how do you counter hawkeye in ranked???

[Zechariah]

this guy singlehandedly carrying every match feels like theres nothing you can do. if his team has a brain they just stack on him while he 1shots you every damn single time

Flank

He squishy. Starlord melts him. I got ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ at once in ranked as Starlord for not just decimating his life.

Flank him, there's a lot of different ways to get around maps and come at people from the backs and/or sides.

Find a way that's not being used by their team and keeps you hidden while using it.

Your team can also have them distracted their team away from you while you use the flanking route.

Just so you know, I am happy you confirmed my biases.

Outside of quickplay? Co-ordinated dive comp all jumping on him at the same time; even with both healers trying to keep him up and tanks trying to absorb blows, they can't stop Venom, Captain America/Hulk, Winter Soldier, Spider-Man, Jeff (speed boost bubbles enabling the divers), and Mantis (damage boost enabling divers) tearing him apart.

Barrier tanks give counter-snipers a chance to pick him off; any time he tries to go for an instakill, that's a chance for your own sniper to get him. It sucks, but meta answering meta is pretty standard in a game's early life.

A great Spider-Man might not be able to kill him if he's getting supported, but he can certainly keep the Hawkeye constantly nervous and distracted, unable to focus on burning down whoever is approaching the objective; you don't actually need to kill ANYONE, you just need to capture the objective. And, for obvious reasons, Hawkeye alone is not great at directly contesting.

How Hawkeye works:

i use him: got gangbanged by 2 flankers in the back + 2 tank on the front, instadead.

others use him: he get permaprotected by a healer + atleast 1 high iq backupper and proceed to slay the whole match.

Simple as that lmao

PS: That's ok tho, idc.
