Here is my playlist for all counter videos I've done so far :) ruclips.net/p/PLrrIBI2SU_lxRId9ZVtI4tt84Kwc9yJxv
The only acceptable tank counter to Rein is to play Rein yourself and assert dominance.
I never thought of orisa as rein counter so I always do this and I am not even a rein main. Some of these reins just like to walk with shield out and are quite passive so it's really fun to beat them up. But then again I will face the good reins and that makes me go hog
The best feeling is being the better rein
Ah yes,an honorable opponent
Our battle will be legendary
Love being the better Rein
As a former rein main I couldnt agree more. I still do this whenever I see a rein regardless of what I'm playing
i’ve always found sombra to be a good counter because you can cloak and run straight past his shield and get a quick hack a couple seconds before he catches up to your team, then when he’s busy, go crazy on his back thruster
And i thought that bastion was a good shield breaker, then the ally with explosives just has to shoot the ennemy team hiding behind rein
Yeah sombra counters everybody, wanna know why? because she’s a bullshit character that needs to get nerfed to the ground.
Sombra 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
I used to love playing sombra, but it just feels gross and unfun to play her now.
@@NebbishWizard yeah i always feel a bit guilty when i play as her, but her play style fits me best so i’m just waiting for the nerf
I only recently learned how good Orisa's fortify is for keeping her out of ults and I love it. When I read the ability at first I thought no cc meant just things like Lucio boop, Sigma Rock, Rein Charge, etc. But when I played the Total Mayhem arcade mode and got to spam fortify, I realized that I could walk out of so many ults because of it (Sigma's, Rein's like the video mentioned, and Mei's to name some). It's incredible and makes me love Orisa more, even if she's not the best tank to play
With just about any character in the game, if you can play them well they're all good. Like a really good genji can still do well against a Zarya and Sym
In solo que Orisa is absolutely fine, the reason she isn't meta at the highest levels is because of winston/dva dive comps
@@danneltheflannel yeah that's very fair, I'm only in high plat and a Winston is a pain in the fucking arse, but I've yet to find Dva's challenging. In for a rude awakening I think 😶
@@danneltheflannel haven't gotten the chance to play higher level games yet.
This is probably gonna sound like bullshit, but in OW1 when I played with my friends, which I did primarily, I was low plat. When I played on another account by myself I was masters. I love my friends, and I have a blast playing games with them, but they are very bad lol.
So I can say at low ranks Orisa is the best tank in the game hands down. Stick a pocket healer on her and you can solo team fights.
Not looking forward too adjusting my playstyle for higher level games like I had to do with Ana in OW1 lmao. Got used to taking sniper fights with widows. Found out the hard way you can't do that in masters.
@@Synchrojikan probably why i found orisa so fun (picked up overwatch a few days ago) and will continue to play orisa, her abilities are so easy to use and just stomp most other agents
It also turns out that Zenyatta can be a pretty good counter for Rein as well, with his Discord orb the moment he pops his shield down to fire strike, you discord him and then focus his shield till it pops, then just charge up your orbs and if you hit all 5 then that’s major damage, then just keep sending primary fire orbs down range to pepper him with damage. This is most effective when you’re further away so you don’t get thrown around like a ping pong ball by Rein
THESE ARE NOT ALL HARD COUNTERS simply effective options/playstyles against the hero. Overwatch 2 does not have many HARD counters simply heroes that work better or worse vs eachother.
If you want to learn more about the basics of counters watch this video: ruclips.net/user/shortsXuINwDwsKjA
Kiriko is another support which can shut down a rein with her suzu.
Can’t wait for your cover for Rammatra
No, they're not even effective options and you don't know what you're talking about.
Orissa is one of the worst picks vs Rein (the best brawler in the game) in addition to Orisa being generally bad already. Instead consider picking ball. He basically ignores Rein and can easily dive and get out immediately unlike a Winston.
Pharah, just like Orissa, is a noob trap. You're not doing anything useful by spamming into shields. If anything, I'd go as far as to say that Rein is a counter to Pharah because he generates so much more space for the hitscan to shoot the Pharah. To actually counter Rein, any flanker will do, just ignore him as he's the tankiest character in the game. Sombra is really good at shutting him down. Only a shit rein will hold his shield into spam, and an even worse junkrat will just spam down the same spot. You need to play junkrat as a flanker in OW2.
As for supports, while Ana is pretty good, Kiriko is just better because Suzu is too good to pass up and Rein can never catch her.
@@justthatguy7608 kiriko counters everyone with suzu
@@BunPrince fair but also i think she super shuts down rein, the amount of times my entire kit was denied cuz of that suzu haunts me
I will say as a rein main with 800 hours on the hero be very aware of his charge its really good for mobility and can now be canceled so always keep that in mind when diving past him into the back line
Oh, definitely. People don't expect you to cancel your charge that missed them to start swinging in the back line. It's also the best way to handle backline spam like Junk.
Roadhog is also a pretty good counter for rein, you hook him out of his charge, and they can not only beat them at range but also out tank them head on. Because somehow a fat guy can take a blow from a massive rocket hammer better then a guy in a massive metal armor suit can take getting shot at with nails and scrap.
Honestly, Doomfist. It's so good to put him out of position when punching him even if his shield is up. His punch also cancels his shatter. Punching when he's charging also stuns you both and can happen in your favour or save a life. Also when punching with a charged punch and people are most likely behind him, they all get launched back.
Winston will forever be the counter to rein. Diving past him or pressuring him down through his shield wit your primary is meta.
Brig is also decent vs Rein. If you're playing with your team, you shield bash whenever he tries to pin and stun both of you
While true, it is generally accepted Rein wins in the brig matchup, her close proximity requirements mean he just crushes you 1v1.
@@Unhallowed_Saint i mean, 1v1 sure but you don't fight rein 1v1 anyway right, you break him down and overwhelm him. I'm saying you just want to deny his pin
Bro haha picking Brig vs rein is a hardt hrow
You can stun rein during his charge with Brigitte with a well timed shield bash. You both get stunned but it's effective
Fun fact Bridget can actual use her shield bash to interrupt his charge it result in both of the falling over
When you beat Reinhardt with your Reinhardt: *signature look of superiority*
Every Rein main: “over aggressive, no such thing, healer just need to keep up.”
Remember, Orisa’s fortify only blocks shatter for herself, NOT for the people behind her
Rammatra is also awesome, since he can punch through his shield, also lucio (kinda) if he dashes you can boop him making him miss your team and hit a wall making him extremely easy as a target.
"if the enemy team is not playing any of the meta heroes, go Pharah"
TRUE! XD
If you are good at playing off angles you can take out hitscans pretty easily. You have to get the jump on them though. If they see you first you’re probably dead unless you have a mercy to bail you out.
Thank you for these posts! Love the content.
Much love ❤️
I use Bastion, delete his shield in seconds then when he tries to charge just pop an a bomb in-front of his path
protip, but a risky move, sheild bashing a charging rein as brigitte will knock you both down, imo it works best when he gets closer to your team as it puts you at less risk and punishes the enemy rein harder.
I always play symmetra against rein because it’s so easy to charge up my beam. Very good counter in my opinion
The beam is good, but the Sym will have to constantly be strafing around the Rein. Or else they'll have their face bashed in with the hammer
A good Rein will not let that slide and they're going to do their job, swinging in the frontline, tanking DMG instead of shield botting bc he's a brawler, and if he can't brawl, may as well switch. You as the Sym will likely be focused immediately by the team and deleted as well if you're that close. You'll only "counter" him when they're already down 2, which is usually a fight heavily in your favor anyways. Speaking about higher ranks though. Sym prob works against shieldbot Reins. Maybe in low diamond too. Reins there are either gods or trash tbh.
you are the type of person I would solo shatter on cooldown
I feel like lucio is a really good counter bcz if u can keep sticking on a wall then there isn’t much a lonely reindt can do
@@Justin-pp4uz He can just shield all your hits and just wait till either A, you accidentally fall down. Or B, someone else comes and then they take care of you
Another tip for all you reins out there you can cut of the healers los from the tank with his barrier and its easy pickings for your team💯
And exposing your back to the dps, I don't know. Please explain.
@@Willysedom its very situational and most of the time the dps are in the backline with the supports but its works most if the time just gotta be good at positioning yourself on the map
I use roadhog. Spam his shield with secondary shoot. It deals much damage at mid range. And just hook him when the shield is gone
I’ve found that DVA melts his shield very quickly too
I started playing overwatch and Im glad to know Raul doesnt just do Apex vids
Yup OW has been a ton of fun to learn and teach!
@@RauKnowsOW 👍
NO THE ORISAS KNOW THEY HARD COUNTER US NOW
Well fortify doesn't block shatter it just cancels the knock down for orisa, not anyone behind her.
Yes it cancels the effects of shatter on Orisa herself. Good clarification
Fresh cut my boi 🥶🥶
Thank ya!
@@RauKnowsOW np
My favorite is going rein and out reining the other rein. Make HIM counter YOU.
I usually use bastion against Reinhardt, usually takes out his shield quickly while getting some damage off, only problem is his charge, which is sometimes easy to sidestep
As rein, love seeing the enemy team diving my back line thinking I can’t reach them. *hits shift key* “u are now stuck between a wall and a rocket hammer”
I pick Brigette to counter the dash. We both get stunned but hey I thinks it’s worth it.
Who needed this video 😂 rein gets countered by like 75% of the roster lmao. The video should have been “what DOESN’T counter rein” 🤣
“This is how you play the game, by playing the game”
Doom is an underated rein counter. His punch actually hits and stuns him through his shield, and stops charges with ease. also his punches only on a 4 second cooldown so you don't have to commit your ability in a single team fight to stop him. on top of that using block when he is attacking you and or your team they'll build and powered punch extremely quickly or force him to stop doing what he does best.
Its goes both ways cause rein can also counters doom
A good rein is gonna fuck a doom up, when you use block he will charge you and if you punch in he will counter pin and survive because of more hp and armour
@@krit_j162 quite the opposite actually if you block that close to the Hammer wielding Maniac himself while knowing his charges off cooldown, that's not Doom's problem. Contrary to popular belief Doom actually has a lot of flexibility in these engagements as he can cancel his block and react to Ryan's charges. He also makes Ryan think twice fire striking as a single fryer strike charges 90% of his blockage. Can't tell how many Ryan's I've charged in power punch off because of it. Also the punch cool down is much shorter than the charge cool down you can actually get in one extra punch before any charge ever occurs. Which means Doom can still play exactly like normal wow counter and Ryan at the same time.
A lot of people that do encounter can counter him back if the Doom is bad this can go for Sigma and Rein respectivley . There's a fine line between being counterpicked and just being bad at Doom
@@gargoyle1376 sure Reinhardt can mess you up but that's less of the Reinhardt doing and more so you just being bad at doing. Doom has ways to escape reinhardt's range, knock him out of range and charge his power punch off a single fire strike in 10 damage worth of random chip. Sure a good Reinhardt can mess up a doom but Doom has so much more options to dealing with him than Reinhardt has to dealing with doom. That's just how counterpicks work you don't you don't just pick the right hero and win you pick the right hero and actually be good with him.
Thanks for the info for a rein main I will take action not to die by them
So no bastion it destroys his shield east making him a open target
Fortify does NOT block shatter for your teammates. Keep that in mind!
This is true!
If we're being real almost half of the cast counters Reinhart
I've learned this as a junkrat main, if a reinhardt is charging you or a teammate if you time a blast mine it will make him fly over you or your teammate
I personally enjoy using echo to fly above him and around him using sticky bombs once he has his shield up when he's distracted
I've learned to read every rein intentions to ult and always make them sleep mid charge and when I eat their ult
Sym is such a good counter for him too
Ramattra is the best Rein counter as his grasp can stop a charge and his pummel goes through his shield
B a s t i o n go **BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR**
How to counter Rein: Play legit any character 💀
Fresh trim 🥵
Just realised there’s more people talking about Rau’s hair than what he says in the video 💀
Basically haha
3 quick counters
I feel like this was 10
Orisa is possibly my favorite counter pick to reighn as she basically blocks everything
Ana absolutely ruins Rein when played correctly. A defensive Rein isn't very threatening in the first place, and an aggro Rein gets hard punished by Ana's cooldowns
Doomfist is a good rein counter since he will never get close to you if you knock him away every 4 seconds, and if things really get dicey, you just jump out
Bastion. As a bastion main, i can gladly say that bastion in turret mode as long as he has a solid 15-20 meters distance and a good 2 or 3 seconds can kill a rein with full hp and shield hp and if their being pocketed. Arguably the best tank killers along with reaper
I'm guilty of being over aggressive with Reinhardt
talking from personal experience you can also "delay" Reinhardt's ult as Orisa if you use the spin while he's using it right on top of you, sort of like you're juggling him
Brigitte is a good counter for Rein too. You can shield bash him mid-charge to stun him (and yourself), your flail swings go though his shield, your flail has a slightly longer range than his hammer, you can boop him away if he's getting too close, and you can flip a 180 and shield bash to run away from him easily.
Be careful when brawling against him, 3 hammer swings and you're dead, but you can really be a little shit if you know what you're doing.
Eh, not the best option.
Brig shield is useless in hammer range, and it's flame shot goes through, rein has knockback resistance for been a tank, a way larger health pool, and if you fail the timing to shield bash, then Rein oneshots you with the charge.
Shield bash out of range would be better by not going close in the first place.
I will never call Mccree cassidy
I love to play sigma and I find Reinhardt really annoying. My best strategy so far is:
A-Stay away from him, he’s very weak at range
B-Watch out for charges and otherwise stay away and use rock to stun when possible and in that time attack while moving away from him
C-If with a good team/have coms then just quickly dispatch him or focus his healers then him
I would greatly appreciate any more advice as I’m trying to get better and want to know if I’m missing something 😊
I Javelin’d him just as I saw him start up his jets and that helps a lot as Orisa.
As a junkrat i always throw a bear trap where he charges. Somehow they ALWAYS and i mean ALWAYS get stuck in it even if they didnt get in it through charge.
I think my favorite thing to do against rien is while no one is paying attention (apparently) I go behind his shield and just start gunning him down while he’s trying to turn and hit me
Dooms a pretty good counter as you can knock him out of shield and out of his own range and his firestrike gives a lot of charge for your block. Also you can easily dodge reins charge or punch it in order to stun him.
As an orisa main i love trilling reinhearts with my javelin agains the rocket dash
As a rein main, bastion is terrifying to go up against
The ammount of times ive been accidentally slept by ana when ulting is 😶
Maybe I'm just a filthy Junker Queen main, but if you Carnage through most Reinhardts' shields, they'll panic and try to attack you, giving you an opportunity to stick them with Gracie, pop your call for extra health and speed, then pump shells in him until you have Carnage back. If he's still alive by that point, I'll usually do the Gracie Carnage combo to finish him off.
I love using Mei to punish an overextended Reinhardt. Wall him off the choke point and M1 him to death.
Also you can survive a charge if full HP then immediately use iceblock.
And your wall can 1. Block shatter for your entire team (iceblock works too but only for yourself or the very specific situation when a teammate is exactly behind you)
Or 2. Wall him off after shattering so he can’t follow up on the kills
I have 2 moods when I’m playing as Reinhard
I must protect my team with my life
CHARGE THE GENJI
Bastion can also crack his shield pretty quickly.
Echo can also be fantastic. Her beam applies to shields just the same as heros. If Rein's shield is cracked at all, use Echo E on the shield and it'll break it near instantly. Echo E does 200 DPS on 50% HP targets.
Echo is a great Rein counter in my experience, but Echo has a pretty high skill floor so it takes practice.
Some maps with junkrat aim at the wall and get behind his shield
what about bastion's machine gun? it could quickly break his shield down
Yeah but he’s also a relatively easy charge target. Didn’t want to use him for dps counter in back to back vids as well
My go to for Reinhart counter is always Reaper, gets him every time
Kiriko cleanse anyone he ults, or charges
Symetra EATS his shield and can slow his mele ability with turrets. Plus she can teleport the team behind
I love that you picked pharah but only if they don't have
*makes a lists of incredibly common picks*
That’s why I gave the junkrat alternative. Pharah is by far best option by far but a good hitscan can shut her down
You look good with a trimmed beard :)
Thank ya! ❤️
If they have hitscan and you go junkrat I'm inventing slurs
Junkrat can handle hitscans he just has to practice bounce shots and avoiding moving through main chokes
Junkrat's trap is also really punishing for Reinhardt so if your close range pop a trap and with his massive hitbox he will get stuck and just made the crap out of him
Mei works pretty well to just slow him down till he can't move and wall off his support then let your team do the rest
Trace is to distract the Reinhardt you know get behind when he has a shield up and do damage he'll have to quickly turn to lock the damage from you and then get hit by your team and even if you die your team will already have them at low HP
Yup I love fighting reins as a tracer main but she’s a lot higher skillcap than most of the dps
It's better to go for the backline instead of the rein. Your team can easily deal with a rein when his backline is distracted
I usually just jump around like a mad man till his shield his low, they usually take off the shield, thats when i throw Gracie, jump around and shoot till my shout cool down is over and then swing my axe. Usually works
I have always found a good tactic to be hyperagressive junkrat. Mine up and over to him,fire at him to hopefuly hit him,his shield,or any allies,and then get close,and throw your mines at him to disrupt his positioning,giving you a chance to hit around his barrier,and use another mine to get the fuck outa thrre,and repeat.
Just today I played against a Reinhardt (as pharah, public match) and bro got so mad that he literally tried every hitscan dps (leaving his team w/o a tank) and still died to me like 5 more times. So I rly think that if the hitscan on the enemy team isn't the most skilled you'd still be fine as pharah.
Especially if you have pocket mercy and they cant track
Low elo yes
Doomfist is actually a pretty good counter again Reinhardt, his lack of mobility and shield allow for easy punches and backing him up as much as possible
If you didn't know with orisa if you push Reinhardt and he deploys his shield just push until you are touching him and fire your weapon you are so close to him so you go through his shield and your bullets Actually make damage
as a rein main the most impossible players to against are Sombra, Orissa and a Tracer who can dash effectively
Genji does great against Rein. Deflect hits and fire strikes, jump over ULT (especially to counter the shatter counter to blade), he can do decent burst DMG to Rein despite him having a lot of armor when he's either low or ready to be cleaned, and Rein can't keep up/peel against you (if you're efficient). It forces Rein to lose on ULT charge with the firestrikes and to play more a little more cautiously bc his supports could get deleted in a moment and he won't get the heals he needs to do his job.
Rn with Kiriko, Lucio, and the Genji nerfs though... It's tough. I hope the DPS passive gets changed, Genji readjusted, and Kiriko nerfed. Kiri is obv overtuned as she patches pretty much all weaknesses while countering essentially all the relevant roster, is one of the best 1v1 supports, posseses among the most forgiving mobility, has a fast charging ULT, low cooldowns (relatively), and is capable of outputting very potent healing. It's unfortunate that she clearly a desperate attempt at luring players to support bc she'll eventually be nerfed and many are going to be mad/sad about that :/
You can (or could) also use kirikos grenade thing to counter his charge and hammer slam. I believe the purification effect makes his charge go straight through the target
Countering charge is very time dependent and meh and for shatter you could only save one teammate unless they’re all together. I agree Kiriko is broken rn but I think even zen is a better option due to discord and sheer damage output and staying out of his range
Bastion existing 😈
The fact that junk was on this list and not tracer baffles me
Personally I'd recommend Tracer. I'm no Tracer main but I find it relatively easy to outmanuever a rein (or anyone really) and get close enough to deal heavy damage without getting hurt.
Orisa into reinhardt is in my opinion the saddest matchup in all of overwatch.
Cuz reinhardt just can’t do anything, he has to basically just be a shield bot but even then it don’t work against Orisa who has great shield spam.
Kuriko at the corner...
Sym can literally melt him into pudding
I personally like to counter him with tracer because you can just dash behind his shield and do it again when I turns around. It’s easy damage if your team is there because that’s where he’ll be focusing and normally when they take damage they turn around to stop it and then your team melts them. You can also solo him but you’ll probably need your ult. If it’s a good Reinhardt don’t push him alone though.
Agreed as a tracer main I love going against rein
Masters+ Reins will read Tracers after so long and get some cheeky pins off on them lmao
Zen is also great for quickly destroying Rein's shield
This might be a minor help.
I often hit Reinhardt with Lucio's soundwave whenever he charge
Its not completely stops him, but at least it cancels him from grabbing anyone
Orisa doesn't block shatter, only makes it so she doesn't get stunned. The rest of the team will be knocked down if behind you
as a rein main I'd say by fair the character i struggle against the most is bastion. Yeah my shield can counter most of his attacks, its just his mini gun form. One use of that ability is enogh to destroy a rein shield and kill him with time to spare
Tracer is a good DPS against him too. She can just run circles around him and he will have a hard time blocking the shots and hitting the hammer
Agreed but she’s kinda weak rn and a high skill cap for most new players
