JETPACK CAT HERO COUNTERS
Permanent flight makes Jetpack Cat the hardest support to pin down. She heals and damages with Biotic Pawjectiles from the air, tows allies with Lifeline, and Purr knocks back enemies while healing nearby teammates. Hitscan is the answer. Ashe scoped shots, Soldier: 76 tracking, and Sojourn Railgun all hit her reliably in the air. Sombra hack grounds her instantly since the jetpack is an ability, not inherent flight.
Jetpack Cat's top counters are Mercy, Sombra, and Ashe.

Sombra, Ashe, and Mercy (as an enabler for hitscan) counter Jetpack Cat. Sombra hack disables the jetpack entirely, grounding Fika where she becomes a slow, small target with no escape. Ashe scoped shots track her aerial movement and Coach Gun creates distance if she dives. D.Va boosts into her airspace and matrix blocks Pawjectiles.
Jetpack Cat sits at C Tier right now with a 51.5% win rate and 5.4% pick rate across all ranks. Below average in the current patch. You can still win with Jetpack Cat but the meta favors other supports.
Shoot her out of the sky. Jetpack Cat has 200 HP and flies at a speed that's trackable by hitscan. She's harder to hit than Pharah because her hitbox is smaller, but she also deals less damage, so the trade is worth it. Focus her when she's carrying an ally with Lifeline because Frenetic Flight is slower while towing.
Biotic Pawjectiles healing output is moderate, not burst. Fika can't clutch-save a teammate the way Ana or Baptiste can. She excels at sustained healing over time. Her small hitbox helps survival but her kit has no burst heal, no invulnerability, and no cleanse for CC.
D.Va boosts into Jetpack Cat airspace and Defense Matrix blocks Biotic Pawjectiles. Wrecking Ball disrupts her team positioning from below while she's focused on aerial healing. Roadhog hook reaches high enough to catch her if she hovers predictably.
Sombra hack is the hard counter. Grounded Jetpack Cat is a free kill. Ashe scoped shots connect reliably on her aerial path. Bastion Assault mode tracks her small hitbox with enough volume of fire to compensate. Echo matches her in the air and Focusing Beam finishes below half HP.
Mercy damage boost on a hitscan player makes killing Jetpack Cat twice as fast. Lucio Speed Boost helps ground teammates reposition away from Purr knockback. Wuyang Guardian Wave knocks her off aerial healing paths.
