If you hear those horns blare, it’s time to go in.

Rally is Brigitte’s ultimate and it offers her a great utility in leading a team push. EFFECT: Bonus Runspeed (Brigitte Only)/ 150 Armor to all nearby allies (and herself).The Armor on Overheal is a great way to mitigate some damage before it comes in.

It’ll be useful for clutch heals on a critically wounded teammate or even preventatively if you anticipate an ally is going to eat a huge chunk of damage. The ability uses a Zenyatta Orb style soft-lock, so it’s easy to fling at allies. Repair Pack is a huge burst heal on a fairly short cooldown.

HEAL: 150 HP/Up to 75 Armor on Overheal (5S Duration).

The versatility of this move is incredible and I can’t wait to see all the clutch boops players will be undoubtedly pulling off with it. Using it, you can extend your flail an insane 20 meters and knock an enemy back. Whip Shot is my favorite ability in Brigitte’s kit. The Bash can also be used in mid-air to cover short distances and it plays a significant role as part of the combos we’ll be discussing. This move allows her to shut down all sorts of dives, particularly against characters like Genji and Tracer who would be looking to pick off a pesky support. Shield Bash is one of the defining features of Brigitte.

You won’t be able to just dive Brigitte and blow her up like you would most other healers, she’s got plenty of effective HP to play with due to Barrier Shield. We’ll talk about that a bit more later.īrigitte’s basically got a mini Reinhardt shield that is primarily designed for protecting herself, but she can use it to help her bodyblock something for a teammate. The damage on her flail is solid enough, especially when it comes to dealing with the squishier flanking characters who will look to dive her, but the real secret to success will be the various melee cancel combos that can be pulled off with her Rocket Flail to chain together bursts of damage. Brigitte wields an extendable flail which can strike enemies up to five meters away and she can hit multiple enemies with each swing.
