Overwatch Tank Heroes Tier List August 2020

Overwatch tank heroes serve as the iron bastion between your team and certain doom.

Overwatch's tanks are often the characters who carry the main meta of the game. After all, being up front is a big job, so it makes sense that the characters on the front lines would shoulder the most weight.

Below you'll find our recommendations for August's best team shields.

Overwatch Tank Heroes Tier List August 2020

S-Tier

• Sigma
• Orisa

The barrier meta persists with these top rising to the top of the list. Sigma has been a powerhouse since his release and Orisa seems difficult to top on the battlefield.

A-Tier

• Reinhardt
• D.Va
• Roadhog

Reinhardt, though a barrier tank, finds his spot in B tier with D.Va and Roadhog. Rein and D.va are still viable in the top tier as long as their team supports them. Roadhog tends to be a more situational choice for aerial targets, but his tough skin puts him above the rest.

B-Tier

• Winston
• Wrecking Ball
• Zarya

At the last tier we have Winston, Wrecking Ball, and Zarya. Winston, unfortunately, has been out of play since the beginning of the barrier meta. Zarya, while still useful, is often only picked for her bubble which places her and Wrecking Ball as situational choices.
