Junker Queen gameplay breakdown
Overview
Junker Queen is a Tank character, focusing on getting close and personal with the enemy team and brawling her way to victory. While she has a lot of damage potential, she can also inflict debunks on enemies. Her main fire is a scattergun, but that’s not her only form of damage. Similar to Roadhog, she is a tank not really focused on protecting her teammates. She wants to get into the thick of fights and do as much damage as possible.

Abilities
- Passive: Adrenaline Rush – When you wound enemies, you will heal yourself over time.
- Carnage – one of Junker Queen’s most noticeable features is the axe she wields. This melee ability strikes enemies with the axe dealing pretty good damage on a cooldown.
- Jagged Blade – Junker Queen’s knife that she calls Gracie is her main melee attack and deals a little more damage than usual melee attacks. She can also throw it and stick enemies with it. When she calls it back, the enemy is pulled towards her.
- Commanding Shout – this area of effect ability will temporarily increase nearby teammates’ speed and overall health. You get a little more health than teammates.
- Rampage – Rampage is Junker Queen’s Ultimate. She spins around a bunch of metal and weapons in front of her and dashes forward. This wounds enemies and also prevents them from healing themselves, similar to Ana’s Biotic Grenade.
Overwatch 2 is out in early access on October 4. She’ll be joined by a few other new heroes, as well as the characters from the original game.
