If the chronal accelerator gets taken out, Tracer is effectively incapacitated and loses control over her powers. Hughie doesn't even have to destroy it because she needs to stay close for it to work so if he manages to grab and TP her like 2 miles away, she's done for. Considering that she's armed, I think he'll just immediately TP and hide somewhere the moment the fight begins then reappear behind her when she least expects it.

Well, I don't see how it will be taken out, Tracer's mobility is great and she keeps teleporting and shooting, like against Doomfist, and Hughie doesnt have combat analysis like Doomfist to be able to pull this and Hughie doesnt even knows Tracer's weakness
I'm voting Tracer

He can just keep teleporting and outlast her. Her device has a limit and if she keeps spamming it, it'll eventually run out of juice and prevent her from using her time abilities while Hughie's only limit is Temp V lasting for 24 hours.
- 16,968

But the fight wouldnt even last that long due to how fast her attacks are, and her device lasts a lot of time tho
- 7,757

Not if she's using it continuously. Speed is equalized and she'll need her powers if she wants to catch up to Hughie because he'll just keep teleporting far away to avoid her attacks.

I don't think Hughie is neither skillfull nor experienced enough to use his ability in such a crafty way and he doesn't know Tracer weakness, while in turn she does very well and it's not that stupid.
Hughie also lacks the whole training, experience, skill and equipment that Tracer has, who's an experienced soldier with years on futuristic battlefield and a variety of skilled and varied opponents, several of whom have teleportation abilities.
I can see Hughie stalling the fight if he's lucky enough, but I fail to pinpoint a reliable winnin strategy or condition for him.

Yeah Tracer is the exact wrong pick for this match, only ones in 8-C who would be worse are Second Key Reaper, Moira, and maybe Genji.
You really need to remember, Doomfist has Analytical Prediction and still had to have two tries to tag Tracer when she's serious about not getting hit. She just shoots Hughie into the next dimension.
Try someone like Cassidy or Zenyatta next time

Should note, this is a weakness that never pops up in combat, and Tracer was using it constantly for a pretty long while before it 'ran out of juice'. She's lasted entire several-dozen minute long missions with her usage of it.

The idea wasn't so much that Hughie would know that he needs to tp tracer, but rather that if he does, he wins via incap. Not saying it's easy or anything, but I thought it was enough of a wincon.
Who did Tracer fought that also teleports? I can't remember.
Tbh, while I didn't pick those lol, it's also true that many of the OW heroes have their weapons scale to High 8-C, even if I were to choose their 8-C keys. So, I would have to also remove their weapons for a match :/

My memory might be faltering a little, but I believe Tracer should have at least crossed ways with Sombra and Reaper, but of whom can teleport, and characters with abilities akin to it such as Symmetra.
I'm out of touch with the "recent" characters so I leave it to chance some of them might have such abilities.
Also, it's worh to note that several characters can fly, leap around, dash, run on walls and are generally very mobile, so Tracer is already adapted at keeping pace with swift opponents, while Hughie is still green in the use of powers.

Uh... only Bastion and Reaper are High 8-C
Probably not Sombra, but definitely Reyes.

why not?

Sombra fairly rarely interacts with people outside of Talon in the cast, the only exceptions being Zarya in the comic and Zenyatta in the "story mode", and we don't even know how the latter went

Damn... I remember when Sombra's trailer was made, it was so peak, unfortunately Overwatch is ignoring all of its own history for some reason
- 52,747
- 47,052
They ignored their own OW2 books with their ages and made Sojourn's sister pregnant at 14 via Soujourn's age, so yeah.
I will say, Sombra will be scaling to Reaper when she comes out of the woodwork of me not 100% caring about her

Tracer literally just shoots him or bombs him, but the idea of Hughie teleporting a naked Tracer gives me something in my pants

Going with Tracer here, mostly because of skill gaps. Tracer can teleport around Hughie at least 6x a second while simutaneously constantly blasting him. Eventually, Tracer will just blow bro up and it'll be GGs.
Tracer low diff.

Like, when did Hughie compare to someone with military training? I'd bet even MM and Frenchie together could whoop him lol
I got OP's idea that it's not impossible for Hughie to figure out an incap condition, but I think it's too slim to count as a viable wincon. Mainly if we take into consideration that he never did it to win against someone who so largely outskills him

I'd imagine Hughie's wincons are his AP advantage and the fact that Tracer might be distracted laughing at his bare butt.

He would teleport and leave the bomb behind though
The wincon for Hughie was "if he teleports her once, he wins because she loses the machine that keeps her from glitching out"
- 7,757

I'm sorry but did you read the previous messages or even his profile? Hughie can't carry anything whenever he teleports. THAT'S WHY HE'S ALWAYS FRICKING NAKED WHILE ON TEMP V. The same applies to people he TPs as well so his wincon is to touch Tracer once and TP her which seperates her from her equipment including the chronal accelerator, incapacitating her.
- 52,747
- 47,052
Not to mention pulse bombs are not anything resembling a first move for Tracer lol
- 7,757

For real. Just constantly keeping her distance and shooting him is a better wincon than trying to get close to pull a Translucent on his ass which not only wouldn't work but also increases her chance of getting touched.

Neither have prior knowledge though, he might not know that that's what he has to do.

Read. My. Comments.
He doesn't need to know. She's armed and his first response to armed opponents is to TP them away to disarm them. He'll basically incapacitate her by accident.
