Best Counters to Winter Soldier
How to Counter Winter Soldier
Winter Soldier has 275 health and only 3 shots per clip, so pressure him right after Bionic Hook and Trooper's Fist go on their 15 and 10-second cooldowns, when his reloads and bonus health slow down. Heroes who hold ground or get out of reach quickly do well against him, like Peni Parker with her webs and mines or Rocket Raccoon with Jetpack Dash. When he uses Kraken Impact, heal anyone below 20% health straight away, because a marked enemy under that line dies instantly and gives him another cast.
