Tips and Tricks
PLAYSTYLE AND STRENGTHS
Mobility: His L-Shift (Vantage Connection) lets him zip around the map with a grappling hook, giving him quick escapes or high-ground advantages.
Turret Power: His E (Culling Turret) lets him set up a stationary turret that deals insane damage and blocks incoming attacks from the front. It’s great for holding choke points or defending objectives.
Smoke Grenade: His RMB (Scourge Grenade) throws a smoke bomb that blocks enemy vision and makes him leap backward, perfect for disengaging or confusing enemies.
Passive Tracking: His passive (Warrior’s Gaze) lets him see enemies through walls for 3 seconds after they leave his line of sight, making it easier to chase them down or avoid flanks.
Versatile Weapons: His left-click (Adjudication) is an automatic rifle perfect for mid-to-long range fights, while his right-click (Deliverance) is a shotgun that wrecks enemies up close.
Ultimate Destruction: His Q (Final Judgement) turns him into a walking arsenal with dual gatling guns and a missile launcher, dealing massive AoE damage for 10 seconds. It’s a game-changer in team fights.
WEAKNESSES
Low Health: With only 275 HP, The Punisher is squishy and can get taken out fast if caught out of position.
Cooldown Reliant: His E (Culling Turret) and L-Shift (Vantage Connection) have long cooldowns, so if you waste them, you’re stuck without key tools.
Weak to Flankers: Heroes like Spider-Man or Black Widow can easily dive him and take him out before he can react.
Ultimate Slowdown: During his Q (Final Judgement), he moves slower, making him an easy target if he’s not careful with positioning.
Turret Vulnerability: While using his E (Culling Turret), he’s stationary and vulnerable to attacks from behind or flanks.
