"erm... actually 🤓☝"
I don't got one of those just a fun fact, the term poke came from fighting games like street fighter or Tekken and means a safe fast attack that usually deals little damage and sometimes require your opponent to take a risk to deal with
I don't think the song list is right. Is it? I'd like to know what they are
Even though it's technically correct, please don't tell people that Lucio can work in dive. 90% of the time when a player picks Lucio "for dive", it means they are going to ignore callouts and the team in order to maximum W 100% of the time and feed.
@@thewarmwind6171 youre just playing with bad Lucios lol.
@@leo_wentzel yup. That won't stop them from sourcing this video as justification for their terrible play.

*picks reaper for poke*
I mean, I'm getting the hit markers across the map!
Yeah Have you not heard of Reapers most recent rework: he shoots sniper ammo and headshots automatically teleport him to to the enemy and gets his shotguns back but after 2 seconds he recalls back like tracer.
bro wym? the best poke comp is reaper, tracer, brig, lifeweaver, and doomfist
If I pick Reaper in a poke comp I'll probably just stick to the more campy playstyle, probably hiding around corners near where my teams gonna be so if divers show up then I completely go off on them. That's pretty much all you can do as Reaper in that situation really, just wait for the enemies to come to you and your team up close if they manage to. Which is why playing Reaper on poke works better on defense.
nawww 💀
For those wondering, Illari is totally a poke hero because of her deece range and easy-peasy heals.
Pillon is also unreliable in rush and dive. Needs almost comstant replacing in those cases, which is not even a possibility.
Decent damage too.
This video is actually insane. I play all roles and sometimes I don't understand why the team just isn't working but now I have an idea how to adapt depending on what the team is. I guess I'm a dive and brawl player hahaha
Excellent choices! Dive and Brawl are always fun.

If 80% of the playerbase watched this and understood it, the average level of play in comp would jump 30% or more. Crazy how much composition determines a winning team in ranked

I love the line "So they have another chance to lose the duel" so true in the metal ranks
I actually cackled at that part lol it’s so true.
is it metal or medal always puzzles me as a non-native speaker medal Id also see as bronze silver gold so it should be the same right
@@LilypadOW metal, because bronze, silver, gold, platinum, are types of a metal (or metal alloy like bronze but I digress), as opposed to "diamond" and master/grand master.
Hell yeah , covering support compositions first! Hoping and praying to see less Lifeweaver and Mercy combos that will NEVER swap off.
Don't worry all those Lifeweaver and Mercy combos are just practicing the Washington Justice vs Vegas tech
I need an expanded avoid list just for them
i feel actual heart wrenching pain whenever i see someone choose life weaver explicitly after seeing me choose mercy, even worse when the team can also do well with a mercy and they just throw in a life weaver. bro.
5:18 "So, they have another chance to lose the duel". LMAO. Yippie!
Brig to me is more of variation comp hero, for example in traditional dive brig is normally not a great pick but if your team is running a deep dive variation (ball, sombra, tracer) brig is pretty good for protecting the other support. and in a standard brawl comp brig isn't great but if you are running a junkerqueen variation she is a pretty strong pick since she is good at keeping junkerqueen up..
If you run dive hard, it’d be better to pick Kiriko to follow up, and she doesn’t need much protection. For Junkerqueen, mostly people pick Lucio for double speed boost, and Brig is not enough to keep Tank up. Rather than tying to a comp, it’d be easier to say you play Brig whenever the other support is Ana/Bap, who usually position themselves far from everyone.
I agree, I probably should have said she's an unexpected hybrid rather than saying she's weird. Listing some of those would have been good too.
when playing Ashe Brig Ana, and Winton Tracer it's a hybrid comp that was pretty nice in ow1
@@Soft_Ghost I was about to say "bUt WhaT aBoUt bRiG/ZeN" since Zen could really use the protection every now and then....but then I realized how shitty the amount of healing there would be for the rest of the team lol
@@Brandon-br7tcit's just another variation of deep dive. Brig is good in any ball tracer variation, and zen will help melt any targets while brig makes up for the weaknesses of dive
I just want to take a moment to appreciate how good this b-roll is. Like hot damn, these are all some nice clips

“if I can not connect the dots, I switch” is my play style，還從沒思考過具體的組合
視頻總結得超贊
As a brig main who talks to other brig mains, she is either called an aggressive brawl hero or a defensive poke hero and it's really situational, very dependent on who your other support is. However, it's probably likely you want to be defensive with her, since she doesn't have as much survivability as people think.
I am a Masters player with a thousand plus hours in the game playing since the beginning and for some reason my brain didn't fully understand what poke comps were until now.
I understood it gameplay wise I guess from knowing when "we should play a comp for shield break or drawing out their resources *or poking*" or "this comp wants to hold s key left click and melt them and kite around and/or play slow" but I never attached the phrase poke comp to them fully I guess 😂
I'm pretty sure in Overwatch 1 instead of calling it "poke comps" people would call it "bunker comps" with OW1 Orisa and Baptiste or something (maybe Orisa Hog as a shield break comp)......and of course the mighty double shield comps with Orisa and Sigma... 😒
@@Brandon-br7tc well bunker comps were also a bunker. Sometimes they were anchored down and couldn't move as much or more accurately could move a lot but needed to time it around shield deployables too if needed. Think bastion pirate ship on payload junkertown even as the most mobile version of bunker comp. Think bunker comp on illio well orisa roadhog pulling into well combo they could rotate around all day but they were still anchored at times. Poke comps are a little more free form at times
@@willwunsche6940 Fair enough, now that I think about it there seemed to have been both poke and bunker comps in OW1. They do both share a similar bursting-down-the-enemy-from-long-to-mid-range style.

Thank you so much for this video, you're the GOAT 🙏🏼 I've been trying to understand compositions more in depth recently but haven't been able to find anything really talking about comps. You explained everything so clearly, amazing video 💛
I recently got back to OW2 and I'm trying to practice each one of these "archetypes" in my QPs and tank role queues. Will pay more attention to my supports to adjust my playstyle even more and to see if I can improve my synergy with them and play accordingly.
Constantly pumping out the top S++++ tier content. Excellent video.
Bro ur humor in these videos makes it so easy to watch and get good tips about the new meta while enjoying 😂😂 I can’t believe I havnt found u sooner
This was actually extremely helpful for me. I knew the different team comps but never knew for sure what kind of characters fit in them and why.
brig isn’t only a counter pick covering comps weaknesses, shes pretty good in dive and poke pretty bad with brawl. but her main power where she really shines is in hybrid comps wether its brawl-poke or poke-dive or dive-brawl she does best in all of them.
Brawl dive example doomfist tracer cassidy or sojurn brig ana.
brawl poke example junkerqueen genji sojurn or ashe brig lucio
and poke-dive example dva tracer echo or ashe brig zen
im such a nerd for this
S4 changes made her pretty shit regardless. Nerfed pack range affect her neutral a lot in these situations and her new ult is lame af where you get value once per 10 game if you are lucky.
@@musicxxa6678 She gets punished by certain characters and can punish other characters. Her S4 changes were a net buff but it also made her a harder hero to play since you need to cook during your ult. Brig Ult can now consistently win fights, something it couldn't do before, however, it requires you to make good plays during it to get real value from it.
Brig is honestly a pretty good rush hero, however, she gets hard punished if the enemy team is playing a rein or ram comp. She has the flexibility to frontline well with the tank, with an especially good paring with JQ, and she can peel really well for the other support.
@@musicxxa6678 her pack nerf was such a red flag why is repair pack the thing they nerf when its the most engaging part of her kit brig is one of those heroes to control a position and dynamically assist divers or whatever with repair packs but i know they wont buff it back because “tHe piCk rAtE tHe wiN ratE 🤓”
Stupid philosophy that blizzard uses.
but her new ult is honestly good
I really appreciate this video honestly. Been playing overwatch for like 5 years. I watch streamers every once in a while and I hear about these comps, but I never found an actual explanation for how they worked or who exactly is a brawl character or a rush character. I'm mostly a Mercy main, so I kinda picked up on a poke comp being good, however something really interesting happens at my rank. Rather than think about the goal of the comp, it's more about some arbitrary heal/second number my team expects. So Mercy/Zen, "We need a main healer!". I always found that odd cause for so long top 500 was just brig/zen. Thanks for the video. Overwatch needs more actual educational videos like this.
"We need a main healer" is another way of saying "Our tank takes infinite damage"
Wow, thank you for finally filling in a new piece of the meta puzzle for me! Very helpful!!
This helps a TON, as someone who plays both dps and support (mainly poke and brawl) this will help me to adapt better to my teams!
this is amazing. Do you have or do you plan on making a video on countering? Like if the enemy team has a really frustrating Sombra, who should I switch to? etc.
Another amazing educational video from Yeatle…wahoooooo
Tysm for this video
Because of you i have a completely different perspective of overwatch its crazy how good you are at teaching tysm man ^^
one thing i would've liked to see would be optimal compostions\playstyles on maps but that can be a video for another day. 10/10 explanation though.
educational indeed
Yeatle I love your commentary on actually great educational content. Keep up the good work hamster man!
This is one of the best videos I've ever seen existing team comps. I've been playing support and i can tell when what i play does not mesh with the team. It's explained perfectly.
great content, I think you may have understated some of the "inbetween" comps that exist, like not all comps are squarely in these categories and some heroes excel at these kinds of comps. Like dva is a great example. She can dive really well, that's what she does, but she can be clean up for poke comps pretty effectively, just using dm to counter dive and taking duels with dps in a poke v poke situation, denying space. She used to be in rush in OW1 but it really, really, doesn't work now as she really sucks when she's face tanking. Similar things can be said about ball and winston. Doom fist is more on the brawl side as his block does keep him in the fight long enough for your team to win a brawl, and he can stun key targets that are attacking targets in a brawl.
The amount of "inbetween-ness" generally depends on your dps, like people who are one tricks forcing mei/symm in a doom comp. It really puts into perspective which heroes a tank player should learn if they want to be competitive. One all arounder is probably required, preferably a good one like Ram, but Orisa and Rein are options. If you one trick you have to really know each type of comp and your weakness in each because your team might not play around you.
Dva is one of those heroes that if the player is good enough they can work in a lot of situations, however she is unquestionably worst in poke compared to brawl and dive. Idk what rank you're in but dva is a major liability in high rank on poke maps even with perfect matrix usage if the teams are even remotely balanced.
I think Yeatle is right, it really depends on the supports. Like Doom with Mei Sym, the Main support can choose to play around it with Lucio to make the comp more brawl, Mercy pocket the other dps to make the comp more Poke, or Zen to play around Doom and make the comp more Dive. It doesn't really fall neatly into the 3 catagories, but the off heal role has a pretty big say in what the comp does.
"Counters" don't really come into play when you talk about entire team comps. It's almost entirely about how you well you play the comp and how good the comp is on the map. Like if you're playing poke and you switch from Zen to Mercy because the enemy is running dive, Merc is still playable with a poke comp.
Lower rank players REALLY give importance to countering but you shouldn't try to switch entire comps to "counter" the enemy team. You make individual hero swaps, but not team swaps
Completely true, I was thinking that the main factor in deciding which comp to go with isn't what your supports are playing. It is which map you're on. And for lower ranks the best bet is usually just playing your best hero.
@Edwin Holmer which is funny because most players in low ranks consider "your best hero" as the one you deal the most damage/healing/kills on. Then they become bastion/reaper/junkrat/mercy/moira/reinhardt 1 tricks. And get stuck in platinum/diamond.
This video was amazing, great work
Thanks mang! Really good info. Not a lot of people cover team comps and I found it very helpful.
ive never heard of rush comp before
I love you. Please do more drunk streams
Drunk Yeatle is one of my favorite things to ever exist.
I haven't played OW in a hot minute due to a setup change and bad internet, so this was pretty helpful to learn about the comp and playstyle changes in OW2. Now I need to either learn to play tank without a counterpart to enable or play support
This video was great! Awesome work, yeatle!
This video helped me finally understand team comps after 6 years of blindly running at the enemy team. Thank you based yeatle o7
poggers yeatle youtube vid
Tks my boss,rly don’t know much about what makes a team before ur vid ❤
Best overwatch video I've seen all year. Well done ❤❤
Even if you know everything about the game you forget the essentials sometimes, I'm choosing my tank pick by the map i'm playing but never consider my support teammates and that's not the right way
For exemple I instant lock Sigma on Havana because i know it's the most optimal map for poking BUT if my supports picks heroes optimal for dive or brawl, thean i SHOULD change my pick and playing with the strength of my team
Thanks for that :D
Sigma: “He also has pretty good damage mitigation with the hand sucky thing”
That’s perfect.
This is probably the most helpful video I have seen to get me playing better. Thank you so much. I’ll just start biting the bullet and pick heroes based on what my team wants to run to help the synergy.
Thank you so much!! I feel like this helps so much
i never understood compositions or really cared ngl, as long as im doing my job properly and my team is also doing their job properly then its a win in my book.
D is for dive 😎
I need to put this information on a spreadsheet so I can always have it on hand, super useful video
brawl counter dive is all the information i needed, also amazing vid
You’re doing gods work dude. I’ve been watching a lotta overwatch tutorials lately and they always be saying stuff like “dive is based” but they never tell me what dive is 😭 luckily this video exists
Doomfist can play dive and brawl at the same time. It's hard to get team mates who are flexible mid game
Doom is outclassed by practically every tank that specializes in brawl. Brawl tanks are categorized by their heavy sustain and consistent damage in a fight, two things Doom lacks heavily. His only form of sustain is an interruptible block that renders him nearly immobile (and the measly amount of health from his passive), meaning he has to back out of an engagement much faster than a Reinhardt, Zarya, JQ or Ramattra would have to, and his highest form of damage is from cooldowns which lacks consistency.
Man! This seriously helped! YO!! 🔥
Seriously, thanks a lot for dumb it down and share it! All the best
Thanks for making a video in 15 mins. A lot of content creators go on and make hour long videos when some people just need the the gist
I think for most of us you just need to choose who you're comfortable playing, unless some super important change needs to happen (like Bastion is there),
I agree, play what you're good at or enjoy! This video should just help players know when to play slower, faster or setup.
HIP HIP HOORAY
thank you! this is so well explained
I haven't played OW in months and I still watched this video. You answered a question I had for years. Thank you.
Yippie, hip hip hooray, wahooo
Yiiippppiiieeee!!!
i was looking at your channel i swear 12 hours ago, but ig it was just before 17 hours ago for vids, thanks yeatle!
honestly this is the best way to put this into words, especially for people like me who don't look into all the specific nerd stuff like you said, I kinda have an idea of this already, but this video will definitely help friends and help me put this into words, great video really simple and easy to understand.
honestly, support is the most important role I agree, in OW1 i'd definitely argue tank as it was a lot more about having crazy amounts of shielding from your two tanks and just being a juggernaut with roadhog, but now the best thing is to make your entire team a juggernaut as a support hero to take back the point or defend a large attack from the other team. it's really really difficult when you have people diving and you are playing Lucio, honestly i'd say that in OW2, your team literally lives and dies by the support, you don't have the crazy protection of tanks in OW1, and if your support aren't able to save you, then it's really tough, and in quick play (even at lower levels) you often see teams with bad support really struggle, while the team with supports healing a crazy amount dominate
So.... Reaper is a poke hero, right?
I low key miss old Orissa. Her range and ability to head shot is really good for suppressing the enemy. I know why she had to change but it's a playstyle I miss.
Except they didn't need to rework her, because all they needed to do was balance her around having a 7 or 8 second barrier cooldown so she can reposition often enough since she's the only tank in 5v5. Changing her barrier shape to allow for better coverage (closer to Winston's barrier) is also an option. I mean, if Doomfist can be a tank in his current state, then old Orisa is more than qualified to be a tank.
We are definitely lacking ranged/poke tank options compared to brawl options. We need old Orisa back.
Personally, reworked orissa is much much more fun to play
@@abhinandhari7812 depends on how you played old Orissa. If you only played behind her shield than yes it's a boring playstyle. If you softened them up from range than bullied them at close range it was really fun. In a tank duel situation she could've beat most other tanks if you knew how to counter their abilities and land your headshots. Another benefit she was the only tank that could suppress Pharah from range. It was so nice to see a Pharah peppering you and all you needed to do was to paint the area in bullets to force a retreat from a Pharah.
I would like the idea of recicle her kit for a new character, imagine Effi as a Support who makes shields and has cc and a Nano for the team as ult!!
For the actual Orisa i think they can make the javaline spin duration longer so she can have more defensive potential or give her a new passive
@@bri...... Orisa does not need longer abilities or more defensive power, she needs more damage and for discord orb to be removed from the game. Right now it's hard to confirm kills with Orisa, the damage drop off range nerf basically removed all of the lethality she had in season 2. All she really has going for her now is that she's hard to kill - with the caveat that no tank is hard to kill with zen in the game. With Zen being so good Orisa becomes insanely bad since Orisa has very little counterplay against him and relies on her ability to stay alive when face tanking.
you are an truly amazing player, movement, decisions, everything!
nice vid, kept it simple and uderstandable! helped me a lot
Thank you Yeatle, now I can send the video to my supports when they complain why a Doom cannot play like a Reinhardt.
I think there needs to be a 4th comp category. I would call this ‘carrier or mothership’ comp. Both are based off of naval ship formations, which space fleets in movies are also based off of naval formations. So let me explain:
1) Zarya, Junker Queen, and Hog are all mediocre or awkward at any of the 3 established comps (dive/brawl/poke). The reason being that they don’t really make space for their team. They are excellent at taking space and being impossible to move off of space, but they do not make the space. These tanks are basically like DPS, and benefit from allied heroes playing in front of them, causing enemies to burn their resources.
2) like Motherships, they are in the middle of the formation, surround by quicker and more agile ships. The fighters are sent out ahead of them to wreak havoc, while the cruisers and mother ships power up their slow and powerful end game advance. It’s like the King and the royal guard, if the other concepts weren’t painting enough of a picture. This 4th comp I’m deeming ‘mothership’ comp, plays best with aggressive flanking dps. In Dive, you only need the tank and one dps to create chaos. So 2 people together are creating chaos. One person creating chaos normally means the one guy is on a suicide mission, so in a ‘mothership’ comp, you could get away with one flanker if it’s Tracer, but otherwise you want two dps that are comfortable playing in front of the tank, creating massive distraction, like gnats.
3) Zarya and Junker Queen have the ability to provide a little buff or save to their aggressive dps, especially Zarya, who has the hardest saves. Roadhog has no way to mitigate or buff his aggressive dps, but the chaos created allows for him to catch enemies unaware for easier hook kill combos.
4) I think that Rammatra could be played in this comp, simply because he has the versatility, and when he’s in his base form, he’s vulnerable to aggression, so having aggressive dps definitely benefits him. Ram we all know to be a poke/brawl hybrid, but he would prefer not having to mitigate cooldowns like the other tanks I think are ‘mothership’ comp tanks.
5) for supports, you need ones that can bail out aggressive squishies and in a way mitigate some cooldowns, and also get aggressive themselves. The ideal supports for this comp are: Lucio (almost a requirement for the type of tanks of this comp as this comp is a hybrid of dive and brawl) Kiriko, Lifeweaver, Brig, and you can make an argument for Ana. So you can see the supports are flexible. I didn’t put mercy in here, even though she could work, because other than Zarya, none of the other tanks will allow her to get a safe Rez off if one of the aggressive dps go down, but if you are running a Pharah or echo, by all means run a Mercy. Baptiste isn’t for this comp, as the type of dps that work in this comp don’t go well with Baptiste in many ways. Zen could work in this comp for the same reasons he worked in dive in the olden days.
6) The ideal dps for this comp are: Reaper, Tracer, Genji, Pharah, Echo, Sojourn, Soldier, and flank Junk rat. Basically anyone who makes the enemy have to look backwards, upwards, or off to the side works. You want your tank and supports have resources diverted from their direction.
THIS VIDEO IS LEGENDARY!!!
Been playing ow for at least 6 years and this is nothing new but somehow I stayed and enjoyed the whole vid, well done!
WAHOO
YIPEEE
HIP HIP HOORAY
WAHOOOO
I just found your channel through this video and i just had to subsrcibe ! Great content with good explanation of when and why to use abilities etc.!
Amazing content my brother🔥
Isn't Orisa pretty shit at poke now that her primary got range damage falloff?
In ow2 she felt much more brawl and yea especially now with her range nerf even less poke.
Or theres yznsa playstyle which is all of these at once.
Great video composition. Enjoyed it and learned alot.
Needed this vid thanks
im a sigma main one of my buddys has been playing lifeweaver since release and is super good with him ive noticed he can be surprisingly good with poke to get set ups for sigma and increase mobility when shit hits the fans. i dont know how he stacks up with other poke tanks but he definitely has helped my sigma game
I don't think lifeweaver is necessarily bad for poke comps but there are definitely options that fit the playstyle better, like Zen, Mercy, or Bap. If your team's game plan is to put pressure on the enemy team by melting them from afar then it doesn't really make sense to run a healer that barely does damage from range when those other options exist. Life grip is usually useful but doesn't do much in a poke comp since your team won't be pushing into the enemies anyways.
Waaaahooooo🎉
Hip hip hooray🎉
You don't get the last one cause you didn't make this video 10 minutes longer to cover DPS 😂
Thx for the vid.
Pls do more of this Videos. You help me so much 🙏🏼
Not trynna be 🤓 that guy... but one caveat I think yeatle should mention is that these "comps" should be taken with a grain of salt for the majority of players. Sure, the general concepts of building a team comp around dive, brawl and poke CAN apply to some average players - I'd say up until masters (if that), most players will struggle to carry these out effectively and the game usually devolves into a fuck fest.
Most players should play their best hero imo and not worry too much about these comps. For scrims and coordinated team play though, this is a must-learn vid.
although if ur team is struggling you can analyze what characters would work best with your team to up ur chances
Using this to inform your picks can definitely help at lower ranks. Even if the team isn't coordinated, you picking a hero that works well with your tanks pick can completely change the value you provide to the team at all ranks. Rather than using this information to try to build a proper dive, rush or poke comp, you can use it to not pick hero's who have no synergies with what the team is playing. I think it's especially important for DPS players to use the information in the video to inform their picks and flex to different types of DPS.

Yeah I somewhat agree, outside of scrims and coordinated team play, I truly believe these COMPS are practically meaningless, though I think the synergies you mention though are a bit more relevant.
To make these comps TRULY work, everyone has to know their role effectively in terms of things like enemy (and friendly) positioning, cooldown management, engament timings, eb-and-flow, map control, ult tracking (and making decisions based on that), target focus.... there's loads to make these COMPS work. The inherent SYNERGIES between heroes can come a bit more naturally, I suppose.
But my point is you think little jimmy sat in gold is gonna ult track 5 ults, position effectively, not waste cooldowns, hit shots, shot-call, and play his role as a tracer, for eg, perfectly in a dive comp? fuck no... but neither are the enemies... that's why I think comps don't matter as much, he can play whatever, and if he's good can still have success (look at any unranked to gm ever).
Now with regards to these COMPs... If you watch GM 5 games and top 10 games, they're MILES apart. The top players will know their roles in the comps and execute well, but the barely-GM 5 player will mostly struggle in a higher lobby. They're both GM, though? Exactly... it's hard to apply these concept correctly, but can absolutely be learned with time and deliberate practice :)
(Personal relevant story...)
Having started in bronze back in 2016 to now playing with OWL players (like the GOATs super, pelican, and happy the other day), I have spent time and marinated in EVERY SINGLE rank, so have loads of experience.
I decided to otp Bap (in 2019) after coming back from a long ow break and went from plat to top500 using him. Now, I am GM on DPS (from barely diamond) and Masters on tank (from plat) after going back to those roles for a bit after my Bap journey; i can play other supports quite well as well.
I think there's a benefit to getting good at one (or maximum a handful) of heroes... like really good.... it'll teach you a lot of GENERAL concepts about the game, from there you can apply it quite easily I reckon to other heroes/roles.
@@willmcclard206 but if you're not good at said hero you're going to swap to, then you might actually HINDER your chances.
I think (more so for DPS players), you should choose 2-3 heroes MAX to cycle between that work with most synergies and get good at those. With support/tank, you can do the same... or probably even otp to improve as fast as possible, then transition to other heroes. (see my other reply 😉)
So we dive the pasta into the water, then we let the boiling water poke around and last we rush off the water when al dente. Thanks Chef Yeatle 😊
Actually very helpful, thank you!
Thank you for this
Wahoo
Wa-Hooo!
love the educational videos! please make more!
These subtle jokes and puns are great
In fifa terms
Poke : possession/drop back
Brawl : shooting inside the box
Dive: lobbed through pass
Would it be possible to have a tier list made for quick reference? Just 3 sections for Dive, Brawl, and Poke with all the heroes. Maybe a 4th for Mixed Bag characters lmao. But that'd be really nice to have
This is very helpful thanks
I feel like lifeweaver if in the same boat as brig where he’s not really good at specifically one comp, but more really a counter/support for your support for the comp. I feel like he’s really good with grouping up your team in brawl, as well as getting your team to places that they normally can’t vertically in brawl
