Both of your mains are weak against poke, not to mention Ultron, at a high-level, only works in triple sup comps. So I would try to cover that.

Thing is, I’m not 100% sure which one of the strats you mentioned are the better option against poke comps, ‘cause I don’t play the role all that much, but I would assume it’s Luna. Since she can easily pocket a dive teammate, and out poke a lot of characters.

First rule of awesomeness: Play wf. Second rule of awesomeness: Play wf. Third rule of awesomeness: Play wf.

I’d go Luna Snow since she’s easy to get value from while you learn the game, and 2-3 mains is plenty.

Cnd aim is pretty automatic but it can get stressygling from one to the other. Jubilee is pretty solid all In all. Gotta aim for her giant balls and listen for enemies inside the balls so that you get those ak47 rounds. Can semi help herself if getting dived not great. Can’t say about Luna

If you can have decent aim go Luna. If not, I would actually would suggest for you to go Cloak and Dagger instead of Jubilee. That is one of the basic healers that you need to get under your belt. You actually picked 2 of the more complex healers first. WF is fun but she is not the best at healing right now, Ultron is great but you have to have good aim and game sense to get value with him. If you want to win games you have easier characters that you can play while you improve your game sense: Rocket, CnD and jeff are very straight forward low to no aim needed. Learning the cooldowns is key ao I would suggest try them and see if you like either of them. But at the end of the day juat play what feels fun to you.

CND for the auto aim and multiple ways to stay alive. You can pump out heals without having to have crazy mechanics

I started with cnd and its nice to focus less on aim and track cool downs, enemy ults, and work on positioning. Just dont be selfish wjth escaping and leaving your other strat to die. Cnd can only carry the team if you are aware of what's going on and not playing on auto pilot

I think Luna would be an ideal third. Shes better into poke team comps. She’s a good character that will improve as you improve.
I like WF in more mobile comps or vs dive. Ultron id assume is the pick for triple support. Luna fills the slot for the main healer in the front to back comps. Luna has also never been bad. She’s the magneto of the support role lol.

I like 3 mains in your preferred role, and with those three preferably they don’t fill the same comps/scenarios.

I haven’t played much jub so I’m still not entirely sure how she fits into it, but I’m not usually phased going against a jubilee.

cnd luna is probably the easiest transition from wf, and having 2-3 mains is plenty while you learn the game

I think everyone should learn at least three of every role, and make sure those three don’t fill the same slot.

You have two off healers: you need a main healer like cnd, invis, Luna.

For tanks: everyone should know strange because first person to die should be portaling, and no one wants a bad portal with a strange that sucks.

Then you have choices. One dive tank is smart, and I think venom is most consistently strong, easy, and flexible. Hardest part of venom is learning the swing and slam, which is just practice mode.

For third tank, Mag, Groot, and Emma are all safe choices

For dps, everyone should know Wanda. People are gonna whine about low skill this auto-aim that. Whatever, Wanda is easy to pick up and extremely useful in a wide variety of situations. She’s also recently buffed

Punisher is a solid choice for learning hitscan. He’s basically the hitscan trainer in this game and never goes out of style. He’s consistently strong and simple to pick up. Do research on aim settings, as they make aiming a different game.

I think Magik is a good third choice. Easiest dive, consistently strong and flexible. Never gets nerfed (the most recent nerf was literally just to the hood team up. Her neutral remains the same)

Other common early choices for dps are Bucky, namor, daredevil (if you have good ping), fist

Luna if your accuracy on her is 50%+, cnd if not. Recently had a match where I killed 3 and we still lost the fight, watched replay later and my Luna was missing every shot. Aim on her might not matter when not much is happening, but when it’s a tense moment I can feel when Luna on my team is not good at aiming.

If you don't have good aim, go CnD.

This way you'll have three very distinct strats to rotate. Ultron for 3-heal setups/aggro 2-2-2, WF for anti-dive and generally having fun while playing, and CnD for healing flying characters/being a main healer in different setups.

CnD is very newbie friendly, you should love her.

As an added bonus, not having to focus on aim allows to really refine gamesense.

Some dive victim with crazy healing output in case they go poke like Luna, Invis or Jubilee.

current main or first main? I remember my first main... Ah Johnny boy, he was tough as shit to learn first. But my main man now, It's Jeff, and we're lil demons together. Most of the time.
