COMPLETE MASTERS GUIDE to SIGMA | INSTANTLY IMPROVE in Overwatch 2

Is Sigma the most UNDERRATED tank in Overwatch 2? I think he might be S tier... (after Roadhog nerfs anyway)

thanks for watching :)

As a GM Sigma, I confirm everything in this video, learned the same by myself. Due to new patch, accretion is dealing 80 dmg now, but combo is still possible with additional shot before the incoming rock.

Random fact I discovered by playing Junkrat against Sigma : during his ult, drop a mine below you and make it explode before you smash the ground. It will cancel the fall damage

[afriendofafriend]

Rock + primary is 210 afaik because rock damage was buffed. You can also press e and hold primary to shoot all three at once to eliminate follow up.

[brotherabrahamzamarripa]

Great job on the guide. Just one thing. It's a common misconception that you can only shoot once during ult. You can hit 2 volleys during his flux for a total of 4 orbs. The 1st is when you immediately flux them up, the 2nd is the obvious one when they're suspended in the air, and the 3rd is once they already hit the floor on 20 hp. I would say it's practical since I've confirmed many double, even sometimes triple kills using this method which is huge considering there's only 5 players per team.

[justinsmeer]

To add: Sig's 2 orbs are independent from each other, meaning you can throw each orb in 2 different directions, this can be helpful when a high mobility enemy is strafing left and right because you can throw each orb to a general location where they will be rather than hoping they move the direction you aim.
Close quarters fighting also has one major disadvantage (other than difficulty aiming). Sig receives self damage from his orbs and rock.
An advantage to the self damage is he can use it for a slight movement thrust allowing him to reach places he couldn't normally.

[Jaikanatar]

I typically play as a duo sometimes a trio, and Sigma is so beautifully versatile when paired with other characters. My buddy sticks by me as Lucio and gives me speed boost especially when things are tight. That pairing makes Sigma absolutely OP if youre coordinated with a teammate. Not to mention using the shield to save your teammate in a clutch moment

[thedeltastrat]

tbh I think the dva match up is pretty good. Use grasp to eat the rockets and gain a bigger health advantadge, try and take out some of the armour, and then rock her when she tried to fly away or use defense matrix to avoid damage. Then with a little follow up damage from a dps you get an easy kill

[Markarting]

You know that feeling when you find the game/hero you where born to play? That’s how I feel with sig, I have around 2 hour on him and I’m really enjoying so far ! First tank I can play with putting my foot through the screen. This is a great guide and I’m glad I found this channel!! :D

[HomelessCoaching]

One of the best overwatch hero guides I've ever seen, most of it still holds up after many changes. Great stuff

[haasithgarapati]

Correction: Armor calculation doesn't work by doing (Healthpool)*(1.3). It works like (Healthpool)/(0.7) which actually gives even higher effective health values. Brig's effective health is actually 221 (150+[50/0.7]).
Nice video. Sigma is quite underrated and is probably going to be VERY strong if long-range/poke becomes META.

[zeo]

“Except for Brig” while talking about squishies really makes it feel like explaining abilities in Jujutsu Kaisen where it’s always followed up with “except for Satoru Gojo” 😂

[germans_lol]

Im no gm player but sigma vs dva might be something i can ask for. Mainly due to where if i focus on getting her backline, she will be forced to block that with dm. However if i throw a rock and my team focuses her, that healthpool she has will shred into nothing

[freewayal]

kiriko at 7:58 got me weak she tried to cleanse

[princeproductions]

also in 9:54 sigma can throw his rock at dva while she's using defense matrix and it would go past dva's defense matrix and stun which is an easy way to pull her out of defense matrix

[jasondichow]

Great job Bailey, this is exactly the type of content I've been looking for as a new tank player climbing the comp ladder in OW2. Well explained scenarios with fantastic visual examples. Subbed and looking forward to your next tank guide!

[TheMartianMancumpster]

You can use sigmas shield to remove the hampsters minefield, just run it throuh them.

Also can block bastions artilerry if you deploy it above you, like a missile proof umbrella.

[tomjack]

How does this man only have 41 subs? Really high quality video man def subbing

[Dro]

Thank you for the comprehensive guide. I am just getting back into gaming after a long hiatus. I used to play Dva in Overwatch one but dont think she is great as a main tank. Sigma has been my new calling and I appreciate how straight forward and easy you made this video for even an old man like me can understand. Thank you!

[thicboibigsmoke]

I’m currently in high silver, but I used to be platinum on console, and I LOVE sigma because he plays insanely well into the meta of the lower skill tiers. Everyone plays the high damage heroes like bastion and junket and they just give me free shield every time I use my grasp, I end up with over 1000 hp pretty consistently

[GozzarGames]

I think another good tip as a sigma is if there is a Sombra and you have ult, wait to get hacked first then pop ult The only way she can cancel you out of your ult after you've been recently hacked is if she EMPs. Just be aware though that some sombra's will intentionally hack you to bait out your ult so she can EMP you.
