The Best Support Stadium Builds In Overwatch 2

Overwatch 2 Season 16 launched the brand-new Stadium mode, bringing something fresh and new for players to enjoy. With no mid-match swaps and a limited pool of heroes to choose from, players will need to commit to their perks and adapt each round by using credits to purchase additional items. By doing so, they can create different builds that enhance key abilities, introduce passives and buffs, and synergize well with the new Powers they choose.

Support heroes can be played in a variety of ways throughout Stadium—from buffing insane DPS builds to help confirm kills, to pumping your heal ability to create impressive levels of sustain through team fights, or even bringing new utility to the field. If you’re looking to get started on the Support role in Overwatch Stadium, a selection of the best builds across the role as of the Season 16 launch has been included in the guide below.

Updated by Grace Black, June 30, 2025: Overwatch Stadium has entered its second season with the launch of OW2 Season 17. Most significantly, this update has added Zenyatta to the Stadium Support roster, and so this guide has been updated to include one of his strongest builds that is quickly working its way into the meta.

The Best Overwatch Stadium Support Builds, Explained

In Overwatch 2 Season 16, which marks the first Season in which Stadium has been available, there are currently six different Support heroes available to choose from out of the complete eleven-hero roster. This includes Ana, Kiriko, Juno, Lucio, Mercy, and Moira. When it comes to these characters, here are five of the best Support builds in Stadium, as of Season 16.

While these are some of the best builds, they will obviously also thrive or struggle depending on the opposition picks. For example, a Moira orb build won’t do as well against a D.Va who can eat these Orbs with ease, as it would against the likes of a Reinhardt or Junker Queen, who has no way to get rid of them.
