Understanding Payload Objectives:
In Payload mode, one team must escort a payload to its destination, while the other team defends and attempts to stop the progress. Success hinges on teamwork and strategic positioning.

Key Tips for Attackers:

  • Tanks Lead the Way: Heroes like Riot should stay close to the payload, using their defensive abilities to absorb damage and clear a path.
  • DPS Clear the Opposition: Zulu excels at eliminating threats that block the payload’s movement.
  • Supports Sustain the Team: Tesla’s healing ensures the attackers remain in the fight during prolonged engagements.

Key Tips for Defenders:

  • Use chokepoints to slow down the payload’s progress. Riot’s crowd-control abilities can disrupt attackers effectively.
  • Focus fire on enemy supports like Tesla to weaken the opposition’s sustain.
  • Always stay aware of alternative flanking routes to prevent surprise attacks.

Pro Tip:
Timing is critical. Save ultimates for pivotal moments, like contesting the payload in overtime or clearing a chokepoint during an attack.
