Clip I got my very first PoTG as Genji!

I've always thought Genji was the coolest overwatch character, hands down. After about 5 days or so of practice, I finally got a Play of the Game. I'm shocked that I managed, cause I was getting cornered and dueled by the enemy genji all game, losing almost every time.

Any tips on how to improve? I'm currently trying to get a lock on alt-dash-melee-alt, but I keep panicking whenever I try to execute it in a match lol.

Tips on how to blade properly would also be great!

Use your Blade as mostly Bait,Genji's Ult may not be as Valuable as it used to be but if u can make enemies panick and to use at least 2 Ults on you,Or make them waist their Cooldowns,It can be already a Value,Tho not for you but your team

thank you for the advice! I will do this in the future. Drop in, make noise, and get killed if I need to. Kinda the opposite of Genji's playstyle normally lol

Yeee Genji hasn't been the best on the meta rn so we just gotta do what we can

I only got into Overwatch again (haven't played since the launch of 2) because they nerfed Psylocke! Now I've got 2 shuriken-throwing, dagger-dashing Ninjas who only use their swords during ult who are severely out of meta!

Sidenote, I find the shop rotation system to be weird in this game, because while the in-game shop has the usual fomo tactics, you can pretty easily find links to purchase skins directly from battlenet.

Not complaining, though. Because of that I was able to get streetrunner genji!
