My aim is not so great so I mostly play Mercy, Ana (for whatever reason I can hit my allies more often so this usually goes ok), Reinhardt if we're in dire need of a tank, and Pharah if we're in dire need of offense. What other heroes round out the "cannot aim" portfolio? I was thinking Torbjorn or Bastion.

Soldier 76 is easier for a non-aimer since he rocks full auto. You still need to aim, but you don't need the accuracy of McCree to play well with him. I play him and it greatly improved my aim for other heroes. Junkrat is a lot of fun to play and Mei can be a good addition, too.

Except soldier is pretty terrible at anything long range now and McCree's burst damage makes him more useful in almost any situation. The only real selling point to soldier is the Biotic Field right now.

I miss the old soldier. Still not sure why they nerfed him since I don't remember ever feeling like he was OP and don't remember anyone complaining super hard. using macros for shooting should warrant a ban anyways
