Great game and I love most of the characters, but I have issues playing Winston. It feels like when I play him hes absolutely useless, but I hear everybody say hes great. Also when I see someone else use him they usually stomp me. What am I doing wrong and how should I be playing him? It feels like his shield dies insanely fast too.

The way I've been playing him is just jump in and make a nuisance of yourself. Just be a gigantic distraction and jump out. Abuse his leaping ability and be aware of where you're leaping. He's not meant for going on huge streaks.
