Baptiste Difficulty - Hard

Relative to all Overwatch 2 heroes, Baptiste is Hard to be effective with.

We rank Baptiste as a "Hard" Hero because he requires precision aim, as well as time to get used to his uniqueness. His primary fire, which requires accurate aim, is the only three-round burst rifle in the game. While his healing projectiles don't have to be a direct hit to heal teammates, their slow projectile speed takes some getting used to.

Baptiste Tier Rating - A-tier

We rate Baptiste as a A-tier Support hero in the current Overwatch 2 meta (among possible tiers of S, A, B, C, and D).

If you look at the top 500 leader boards for Support, you'll see a lot of Baptiste. Not only can he be a fantastic healer capable of burst healing, but he can also deal lots of consistent damage.

Beyond this, his Immortality Field and Regenerative Burst abilities can save himself or others from otherwise certain death.
