Playstyle

Psylocke excels at disrupting backlines. However she isn't just a diver, Psylockes strongest trait is arguably her Off-angling capabilties. Holding an Off-angle preventing space, and diving when the map and the fight allows you to is where Psylocke excels. Rinse and repeat this scenario Flank > Off-angle > Farm Cooldowns > Flank. But keep in mind sometimes Psylocke just can't flank. Psylocke sometimes has to stay near her team peeling, and poking at tanks. Psylocke is a very versatile hero so keep that versatility. Shoot at divers, hold your space, and keep your ults smalled and controlled. Her ultimate is either a fight winner or at max value a solo ult. The better the players the less people you want in your ult.

Your primary damage comes from landing direct hits with your rockets. In a team fight, prioritize staying airborne to make yourself a harder target to hit.

Pro Tips

  • Do not use your dash for securing kills. Save your dash for disengaging after a kill. Your best value for Psylocke is staying alive, her up time is the best in the game, so being alive to keep pressure is better then trading a kill evertime.
  • Psylocke is best at close to midrange. Stay near a 15 Meter Range to get the most damage.
  • Psylockes Alternate Fire ( WING SHURIKEN ) Is a projectile, lead this shot to try to secure more pellets hit.
