The Hero Overwatch 2 Needed: the Complete Venture Guide

OW2's new damage hero Venture has been the source of a lot of controversy in-game. Are the burst combos OP, are they too easy to counter? Is the hero design even good? Coach Spilo answers all these questions, and (maybe more importantly), teaches you how to ACTUALLY play the hero in ranked, whether you're new or experienced with the hero.

What are your thoughts on Venture atm?

[Skyrdr]

“Groundbreaking” That pun rocks. I can dig it.

[BringerOfMoisture]

A solid tip for playing Venture is just… have a history for playing Splatoon. I’m serious. Because I played splatoon 1 religiously years ago, I kinda just… understood how to use venture perfectly off the start of the season.

at 8:19 you mention a shoot, drill, shoot, melee combo. a better combo if you are in melee range is: Shoot, instantly melee (only getting impact damage) into instantly drill, cancelling the melee with drill, then shoot which does 290, killing most squishies aside from cassidy because of roll, mei, and reaper

[PoisedHD]

imagine if this hero was released before universal heal passive and before health pools increased

[SynchroFPS]

I used to main genji/tracer/doom, I then became a tracer 1 trick in ow2. I have to say, Venture might be the most fun character since Tracer.

This is the first time where I actually knew all the tips and playstyle, makes me really happy that I understood all of this on my own in my gamesense learning journey! Love the jazz in the background btw.

I just tried Venture for one day and I've already decided they're my new main. The kit works SO WELL with how I want to play. This is the first time I've ever felt instantly attached to a character's playstyle. I was doing everything you were talking about without even thinking about it.

This video helped me so, so much at getting a better grasp of what my role is on Venture. I have been too obsessed with actually trying to secure the eliminations when I go in, but after this video I've been playing more to just threaten their team and it has worked wonderfully. I've also adapted spamming more into my playstyle and it has given me so much more value, especially if it's at a point in time where I have no need to go in. Before watching this, I'd have a lot more deaths than I think I needed for the returned kills I got. I just played a game where I was 35-3. Playing more for pressure, as well as spamming and occasionally staying in the backline behind the enemy team has helped me a ton. Thanks!

[ruisu]

so keep running it down and use all abilites to engage? got it.

[josephreynolds]

The chapter splits are incredible thanks spillo

[Falconwing]

I was on Circuit Royale second checkpoint attack. The doom was much further than his team so I used the “deep dash” to intimidate the squishies following him. By the time they refocused my team had killed the doom and mopped up the arriving squishies.

[Enkinanna]

My favorite thing about venture is that they make pharah and cass relevant characters lol
They are pretty dang fun to play as well tho

[Kamiron-vl]

Yep. You deserve a sub. I love how you explain everything and how to play her, because i always try and go out in the open, however cassidy is less threatening since he has flashbang now

[DustyCryptid]

Always see you on TikTok, this just popped up after my search. Looking forward to watching more of your full length videos. Great work man, appreciate the work you do to keep us educated and getting better.

[IamHopeman]

I really like the self-review guide style. Very helpful and tangible!

[hcmcourt]

Yakuza 0 & Skullgirls background music? 10 points to you sir

[Modernsour]

I love playing venture like a pseudo tank and focusing gathering attention and helping my tank take space

[pastromer]

the character really is a revised dps doom

[Oguh]

Feels like Venture does Reapers job but better. More survivability and stronger up close burst damage. Ventures survivability makes Venture a little OP in those moments. Venture can constantly harass the backline with very little risk. The only thing that Venture does worse is tank damage.
