D.Mon is the strongest tank in Season 4 so far, at a 54.75% shrunk win rate over about 88,400 matches, and she has no Season 3 row in this table at all. The rest of the top is more familiar than a season reset usually leaves it, with Torbjörn and Zenyatta still leading their roles.
These are shrunk win rates from Season 4 (Heroes of Busan) community data through about the first four weeks of the season, 5V5, all ranks, all game types, aggregated across maps.
Tank
- D.Mon, 54.75% over ~88,400 matches
- Reinhardt, 53.65% over ~202,800 matches
- Junker Queen, 53.50% over ~67,300 matches
- Wrecking Ball, 51.82% over ~50,600 matches
- Domina, 51.54% over ~84,900 matches
Reinhardt ended Season 3 as the best tank on 53.17% and he has gone up since, so D.Mon is a full point clear of a hero who is himself stronger than last season. Sigma is the clearest faller, from 52.22% and fourth place down to 51.38% and seventh.
Damage
- Torbjörn, 55.93% over ~75,700 matches
- Symmetra, 54.88% over ~45,400 matches
- Mei, 53.13% over ~124,100 matches
- Venture, 52.86% over ~38,900 matches
- Anran, 52.13% over ~151,100 matches
Torbjörn and Symmetra were first and second at the end of Season 3 too, on 55.86% and 54.32%, so the top of this role has barely moved. Mei climbed from 52.20% to 53.13%, while Reaper fell from 52.64% and fourth place to 50.68% and twelfth.
Support
- Zenyatta, 54.02% over ~180,500 matches
- Mizuki, 52.17% over ~264,800 matches
- Brigitte, 52.11% over ~75,000 matches
- Jetpack Cat, 51.96% over ~141,100 matches
- Wuyang, 51.65% over ~117,000 matches
Zenyatta has been the best support in both seasons, 54.17% then 54.02%. Jetpack Cat is the biggest riser in the snapshot, up from 49.12% and eleventh at the end of Season 3 to 51.96% and fourth, and Illari went the other way, from 52.64% and third down to 50.82% and eighth.
The bottom of each role
Sojourn is still last among damage heroes at 45.91%, close to where she ended Season 3 on 45.29%. D.Va fell from 47.16% to 45.87% and is now the lowest tank, under Orisa on 46.18%, and Baptiste sits last among supports at 47.57%.
Play rate and win rate are pulling apart in Damage
The four most played damage heroes in the snapshot are Cassidy (~248,600 matches), Shion (~243,500), Soldier: 76 (~222,900) and Sierra (~211,600), and all four land between 48.10% and 50.30%. Every hero in the role's top five is picked less often than those four.
Treat the lower half as provisional
Four weeks is a short window, and the 400-match shrinkage pulls thin samples toward 50%, so the heroes packed between 49% and 52% will move as the season fills in. The gaps at the very top and the very bottom, D.Mon and Torbjörn above, Sojourn and D.Va below, are the ones with enough matches behind them to act on now.
