which only comes in handy in the rarest of situations.
