TORBJORN HERO COUNTERS

Kill the turret. That's half of Torbjorn's damage output gone in one action. The turret auto-locks targets within 40 meters, does 56 DPS, and has 250 HP. Peek it from cover and destroy it before pushing. Overload makes Torbjorn a nightmare in close range for 5 seconds (armor, speed, fire rate), but it's a short window. Wait it out, then punish.

Torbjorn's top counters are Hanzo, Sojourn, and Mercy.

FAQ

  • Hanzo destroys Torbjorn setups from safe range. Storm Bow two-shots the turret and one-shots Torbjorn himself with a headshot. Widowmaker snipes the turret from across the map without risking anything. Roadhog hook pulls Torbjorn out from behind his turret into the team.

  • Torbjorn sits at B Tier right now with a 51.8% win rate and 5.1% pick rate across all ranks. Solid but not dominant. Works well in the right hands and team comps.

  • Always kill the turret first. It has 250 HP, no self-heal, and Torbjorn has to physically walk to it to repair. Peek-shoot from cover and it dies in 2-3 shots from most heroes. Without turret, Torbjorn's damage output cuts roughly in half and he loses his area denial.

  • Turret is static. It can't move, it can't dodge, and it tells the enemy team exactly where Torbjorn is set up. Long-range heroes destroy it for free from angles the turret can't return fire. Torbjorn himself is also slow and short, making him easy to headshot at mid-range.

  • Roadhog hooks Torbjorn away from his turret and one-shots him. The turret keeps firing but without Torbjorn it can't be repaired and dies fast. Orisa Fortify walks through turret damage and javelin destroys it in two hits. Domina barrier blocks turret sightline.

  • Hanzo Storm Bow two-shots the turret from safe range and headshots Torbjorn. Widowmaker snipes turret from across the map and one-shots him if he peeks. Sojourn Railgun one-shots the turret and slide escapes Overload range. Soldier: 76 Helix Rocket chunks turret HP.

  • Mercy damage-boosted hitscan destroys turrets faster. Zenyatta Discord on either Torbjorn or turret makes one die instantly. Ana Sleep Dart on Torbjorn during Overload wastes his strongest 5-second window.
