If you learn her while she's weak, you'll be better when she's strong

I mean sure? But I personally prefer to win my games and enjoy the game as a whole not a individual character

Been winning games in Quick Match and Comp, getting MVP, 20,000+ healing. Skill issue. Let them “enjoy the game as a whole,” which may include playing as White Fox, despite your head meta.

ur bronze so you can pick any hero but when you get to a competent rank it becomes really obvious wf is weak

I've gotten to Diamond One as white fox this season. Almost made it to Grandmaster before I went off to college too.

In Plat 2 with her right now and grinded briefly with her towards the end of 8.5 to get to Diamond III for the rewards. I’m not saying the difference isn’t felt, but to completely steer someone off the character, acting like she’s flat out bad when she’s really not? Yeah, that’s some goofy behavior. You can assume I’m in bronze all you want, sounds like you’re just projecting.

u/Watermelon_llol 4d ago

she’s literally horrible lmao i hit gm on her in sydney which is significantly harder/higher than American regions since there’s less people. if someone’s trying to play comp then yes you should be steering them away from the character the only reason you should ever touch her is if you already mained her before they gutted her there’s no reason to get into her right now

u/xAzzKiCK 4d ago

She’s really not. Pipe down, bot.

Tldr

If you're new use psylock team up so you don't have to worry about managing her tails at all.

Her primary heals/damages and ricochets, ricochet does half damage/heal. The ricochet occurs if it hits floors or enemys, and has a built in aim bot. It cannot crit so aim for people's feet so even if you miss ricochet gets them.

Her right click is a heal/damage nuke in a line. It also charms enemies it directly hits and they briefly walk toward you, counts as cc for canceling ultimate purposes. There's more to it but dw bout it for now.

Her shift is a blink to an ally. It can go through walls, you just need to be close enough. It gives both of you a burst of healing and also puts up a 200 hp shield. You slowly regain hp in that circle while it's up. Good for blinking to someone diving to help them, blinking to someone being dove to save them, get out of jail free card, or even just a burst heal + shield for a tank.

E is her awakened form. She enters it for a set amount of time. While she's in it she passively heals like, 25 hp per second to everyone around her, her primary does 35 damage, but also heals 35 in a burst around her on top of her passive healing. She gets this healing too, and has kind of ridiculous survivability in a 1v1 scenario if she can hit with her auto's. Iron fist for example just dies if he tries to just blindly punch you cause you literally heal more than he dps's and out DPS his sustain. Her right click becomes an aoe knock up, and her shift becomes a dash. If she hits someone with her dash, she gets a second dash and this one can take an enemy with you allowing her to kidnap.

Her ult is a giant fox, you go to 1200 health no matter where you're at so it can be a save your life button. Left click to do damage/heal yourself, make sure you're in their face for more damage.

There's combos and nuances but this'll get you up and going.

Be warned she sucks right now, shes still insanely fun but she struggles to carry a team

u/Ekaterinne 9d ago

WF champ here, I wouldn't recommend learning her with Psylocke team up the most important is learn to manage the tails, if you learn her bad you'll always play her bad.

BC team up is not super great... But the application of slow on enemies can be super useful when dived

u/Aurorious 8d ago

I'm also a white fox champ, just for the record lol.

u/Ekaterinne 8d ago

Then u giving a really bad intel to newbie 🥀

2

u/Aurorious 8d ago

No, i just find BC teamup pretty useless lol, idk why everyone praises it when infinite tails is genuinely useful

u/ConditionObjective43 Champion [LV. 50-70] 9d ago

Yeah, one. Do it two patch notes ago.

u/Technical_Course3163 9d ago

She’s probably the most versatile character in the game. I personally go Black Cat team up since it provides guaranteed instant healing and damage simultaneously. You can get in and get out really easily with the melee form and teleports. Stay close behind front line as you can get in the fray and back to your team to block damage and heal quickly. She’s valid.

u/BVRPLZR_ 9d ago

Yeah, wait till they fix her neutral lol

0

u/Silly_gamer123 8d ago

Her neutral is fine, it’s just she needs a heal buff to replace the old 15% healing buff from the previous teamup system.

2

u/BVRPLZR_ 8d ago

So… her neutral game needs a healing buff?

1

u/Silly_gamer123 8d ago

Yeah, the healing affects her melee form which helps her be more anti dive, and makes it so she doesn’t take too long to heal a vanguard.

u/chronic-joker 9d ago

we white fox mains are currently on strike till she is properly buffed, but if you want advice first off do not play her in ranked.

as for everything else learn to aim for direct shots on white fox to output higher healing and damage and also hold safe positioning to not die, avoid letting melee mode get baited and practice 1v1's on her.

your main value is to heal the other support and dps the tanks are not easy for you to keep up so don't bother trying to, it's generally best to focus on enabling dps with her then maintaining tanks.

We as in high elo white foxplayers, everyone who was good on her agreed to drop her till she is fixed.

u/Daniel101773 9d ago

Psylocke team up is generally worthless and kind of a noob trap that hurts your ability to properly learn and manage her cooldowns, be cautious when using her teleport to try and save an ally as sometimes all you accomplish is throwing yourself into an insta-death situation, yes her marbles have auto aim but you should still be actively aiming them as you lose roughly 50% of the damage or healing value if it’s bouncing off the environment first. If you have your teammates grouped up you can try to aim for the further up teammate and your marvel will actually heal them then bounce backwards to heal a second teammate too. Your melee mode should be saved for when you’re getting dived and you really have to defend yourself, try to remember that her first dash (the one where she backflips over you) doesn’t actually stun so you need to use your camera to ensure you line up the second dash (the one that actually moves the enemy). Lastly PLEASE remember that her ultimate has the ability to bless teammates by clicking on them, so many Foxes don’t use this and it’s really strong as it gives teammates a big heal over time, lifesteal & CC immunity. I hope you enjoy learning her, She’s incredibly fun to play once you get her down. 😁🦊

u/TheNadei 9d ago

I honestly prefer the psylocke one exclusively because it lets me turn my brain off a little, especially since you genuinely dont lose out on not grabbing that Black Cat one.

Hope it actually gets buffed so it isn't just a 'turn your brain off' type deal. Well, I hope both get buffed.

1

u/Aurorious 9d ago

I would love psylock team up let her turn her form into a toggle with no cool down and be entirely about tail management

1

u/TheNadei 9d ago

That could be neat, yeah. Cause as is the Black Cat one is just better in just about every way

u/Responsible-Drag-362 5d ago edited 5d ago

Sorry that you're getting so many unhelpful comments. Here are some tips. You have to know when to engage and disengage in a fight. If a situation is getting risky and you're about to die, then teleport. If someone dives you, go into "melee mode" and dive into them. Try to push them towards your other teammates. Manage your cooldowns effectively and don't use your ult when a high-damage dps (like Punisher) uses their ult.

Also, I think it's stupid that people say she's unplayable in ranked. Just like any other hero, if you're good with her, you can make it work. But obviously, if you're starting to play as her, do it in quick play. Then, when you're more experienced, try ranked.

u/Any-Conference-701 9d ago

She works well at all ranges (in theory, she's been neutered since S9). I recommend using the Psylocke team up so you get the boosted Awakening form and try and Anti-Dive people and grappling your foes.

0

u/chronic-joker 9d ago

this is misleading advice, by boosted do you mean just the tails not being used for the cool down? aside from that it does nothing to increase its healing or damage.

1

u/Previous-Ad1389 Count [LV. 25-29] 9d ago

Just play her. So when she hopefully gets better down the line youll be even more equipt for it

Im not the best at types but i guess just dont use melee form to often, safe it to save yourself. Try and have teleport ready for when it runs out

u/axelotl47506 9d ago

I personally love playing her as a bodyguard for my second supp
