We all know how Overwatch can be a difficult game to overcome. But, believe it or not, you are not alone – almost everyone in the community feels the same way. Heck, even pros have their fair share of ups and downs. The most important thing to keep in mind is that you can always improve – and it is up to you when you would like to get started.

With that said, we have compiled a list of tricks that can help you obtain a winning streak in Overwatch. Of course, the success of these tricks largely depends on how well you apply them in the battlefield. Still, the main goal for these tricks is to help you build confidence, which will definitely help you moving forward.

Learn At Least One Hero of Each Class

This is the part where you need to be extremely flexible. Sure, you can master Genji and use him every now and then. But is this actually the best approach? And if you think it is, then ask yourself: “Why do I keep losing anyway?” Until you have reached the upper echelon of Overwatch gaming, your best move is to focus on balance as you figure out a team’s composition. Luckily for you, the game is capable of reminding you which role to fill out. You will know exactly when you need to go with a support character over a DPS hero.

Be In the Winning Mentality

No matter how skilled you can be, your chance of winning games is influenced by your way of thinking. You see, in Overwatch, your skills can only do so much. It is the mentality in you that will help you reach greater heights. If your team loses a fight, let it be – you do not have to be outraged by it. Enable your mind to think of winning the game, so your reflexes are fluid. What is more, having this mentality allows you to be friendly towards your teammates. Being toxic will not help you.

Don’t Go Out Alone

The problem with most rookie players is that they think so highly of themselves. Overwatch is a game that needs to be played as a team. That is why you need to fight alongside your teammates, not forcing yourself to go out alone and fight. You need them to win a push or defend a point. And since this is a team, you need to stick together. The beauty of this game is that your abilities are all designed to excel if, and only if, they are used in tandem with your teammates.

Don’t Let a Bad Game Eat You Up

Of course, there will be days when winning is not going to happen. You will definitely see yourself in a losing streak. Sometimes, if you feel like you have had more than enough of bad games throughout the day, you might just want to take a pause. Yes, that is right – simply take a break. You do not have to take things seriously. Do not let a bad game ruin the experience. At the end of the day, Overwatch is meant to be enjoyed. Even pro players know that. And believe it or not, players who tend to simply enjoy each match are more likely to win than those who do not.
