Heroes that work well with Bastion

Good partners for Bastion: pick one beside them, or pick Bastion beside one.

Tanks

  • Orisa (good pair): Fortify and Javelin Spin hold the front he shoots behind
  • Reinhardt (good pair): shield walks him in for Assault
  • Sigma (good pair): barrier covers him while he is in Assault
  • D.Mon (decent pair): Assault from behind Power Barrier

Damage heroes

  • Symmetra (good pair): Teleporter drops him on an angle they do not expect
  • Freja (decent pair): Bola Shot holds a group for his Assault fire

Supports

  • Baptiste (good pair): Amplification Matrix doubles his Assault fire; Immortality Field keeps him alive
  • Brigitte (good pair): Barrier Shield and Whip Shot keep divers off him
  • Doctrine (good pair): Invigorating Drones' attack speed on his minigun
  • Jetpack Cat (good pair): towing Bastion in Assault turns him into a flying turret
  • Juno (good pair): Orbital Ray's damage boost on Assault melts the front line
  • Kiriko (good pair): Suzu cleanses the Sleep, anti-nade or EMP that stops his Assault
  • Lifeweaver (good pair): Grip saves the stationary turret; Platform lifts Assault onto high ground
  • Mercy (good pair): damage boost on Assault fire and steady healing for a slow target

Heroes that clash with Bastion

These pull a different way from Bastion: the pair can still work, but it takes more care.

Tanks

  • Winston (clash): a static turret that needs protecting while he jumps away
  • Wrecking Ball (clash): needs a barrier and peel; Ball gives neither
  • D.Va (minor clash): needs a barrier tank to hold ground; her Matrix is short and she leaves to dive
  • Doomfist (minor clash): dives deep where Bastion cannot follow
  • Roadhog (minor clash): needs a barrier to stand behind; Hog has none

Damage heroes

  • Genji (minor clash): static bunker plan beside a deep dive
  • Tracer (minor clash): a deep flank plan beside his static bunker plan
