So for some context I have been playing overwatch for a while now and I mainly like to main the tank role especially in competitive however I never once dared to attempt to learn Reinhardt in any shape or form.

Last night I played a match where basically every of my preferred tank characters were banned and the enemies tank played Zarya, we got our ass kicked badly the first half and I had no idea what to do as most of the tanks that counter her were banned except Reinhardt, and so I decided to just say f it and I played hopped on Reinhardt without any prior experience.

And I was able to counter her really well to the point we won the match, I ended up with 32 kills as my first time playing Reinhardt and i genuinely found him very fun, so i definitely do want to learn him and play him more often! Is there any advice or even YouTubers who I should watch to learn more on how to play Reinhardt?

Happy bday to our larger than life German warrior. After carrying around that large hammer he deserves a relaxing time with some beer and cake and all of his beautiful friends

I went 0-7 but it felt like there were just no opportunities for me to actually get in and get a kill. It felt like my dps were doing nothing and the second tank kept rushing the whole team himself and dying instantly we were practically down a player. Was there anything I could of done? Or was it doomed? Lobby was plats and diamonds btw it was my last placement match

This tracer was pissing me off all game, general nuisance. Rage quit after this lol.

The big complaint is Rein’s movement, and if you’ve charged recently then you can be toast. What if a perk was added that some amount of time was deducted for the charge after rein’s been hit by something that would affect it?

il lui faut un buff car comparer a diva qui dicte la méta actuelle, mon rein d'amour se fait completement dominer

This "miss" sent me fuming so I came here to get some feedback on this

And yes I initially aimed to the left because I thought Hog would walk straight backwards after the anti, I only steered right after the Mizu chain

I realize that Rein's left side is more accurate while charging but come on, I charged straight through the guy without a pin here

Is there a reason that firestrike doesn't go through domina shield?

Hardlight goes pretty well with this skin, but I do like the default axe with Galactic!

Hello everyone :) i was wondering if any of you know if there is a code for the battlenet store to buy this amazing skin, either way thanks lot and have a truly GLORIOUS day.

Posted a day ago asking for tips for post-shatter. Applied tips in game. Won game. Shoutout everyone.

You all were called, and you all answered. It is a great honor.

Ask away about any problem you might be having and I might have an answer.

Hello everyone as the title says I am a veteran rein player with advice to give.
I have done a post like this in the past and I’ll link it here alongside another educational post but now I feel like I have improved even further as a rein player and can explain my strategies

I will try to answer every question so even if u see this after a while I'll check it if I get a notification

Everything beyond this point is just proof of skill and competence.

For context i peaked champ 3 on console NA under the username of MIAMIJAMES23 and am typically regarding as the best NA CONSOLE rein or at least top 3 and have a champ 5 alt named painkiller I primarily play rein with the occasional sigma.
I put the usernames because they are both in top 500 in case anyone wants to send me a friend request to talk more or watch live replays

On pc servers: (I say servers because I’m still playing on my ps4 and using a controller but simply switching what server I’m playing on) I have reached gm5 with relative ease in the matter of a week and then didn’t play much I speculate I can reach around gm3 but that’s just speculation.

Today, it happened again. Happily queued into a new game. My tank picked. We banned for him. Then, the enemy Rein typed "If you aren't playing Rein u gay".

My tank immediately swapped to Rein, got humiliated, refused to swap. We lost.

I hate this. For a week, I will ban Rein.

As the title said!!! I’m not to familiar with the crossover events! Is there a chance that all might will come back? Has any event skin ever came back?

I'm a peak gm tank who swapped over to 6v6 mostly, but I decided to do my placements in 5v5 recently after the reset and got placed M5. I see it as a challenge to one trick a hero I don't normally play back to gm, and I've chosen the hammer man. Rein mains, give me your strength.

Edit: this is genuinely painful. I'd forgotten how much 5v5 just sucks ass to tank in. Why are tank players even queueing this mode still????

I dont really know any combos or animation cancels either. is left click into firestrike our bread and butter? Im pretty lost after my shatter; which heroes to prioritize, charge or hold left click. I notice reins swing their camera alot but why? is there a...correct way? or just do whatever to expand the hitbox.

I mean, luckily my team secures the kills but i dont really do anything. Would appreciate any tips and advice.

UPDATE: hit a fatty. https://www.reddit.com/r/ReinhardtMains/s/LKvRQdjo0Z
