After 125 hours on Junker Queen, I have to say... Random Junkrat traps are the actual hard counter. The knockback from his primary also messes with her axe and melee and puts me in bad spots. Though Hanjo really can be a pain as well if they use their mobility well. For her ult I think it's better to think of it as a dive tool, and if you hit a couple of people you have sustain for a while when they have to avoid the rest of your team to not die. Plus, them turning around at you helps your team so much, so ending up in the back of their team can really be huge when you have the bleeds rolling and don't need pocketing.
JQ is definitely the most fun tank. My last game on her I ulted to point, cause we were in overtime, won a 1v4, flipped the point and won as the match. I don’t think any other tank could’ve done it
@@MoonlightBrillance Probably the most accurate soldier player I've heard of, at least a bad one since they never try new characters and use him as a crutch
You described queen perfectly, win or lose she’s so fun and it’s because everything she does feels so good, just howled a team? Bask in the “thank you” spam, just landed a knife swing combo? Now you feel like steph behind the line
I was expecting downsides like with Dva or Doom, but I'm pleasantly surprised to see JQ have barely any drawbacks. I'll definitely have to play her with the new patch out for her
I really want to play as her and really get into her but my first time playing JQ i was pretty much trash talked after the loss so i just never tried her again
hey man just found your content today I love the chiller vibe compared to other 20 hour challenges. Wondering if you've ever considered one for wrecking ball especially since he's at a very bad state rn?

@@TRUSTeTMguest I do my best to reply to every comment on all of my channels. Can be exhausting but since not everyone comes to twitch stream its my only way to interact with you guys :)
@@TRUSTeTMguest its okay friend I've been streaming everyday but Monday on youtube as well if you like to drop in and say hi sometime normally live after 3-4pm cst
I'm no Overwatch pro, but I felt like Queen is a great tank to solo because it seems like she doesn't need a healer focusing her, while she obviously benefits from this, even the slightest of heals can keep her alive if her abilities are well managed and well timed. The only big counters for Queen I've had were Rein and Junkrat, especially his random traps, if you're caught, you're dead, and Reinhardt can just spam m1 until you're dead, even if most are too busy using shield.
I main both doom and junker queen and both those vids have really helped me correct some of my mistakes - hit endorsement level 4 today because of them :)
Just found your channel as I’m getting back into Overwatch after not playing for years. Some of these queen tips you’ve said will help out when I play her again. Also did anyone else start singing along with Dabi as he started singing Payphone or was it just me? 🤣
@@RauKnowsRivals Ty my friend. I haven’t played JQ since using her to unlock Ram after the 30 or so games but after watching this it’s making me want to play her again. Shout-out to you and Dabi my guy, made my night just seeing two homies being goofy at together!
I started playing queen just before she got that buff, and she was so fun to play then. Then she got a buff, even more fun to play but I had less fun playing her if that made sense and haven’t played her very much since. Time to go back to her after this video
Hope you enjoyed! Plan on every weekend a new one till all the heroes are done :) also will redo some heroes if they get big reworks like hog and sombra
@@RauKnowsRivals I definitely enjoyed them! I’m excited for the Illari one! I’ve been playing since OW1 beta so I’ve learned a few things here and there but the little tips in skill usage and placement helped a ton!
Love the content❤ can’t wait to see more, I think you should try Orisa next, she just seems so op and feels like you own the lobby😊 (edit, Made the comment before watching the entire video lol,)❤
Lots of super helpful info in this video and as someone wanting to learn to maximize Queen, it was great information! You've definitely earned a sub and I can't wait to see what else you bring in the future!
Hit masters 1 tricking queen, she gets SOO much value out of her knives! Also I would recommend meleeing tiny bit less, the bleed doesn't stack with itself
Do you have tips for solo queue because today I got 3 games in a row where atleast one of my supports had no idea what they were doing? For example, on Rialto I was Sigma in the begining and I saw my ana was hitting a flank while their team was rush and rolled her before I could peel and through out the rest of the game she was constantly flanking barely healing or getting kill confirms. Is there a way to avoid this or do I have to accept it is what it is?
my duo is a queen main, i ALWAYS play ana with them and go nanopage. with queen already doing plenty damage with rampage its pretty op. 80% of the time it gets play. def rec if you havent
I'm a brand new player. I have been playing for about 4 days and a little under 20 hours. After going on a few dates with Juno, Roadhog and Widowmaker (10-15 games each) and first dates with a few others, I really found that JQ is the gal I wanna give my varsity jacket to. My question is this. As a console player, what's the best way to get a situational awareness on my own team? So often I feel like my team is right behind me as I charge, only to find them all hanging back. And obviously the best answer is to communicate on mic, but alas, no mic for me. So do I stick back at first and be patient? Or do I just do my thing and hope for the best? Or something else entirely?
Its tough but just tons of play time with a goal in mind that you wanna improve on. Wether its always knowing you supports line of sights or tracking an ability on the enemy team. Overwatch is a really tough game for a new player the key is not getting overwhelmed and work on 1-2 things at a time max. TONS of good gamesense guides out there and vod reviews you can watch. Spilo has really good content when it comes to learning through watching coaching/vods
I have question about bastion reaper, I seem to struggle a lot against them bcuz of the zarya buffs and they just melt me. Just play corners more and shout out? Is that good advice
JQ actually counters bastion! Just play corners and try to knife him in for axe any time he gets out of turret. Reaper you just have to hit your shots. JQ is a slim hitbox so you can beat him in the 1v1 if you use your cooldowns right
I feel like doim 20 hour Junkrat would be a different experince due to his grenade launcher and his explosive pad. (Also I want to see this since he's my main)
I love playing Queen when I play tank from time to time .. One of the biggest flaws of me personally on tank is target prioritization. Also her name is pronounced E-Lar-E
Depends on the language! In her origin language Quechua it’s IL-Yar-E with just a little L sound. In Spanish which is closely related it’s E-Yar-e you don’t really say the L
@@RauKnowsRivals Yeah Ofc But The way I was told by everyone was that but hey you're the one who's gonna be Asserting Dominance with her so call her whatever you want ( some people call her starwars) 😂😂
For me jq did NOT work for me on console but I’ve been playing her for about a week on pc and she feels amazing. Aiming on controller with jq is a nightmare
i never play queen but i know shes fun and she might be a good sec tank but i wont need it cuz 1 tank but shes a very good swap for my doom when i finally go into comp i also find it fun to play against her which is quite rare when orisa is always in a game
I keep having to tell people, there is no such thing as counter picking. if you think they counter you, you having played against them enough to learn how to play against them because you switch when you get a little fight back. play what you know and what you like. learn it, then if you want to play something or someone else, do it and learn them. junker Queen has a shotgun right. windowmaker out range her right. WRONG!!! you give her the knife and if she try to run away you knife her again then AXE her a question "how does death feel" all you have to do is get Jagged blade to land then wait 2 to 3 seconds then pull it. by the time she get to wherever she is trying to run to, Jagged Blade is ready to go again.
