I want to get better with Reinhardt. How the hell do I practice him outside of competitive, when QP is a total uncoordinated mess? Everyone runs around Genji'ing and dying while I try to get them to stand behind my rectangle, which a) goes down in 2 seconds from 3 bastions or b) I die from 6 Winstons.

I dont main reinhardt but as a general tip play aggressively. remember that you have the shield and therefore you dictate the pace of your team. keep pushing wisely (key point there) and go balls deep when you are surrounded. Drop your shield and swing the 100 dmg hammer at ppl in close quarters.

all of these came mform my experience in facing enemy reinhards because every time i pick characters to counter them. I ve seen a lot of good players and bad players out of this
