Brigitte’s primary attack, Rocket Flail, has a generous 6m radius with an attack speed of 0.6 seconds. Each strike does a solid 35 damage to the target. The Flail’s wide radius allows Brigitte to hit multiple targets at once, meaning, she can do a hefty amount of damage to all who dare to enter her range.
 

Her ranged ability Whip Shot, has a forgiving 4 second cooldown. The large 20m range allows Brigitte to strike her opponents with 70 damage coupled with momentum stopping knockback that can counter the dives of meta defining heroes such as Winston and D.Va.

 


Brigitte’s main healing source is her Repair Pack. The pack gives the targeted teammate a bulky 150hp almost instantaneously, with the surplus becoming temporary armour. If it is applied to a teammate with full health, they are given 75 temporary armour. The Repair Pack has a 6 second cooldown and 30m range, making Brigitte a reliable and consistent healer.

 

The support’s secondary healing source comes from her passive ability, Inspire. This passive allows her to heal all teammates within a 20m radius whenever she does damage. Inspire heals 80hp over 5 seconds. It does not stack but continues as long as Brigitte is doing damage. This encourages an incredibly aggressive play-style for player’s who want to get full value out of her kit.

 


Brigitte’s Barrier Shield operates exactly like Reinhardt’s in every way but its size. It has 600hp that recharges when the barrier is been dropped. Her aggressive play-style is capitalised with her initiating Shield Bash; an ability with a 5 second cooldown that stuns the targeted enemy (like McCree’s flashbang). It does 50hp damage and can shutdown ultimates such as Reaper’s Death Blossom.

 

Finally, her expansive kit is topped off with the powerful ultimate, Rally. This ultimate gives 150 permanent armour to all teammates within a 10m range over 10 seconds. It also speed boosts Brigitte whilst active. There is no armour cap either; it can stack with Torbjorn’s armour packs and her Repair Packs.
