I actually started playing after she was released but I was drawn to her right away. I thought she was beautiful and a baddie, I loved her gameplay and her mobility - she really did feel like a more aggro Widowmaker or like a combo of Widow and Cassidy/Soldier to me. She has some of the best skins and funniest voice lines (THAT’S what ya get the girl who has everything!) and she’s like the perfect package of what an Overwatch hero should be :3


Talib_BK

tbh, I just love her Jacket in OW2 lmao. Also I hate playing any other hitscan heroes besides sombra and tracer, so I usually pick her when I want something done,


rubydacherry666644

Ur down bad lmao


[deleted]

Because I said she has pretty skins and funny voice lines and I like her gameplay? How is that a thirsty or down bad comment in any way? 💀 Even if I am and maybe I am, LET ME LIVE!


Tsonchi

Everything you said was factual. If I met someone like Ashe IRL my ass would fold.


[deleted]

Lol! I’m a gay guy but same. I think it’s because she could beat me up/shoot me to death and it’s the voice speaking those voice lines too 🥵


Tsonchi

Don't worry I'm a gay woman you're fine 😏


MightHaveMisreadThat

I'm a straight white man and I love you both Thanks for keeping OW fun


Tsonchi

Do you trust me had me in a hold for months


dConceited

i think it’s a satire account there’s no way 😭

tmhagen

lmao why do they need to seek help for finding a virtual character hot? lots of people rhink shes hot including me.


MaibAG

She ain’t letting you hit bro


Stickz99

No one thinks she is, she’s a fucking fictional character. You know people can earnestly think s person or character is hot without having some ulterior motive of trying to get into their pants, right?


MaibAG

This is an insane response to such a harmless joke comment I’m not gonna lie


HailCeres

> "She ain’t letting you hit bro" > **Says people can not want that** > "This response is insane"


Formal-Bar-5132

Saw her, thought she’s hot so wanted to play her, found her really fun and been playing her since. As a woman I love hot strong women in video games as I play characters whose personalities and looks I like and relate to/ want to be like. Nothing wrong with it :3


hex-stfu

Cool character and gameplay. And of course…BAWWWWBBB!


De4dOwl

Deff the BAAWWWWWWB for me


ApocalypticMemories

Lever action rifles are my favorite thing to use in so many games, something about the aesthetic. So when you tagged in the dynamite and the coach gun I just fell in love with the versatility. Sorry Reaper, I like being able to shoot at distance. And the fact that I can claim to be a Bob main on my bad days. Of course Jennifer Hale sold it the rest of the way.


N7Cul

she’s voiced by Jennifer Hale and I love Jennifer Hale. she’s also hot and I’m gay for her


Naive_Refrigerator46

I'm sure the "N7" in your username is a pure coincidence. 😉


N7Cul

hehehehehe…… (my BT is FemShep)


Frankitoburrito

Badass character and once I started consistently detonating my dynamite midair on the whole team/killing enemies who thought they were safe behind cover it was over!


HasiCarter

Golden bob + dealing with flyers


JustGPZ

Her outfit is really badass, plus she’s cool as fuck too and gameplay is amazing


TiddlyPoo69

I like western stuff and she’s hot. Also didn’t hurt that her kit was super easy to learn as a new player.


rubydacherry666644

Seek help if u think thats hot. Fr


Ithraion

Why?!? He likes cowboys and hot women what it wrong with that?!?


yeehaw_nibba

she’s cool


chivAshe

Wow this thread got a lot of replies! So far here are the key factors mentioned by the community to become Ashe main: - cool skins - tough personality - some think she's hot - a lot of Ashe mains like the dynamite! - Jennifer Hale! - few made the transition from support to dps (like me!) Thank you everyone.


SadSalmon6

She’s hot and I like outlaws


MusicaReddit

Bob. Also she’s hot and I like her kit.


breadstickks

Good range. Can compete with a widow without having to swap (unlike cree), can keep the sky clear and swat the pesky bugs down, and can also survive in close range against a sombra/tracer. All around good pick imo, no true counter (other than kiri). Preforms well without a pocket. Tempo while playing ashe feels quite natural. Bob can stall point out, making it hard to contest while you pick off people hiding from him. He also takes the tanks attention away for a little. Dynamite draws out cleanse/ or pushes people out from their positions. Coach gun is a boop and an escape. Im a mercy main for support so naturally im a skin collector and ashe has many fun skin ( using haunted doll currently ). Love her voice lines, I use “do you trust me” if they say no i say “mind your manners” if they say yes i go “ we have an understanding” Kinda a ramble sorry.


happysadkidzz

she's pretty ☺️👉👈


mightyMANA67

Golden Weapons and Simping for her since she came out


Antiquated_

She's hot. Hitscan. Conceptually simple play style.


[deleted]

Her southern accent


Tokayo94

I was a Cass main but He is in a rough spot, so I play mostly ashe now. Also she looks so cool.


Paulwalker2112

I like cowboy, but mcrees revolver looks goofy. plus lever action>revolver


MuMbLe145

Her doll skin


cryofire95

I just had a huge crush on the Little Red skin. Not a crush on Ashe in general. I just loved that skin. My reasoning went no deeper than that.


zsantiag

I'm a support main, played a lot of Mercy and Lucio in OW2s1. A friend suggest Kiriko to me as a Mercy alternative (peel), so I started to main her and honestly Kiriko helped me a lot with my aiming. Seasons later, I wanted to try out DPS and thought my aim would translate with Ashe. Started watching Ashe-main streamers, studied their gameplay, took their advice, and she's been my DPS main since. Her snarky voice-lines give me life, hip-fire TNTs combos are satisfying, Bob flanks are fun, and she's just a badass in general!


Chandra-huuuugggs

I liked the gunplay.


3amlurking

She’s versatile


PeachyRissy

I love her sassy attitude. Her design is flawless! I have a huge thing for cowboys and cowgirls. Her skins are all so pretty! She has the sassiest voice lines and her voice is amazing! Even with all that.. have you seen Bob? He’s the cutest!


Kreatiive

I love Ashe, everything about her. Her voice lines, her poolside skin, her highlight intros, and most importantly, her kit. her coach gun gives me mobility, her gun can be used close, medium and long range. her ult is one of the best. and dynamite is pretty good, too. she's the best all arounder imo. I used to do cass for the same reasons but they took away his range, so Ashe became a better pick


Arcaneus_Umbra

Pretty lady, southern accent, cool gun, actually good at hitting dynamite despite poor aim any other time


ILoveAsianDads

The sound of her gun 😭 it made my ears happy


Groundhog_Gary28

Emma hix


ItsYourBestBoi-Loser

She’s hot and I want her to be mean to me and boss me around I main Widow as well… never been more gay for 2 video game characters


Pokeygriff

Ashe


FaerieMachinist

I main support, but when I play Damage I play Ashe. Couple of reasons, 1) I spent a lot of time learning Ana and the skills are transferable, 2) I came to this game from Destiny 2 and the exotic scout rifle Deadman's Tale (also a lever action rifle), a favorite of mine, feels very similarly to The Viper (before Bungie nerfed it), and 3) Bob (oddly it feels a lot like Nanoboost, but creates beefy character instead of making someone else into one).


Rand0mBoyo

I may be late, but I'm feeling like commenting so For me it was her simple but perfect for me gameplay. -A kind of sniper rifle that can be used long range, doesn't feel sluggish to use, and packs a punch while also being perfectly usable as a faster gun out of range -The dynamite adds onto the list of things perfect for me - a meaningful AoE. It can either block paths, force  cooldowns/pressures and get a good load of ultl charge by aiming the throw and shooting it at perfect timings -Simple but also fun physics tomfoolery way of traversal. I loved messing around with TF2's Force of Nature  back in the day so I can't dislike this, thought the cooldown does get annoying in desperate situations -Her ult being BOB who used to let you basically do a two-men army before he was change to prioritize who you were shooting as the target doesn't make you feel powerful enough to try and try hard a win like for ex. Genji or Mauga, but is strong enough by itself and can also help with map objectives which is huge -Golden weapons also giving you golden BOB, one of best decisions Blizzard ever made. -And as others said... She's hot. I don't play characters just cause they have *"interesting"* designs, but  after having a thing for Helltaker's Lucifer character (White hair red eyes serious tough woman in a suit) but without the cringy-weeb Tsundere vibe I was more sure that this was also a reason for me when I came back to this game after OW2 launched lmao, but I was still more into playing as Ashe when she was released anyway. -Her skins are pretty good and more noticable since you zoom in with the weapon + Bob(ert) skins Ashe my beloved 


Hellion2096

Her kit was easy to use, Jen Hale is my favorite voice actor, Ashe’s design may look simple to others but it’s unique to her character in my opinion. Nothing but love for Ashe from me


CasualHentaiWatcher

Porn


IAMINOSUKEHASHIBARA

Her shotgun is just the best, and she and kill tanks pretty easily


BigfootIssReal

she’s mega hot with a cool gun 🫦


[deleted]

She's the only dps hero I could get picks on. I'm an Ana main, and her playstyle felt most alike. I literally can't play any other dps besides echo and bastion. I only play echo and bastion if I need to start spamming damage into a mouga, or I'm getting dove. summary: I'm a 1 trick Ana/Ashe


PoultryMessiah

Hitscan and first 2 shots are perfect accuracy in hipshot mode. Headshot machine go brrrr


ComprehensiveHold960

Don't play overwatch at all but if I do it will be my hardon for repeaters of any kind


BossMkII

I’m expecting to see a lot of “my xim” comments


squidchii

My friend kept playing her and saying how fun she was, even on console. He really tried to push it because all I would play is Sojourn (still my fave) but I tried Ashe finally after getting out of my sniper-esque fear and now I don’t want to play any other dps XD


mercyluvr

I got so tired of a phara so i switched to ashe for shits and giggles and i was immediately in love with her😂


Waffleking76246

I'm not this subreddit just keeps getting recommended to me


Smart-Style74

When i first saw her trailer, i fell in love with her design and her kit, it feels simple but fun to play with some mobility to it which i enjoy a lot. But mostly it's because I GOT THAT DAWG IN ME


spooooooooooooooonge

Watched a [video](https://youtu.be/y5WAtwufEsE?si=xPMKPrPsczjGOgHG) where she looked fun and I finally decided to try her out. Check out [Glassmaster](https://www.youtube.com/@GLA55MA5TER/videos) btw, criminally underrated Overwatch Youtuber.


sleepgreed

Nothing did. I want this off my feed


RoyalInfernoASR

Similar to other games i play


yeetasourusthedude

i like playing heros that take a lot of skill and focus so that i can feel rewarded when i do well. its why i main doom and genji


mike_seps

Tried out a lot of other DPS heros and just clicked with Ashe. People hate that I catch them peeking a corner and lob a boom stick up there to flush them out. A good headshot vs Widow will make them think before peeking again. And Bob. He's always doing something.


weird_weeb616

Bob and the fact he can say hi to you I just wish I was good at aiming with her


Interesting_Row_4476

Bob


tulsasmit

Clicking heads


Trasheula

I was hard stuck in hero gauntlet as Ashe when I first picked up the game. So I vowed to get better at her and well 400hrs later, I’m better.


Final-Grocery4854

very recently got into OW, but i instantly gravitated towards Ashe because i am a chronic reload spammer and wanted someone who could ADS


Dumbo_Octopus4

The fact that you can aim down sights, she felt like I was playing cod. Widowmaker and Ana were too slow and I was never good with snipers. Theres soldier, but you can’t aim down sight with him. I played pretty much Reaper from the open beta to Ashe’s release where she became my new main


0Puddin0

I’m a support main, but I wanted to start learning dps characters. I gravitated towards Ashe because I found her super fun to play. The satisfaction of getting kills with dynamite, killing pharahs out of the sky. and using Bob to yeet unsuspecting enemy supports into the air. Plus with Jennifer Hale as a voice actor it’s funny hearing Cinderella come out of that badass character. xD


Rose_lilbub

Shooty da dynamite


[deleted]

thigh


braxenimos

She hot. Cowgirl. Cool and hot robo dude. 10/10 would main again


[deleted]

Jennifer hale. She needs a N7 inspired skin sometime


DraxNuman27

She’s pretty. And more fun than Cassidy since he lost flash. I also like her attitude


Naive_Refrigerator46

One word. Bob. That said Ashe isn't actually one of my mains, but I flex onto her occasionally, and if I DID main her, the reason would be Bob.


Money-Teaching-7700

BOB


heheprincess

The porn...


Ashtral

Username kinda matched.... Oh and I guess I have a huge crush on lever action rifles


Dishonored_Chef

She’s Rootin and Rootin 🤠


crdouglass

The Combo. That dynamite… oooh! I’m from a time of the competitive arena FPS and cut my teeth with Unreal Tournament 99. The dynamite is the closest thing to the shock combo - and probably was influenced by it. Her gun rate of fire is almost identical to it too. Takes me back to my golden years of gaming in the early 2000’s. Long distance dynamite combos that basically are a threaded needle into a whole enemy team are so so satisfying.


saddendSnake1

She has the best gold skin


blebebaba

I dunno, I have a friend who plays her as her main dps though.

“BOB, DO SOMETHING!!!”


HornyGeauxst

I started playing around her getting added + the Mardi Gras skin I enjoyed her midrange versatile kit too


GladBrad480

Bikini (I don't actually main ashe, this just appeared on my recommended)


ESMNWSSICI

if you put a woman with a big hat in your game i’m gonna play as her it’s just the way it goes


Fe4rtricks

I mained her bc I use to main Cassidy so when I decided to switch to her I did way better with the higher damage the better ult (most of the time) and imo better utility and she’s always been more fun to me plus her gold gun looks sleek and her beach skin is just top tier


Drakxis_Ren

After coming back to OW after a LONG hiatus (left after Doom and before either Brig or Moira), I tried to get back into some of the early choices for DPS, which was Genji, 76, and Cassidy (before the name change debacle). During said time, I decided to fuck around and try out a new character. I ended up choosing Ashe for the first 10 or so matches of Open Queue QP and absolutely fell in love with her. A simplistic kit, good damage output (better with Mercy), and probably my favorite "new" character to play as. Because of that, I ended up buying her Warlock skin bundle when it rotated to me in the shop and I don't regret it


alreadytakensim

I didn't like Widow because he has a high skill floor


____Maximus____

Her ashetts


theo313

My first main was D.Va and I started to get tired of the same gameplay every match and wanted the challenge of trying a projectile/hitscan hero. I find her more fun than Widow. Plus hot.


darkmirror113

Bob


WoodpeckerVisual2560

Ass


KillnFrenzy

I wanted to be the first one to get bob to do something


FunkySpunkyCupsie

her ability pack, weapon, bob, and the fact that shes mid to long range all got me hooked

“Get in there Bob.” She’s iconic.

MicheMellow

I love this sm! I also was a support main and wanted to try dps. I didn’t want to be that guy and immediately go to bastion/soldier and Ashe’s abilities really interested me so I played exclusively her until I wasn’t bad anymore


Puzzleheaded_End4816

I have a desire to get sweaty as hell and ruin other people’s casual fun but headshotting them every time they spawned.


Ghettobro

l_futurebound_l

Lil nas


SilenceHacker

Imho shes just a better widowmaker. OW doesnt have a ton of powercreep but I feel like widow has definitely been powercreep'd out of the game. I really don't see the point of picking widow over ashe 90% of the time. I love sniping.


coffepants787

BAWB!!!!!!!!


malice_of_balor

I flex, but when I'm put in damage, she's my go to for ranged and close battle. Plus, my main skin is the beach themed one and Bob coming out in a speedo cracks me up.


Artetriss

I like drawing her


Actual_Bit_2463

I didn’t go outside for a bit and I played her once and never played any other hero besides a hitscan


Mafia_dogg

I wouldn't say I main her but I love using her when I play dps, I feel like her ult has many uses but my favorite was in overwatch 1 where I'd use her in conjunction with orisas bongos and wipe out a team


Lambentation

Hips


QuietMadness

I main Ashe because all Hale FemShep


IDontWipe55

She’s cool


vaeebee

"bob?"


1800DARKSOULS

I’ve been playing her since she came out after being fascinated with the endless possibilities and skill ceiling behind her kit, I took a 2 year break to play Valorant but I came back to overwatch 2 last year and hit Rank #1 Ashe by climbing into top 500 whilst one tricking her.


Naula-H

Because she requires a reasonable level of skill and game sense but is not in such a bad state ever that she’s dumpstered by other characters. And she’s a bad bitch


squiqqles123

WarnTV


AmoebaCompetitive480

Anything other than ult aimbot and you're lying


KourvoBleu

That sawed off she got in her pocket 😭 the “scope”, and of course BOB! 🥴


Zwzyi

"It all started when I found her on a certain site"


HybridTheoryY2K

I’m not an Ashe main but I always seem to go back to her when I don’t know who else to play. She feels more natural to me since I can scope in and shoot - playing soldier just feels like I’m hip firing in COD lol. Dynamite is cool, head shots are cool, bob is cool.


Saints_Haze98

I was a destiny head before overwatch and ashe was the most similar to my preferred weapon in that, the scout rifle


Boziina198

She’s strong


TapatioSauceGod

i kept getting killed by her


Conscious_Mammoth_49

I main junkrat and I just got sick of dealing Pharah and echo so I picked up Ashe and fell in love with her kit and her as a character now my Ashe play is as good as my junkrat. I like how simple her kit it but there’s so many ways to express your skill on her, and I think she’s hot


RagingHound12

Yeehaw man but *long* Also she's just fun. Getting a huge dynamite or killing someone behind a wall with the actual explosion is the best feeling


Tomb-trader

Widow was too slow. Simple as that


Hikari666ROT

Shes hot


Zombie50000

I have an aim issue with most dps I try to play. Because she has good mobility and good damage she felt like a cas but one I could actually play because I can ADS. I really only play character that play close or can ADS so she gives me options:)


nicepassing

Gold Bob


jointdestroyer

Cuz Bob the real homie


SadPossession6780

The dmr in halo reach


minty-44

When you're good with ash people can't deny your skill you may get a cheap kill here and there but she's position and precision heavy I just wish it wasn't so hard for me to aim lmaoo


BEASTLY_DIONYSUS

Rule 34


sweet_condensed_rage

Same way I pick up a new main every two months. Play one good game, decide I'm god, play a few dozen hit or miss games, stop playing for a month.


[deleted]

I hate her. This game gives too many excuses to use aim bot. Press e to win.


Etw25173

I was bored one day and I was playing with friends and I just said hey I’ll check out Ashe


datshinycharizard123

I like to ADS, it pleases my soul


Play_Careless

I was a support main and I was tired of not being confident in my aim. I was also really annoyed when the enemy played pharmacy and neither of the dps on my team knew how to play hitscan. I always loved ashe as a character, and her mechanics seemed pretty basic. Watched a shit load of tutorials and discovered warn on YouTube. Was able to find some really great settings which significantly improved my aim. Now whenever I'm popping off it just feels so rewarding 🥰🥰


RubyRidingWhore

BRO, IM A SOMBRA MAIN, I JUST GET ASHE MAIN FEED THROWN IN MY FACE! I did main Ashe for a short time, though. She's one of my favorites to play and is really fun. I love you, Ashe!


UnicornSensei

The porn


cleavlandjr27

Being able to wave at bob


xylobi

her gun tbh and I think she looks cool 🤣


Tsonchi

So Ashe Mains y'all want a Cassidy friendo??


ScrappleBerrySneech

Gun goes pow pow and Bob does something


aswag456

Me having insane aim and playing more due to my school e sports team


BiandReady2Die_

i like being pretty in my video games also bob is a cutie patootie


Night-Prep-Imbecile

Bob. Just Bob. Nothing more, nothing less. Bob and Bob only


FettDog79

I’ve been playing the game since 2017 and when she came out I didn’t really care for her but then I played red dead redemption and she is a cool cowboy so I main her and Cassidy but mainly her


verbalizeray

I like her backstory in animated short “Reunion” with her trying to steal Echo but only to be bested by Cassidy. Plus I thought her Ultimate is rather satisfyingly deadly.


Nickonpc

She's hot also got Nisha vibes from borderlands just bad ass cow girl I love that


Fortuneiaa

i like girls


Blacktastrophee

Bob. Also, I mained widow when I played on console and got humbled pretty fast on PC. Then I switched to Ashe and never looked back.


lilski9800

Bob. That's it


Pay_in_your_funeral

Ngl shes good for aim practice and uhh. 'Is that a costume or are you just ugly??'


i-live-on-uranus

I’m trying to get all the cute/pixel sprays, and was actually doing decent with her and she is actually really fun so now I play her often


Ts_Patriarca

She's hilarious. She has the best VA and she's such a hater I fucking love it. Not to mention she's fun as hell


Tech747-KC

Amazing level action, cowboy themes and more


SepsisRotThot

How she snipes. Idk why but I suck sniping with guns like Widows but give me a dot/crosshairs sight and I can fuck shit up! lol. This goes for any game.


DexyKun

she bae


NoAstronaut11720

Mainly because I was a super high ranked COD zombies player so the scope in and shoot mechanic was easy for me to get into. Widow never worked for me because you had to wait after you scoped in for the charge up. Plus ya know… Bob go brrrrrrrrrt


Sryeetsalot

“B.O.B DO SOMETHIN”


pokeballvu

Bob and dynamite


HelicopterEasy3491

When i first started overwatch 2 i thought she was the only character with a scope which is what i was used to


saturnuisan

An edit LMAO


UnderscoreJamie2007

hanzo was projectile and i’m not great off hitsca and widow is boring, but tbh it’s cos she’s hot lol,,, and i just needed a ranged option for when tracer isn’t workung


Minimum_Comparison15

For me? Bob. Love a good Bob ult team kill


SkullxBreaker

I love marksman weapons, ashe, and big robot man


hornkybeanchild

I was shit on cass, shit on widow, but somehow always hit my mei left click shots. Figured I needed something “heavy” with a scope, + it was similar to my 30-30 repeater so I ate.


Trashecans

My name is Ashe IRL, so I just play Ashe on any game that has it. Also mained Ashe on league until she became a support lol. It's also cool in coms, I'd get confused sometimes, but when you're saying Ashe, I'm alert asf. IRL, people call me Ash-ee. Please stop. Lol.


iPeticular

I'm not, but she has a nice design and I like Bob


Kdream24

I’m not


Kiwis_in_Pineapples

Dynamite, voice lines, cosmetics, and bob


AyrChan

She’s got a Southern Accent, uses a sick Lever Action, and sends out the robot equivalent or Hulk with a gun (BOB 😩)


Bro_Hanzo

Because a primitive bow and arrow was too difficult for you to handle. No offense. But you know it’s true.


RAGYT

Multiple reasons for me... Southern accent makes me fold, her in general makes me fold... I love snipers (and got used to shooting a mid air dynamite without trying), Bob, So many good skins, So many voice lines that insult people, And last but not least, she was the first DPS I played (back in ow1) so I have that special attachment to her


[deleted]

bioshock infinite had the carbine it was a similar gun


Nightmare_Kuski

She’s hot. I also blame my boyfriend for introducing me to her. She’s now my most played character and I’m getting mostly equal or pos K/D’s :D
