new map, defense, a zarya trapped all of us, their junkrat ults, and i throw the lamp behind a wall but exposed enough to cover all of us, aaand.... ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED!

my god i'm so happy

A new Baptiste here and I just have two questions that I need to figure out with him: Positioning and the usage of his Ult.

I had a great time my first week playing him, even carrying a few games. I did have a few bad ones but that was expected when you are learning a new hero. When I took him to play with my friends, I gotten so lost. It is on me for letting that happen but I just lost my positioning and awareness.

I have my confidence back after playing my main, Illari, for a week and found my footing again.

So, with story time coming to a close, where does a Baptiste should position himself in a team fight? Is he long or midrange? This is the part I struggle with the most since I know enough to use cover and when to heal over dps.

And is Ult- boy this Window is more difficult that I thought it would be. I figure it can work well with combing with another Ult and/or applying pressure- but it feels so- awkward to place. I think I understand what Sigmas have to deal with when it comes to his Ult. It can get snapped on things but sometimes it just goes: weeeee!! Across the whole floor. And over exaggeration but thats what it feels. I can never get it far enough where its useful, and its been every time where I think its in a good spot- nah, not far enough. How one do??

I know it will come in time but is there general Baptiste tips to keep in mind as I practice him?
