Feats

Weaknesses and Faults

 * In his youth; was almost brutally killed by Hanzo.
 * Genji is still haunted by this betrayal and can't decide if he sees Hanzo as a potential ally or mortal enemy.
 * Still has trouble accepting the cyborg body Genji is forced to wear for the rest of his life.
 * Superspeed abilities can be performed only in short bursts and have cooldown.
 * Designed more for flanking rather than front line combat.
 * Low damage output gives him a disadvantage against tanks; especially Winston.
 * Cannot Deflect beams, lasers, streams, sprays or electricity.
 * Cybernetics are designed to be lightweight; Genji does not wear armor and possesses no superhuman endurance.
 * His machine body is covered in lights, which makes no sense for a NINJA.
 * Deflect makes Genji glow and has a very visible pose; an opponent aware of this ability reasonably will not attack Genji during the move.
 * Outmaneuvered by Tracer (during a training match)
 * Defeated by Doomfist
 * Constantly needs healing

Trivia

 * Genji was originally going to be able to hang on walls and use his sword without activating his ult.
