When to Pick
Almost always a strong pick as the highest utility support in the game. When your team has Nano Boost combo targets like Genji, Soldier, Reinhardt, or Sojourn. Against grouped enemies where Biotic Grenade anti-heal hits multiple targets. When you can position far back safely.
When to Avoid
Against full dive like Winston plus Tracer plus Genji that collapses on your backline. When you cannot hit Sleep Darts on flankers consistently to survive. Against barrier compositions that block your healing sightlines to teammates who need it.
