How to beat Orisa

Tank · Overwatch

The best counters to Orisa right now are Symmetra, Lúcio, and Tracer, led by Symmetra at a +1.4 counter rating. Every hero below is ranked by how hard they beat Orisa in real duels and teamfights, all ranks, updated Jul 8, 2026.

Ratings blend one-on-one duel wins (two thirds) with teamfight impact (one third), from the kill feeds of community matches. Each hero's general strength is stripped out, so a high rating means the matchup itself is lopsided, not that the hero is simply strong. Match win rate is excluded on purpose: it punishes counter picks made from behind. Counters that work by blocking damage rather than dealing it, like D.Va's Defense Matrix, are understated by kill data.

Beating Orisa FAQ

What is the best counter to Orisa in Overwatch?
Symmetra is the strongest pick against Orisa right now, with a counter rating of +1.4, followed by Lúcio and Tracer. The full list below ranks every eligible hero against Orisa.
How are Orisa's counters calculated?
From the kill feeds of community matches: who wins the one-on-one kill trades against Orisa, and whose side dies more while both heroes are on the field. Each hero's general strength is stripped out so the rating reflects the matchup itself, and match win rate is excluded entirely because counter-swappers are usually already losing when they swap. Matchups need 50 or more contributing players to appear.
Who is Orisa good against?
Orisa punishes Hazard, Winston, and Doomfist hardest right now. If the enemy runs one of them, staying on Orisa is usually right.
Should I swap off my main to counter Orisa?
Only when the matchup is genuinely lopsided. Playing your best hero into a slightly bad matchup usually beats swapping to an unfamiliar counter: the data shows counter-swappers lose more often partly because they are off their main. Use the ratings here to judge how lopsided the matchup really is before giving up your comfort pick.
