It's been a while since I did any online gaming with the dMw, I've forgotten what a blast it can be.

 I do like a challenge though so spiced things up by inadvertently pulling out my microphone lead from my PC, effectively muting myself. Then I bound both fire and the shift alt ability to my main mouse button. This resulted in me running about like a pillock with Torbjorn unable to either fire a gun or drop a turret. One these 'minor' issues were addressed I was able to settle down to my usual level of utterly unremarkable ability.

I do need to learn more than one character though, Lucio only goes so far. I'm wondering which are the simplest DPS classes for a rank newbie?

I would have a go with Soldier 76.

His kit is most like other FPS games, I will run you through it briefly here (using default key bindings).



Weapon - Assault Rifle. Automatic fire. Good at close range. Has weapon spread, over long range against small targets it is better to burst fire. Up close don't worry just let rip.

Shift - Sprint, no cooldown. Gives him great mobility. Can get in and out of situations better than most other characters.

E - Health pack. Area of affect heal. Great for healing not only yourself but also your team!

Q (ULTIMATE) - Tactical Visor - Auto-aim huge damage. Otherwise known as 'press Q to win'. The trick with this is to get yourself somewhere where the enemy can't hide from it. If you have line of sight, you will hit them (multiple enemies at once possible). Try to use this from high ground or behind your enemies. Be aware of shields (Reinheardt for example) as they can block the damage from hitting the enemies.



His kit is fairly simple to use. Overwatch is one of those games where there is a skill ceiling for each hero, some start simple and actually learning their kit doesn't take long - the differences then become between how well you follow the game, how well your team works in fights, and so on. Other heroes have a higher skill ceiling and take more time to learn. Start with the basic heroes with Soldier 76 and work up!
