He modeled himself on professional Overwatch player Ryu "Ryujehong" Je-hong, by studying his playstyle, game settings, and choice of computing peripherals.

[9] For this, Blizzard created a special cosmetic skin for Zenyatta inspired by Bang's background, which was made available for players to purchase during the 2019 Overwatch League season.

[13] In the 2019 playoffs, the team defeated the London Spitfire and Atlanta Reign in the first two rounds, with Bang primarily playing as the character Moira.

Bang said that this choice was due to his usual characters, Ana and Zenyatta, being ineffective given the current team composition meta of the league.

[14] However, a 3–4 loss to the Vancouver Titans dropped New York to the lower bracket of the tournament,[15] where they were defeated by the San Francisco Shock, 0–4, ending their playoff run.

They played in the finals at BlizzCon in Los Angeles against Australia, the United Kingdom and China, winning all matches and being crowned the Overwatch world cup champions for a third consecutive year.

Zenyatta's two main abilities are orbs of harmony and discord, which can be assigned to other players to heal teammates and increase a damage multiplier on enemies, respectively.

Bang's skill with Zenyatta descends from his ability to predict enemy movements, aim with precision, and take risky moves, which altogether let him make long-distance sniper and trick shots better expected of players in damage-focused rather than support roles.

This nontraditional strategy contributed to the New York Excelsior's standout debut standings[1] and the two support players' receiving the highest season rankings.
