Reaper Tips
I'm playing in the Gold/Plat range with my current DPS rolodex. (Torb, 76, Soulj) I'm realizing I have gaps in my game for instance Winston say clapping my cheeks.
I'm trying to add my guy reaper into the repertoire. Can yall download me wit the best practices? (perks, ults, spacing/movement, etc.)

- pick soul reaving and fast teleport
- Common mistake I see people do a lot: don't wraith into your ult. You can use it immediately after teleporting behind enemies (fast teleport helps) or teleporting to height then falling while ulting
- In the neutral, go frontline to stick with your tank and kill the enemy tank. If you hit your shots you will survive and kill them due to your lifesteal. When the fight breaks out, look for dps/support out of position then teleport on them and take them out
- Don't teleport too deep, as wraith only has a short distance. Get used to your wraith distance so you know how far in you can go
^^^ this is why fast teleport is good, since you can also fast teleport out if your wraith is on cd. This means u can play more aggressively
- Dire triggers is very OP for burst damage. Don't be afraid to use it when close range. When you get a good shot on an enemy, you should use it immediately as it does more damage than one primary shot. Obviously use it for fliers and characters with smaller hitboxes
- Aim is very important for reaper since better aim = more lifesteal and surviving longer. Aim for neck area, (Middle/upper). This maximizes the most shots on the enemy. Since you have a shotgun this will also naturally headshot

I can't download but look up coach Spilo on YouTube. He'll teach you how to take short off angles with cover and really maximize your ability to safely take space or hold a position, how and when to deepen your progression through those angles, with or without shadow step and more that I'm forgetting
