ChokePoints

If you are trying to move in a chokepoint, pick a hero that has high-mobility skills like Genji’s Wall Climb, Hanzo, Winston’s Jump Pack, those who can penalize tightly packed or set of opponents with area damage, or give support for many teammates straight away.
Tip to Consider
Don’t go into match alone if you can keep away from it. If you stick with your team, you will make sure that your support hero can easily secure allies, and organize your assaults on opponents.
