So in quick play these days just about every other matchup the other "defense team" has 2 Tjorbs, a bastion, usually a symmetra and then a Reinhardt + something else (honzo) and it just locks down the points ridiculously, kinda frustrating, quick play usually lacks the team cohesion to break thru or they will play characters that just dont really work against that above combo and get wiped over and over again. Torb is rough not just because of the turret, but his bolt gun is really effective, particularly with molten core. He's a strong character even without the turrents.

any tips ?


how do you guys handle this, seems OP at the moment for some maps. (anubis , volskaya )

Just try your best to handle the situation I guess.

It seems like the instant you try to offer any sort of verbal help to your team, and tell them what they need to do, or who they need to play to counter those characters, they take offense to it.

The problem is that it requires actual team work to beat strategies like this
It's not overpowered at all. A little bit of team work steam rolls over crappy Bastion/Torb compositions.

Hanzo and Pharah are extremely good here

You need to get your team to break Reinhardt's shield
His shield is so big that you can use corners in a way where you can hit him but Bastion/Torb can't hit you

You can also get behind with Genji
Or you can shoot Symmetra balls through Reinhardt's shield and hit Bastion


Hanzo and Pharah can just destroy Bastion/Torb from any distance if there is no Reinhardt shield

Junkrat and Pharah are pretty good vs Torb
Also Genji and Winston are pretty good imo vs this kind of comp because you can create space for your team while the enemy deal with you.
