Fast doesnt always mean easy, though.
Hes also not your typical DPS hero and works better in the shadows instead of on the frontline.
Here’s how to efficiently play as Genji.

Genjis mobility is unmatched.
He can even reflect incoming projectiles, an ability typically reserved for tanks.
Mobility is important, but it also means healers who arent Kiriko struggle to keep up with Genji.
He lives up to the praise, to e sure.
However, he requires practice and a different kind of playstyle to shine.
These abilities arent foolproof, though.
Wall climbing works better when Genji speeds past an opponent with Swift Strike and leaps away before they recover.
Since the animation takes a few seconds, youre vulnerable before you reach your destination and can get away.
Greatness at a cost
Genjis ultimate is powerful, but you should use it with care.
It takes a couple of seconds to activate, during which time hes vulnerable.
Every ninja has their limits
Like Tracer, Genji is better suited to picking off weak targets.
Reinhardt is the exception, since his moves are slow and cant reach Genji easily in high places.
Genji doesnt have much recourse against him.
