How To Counter Every Class The Finals
When faced against a heavy as a light, it's crucial to keep your distance and not take straight-up fights because if you don't, you better pray they miss a whole lot of shots. Try using your abilities to get different angles and take them out with multiple clips. The shotgun pistol and XP54 are great options, as the shotgun can two-shot at close range and the pistol and XP54 do great damage at medium range.
I also recommend pushing their mesh shield with your abilities if they're weak. Mes Shield makes it very hard for heavyweights to move, making it easy to get behind them for a free kill. Moving on to some counters, mediums have, like I mentioned in the medium segment, a good medium that can easily kill a heavy out of position, making positioning a very important part of your success as a medium.
Know where the heavies are and shoot them from range. Use your jump pad and zip lines to create distance, and light them up from there. Next, I recommend using your defib midf fight if possible. Like I just said a minute ago, Focus Fire will give you much more success when fist against a heavy. With their large health pool of 350, the average player will have a hard time taking out a healthy heavy by themselves.
Make sure you're staying tight with your teammates, and your chances of survival will be much greater. Okay, and finally, we have tips for heavies when faced with the mirror matchup. Similar to the medium mirror matchup, the main difference in 1 vs. 1 here will be skill, although if you're using the shotgun and they're notot, you have a much better chance as the heavy shotgun can take four to five shots in close range.
Another tip I have is to use two C4s on an explosive barrel, as with all three of these combined, it adds up to almost 500 damage, making it very easy to take out heavy The last tip I have for heavies is to use your mesh shield. That way, your teammates can shoot back enemy heavies without the risk of them being shot, packed, or blown up.
Also, pay attention to your surroundings and make sure you're in front of your friends, as this is your job to tank and shoot for them.
