FAQ
The counter-pick recommendations are currently based on Spilo's counterplay guide. A feature is in development to make this customizable, allowing users to tweak it based on their own experience and playstyle.
Hero categorization is based on Krow's Rock/Paper/Scissors meta theory. Heroes are grouped into dive, poke, and brawl compositions based on their playstyle and synergies. Dive heroes excel at quick engagements, poke heroes are best at long-range damage, and brawl heroes thrive in close-quarters combat.
A customization feature is currently in development. Soon, users will be able to exclude heroes they don't play or adjust counter relationships to match their playstyle.

Yes, there's a known issue with screenshot capture in Overwatch 2:
- The default Print Screen key may activate cursor selection mode, requiring you to press Escape to continue playing.
- We recommend binding an additional key (e.g., Home, Page Up/Down) for smoother screenshot capture.
- However, Overwatch 2 has a bug where the additional hotkey may stop working temporarily. If this occurs, you can:
- Use the Print Screen key as a temporary workaround.
- Wait until the next game, or restart Overwatch 2 to restore functionality.
