§ Breakdown [JA only — English translation pending]
高所 = 射線が下に伸びる + 敵から弾を貰いにくい + 戻ったら即安全。High Groundを失う = Spaceを失う = Tempoを失う、の一直線。Pharah/Echo/Widowの強さは「High Groundの自由度」とほぼ等価。
✓ When to Use [JA only — English translation pending]
Stagingの位置選定、Off-angle設置、Ult Cycle前のSafe Spot確保。
✗ Failure Modes [JA only — English translation pending]
High Groundを取ったがLow Groundの味方と分断、合流不能で各個撃破。
