It is almost laughably effective to combine McCree and Lúcio in Overwatch. Check out the video to see what happens.
McCree and Lúcio – “High Noon” in Fast Forward
The art in Overwatch often lies in combining the various abilities of the 21 characters in such a way that the effects are devastating. Usually, it makes sense to combine a tank with an offensive hero. However, it can also be done differently, as shown by the YouTuber HLCR with his girlfriend Digo. They set out to combine abilities that one rarely encounters in the game: Lúcio’s Crossfade together with McCree’s Gunslinger.
What exactly is happening there? McCree’s ultimate ability “Gunslinger” ensures that all enemies McCree can see are slowly targeted. If this process succeeds, McCree can eliminate all enemies with a precise headshot. The downside: During the preparation time of Gunslinger, McCree moves very slowly, giving opponents the opportunity to take cover or eliminate the cowboy early. The two players compensate for this disadvantage with Lúcio. Thanks to Crossfade, McCree receives a speed buff that is further enhanced with Amp It Up. This allows McCree to move at more than full speed even during the preparation time of Gunslinger.
Few players expect a combination of these two abilities. This is also evident in the reactions of the opposing teams, who are hopelessly overwhelmed by a turbo McCree and desperately try to take cover somewhere, which more than once proves to be in vain.
Similar combinations can also be created with all other heroes that also have an ultimate that slows them down. Especially Reaper and Roadhog can bulldoze across the battlefield when a Lúcio is helping them.
Which combinations in Overwatch also turn out to be devastating, our contributor summarized in his post.
