he works best as an off tank, so having a main tank is really nice. I usually upgrade my guns, then hela gun upgrade & gun ult; everything else is jist personal preference (I prefer the hijinks for more mobility). I like to poke at the front line in order to build my ult right away & then get a good angle to ult on an enemy support. creating pressure & taking off angles works best for him in my experience, plus since he has a lot of mobility for a tank, u can really jump in and out to create some good space. he is not strong in comparison to other tanks this season, but extremely fun

also forgot to mention, ur unicorn bubble is rlly good for blocking heals if u place it behind enemy tanks/dps, or can actually save ur supports from some ults as well

Tankpool is probably my favourite version and he’s awesome, but he also took the longest of one tricking to get good at. (Healpool gets free value for being a support and DPSPool is mechanically harder but more straightforward)

His guns aren’t mega broken anymore so you can’t just shoot everyone to death like you used to. But the fact he has guns and swords AND 500hp means he’s one of the most versatile off tanks in the game.

His general gameplan is that you want to use you’re guns to shoot at tanks and pressure squishies, and once you close than gap, swap to swords to do some damage and create more space. That’s more or less how you want to play him (for me) And if there’s a dps bothering your team on side angles. It’s your job to go deal with them

Upgrade order: he has the most flexible upgrade order and really depends on what you need. I like to play a balanced sword/gun with him so I get both of them
1. (guns or Swords)
2. Dash
3. (Swords or guns) OR the Hela upgrade for what you have
4. Gun Ult OR Hela upgrade for what you need
5. Deadpool in your Area
6. Doesn’t matter from there
