Control Lijiang, China
Lijiang Tower

Key Positions

Garden Bridge

The bridge on Garden sub-map with deadly drops on both sides; Lucio and Pharah boops are devastating here

Night Market Corridors

Tight indoor corridors around the Night Market point; close-range and brawl compositions dominate

Control Center Balconies

Elevated balconies overlooking the Control Center point; snipers and hitscan heroes control the fight from here

Garden Mega Health Pack

Located near the side of the Garden point; essential sustain resource during extended brawl fights

Night Market Side Buildings

Buildings flanking the Night Market point that provide off-angles and flanking routes

Control Center High Ground

Elevated platforms above the Control Center point; the team that holds high ground typically wins

Attack Strategy

On Control Center, push through the side rooms onto the upper balconies and drop onto the point through the open ceiling for fast pressure. On Garden, take the bridge approach and use the small structures around the point as cover from the wide outdoor sightlines. On Night Market, hold the second-floor walkways above the main hall and force defenders into the open below. Hitscan picks excel in Garden's long lines, while brawl wins the cramped Control Center and Night Market fights.

Defense Strategy

Control the high-ground entries unique to each sub-arena. On Control Center, hold the upper balconies and the side rooms to deny a vertical takeover and protect the open ceiling above point. On Garden, claim the bridge and the small flanking structures so attackers cannot cross the wide outdoor space safely. On Night Market, lock down the second-floor walkways and shop doorways above the main hall. A composition that swaps between hitscan poke on Garden and brawl indoors keeps you adaptable.

Hero Picks

Lucio — Garden bridge provides incredible boop potential; speed boost is strong on Night Market
Winston — Can dive high ground on Control Center and contest the Garden bridge effectively
Reinhardt — Night Market tight corridors are perfect for brawl; also strong on Garden in close-range fights
Pharah — Open areas on Garden and environmental kill potential make her a strong pick
Reaper — Night Market close quarters and Garden brawl fights favor his shotgun damage

Tips & Tricks

  • On Garden, never stand on the bridge without awareness of Lucio or Pharah; environmental kills happen constantly
  • Night Market plays like a mini Kings Row; run brawl with Reinhardt, Lucio, and close-range DPS
  • Control Center is the most aim-dependent sub-map; snipers and hitscan heroes shine on the balconies
  • On Garden, the mega health pack near the side of the point can sustain your team through extended fights
  • Winston can jump between the Control Center balconies to contest snipers and create space for his team
