Every nuance you never wanted to know about ult charge in Overwatch 1 and Overwatch 2.
CORRECTION: 5:17 - there are two more heroes that fit into this category: Reinhardt and Zarya. Both heroes can build ult charge in the time between pressing the ultimate key and the ultimate actually deploying/activating. (thanks McMagicMarv and ax2com)
UPDATE: As Overwatch receives more patches, this video falls further out of date. Here are some (not all) notable changes:
• 1:57 Overhealth now grants 50% ult charge when damaged instead of 0%
• 5:51 Ashe no longer generates ult charge while BOB is active
• 8:29 Ultimate costs change pretty frequently; for up-to-date numbers, check the wiki: https://overwatch.fandom.com/wiki/Ultimate_ability#Ultimate_abilities
