Mauga is an offense focused tank, but you need to watch out for enemy crowd control.

Mauga is an offense-focused Overwatch 2 tank, who has the unique tank ability to heal his teammates. Armed with two massive miniguns, Mauga is designed for getting into combat and dealing large amounts of damage, but this offensive forward design makes him weak to crowd control abilities. As long as you can avoid pushing at the wrong time, Mauga can dominate most enemy tanks. Here's everything you need to know about playing Mauga in Overwatch 2.

Now Playing: Overwatch 2 — Official Mauga Hero Gameplay Reveal Trailer
Mauga is armed with dual miniguns, one that ignites enemies and the other that applies critical damage to ignited enemies. He has a charge ability that knocks enemies out of the way that finishes with a stomp and knocks enemies down if he lands on them. His Cardiac Overdrive ability creates an area around Mauga that lets both him and teammates in the area recover health by dealing damage. His ultimate, Cage Fight, creates an arena with a shield, chaining enemies nearby in the circle, unable to leave.
Incendiary Chaingun: Automatic weapon that ignites enemies on repeated impacts.
Volatile Chaingun: Automatic weapon that deals critical damage to burning enemies.
Overrun: Charge forward and stomp to launch enemies. You are unstoppable while charging.

Berserker Passive: Gain temporary health when dealing critical damage.
Cage Fight Ultimate: Deploy a barrier that traps yourself and enemies. Gain unlimited ammo while inside.

You can fire them simultaneously, but using the left incendiary gun to light someone on fire before dealing critical damage with the right seems more effective. The guns share an ammo pool, so firing at the same time drains them very quickly. You also won't get the bonus critical damage right away, which is important, because it deals more damage and provides you with additional temporary health.
Cardiac Overdrive should be used when you reach about half health, as it takes a moment for health to be restored when you deal damage. You also need to watch out for any crowd control abilities, specifically a sleep or anti-heal grenade from

Blizzard recently introduced its 39th Hero to its multiplayer shooterOverwatch 2, in the form of Mauga, a tall, thick-set Samoan tank who, players have noted, looks rather like Pixar’s portrayal of the Polynesian demigod Maui in its animated film Moana.
