Genji's ultimate, Dragonblade (Ryūjin no ken wo kūrae!), is a "transformation" ultimate where he draws his katana.
A forward dash that deals damage. Its most critical feature is the reset : if Genji gets a kill or assist, the cooldown is instantly refreshed, allowing for "dash resets" to chain kills or escape.
Genji flings three shurikens either in a straight line (long-range) or in a wide fan (close-range burst). Mastering the "leading" of these projectiles is essential due to their travel time.
Allows Genji to climb walls and double-jump, making him one of the hardest targets to track vertically. Ultimate: Dragonblade (斬)
Activating it makes Genji a high-priority target. Mistakes in target priority can lead to a "dead blade" if he is stunned or focused down quickly. Strategic Standing Pros Cons Exceptional vertical and horizontal mobility High skill floor; difficult for beginners Can "snowball" fights through dash resets Hard-countered by beam and CC (crowd control) Strong "flank" potential to eliminate supports Reliant on teammates for healing and buffs
It allows for massive sweeping melee damage that can wipe an entire team when combined with speed boosts or damage buffs (like Ana's Nano Boost).
He brandishes his wakizashi to block and redirect incoming projectiles back at enemies. This is his primary survival tool, though it cannot block beams from heroes like Winston , Zarya , or Mei .
