DON’T CLUMP UP WITH YOUR TEAMMATES
Overwatch: LUCIOBALL TIPS AND TRICKS
We know you are your teammates are all good pals, but for the sake of ensuring there’s no accidental goals on your own net, make sure your team is never all clumped together in one place when the ball is nearby.
Last year, Lucio was able to boop the enemy team, as well as the ball. This time however, he is only able to boop the ball, meaning running into a crowd with a bunch of other Lucio’s at high speeds could result in the ball ricocheting off a couple heads and right into your goal. This is especially troublesome right in front of the net, as if an offensive player sticks too close to the goalie, then the goalie might mistakenly knock the ball off his teammate and right back into their own net. It’s often best to leave the goal-tending to one person, as anticipating the trajectory and angle of an incoming ball is a lot easier without a bunch of teammates around who could mess with its arc.
So spread out, and make the best use of the field. The only time clumping up might be useful if you were in front of the enemy goal, but even then the odds of the ball going into the net are more up to chance rather than from a purposeful Soundwave.
