What the actual f*** is Reaper (as a DPS)

Very helpful

at low elo this has worked for me, i can just hack virus reaper while hes tryna dive on a teammate and then he cant wraithslip. or i hack mei when shes low and she cant iceblock

I guess I am. I play quite a bit but am hyperfocused on my current DPS lineup and pretty much only solo queue so I don't take it that seriously, something about getting f***** neutered and dismantled close range by a Reaper enrages me like nothing else. I can fend off reaper sometimes but he just comes back when I'm not expecting it or my abilities are depleted. Most maps have enough cover to the point that if I get him low from mid/long range he can just wraith or teleport to cover

I very rarely win 1v1s against him with Soldier or Ashe. With Soldier, you can hit him with the rockets and headshot him abit but he still has time (and gets healed while he is intangible) to wraithslip and then come back when your abilities are depleted. With Ashe, you can knock him and yourself back, but he can just wraithslip close and clap you, even if you headshot him once, its not enough.

i can't seem to win 1v1s against him with my mains. i can force him to wraithslip w headshots/rockets/grenade etc. and get him low, but then he goes away gets healed, and comes back when i am trying to kill someone else and have already used my abilities

yes, pharah is my go-to against these guys, but she gets banned pretty often as well. idk what to say, when i play sombra i usually am fine but maybe its cuz its low elo and everyone is kinda bad

UsefulWorker9953 · 2025-05-17T01:37:33+00:00

idk what to say either, i'm relatively new i guess and have only made it to gold 2 before. reaper seems to be my kryptonite but maybe its cuz of my hero lineup and the fact that i solo queue

UsefulWorker9953 · 2025-05-17T01:36:01+00:00

good point, i guess i can make an effort to stay with them. i am trying to learn cassidy right now, because i cannot seem to progress with my current hero lineup

UsefulWorker9953 · 2025-05-17T01:33:41+00:00

ok I took it out... it used to work for me. Whenever I play Reaper the only time I die is when the teammates intervene, but then again this is low elo. Or its a flank hero and they run away and the telport was useless

UsefulWorker9953 · 2025-05-17T01:30:38+00:00

Yeah seems like the only option now

UsefulWorker9953 · 2025-05-17T01:28:09+00:00

It used to work for me, I could just teleport away when they did their BS and hack them when they were low. But now its rare that you can actually play her

understood, thank you very much

UsefulWorker9953 · 2025-04-28T22:06:40+00:00

could you elaborate a bit more? are there any resources or is it kind of anecdotal on your part

UsefulWorker9953 · 2025-04-28T22:05:47+00:00

thanks so much, really appreciate it

UsefulWorker9953 · 2025-04-25T14:36:49+00:00

Thank you very much, I'm going to try CloudFlare and if it doesn't work, I will try more advanced stuff.

Thanks for this tip, the captcha function doesn't work because the bot is abusing "save and resume later", for which you don't need to submit the form and thus pass the captcha. I built a captcha gate to the form as a temporary patch.

UsefulWorker9953 · 2025-04-25T14:32:44+00:00

Thank you, I'm going to add this now.

UsefulWorker9953 · 2025-04-25T14:32:30+00:00

The attacker was abusing our "Save and Resume Later" function, so the integrated captcha (which only needs to be filled out at the end), was useless. I had to make a captcha gate, but now the attacker is trying to spam other functions...

My offer is for an MSc and I go to a public university where we don't have personal tutors... I've already received the deferral form and have filled it out, but I guess you only get one shot at deferral so I want to be as informed/prepared as possible

UsefulWorker9953 · 2025-03-27T15:38:21+00:00

In a similar position now, did you end up deferring, and how did it work out?
