r/HawkeyeMains

Mrrrr Maaaarr! (LandSharkian for "Hello")

I've decided to take a break from Jeff and thought to myself, what is the most satisfying DPS character to play as that's not entirely a Left click simulator but also not a Dive character? So I looked at Hawkeye!! :D

I've come to ask in hopes to learn a few tips before picking up the bow and arrow!

What kind of Value can I give when playing this character? What are the basic mechanics, do's and don'ts??

Teach me the ways of Hawkeye :3

They wonder why we die a lot

This is the type of healing I get whenever I play Hawkeye. Actual atrocious, subhuman species who main support in GM.

A question for yall goats

I'm a new Hawkeye main,finally decided to start to main him after obsessing over his Ronin skin with those dope sfx

But still,I have a question:do you regularly get your mvps stolen or rigged? Both these matches I pretty much ping ponged back and forth between the enemy backline to flank and my own backline to peel (kinda like Arrge if you know him)

I do everything,I get picks,I peel,I rageabait with headshots so there's less focus on my backline from the divers and still don't get mvp

So I gotta know if this too happens to you or am I the only unfortunate

Btw I'm Portuguese so naturally my game's gonna be in Portuguese,if any of you need to clarify just ask and I'll translate 🏹

This is getting rough

Can we pls go like one season without getting a character that hard counters us or puts so much clutter on the screen where you can’t see shit. The hood has officially made it to where some games I have to swap just because of the clutter.

Hawkeye mains if they removed the one shot would these buffs fix him and it’s not what else could they do

Base HP creased from 250 to 275
Piercing arrow Critical multiplier reduced from 2x to 1.5x Arrow projectile arc reduced
Blast arrow charges increased from 3 to 4
Crescent slash cooldown reduced from 12s to 8s
Ronin slash successful block grants 25 bonus HP

Got to admit the one shot is not healthy for this game or any game and I’m only asking because you play him so yeah

Oh by the way, the things that you have seen or potential ideas not my ideas

we have to admit something for the good of Hawkeye.

those shotgun arrows are actually kind of overpowered, especially with psylocke's team up.

but Hawkeye absolutely needs them because of how stressful dive can be and combine that with you not having any time to take headshots from the front line you just can't do anything.

HOWEVER the reason why I'm saying this is because I think in the future they might nerf this a bit too hard to the point where we kind of become useless again. So the point of this is to just sorta prepare for that future.

SO... NETEASE! IF YOURE GOING TO NERF IT

JUST INCREASE THE PROJECTILE SPREAD THATS ALL AND NOT WAYY TOO MUCH.

Does anyone know why we can no longer buy the new legendary skin outside of the bundle with Gambit?

Basically, after the update today I was planning on spending all the units and even lattice I have been grinding to get ever since the new legendary came out and I'll finally have enough today to buy the skin bundle that doesn't include the emojis. But when I opened the store I can't find the skin anywhere so I went to the cosmetics tab on Hawkeye to see if I can press the Acquire button so that it'll take me to the screen where I can buy the skin but when I did that it only took me to his bundle with Gambit which is 3400 units. I've been spending a lot of time grinding units for this and I'm devastated. Does anyone have any kind of solution before even that bundle leaves in 14 hours?

I would appreciate any help from anyone.

Thanx in advance.

I know yall don’t like when people ask for tips but I have just one thing I still haven’t been able to improve on

So I’ve been playing Hawkeye since season 3 and I have him almost to level 30. But I’ve never been able to consistently get one shot picks. This season has been my best critical KO wise with only 3.2 headshot kills every ten minutes which I know is absolutely god awful. How can I fix this? I’ve spent hours in the range and can hit like 20 full charged headshots in a row. But I just cannot translate it consistently to real matches. I do have a game here and there where I absolutely pop off and run the lobby. But I just need some pointers. I would try aim training but I just play on controller.

Hawkeye crosshair

Hey guys. I have almost 200 hours on Hawkeye, and to this day, I still mess around with his crosshair but never seem to find the perfect one. What do you guys use, and if you could, can you explain why you use it?
Personally, I use the normal small dot with no reticle animation. Lately, though, I’ve seen people using reticle animation with the plus crosshair. I wasn’t a big fan of it personally, but to be honest, I haven’t tried it enough to really know.

Hanzo main from ow1 here. Played Hawkeye season 0 when he was an animal but kind of lost my way to the spidey sense. Video above is from Season 2.5. Dropped the game until season 8 and just now getting back into it! Any recommendations on how to play Hawkeye in these newer seasons with such meta changes?
