reviewed 19 Jul 2026A 5,000-health tank at 540 movement speed, the slowest on the roster, who commits to a position and stays there.
Early game
Walk to the position he intends to hold and start holding it, because at 540 speed any rotation costs more time than the fight will last.
Positioning
On the objective rather than near it, since he cannot arrive late and cannot leave early; where he stands at the start is roughly where he stays.
Using your Super
The Super is what turns a stationary body into a moving one, so spend it on the push rather than on defending ground he was already holding.
Common mistakes
- Rotating across the map and arriving after the fight has ended
- Chasing a fleeing brawler he has no chance of catching
- Standing away from cover with a 2.2-second reload and no way to disengage
- Modes with one fixed point he can park on for the whole match
- Defensive setups where he never has to cross the map
- Chokes, where a body that will not move is exactly what is needed
