@RECON-DRIZZ Well I think I can give you some tips. You might start by watching some of Shiv videos on youtube. He's probably one of the top, if not one of the best Bang players out there.
The ult is really dependent as to what you're trying to do with it. In general the big key to using the ult to its maximum is learning how to time it. The ult falls in the exact same pattern, with the exact same timing every time. So you can learn how to run through it without getting hit by it.
When I use it to push enemies I often throw the ult on them and wait for it to go off. While I'm waiting I'm throwing my nades at them or sniping at them with their a mid range weapon or a sniper. I typically don't throw it on enemies I'm rushing unless they are already fighting. I typically save it incase we get third partied.. If we have people trying to third party us I can throw my ult on the third party.
I also tend to shoot them with my smoke when I throw my ult on them. It's much more difficult for them to avoid it if they can't see.
You can use it to buy time. This is how I use it the most. Go into the fight, knock someone and need to pop a bat.. Throw my ult down on the enemy, smoke myself and hit the bat. This does a few things for you 1. it might eliminate the person you knocked and 2. it prevents the enemy from reviving the person you knocked, it also buys you some time to hit the battery/cells

@DarthValtrex Personally I wouldnt watch the youtube vids. They are misleading so always the best games. Watch his twitch streams and you'll see all sorts of crazy.
- DarthValtrex5 years agoHero (Retired)@hayhor That's a good point. The other point to make about Bangs ult, it's not always about hitting enemies with it. It can still be useful even if you don't hit them. If it splits up the enemy squad you can pick them off 1 by 1.
