Note Biotic Launcher's secondary fire can't heal Baptiste. This means that you have to rely on fellow Supports, Health Packs, and your Regenerative Burst to heal yourself.
To get the most out of Baptiste's Biotic Launcher, practice alternating between shooting foes and healing allies. Doing this allows you to maximize both the healing and damage output of Baptiste's primary weapon.
Take advantage of Baptiste's Exo Boots to reach high buildings and ledges. Having the high ground as Baptiste allows him to have an easier time landing his secondary fire on allies and even lets him potentially flank the enemy team.
While Immortality Field works well for keeping low-health allies alive, you can also use it to save you and your team from potentially lethal enemy ultimates. Use Immortality Field to prevent your teammates from dying to high-damage ultimates like D.Va's Self Destruct and Junkrat's Rip-Tire.
Regenerative Burst's instant heal is twice as effective on allies below half-health. Try to save it for these situations to maximize the ability's effectiveness, especially since it has a long 15-second cooldown.
Note that Baptiste can rotate his Amplification Matrix by 90 degrees if you press the Ultimate button for a second time before deploying it. Take advantage of this feature to have an easier time covering irregular angles with Baptiste's ultimate.
Dealing with Baptiste can be done in multiple ways. The easiest way is to cut him off from his allies so that it'll be hard for him to heal. Tracer, Genji, and Reaper can be good at this.

As a child orphaned in the Omnic Crisis, Baptiste dedicated his life to helping others, becoming an elite combat medic that worked with the Caribbean military.
Later on, he brought his skills to the Talon mercenary group. While he was earning enough to support a clinic in his hometown, he realized that the violence of Talon was just like the violence that tore his life apart.
He lived on the run for a time, helping others while avoiding Talon, but now he works to help set the world right. After finding out about Talon's intent to go after Mercy, Baptsite tries to warn her.
Though he could not find Mercy, he was able to track down Ana, Pharah, and Cassidy, who decimated the attacking agents.
Baptiste decided to follow Cassidy to Eastern Europe. After fending off more Talon agents and trying to convince Cassidy that he himself wasn't part of Talon, it is pressumed that an invitation to Overwatch was offered to Baptiste.
