From WinCon's coaching read of each hero's abilities, the same one the coach uses: a guide, not a measured win rate. Blizzard doesn't publish how heroes do against each other.

Heroes that counter Sierra

Pick one of these into an enemy Sierra, or watch for them when you play Sierra.

Tanks

  • D.Va (strong counter): Defense Matrix eats the Tracking Shot dart and rifle
  • Sigma (strong counter): barrier and Kinetic Grasp block the Tracking Shot dart
  • Winston (strong counter): jumps her angle; she lacks burst to break his bubble
  • Roadhog (slight edge): Trash Compactor absorbs her rifle shots

Damage heroes

  • Genji (strong counter): Deflect returns her rifle and he dives her angle
  • Cassidy (slight edge): higher burst wins the duel and Flashbang locks her grapple

Supports

  • Moira (strong counter): Fade cleanses the mark and dodges her ultimate
  • Kiriko (slight edge): Protection Suzu cleanses the mark

Heroes Sierra counters

Sierra is a good answer when the enemy plays one of these.

Tanks

  • Junker Queen (slight edge): off-angles keep her out of reach
  • Mauga (slight edge): big target for tracked sustained fire

Supports

  • Jetpack Cat (strong counter): Tracking Shot locks her rifle onto a flier
  • Mercy (slight edge): Tracking Shot follows a Mercy in flight

Sierra against dive, brawl and poke

  • Bad into dive: divers reach her angle once Anchor Drone is used
  • Good into brawl: off-angles and tracked fire punish slow brawl tanks
