Mauga's Strengths & Weaknesses

Strengths

  • Very high DPS at close range.

    Mauga's close-range primary fire DPS is very high, the highest among tanks. As a result, he can generally gain a big advantage in a 1v1 at close range.

  • Hitscan primary fire.

    Mauga's primary fire is hitscan, so it is easy to land against aerial enemies or enemies with mobility.

  • Healing and durability from Cardiac OverdriveCardiac Overdrive

    By using Cardiac OverdriveCardiac Overdrive, Mauga temporarily gains -40% damage reduction and heals for 100% of the damage he deals, making him very durable. Since Nano BoostNano Boost provides -50% damage reduction, this is nearly the same level of reduction.

  • OverrunOverrun that ignores crowd control

    Mauga's OverrunOverrun is not affected by crowd control from abilities such as SleepSleep Dart or Mizuki:E. Also, a direct hit with OverrunOverrun deals 150 damage, so a direct hit can shave off more than half the HP of anything other than a tank. Its cooldown is also 5 seconds, making it easy to create chances repeatedly.

How to Counter

  • Use heroes that can nullify Cardiac OverdriveCardiac Overdrive.

    The reason for Mauga's high durability is the healing and damage reduction from Cardiac OverdriveCardiac Overdrive, so when Mauga uses Cardiac OverdriveCardiac Overdrive, applying a stun or anti-heal, or deploying a barrier to prevent him from racking up damage, makes Mauga melt down quite easily.

  • Avoid burn from Mauga's primary fire.

    Mauga generally gains an advantage by applying burn to enemies, so playing to avoid over-peeking as much as possible, or repeatedly peeking in small increments, makes it harder to take the burn effect and easier to gain an advantage.

Trivia

  • While Orisa is using FortifyFortify, she can escape from inside Mauga's Cage FightCage Fight.
