Game Designer June Cuervio on Waylay’s gameplay style, “Waylay is the tip of the spear for your team. She is flexible and creative with a lot of options for how she approaches taking the site. Since you have a lot of options for how you use your dash, grenade, and ultimate, you can combine these things to attack from unique angles and vantage points to always keep enemies guessing. That said, Waylay thrives in coordination with her teammates. A well placed Sova dart or Omen paranoia can ensure she gets the frag after dashing rather than having to escape with Refract.”
