It puts me under to pressure to perform and I feel bad when I don’t get kills for the ana with it, which I usually don’t.

Being nanoed feels good. Being nanoed at a bad time feels bad because you usually cannot recover and then get kills.

No hate, but this kind of sounds like a skill issue. Or maybe bad timing on the Ana’s part. Also, judging by your DvA Icon, I’m going to assume you play her, if you get nanoed, when you use DvA bomb, it gets rid of the nano.

Depends, as Nano has different uses. Such as making someone a psudo raid boss, to get them out of there alive, or to make plays.

You really gotta stop speaking of skill issue for everything, he’s just saying he doesn’t like being nanoed because it’s stressful for him, nothing to do with skill
And if you die as baby DVa during DVa Bomb while Mech is Nano’d, then Ana gets 5 million in mitigation.

I know that lol. I’m just saying that the pressure it puts me under to perform usually means I don’t get much value from it. Like do I push forward in an attempt to get kills, or do I stay and defend the team?
My goal would be to create space and have the team move into that new space usually if the team is somewhat coordinated.
It’s a situational thing at that point I would say. You will also run into times where you can’t really do anything with the nano, because the Ana panicked or they plan on switching and just wanted to get rid of it.
If the nano gave you an opening, go for it, but don’t sacrifice yourself because of it.

Hang on, aren’t we supposed to nano people after a team fight or before the enemy is in range just to mess with dps anxiety?

While cruel, I imagine it would be funny for the Ana just to watch them panic and not know what to do.
Gotta nano your mercy in qp too. Theyre just itching to go battle mercy, yknow? They’re way more violent than a low elo Rein who would rather use nano to hold his shield up.
Depends on my pick. If I go something like Rein, I just go in and if I die, that’s on the support for giving me so much power and not using it.
If I go something like Widow, idk what they expect me to do with the nano.
The only times I’ve been Nanoed outside of OG Junkenstien I’m certain the Ana was memeing, I accidentally blocked the Nano, or she was using it to keep me alive.
I can think of no other reasons to Nano Mercy after Valk got the pewpew nerfs.
Being serious for a second, uh, no it’s not on the support if you die as Rein with nano. The same rules apply as normal. You have a barrier, hp pool and the environment as your resources. You have to use all 3 resources to stay alive as long as possible. Unless you’re trading your life for like 2-3 of theirs then when you die your team will likely just flop over.
I dont really like getting nano when it wasnt meant for me, but I still try and make it work. It usually happens when Im on Lucio, but sometimes mercy as well. Getting it when it was meant for me can be fun, depending on when and where I get it.
Obviously they want you to click the enemies heads 50% harder.
No, I think we’re supposed to save it for the the start of the next round/game.

whenever im being nanoed, my two braincells decided that positioning is a useless skill, now I must go in and feed.
It depends on the situation for me. If I’m on dps, I don’t really like it because I’m actually really bad at dps so I do tend to panic and am unable to focus on any enemy, I just try to shoot them all and it doesn’t work. But occasionally when I play dps, I do have games where I’m just popping off and hitting my shots, and in those games I don’t mind getting nano’d because my confidence was already high, so I’m more able to focus and just keep doing my thing.
If I’m on tank, I usually don’t mind getting nano’d unless I’m low powered Zarya. Then I feel the pressure and I start using bubbles recklessly to try to get charge and a kill so I don’t waste the nano.
But all told, as an Ana main, the only times it bothers me that nano gets wasted is if I nano a Dva and she immediately sends a bomb out, not sure if they think nano boosts bomb or not, it doesn’t, so this is always an iffy nano for me. I want to give her the boost for the sustain so she can bully the squishes and secure kills, but a lot seem to think this is me telling them it’s time for bomb. Not what I wanted.
And then the other times is really my fault and not the player’s fault, but when I’m targeting someone for nano and someone else suddenly crosses in front and steals the nano. Moira, Sombra, Lucio, and now Kiriko are the most common heroes this happens with for me. Kiriko is exceptionally annoying because she just appears out of nowhere to heal the tank I’m about to nano and accidentally steals it.
Me on Moira, I like to be aggressive with my ult and the ana never nanos me… but the ONE time I use it to focus hard on healing with it the Ana will probably nano me 
I don’t wanna be nano’d for that reason lol
Like I’m standing around the corner in an emergency situation with my heal orb out and ulting healing the tank and you wanna nano me like bye why u not use it on our tank who needed it wayyy more dkskaskdskda
