1. Lucio
Finally is Lucio, still reigning supreme as best support character in Overwatch 2 as he did in the original Overwatch, and even a quick glance at his setup shows why. Lucio provides continuous healing to any ally in range, so long as he maintains a line of sight with them, and he can swap between songs at will, changing the healing song to one that increases movement speed. Lucio is essentially an all-purpose support character in this regard, helping your team reach their target fast and then keeping them alive while they dig in and fight.
Lucio’s ability amplifies the effect of whichever song he’s currently playing by a significant amount, and while it has a comparatively lengthy cooldown timer, Lucio isn’t without means to protect himself and his team. Lucio has a sound gun that sends concetrated blasts toward enemies and deals a decent amount of damage, and his alt-fire mode knocks them back with a powerful wave.
Lucio’s ultimate is basic, but also one of the most useful in the game, as it provides health to all nearby allies beyond their usual limits. He’s one of just a handful of characters, including Junker Queen, who can do this.
