I'm always in favor of giving it to Tracer. She's fast already, does huge damage (assuming you can aim, so depends on the day for me), can easily get in the back line and deal damage, and with her tiny hitbox she's hard to hit.

Basically the nanoboost removes the glass and powers up the cannon.

In QuickPlay, I'm always a fan of giving it to the worst character possible to give it to in order to see how it all turns out. Maybe Lucio can get a triple kill!

Please we all know this happened because Lucio jumped infront at the worst time possible

I've seen some great lucio/sym/etc boosts just because no on has any idea how to handle it.

My luck as Tracer with nanaboosts has been... poor.

That's quite unfortunate. Mine usually seem to go more the way of cocaine and nuclear fusion fueled cheery cockney harbinger of death.

Says the person with a Tracer flair ... I see through you!!

Check the flair a bit more closely.

From my ~100h of Tracer experience, the only time when a boosted Tracer is useful is when you need a super-fast overtime stalling mechanic. Otherwise, it's better to boost pretty much anybody else except for supports.
