Slicers are advanced combat units utilized by Null Sector with a plasma cutter for a head. Although less common than Nulltroopers, they make a up a fairly large portion of enemy forces in Overwatch Uprising.

Summary[ | ]

Slicers are frequently encountered in Uprising (Overwatch), and are easier to kill than Nulltroopers or Eradicators. They appear as small, bipedal robots with a design similar to "raptors".

Later, in Overwatch 2, these omnics also appeared as enemies in Overwatch 2's "Underworld - King's Row" Event Mission.

Tactics[ | ]

To keep payload damage to a minimum, most tanks can:

  • Kill the Slicer Quickly
  • Shield the Slicers beam
  • Body Block the Slicer Beam

Uprising[ | ]

While Slicers typically will always attack the Payload with their head-cannons, they can be easily killed by Reinhardt's hammer swings. Unless you let them bunch up, this tiny enemy truly is no problem to deal with.

Underworld[ | ]

Slicers are very fragile to focus fire in underworld, but do not neglect them or they will shred the TS1 robot to ribbons. Knocking them away from the TS1 can give you extra time to kill them if needed.

Trivia[ | ]

  • Slicers do not speak or make any sort of communication attempt.
