Best Freja Stadium Builds In Overwatch 2

The Stadium game mode arrived in Overwatch 2 at the beginning of Season 16, introducing a fresh new take on the standard 5v5 matchup. In this mode, players lock in a hero for the entirety of the match and then play a series of mini-rounds to accumulate Stadium Cash. They can then use their earned Stadium Cash to purchase Items to synergize with the various Powers that unlock every other turn, creating their own hero build.

During the S16 mid-season patch, the latest DPS hero in the game, Freja, dropped in Stadium mode. This made her the seventh DPS hero to join the Stadium roster, and players were quick to begin utilizing her in their matches. If you find yourself looking to get started with Freja in Overwatch 2's Stadium game mode, two of the best builds for her have been outlined below.
