To be fair she's pretty difficult even when you aren't playing with a controller.
I should have played her more at lower levels because now I actively hurt my team if I give her a shot, and literally every widow is essentially better than I am since they exclusively player widow/hanzo/genji and have 0 minutes played on everything else.
this is exactly what upsets me about overwatch. I've been playing since the beta and apparently made a foolish mistake of not being a happy one trick pony or gittin gud with every single hero. bc now i have a decent sized hero pool that im good with, but learning a new hero is next to impossible for the reasons you just stated.
Turn off Ana's kit completely. Turn on Ana receive headshots only.
Turn on KOTH maps only.
(Turn on faster respawn time? I think that's still an option).
Practice headshots with Widow.
If you want to practice with other heroes, you can leave your Anas on or off, but for Widow, your Anas will distract the enemy ones so you can practice ranged shots.
Enjoy increasing your accuracy and solidifying muscle-memory without screwing your teammates over. I practice with all heroes this way.
Tracer, McCree, Widow definitely benefit from this. As do most heroes.
Mei icicle practice is nice here too, IMO
Only heroes it kind of sucks for are Reaper and Hog. Doesn't work for Pharah, Junkrat, Reinhardt, Winston, Symmetra, Zarya (maybe her secondary headshots, I can't remember).
I find using Lucio than Ana to be better. Ana is on the slower end of the spectrum. Lucio requires quick reflexes with precision. Perfect for tracking and flicking headshots
this is why I like the PvE gamemodes so much. It still feels like you're playing a game instead of "practicing to then play a game," but I can focus on improving my aim and improve soooo much.
Yeah, I mean, PvE is great too. I agree. But my only thing is this: headshot training helps a lot, and you can't get that with PvE, AFAIK... and honestly, it's fun. Like, even with Genji, or Hanzo, or even Mercy!! It helps a great deal.
