Coming here from TF2, who to look at?

[Server Jester]

I wasnt much of an OW player, at the most I toyed around in 1 as Roadhog and Junkrat then McCree and Zenyatta, but I have 5k hours in TF2 despite not playing it in years.

Yesterday was my first day playing and I mostly played Punisher until I started mostly playing Starlord. Who else should I take a gander at? I already know SG is the Junkrat equivalent and thus the closest to Demoman

[Kyutaru]

Peni Parker. Kind of a slightly tanky tanker that creates mine fields.

[irongamer683]

just play peni like demoman, works alright for me

[Server Jester]

Not asking specifically for Demoman equivalents more so heros that a TF2 player would be more comfortable with. I can see that Scout mains would like Starlord for example

[googleman81]

Closest 1:1 would be Sniper/Black Widow, but she's kinda trash. Peni would be more like the Engineer rather than Demo. Rocket is kinda like the Medic, but less Austrian, I think. One of the tanks would be the Heavy, except most tanks don't shoot.

Keep in mind, this game, when it functions half well, no tech issues or hacks and your team isn't trying to switch on an extra brain cell, watching Tiktoks or having fun being training/EOMM AI, is pretty clustered, meaning you got either a mobile objective to move along with or areas that need to be controlled and there's no other modes to pick and maps are pretty limited, so your best bet would be to figure out where the health pickups are, so you don't have to rely on healers and then pick something you're comfortable with and be flexible enough to switch it around, because you might have to.
There's 19 DPS class characters and 16 of the other two classes combined, so kids will be crying about nobody choosing tank or healer.

Takeaway: Don't play Black Widow and be prepared to get hated on for picking Batman, I mean Moon Knight.

Who do you main in TF2?

I maned Heavy and Medic. Here I prefer Venom and Jeff. With a dash of Punisher and Iron Man.

Mind you, this game has a VERY different feel to TF2. You are comparing cake and pie here.

[Yakub]

i don't think you could compare this game to tf2 except in the hero shooter aspect. Its not even first person

[Rix]

go back

Last time I played it was mostly Demo, Medic, and Sniper if i wanted to be braindead. Soldier and Scout as lesser mains.

For more info for the little time I played OW I mostly was playing McCree (Winter Soldier) Zenyatta (Warlock?), and Roadhog (uhhhh)

Are the sniperbots gone

[X-Psibian]

Try out Capt America, hes my favorite Tank thus far.

[Shifue]

I didn't really play OW but I would suggest just going to practice mode and feeling out all of them. Just remember their are sub classes in each of the 3 classes and move from there. I know my favorites right now are as follows.
vanguard- dr. strange,peni parker and groot
Duelist- moon knight, punisher,wolverine, magick,psylocke, and squirrel girl
strategist- Rocket,cloak and dagger, and jeff

From the classes you said, i'd suggest

Demoman - Squirrel Girl, Wolverine (Melee demo build)
Medic - basically all strategists, but specifically Adam Warlock, Mantis, Invisible Woman
Sniper - Black Widow, Hawkeye, and Hela
Soldier - Iron man, magneto
Scout - Starlord, Iron fist, and Magik

Can't really compare TF2 to MR.

TF2 have classes and load-outs that affect how you play.

MR have fixed characters load-outs.

[doofus0510]

honestly it's not a one-to-one but squirrel girl plays similar to junkrat(without the mine jumping sadly)
