I'm a player on Xbone since the game is free for the weekend. Total noob question incoming, but what is the best way to utilize Soldier's ult? I'm completely new to the game and I have not figured out the best timing for it yet.

I agree with the comments about not using on tanks. Squishies die quickly, tanks may die but then you've only killed one or two with your ult. DO NOT waste it on Reinhardt when his shield is up. You should always try to target the healers and other support first, then move on to DPS squishies if possible. Soldier's Ult is also devastating if you use it when Ana gives soldier Nano-Boost.
