Understand Her Weapons
Juno’s primary weapon, theBurst Fire Pistol, is a powerful tool in her arsenal. It offersexceptional healing output,especially whenpocketing a tank. However, this also makes Juno a primary target in team fights, asenemies will dive her more aggressivelythan other long-range supports like Ana or Zenyatta.

Understand Who Juno Is Good With And Against
While Juno shines in providing support and mobility, she is also ahighly vulnerable targetdue to her lack of self-sustaining abilities.

Additionally, her speed boost makes her aneffective counter to airborne threatslikePharah. Despite her strengths, Juno’s survivability relies heavily ongood map awarenessandpositioning, as she can be easily targeted without proper support.
