Reaper Tier Rating - C-tier

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

Reaper can be a very good pick at lower ranks where you can easily get close to enemies and take them out quickly with him. However, professional and high-ranked players are too good to allow Reaper to get close to them consistently. Even if you do get close to enemies as Reaper, most of the meta Heroes have abilities to quickly get away from you, knock you away, or otherwise hurt your effectiveness.
