Matchmaking requires picking three heroes you're willing to play. Who have you landed on, and why?

Tell us a bit about how you like to play your three, so the rest of us might get an idea of which other heroes we might like to try, too.

I don't have a settled three since I'm still working through all the heroes and finding my favourites. And I'm not that great at the game so don't want to tell people how to play. But I do prefer a couple of heroes.

Paradox is probably my favourite to play. The burst fire weapon helps me last hit, which is nice, and both the grenade and the charged shot are very powerful laning abilities. She has some insane combos you can pull off, and setting up kills with the swap is a great feeling late game when you need to initiate team fights.

Shiv with quicksilver reload on his dagger and extra charges is just a ridiculous hero. Very fun to play and can completely massacre people.

Pocket is the hero I thought I'd like the most when just reading the skill descriptions and looking at the art. Absolutely love the design, and while I need to work on my aim I'm pretty good at juking, which he plays into well. I do struggle a bit in lane with him due to his weapon tempting me to go close range a lot. I'm still mostly ass with him, but hopefully I'll figure it out eventually.
