I summon the healer tank and bruiser mains 
5 Likes
Because as a tank main, I have some control issues, and just hate feeling like I am at the mercy of whether or not my tank knows what they are doing when a team fight starts. While I can still get damage in if they are clueless, it is far less likely we will secure kills. Seeing a tank yolo into the back line where I canāt reach their target and am left wide open to their Zeratul is disheartening. Having a tank that simply refuses to engage is frustrating. A tank that runs in, dumps their entire kit in a single rotation, then runs and hides behind the healer is maddening.
While I have had good tanks on my team, I would rather be the bruiser or healer as they arenāt quite as dependent on a smart initiation, and can often engage themselves.
Yes, I will engage as a healer. But then again, my most played healer is Lucio!

Healer, because I donāt know what the right call to make is so Iāll just zoom around with Lucio and Li li healing, boosting, or blinding people.
Also, I feel like assassins and tanks have way more responsibility to the game and that is intimidating.

Because if i am going to be forced to go dive because the 4 other wusses stay at max range doing nothing thinking they are good players being passive while making nothing happen and padding stats at best i might as well play a tank.
This is not even sarcasm, i originally began tanking because someone in our group of friends had to do it and i was tired of imposing my dps picks all the time.
I just couldnāt go back to passive games or passive gameplays afterwards.
Also thank god devastating charge diablo and muradin existed so you could have damage if you were not a terribad.
Too bad one is gutted and whinners look at the other and imperius now.
Hopefully playing a tank gets more fun again sometimes.

Healer: its basically my mission to prove to the universe that healers can absolutely carry a game 
And it just feels super rewarding for your entire team to walk out of an even teamfight at full health
Tank: I just find the tanking experience to be A mei zing
Briuser: beacuse yrel is secretly a support

Cause most tanks and healer do not understand the proper timing on engaging, peels is a word most do not even know what it means.

Healer main normally, but I started going back on assassin after a losing streak.
What I have to say is, actually having control over macro stuff is in fact incredibly satisfying. No more ācalled it.ā after a fort gets destroyed by a big wave.

Because my positioning is too aggressive, I feel too squishy and dependent on my tank to do what I want. Being a bruiser main will do that to me.
Iād mostly play Mephisto since I can E in and care less about my positioning. I like Tracer, too, for her diving style and E out. But, I need wave clear. I need to be better at Fenix since he can be very powerful in the solo lane vs certain match-up.

itās mixed up honestly. like itās not hating the role itself i feel comfortable to tank or pick any other role when iām with my friendās but with randoms i never trust them on assassins so i play assassin all time with randoms. when i tank they just donāt understand how to followup i expect much from them but i get nothing so i just 
it off and play assassins only with randoms. only filling with friendās that i can count on to followup when iām a tank or a healer. last time i played Alex no one stands in the circle to heal up they just walk past it and then ask me for heals when they die āheal???ā maaaaaaaan shadap you walked past my heal and then you ask for heal? no heal for you! die nowā¦

Same I have major trust issues if others tank or take the off lane
I agree but to be fair. Im confident in my tank skills but im getting accused reguarly that I dont frontline or peel. Its especially hard when they have a dive hero and I need to hold off the rest while also peeling that target
Or when im the solo tank or have a squichy next to me like qhira or thrall and I need to be in the frontline all the time accourding to themā¦

Bruiser-Main here.
Given that Iām mostly playing QM I have to be more independent from my Team (you just donāt know what you get). I love to play Heroes who can be built in a Bruiser-Style like Orphea or Alexstrasza. When playing Healer I go for Ana, Alex, Rehgar, Li Li (to annoy my Opponents with perma-blinds 
) and lately Deckard (the old fart has some neat tricks up his sleeve).

I like bruisers so I can beat the carp out of assassins. Iām so tired SO VERY TIRED of assassins that just sit back all game to throw potshots at me. Playing a onesided game of dodgeball is not fun, so I like bruisers that can not only spit in their face by moving up to them but also shrug off their puny damage like it wasnāt even there.

As tank/bruiser main I like playing Assasines lately, because my teammates usually focus tank only and never go for soak or camps.
