A guide to use Gadgets

Being one-time use items, it's essential for you to time how you can possibly make the most out of your gadget. Now that does not imply that you keep on holding onto your Gadget in Overwatch 2 waiting for the absolutely perfect moment, because frankly, that might simply never come.

That said, you have to weigh the pros and cons, and trigger it at the right time to provide yourself and your team a distinct advantage, or to negate the enemy team's pushes in Overwatch 2 Stadium.

We've got a variety of Gadgets in Overwatch 2 Stadium, and these will be available in different rarities. They come at a cost, and naturally, once you get your hands on them, you will only be able to use them once.

If the enemy is running a team that has a lot of debuffs, picking up and using the Kitsune Charm Gadget might be the way to go. If your priority is to push through the frontline, maybe you should opt for Colossus Core. In the end, the best use of your Gadget will mostly depend on your game sense and anticipation. Proper communication will also go a long way in helping you make the most out of these tools.
