1. If you’re not shooting, you need to be sprinting.
2. Be in a position where you can deal damage to the enemy, while they can’t do the same/have to use cooldowns to get close to you.
3. By taking off-angles, you force the enemy team to focus on you and give your team space.
4. Constant pressure. Abuse sprint and constant re-positioning.
5. “Where can I be right now to get the maximum value?”
6. Mirroring the enemy’s movement will make tracking them easier.
7. High ground, high ground, high ground.
8. Don’t be afraid to use healing pad to save a teammate.
9. Don’t waste your healing pads.
10. Combo your tac-visor with your Kiriko/Anna.
11. Helix rocket first, then shoot.
12. Helix rocket + melee is a really high burst, useful for close range.
13. Healing pad and immediately push ult button.
14. Use visor on an empty mag for extra value.
I've been an okay Soldier player for a while, just dabbling here and there. My aim is quite good, so I couldn't understand why I wasn't really getting anywhere. I watched this video and discovered that my main issue was my positioning. I then went right into the game with a "stay at mid range, seek high ground" mentality, and just immediately started wrecking the enemy team in ways I have never been able to before. Even managed to kill the entire enemy team twice in one match by coordinating visor with Kiriko ult. Thank you!
glad I could help some :)
just did this first round I had near 8k damage
You know this guy is good and giving good advice when he’s playing against people like Bowie and beating them. Thanks for the soldier guide it was really helpful.
Bowie is amazing and also great friend of mine:)
I remember watching your old guides back in 2019 when i first started OW but then u stopped posting. After so many years you’re still a gm/top 500 soldier. Insane.
I would also say that a well coordinated emp and visor is amazing. As it cancels not only there abilities but all counter ults as well. When well timed, can lead to an easy 4-5k
I finally understand most of the things. I watched a lot of videos about how to play him but you are the one that I finally understand. Thank you so much
Thanks a lot for this great tutorial!
This was a beautiful informational imma make sure I put this to the test thanks
Hands down the best soldier guide on RUclips
will check stream for sure, nice video thank you!
this is what im looking for. an experienced soldier guide with 5k hours and other things, not those people who make tips and tricks then say general things, those are pure waste of time. good 76 guide
This is my second week playing overwatch and playing with 76 so this was maad helpful thank you
Great guide thanks!
Thanks man I’m a soldier Main and this video really helped out .
Great video metro.
Thanks for the tutorial. I just got into OW2 and main solider 76 and need to learn and improve as fast as possible.🙂
Solider ftw
I’m just doing 10 hours never main people that’s stupid
@@HearMeOutWhyNotTryDick it’s great to know each player but your comment is absurd…it’s like saying a pro athlete should not specialize in their position. What’s that saying…”think before you speak.”
@@HearMeOutWhyNotTryDick Its stupid to not specialize, its best to have one or two mains.
@Rended_ actually, it's good to have 1-2 main characters, but u need to be able to play most of them as well. In some situations game is almost unwinnable if u won't counterpick (mostly in games where communication is lacking, it can happen in any rank)
Great guide, thank you
Super awesome video!! Thanks
Great video
Very great comprehensive guide. A sub for me
Best guide in all youtube
sehr gut gemacht
This is a great guide for soldier
been maining cassidy but sometimes ill have a bad game and switch to soldier so this guide helped
missed the rocket jumps, could have show cased some map specific jumps that are actually useful and how to do it.
but other than that it's a decent general guide, you'd probably need a more in-depth guide to positioning and such because it is a bit of a higher concept to learn and really does benefit soldier76 a lot.
if you want you can go through all the match ups too but that's like atleast half an hour extra content.
More healing pad tips: Think about where your using it, what your using it for, and what your about to do with it. Missing 30 health but you just won a team fight? Go to your supports. Running from someone? Get to a corner first, dont strand yourself in the open. Are you missing 40 hp, supports are close by but your about to peek most of the enemy team? Drop that pad. And as for saving players, most often this will be your tank. And if it's just you and your tank alone, unless there is a support coming around the corner, then don't drop the pad and just run because you aren't the Messiah and ultimately you are a dps not a support, nobody's gonna blame you.
you're* = you are
your == possession
@KarlKognition for however much appreciation I must inevitably feel about your apparent possession of advanced linguistic abilities, and willingness to share, seeing as you got the message then I do not feel ashamed of finding a quicker way to type
@@9895_ You are likely on a phone with autocorrect. It is one extra letter. 200ms extra. The software will add the apostrophe for you.
@KarlKognition therefore I will direct you towards an old classic, laziness. Is it really so important as to add, in your own words, one extra letter, especially when you apparently immediatley understood what I was saying even without it?
@@9895_ Yes, because I kept reading your statements incorrectly every time and had to double back every time, and I'm a native English speaker!
When you write a comment on an open forum, you aren't writing it just for you to read your own thoughts back to yourself. You are trying to communicate to others! Think about helping others be able to read clearly your message so that they can understand what you want to say. Otherwise, why post a comment if it's just for you?
It's ONE extra letter AND probably with the help of autocorrect. 200ms extra time is on the edge of human reactability. You will reach others better and not notice the difference in time, even considering laziness.
Great guide. Mouse keyboard easy mode controller linear movement is the Chad setting
Klasse Alex !
Also soldier visor doesn't take full control of your aim, you can hit headshots if you aim for the head, even if its aimbot don't just turn your brain off and shoot you should still aim for the head
You made me remember Highway fir no reason
Best thing I learned from this is as ashe and cass you need to precisely shoot the bullet everytime you shoot. Didn’t watch after that. Im going back to not shoot the bullets precisely as soldier. Thnx for the vid!
I main soldier so this really helps
Your tracking is insane
soldier is my favourite flank character, i feel like hes specifically designed to cover both main dps and flank roles. But i almost exclusively use him to annoy widows and hanzos :D
VERY curious what aim trainer you are using at 1:35, looks SUPER useful!
Good video
If I'm not boosted I mainly try to bait escape options out of enemy support them solo ult them
Daily Dose of Overwatch approves this video
I really liked this video just wondering what is the aim training map??
idk but vaxta is a good one
7:31 i feel attacked... 😭
Can I ask what DPI you’re using? I’m brand new to OW and I’m beginning to wonder if a higher DPI than what I’m used to might be necessary. I always use 400 or 800, mostly 800. Great video, thanks for the tips.
1600 dpi, 2.6 ingame, the aim guide that's coming out very soon will go over sens and what's best for you personally in detail! Technically the higher the DPI the lower the response time of your mouse ( 10 800 and 5 1600 is the same technically but gives faster inputs).
@@MetroOW thank you so much for the info. OW is my new obsession so definitely looking forward to that video.
@@MetroOW
I feel like 800 dpi 5 sens in game is a good starting sens. Then you can raise or lower it from there.
1750-1900 is good for soldier. 1900 if you know how to flick. this guy doesnt know how to flick. (okay he said hes bad at flicking. acceptable advice from him) but if you wanna play high level. learn to flick. i play widow, so i flick.
How do you deal with Hanzo? Every time there's an enemy Hanzo he just spams me out of my high ground because he'll instakill me if I try to stick around.
Reposition and use angles to damage other enemy heros where Hanzo cant hit you
Is the frequent jumping shown in the clips an intentional dodging technique? I'm not trying to insult your skill, but in my experience jumping often makes it easier for opponents to predict your movement.
Just asking because I don't think you went over this detail in your video. Otherwise, I found your advice insightful, especially about positioning and ability tracking.
You are 100% correct, jumping makes it easier in certain situations to aim but also makes it easier for the other dps to hit you. You def don't wanna do it against characters like Ashe and Widow a lot it's probably one of my worst traits
With soldiers ult i just solo on a dva then look for supports or dealers
1:23 Whats the code of that aim map? Also whats your crosshair settings? Would really appreciate answer :)
According to a site where I looked it up: 6CJXR1
Soldier Buff Please Blizzard :)
They hate us soldier mains , i thought if his helix had a stun or a damage overtime he'd be better but not op
It's hard to buff soldier bc it will change the meta a lot
@@yourdedcat-qr7ln exactly
@@yourdedcat-qr7ln blizzard is just traumatized after soldier tracer dominated the meta for like 6 months back in the day
@@flarebear5346 I understand Bridgette isn't her old self either after her meta stage
What code is the aim training he used ?
What maps was he using in the early part of video?
You missed helix jump and window + visor
great information. RUclips videos need more edits and some breaks in content to absorb the information. Appreciate you and hope to see more!
Wouldn't Baptiste's Ult also combo well with Tac Visor?
Yes, it's also a great combo. I forgot to mention it in the video because Baptiste is just not great in current meta and you barely ever see him!
well placed baptiste ult= heaven for hitscan dps
@@puntybrah I wonder if it works with beams. A Baptiste put the window in front of my ulting Moira once.
@@PizzaTime727 it doesnt
How to do 1v1 against Genji? Run off and he closes up to you in a flash. Fight and he out damages you in close range. Not to mention hard to hit hitbox/agility and deflect mind game.
Poke genji at long to mid range often to dissuade him from feeling like he has enough hp to go in. Just pepper him whenever you see him and he will spend much more time running away than he’d like.
Shoot genji if he tries to attack your supports, giving him a time limit before he dies to complete his kill or run.
When he attacks you by surprise, use healing field and do the safety dance. This dance is where you use sprint to run around in extremely short circles while you stall for team help. You probably can’t beat him if he surprises you.
Finally, if he deflects you can use the rockets splash damage to shoot the ground or wall near him to still do damage or kill him. Also, in some games you can save your ult for genji blade. He will likely try to kill support with blade, but cannot if you have tactical visor shooting him. He can deflect this, but then he’s just wasting his ult, and your supports are free.
Hope this helped
Soldier vs Genji is a hard matchup right now, especially cuz genji is really strong. You wanna keep your distance at all times and don't let him get close. Force deflects and dashes early. If he gets into a range where he can dash you and he has not used deflect yet, you won't be able to win the 1v1 in most cases.
Report all genji players to get him nerfed
mid range trick genji, fire first and most likely he will deflect while deflecting get closer and plant your biotic field to heal, once his deflect ends helix rocket first and then finish him off.
Can we have a guide for the good high ground positions with the rocket jump?
Will look into it for future videos, wanna get a few other guides and tutorials out first, thanks for the suggestion!
Me and my mate use baptiste and soldier ult together. Double dmg
Helix rocket can reload cancel
Can we get a showcase of your Soldier controller settings please.
U dont need his sttings use ur own and learn to control not to high not to low
Which to soujin better pick
What settings are you using? DPI, ingame sensitivity, cm/360?
2.6 ingame 1600 dpi rn, all my stats are on my stream!
Do you recommend aim training?
What is the code for the training map in this video?
W2WM7
Anyone got tips for Xbox players?
Not 50% damage reduction, 2.5 times
how can i get the mode ?
I did this because my team had more slightly more kills then me and I got 14 deaths using Soldier 76
One thing u didnt mention (iirc) is that you cannot hit headshots in ur ult, it will always body shot, therefore, you dont always want to pop visor when u get nano'd for instance, because w/o the visor u can kill a tank fast due to headshots.
Besides that, very good Guide, thanks a ton!
actually you can now in OW2
@@AlexDerrEchte LULW .. nvm me then.
Nah that's changed, you do more damage aiming at head
You can now, which means your going to get a lot more reward for actually aiming while visoring rather than monke see monke shoot
i use him to flank
What is the training map in this video? Please reply.
These are the 4 main maps I use, the main one in the video are 1 and 3. Aim 1 48701 | Aim 2 P3MY0 | Aim 3 W2WM7 | Aim 4 MW3MH
@@MetroOW How do you use those maps? Just create it using custom?
@@xuntouchablex6879 Yes, improt the game code in a custom game and start the map!

Your tracking is lowkey nuts. I'm great at flicking shotting but i can't track for shit.
I'm the completely opposite, great tracking and garbage flicks haha
Did you get this level of aim from playing in game or did you use external aim trainers?? Good video btw!
Mostly ingame, some aim training but 90% playing the game! Thanks man. :)
@@MetroOW I just find aim trainers incredibly boring😭😭, do you reckon it’s possible to achieve your level of aim without them? Ty for the fast response!
@@Outpostbeta Yes 100% u can do it without aim trainers
I got 30 eliminated and 8.5k damage after watching this
i’m new to overwatch and you helping me understand this game thankyou
what is your sensitivity for soldier76?
1600 dpi 2.6 ingame
@@MetroOW thanks!
Hey I play 76 and recently I feel like I am in elo hell for some reason. I average 38% weapon accuray and I 7/10 get most damge in game and have good util managment but from some reason I cant go to the next level its weird any tips anyone?
When I chased these numbers like damage or weapon accuracy I found that it forced some bad habits - I would rather shoot at tanks as they are easier to hit for more damage and to pad up accuracy. I therefore missed opportunities to make some flanks or pressure enemy healers. It may take several seconds to reposition and you will hit only 20% bullets on that pesky Mercy - and you may not even kill her as she flies around. But if you pressure her out of combat you do immensely more compared to shooting at Reinhardt as he is constantly healed by said Mercy from behind and actually pushing the payload. In the first scenario you maybe did 150 damage in 15 seconds with low accuracy compared to second scenario with 800 damage with high accuracy.
Now there are times where engaging in these types of fights is good - especially in defense or if you are the one pushing payload. You can pressure tanks and forcing supports to tunnel vision making them more vulnerable to your teammate diving them. But it is just one tool in the toolkit. Do not overestimate stats.
your tracking looks damn nice in some situations :P
recently tried overwatch again, but i just cant do it anymore haha
used to be mediocre at least on soldier, now i am just shit haha, too old, too bad, not used to play shooters infront of my 48" lg oled :D
in arpgs and mmos np, in shooters i am not used to it (yet?) :D
time to practice, age does not matter (it does but only to an extend practice can overcome it) :)
Ty for the guide but why is your ping so high?
I play on NA from Europe mostly.
@@MetroOW that so cool!! Is there any reason you choose to play in this interesting way?
Another tip for soldier's ultimate: when possible, activate soldier ult away from enemy sightlines and wait a second before engaging. This makes it more difficult for enemies to see where your're coming from during the 1 second ult activation time.
thats just stupid, the rigth way to use the ult is flanking or shooting with the loaded rifle and before the ammo drops to 0 throw the ult and finish the enemies
@Carlos González depends on the situation. If you do this, you become everyone's target before the ult is ready
@@Canteaus thats just stupid i already told ya my guy
@Carlos González you thinking that flanking in every situation is the only way to use this ult is stupid you tard. Dunno why you're commenting when you only live to hear half of your hero's ult voice line before getting dropped.
@@Canteaus no nigga
Bro don’t even need the ultimate 💀
is metro quitting? i was in his stream and he said he might quit :(
hopefully
He always blaming everybody when he dies lol ither than that not bad
map codes?
All in the new aim guide Video (releasing today)
Private lessons?
Not doing any atm, might in the future but too busy. Can always come by on stream to ask any questions though!
why is ur ping so high is that normal , ?
I play on NA from Europe, so yea 120 is around normal for that, a bit of a handicap but works :)
what is that ping
I play on NA from EU, it's not that bad, you should give it a try :)
@@MetroOW now I will
I find it funny that soldier is seen as the simple cod character yet he’s probably most complex then half the other dps characters .
alright bro…
@@nooptiui alright sis ….
7:30 screamer💀
And this sounds offensive😠
Why would you play soldier tho
AIM MOST INPORTANT Xd
how no recoil
practice
T500? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
there is no point practising aim in a hypermobility game with healers. AIm training works for csgo when if you have line of sight, aim will make a huge difference in who gets the accurate shot off first
Jumping every 1 second is definitely not how to play soldier. One should first fix the apparent weaknesses in thier gameplay before giving people advice.
kekw
you have 5000 hours on soldier and still dont know how to do the high level shit??? ill teach you a secret move. but you gotta pay me some. i dont teach everyone my secret. i can teach you 2 secrets.
When do stream ?
My schedule is all over the place atm, should be live later today!

Play dbd again

I would also say that a well coordinated emp and visor is amazing. As it cancels not only there abilities but all counter ults as well. When well timed, can lead to an easy 4-5k
