But until Tracer is played competitively in professional tournaments, Xul will continue to remain king of the scene. " Watch for teams to stray away from the standard one support, one warrior, two assassin and one specialist team composition-and watch them create a stronger front line for Tracer to bounce in and out of while poking from afar with her basic attacks."įrom a competitive standpoint, Tracer will be one of the first heroes banned in the draft process as she, along with Xul, harbor the strongest one-vs-one combat abilities in the game. Where you can gain an advantage against Tracer, as she will be played heavily over the next few weeks, are heroes that have a large health pool, reliable stuns, and can engage hard, as well as have solid gap close when you are able to get in her face. Heroes that struggle to burst her down or land a proper stun are melted quickly from the battlefield as she has little trouble ripping through a Jaina, Li-Ming, Tyrael, among others. The ability's cooldown can be reduced with basic and melee attacks Tracer assaults her opponents with throughout the match.ĭue to Tracer's unique play style, abilities, and talents, she must have a drawback to prevent her from being inherently overpowered upon her release-and that comes in the form of a disappointingly low health pool and high skill gap, depending on who you ask and how recently they were harassed by a Tracer. Tracer is also the only hero in the game with one Heroic Trait, "Pulse Bomb," which is a short-ranged bomb that can be used from level one and can be manipulated with different talents to take on a variety of utility. She can teleport backwards to the position she was at three seconds ago while reloading her weapons, and also removing any and all status effects. "Recall" or her E ability allows Tracer to literally bend time, which she is famous for. Blink, in combination with her W ability "Melee," which is a glorified pistol whip, allows Tracer to smack an opponent up close for a moderate amount of damage, causing disorientation for opponents who fail to predict her next move. Her Q ability is "Blink," where Tracer can dash towards an area very quickly while storing three charges at a time, making her disengage, engage, and evade from enemies. This makes each individual attack weak-but the damage adds up quickly as she can unload on a target and move around them with ease, dodging and creating openings with the other abilities in her kit.
Tracer's basic attack speed is quite fast, as is expected coming from pistols.
You can manually reload."Ī few things to note when it comes to her trait is that Tracer does not have mana so her abilities rely on cooldowns and her basic attacks are limited based on the ammunition in her dual pistols' clip. Her trait "Reload" is described as "you can basic attack while moving, and after attacking 10 times, you need to reload over 0.75 seconds. A relatively simple concept but all other characters in the game must remain stationary when attacking their foes and must turn their bodies around when retreating. Tracer can move and use basic attacks at the same time. What is unique about Tracer aside from her British accent, dual wielding pistols, and non-threatening appearance is her movement mechanic, which is unlike anything Blizzard has introduced in Heroes of the Storm since its inception. When an omnic with possible ties to Null Sector stepped forward to rally the omnics of the Underworld in a full-blown revolution against humans, it was only through the combined efforts of Tracer, Winston, and Iggy that no one else was hurt.While her debut in Heroes of the Storm took place last week for those who pre-ordered Overwatch: Origins Edition for the PC, the rest of the community can now grab a hold of her as she's available for play and purchase starting April 26.Ī feel of comfort has been cast over those individuals who've played her in Overwatch-her mechanics feel very similar to that of the FPS version.
The response was explosive and immediate-Mondatta’s message of peace drowned out in a sea of pain and stolen hope. Though Tracer was present at the event and even fought the sniper, she was unsuccessful in thwarting the assassination. Tensions between humans and omnics boiled over when Widowmaker’s crosshairs fell on Mondatta. Assisting in repairs on the Underworld's Grid earned her an audience with the leader of the Shambali, Tekhartha Mondatta, though disaster was soon to follow. Shortly after leaving the military, an encounter with a like-minded omnic named Iggy led Tracer to the Underworld, where her eyes were opened to the harsh conditions the omnic population of London resided in. Following the disbandment of Overwatch, Tracer was dissatisfied with her quiet life, of replacing heroism with a desk job in the Royal Air Force.
