Overwatch 2: Best Zenyatta Stadium Builds

Overwatch 2’s Stadium mode provides players with a fresh, fast-paced approach to gameplay. In this mode, players select a hero at the start and lock them in for the entire game, meaning no counter-swapping. Players then proceed to compete in a series of quick, high-stakes rounds to earn Stadium Cash for powering up their hero builds with various Items and Powers.

As of Overwatch 2’s Season 17, Zenyatta has been added to the Stadium Support roster, giving players a new option. As one of three new heroes in the Stadium game mode, players are still learning which of Zenyatta’s Items and Powers best synergize together to create strong builds. If you’re looking for a starting point, some of Zenyatta’s best build progressions in Overwatch 2 Stadium are outlined in the guide below.
