5 best Overwatch 2 heroes to duo with Genji

sportskeeda.com:

Blizzard’s renowned FPS title Overwatch 2 has three classes of heroes - Damage, Tank, and Support. Half samurai and half cyborg, Genji is a Damage hero from Japan. Using forged shurikens and an ōdachi (Samurai greatsword) as his primary weapons, this hero is formidable at close range and can be equally dangerous from a distance.

Being a Damage class hero, Genji receives a lower HP bar at 200 health points. This is compensated by his ability, Deflect, where he uses his ōdachi to deflect oncoming projectiles. However, with good Supports on deck or combining his Dragonblade with other heroes’ ultimates, this Overwatch 2 hero can be dangerously effective.

Overwatch 2's Japanese Samurai uses shurikens for his Fire (default left-click) and Alt-Fire (default right-click) abilities, with the first option triggering three successive throws in a narrower spread and the latter executing three together in a wider spread.

This hero also comes with a passive known as Cyber-Agility, where he can scale walls vertically and double jump. Along with his other abilities, such as Swift strike, a dash-like ability, and his ultimate, where he uses his ōdachi to its full capacity, his kit makes duo-ing an intimidating force.

Mei is another Damage hero in Overwatch 2 that utilizes an Endothermic Blaster, which sprays ice onto enemies, damaging and slowing them down. She can also utilize her ultimate, Blizzard, which freezes enemies and damages them in a fixed Area of Effect (AoE). Combining these with Genji’s fast and high-damage output will offer easy pickings.

Mei’s ability to self-heal means staying on the field longer and supporting Genji’s aggressive pushes. Her being a Damage hero means there will be no hindrance to the team’s composition,
