Cassidy Difficulty - Hard

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

As a hitscan Hero with a relatively slow rate of semi-automatic fire and no aim down sights ability, you better make your shots count with Cassidy.

Cassidy players also must be very careful with their positioning and depend on their Supports, as his mobility is relatively limited.

Cassidy Tier Rating - A-tier

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

Cassidy's ability to two-shot headshot most Supports and Damage Heroes makes him a lethal pick for Overwatch 2 players with elite aim. The hindering effect of his Magnetic Grenade can also be an incredible counter against more mobile Heroes.

Combat Roll also helps you to stay alive against dive Heroes. The reduced damage taken during it can even allow you to survive Tracer's Pulse Bomb.

If you don't have the aiming skills for Cassidy, Sojourn and Soldier: 76 can be easier Heroes to output consistent damage with from mid to long range.
