How to beat Wuyang

Support · Overwatch

The best counters to Wuyang right now are Winston, Wrecking Ball, and Pharah, led by Winston at a +2.0 counter rating. Every hero below is ranked by how hard they beat Wuyang 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 Wuyang FAQ

What is the best counter to Wuyang in Overwatch?
Winston is the strongest pick against Wuyang right now, with a counter rating of +2.0, followed by Wrecking Ball and Pharah. The full list below ranks every eligible hero against Wuyang.
How are Wuyang's counters calculated?
From the kill feeds of community matches: who wins the one-on-one kill trades against Wuyang, 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 Wuyang good against?
Wuyang punishes Baptiste, Ana, and Kiriko hardest right now. If the enemy runs one of them, staying on Wuyang is usually right.
Should I swap off my main to counter Wuyang?
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.
