Utility before ego peeks

Flash, smoke, or drone before you wide-swing. Solo hero plays look cool in clips; coordinated utility wins streaks.

Learn one agent or role deeply

Spreading across every character slows improvement. Pick one kit in Overwatch, learn its cooldown rhythm, and master two maps before you expand.

Crosshair placement is free ELO

Keep your aim at head height on common angles. In Overwatch, the first bullet often decides the duel — pre-aim beats flicking after you see the enemy.
