My team was playing Orissa. Enemy tank switched to Zarya. My tank stayed with Orissa. After MUCH BEGGING, our tank finally changed… to Mauga (even though we told them to play someone with a shield). Then to D.va. I am so done with idiot tanks in silver 3.

You are in silver. Stop telling people what to play.
If you genuinely knew better, you wouldn’t be in silver.

unlucky that your dps and supports don’t understand that not only their tank is capable of countering the enemy tank. Imagine going hitscans, taking highgrounds to no allow this zarya breath.

Lol. Imagine thinking players skill isn’t a factor in rank.
The dudes silver. They just need to focus on what they bring, and not in blaming others.
Because you don’t like hearing other views.

I agree. But my tank was taking so much damage but I couldn’t consistently do damage even after counter-switching (I play only support) . because all I was doing was healing tank. And because tank was taking excessive damage, I was left with only burst healers that may not be good against Zarya.
me and robotwizard, prett and a bunch of other have different views are are just fine.
its not us, its you.

had this happen last night.
we had a hammond, i was kiri and the co-support went mercy. our dps were barely breaking even, and we struggled despite our hammond executing hammond’s core gameplay loop adequately. then mercy popped into chat and told hammy to switch.
i stood up for ham and basically told the mercy that our hamster was fine, but mercy is an awkward choice with ham. she went kiri and i went moira, and we rolled them. all it took was two supports on the tank’s page, and we carried two wothless dps to victory.
and i hear tank isn’t a lot of fun right now, so why not let them do their best on their tank of choice and the rest of the team work to synergize with that choice.
also the worst offenders for never switching, even into massive diffs and counters are metal dps.

I understand your point. But if the team is not able to synergies (for eg., me not able to get value out of kiri because all I am doing is heal) then tank also needs to step up and switch like the other team is doing. We are all trying. But firstly tank is playing a hard-countered hero plus they are just sitting there taking all the damage. One sec I take my eyes off to heal a dps and the tank is already half health from full!
I sympathize with tanks but if the enemy team is counter swapping for your tank then no matter how much dps/supp switch or synergies, they cannot win because essentially it’s a 4v5.
you can throw two kunai between every heal and still be very close to max healing output.
i get it. support has extremely limited carry potential right now, but you gotta find a way to maximize value if you want to win.
My tank just left because he said he hates the Jews…
Instead of flaming you why don’t you post a replay code or 2 of a game you think you deserved to win?

I just find that in Gold and below, any wins are just happy accidents by whichever team did the least dumb crap.

Well, that’s a different story called skill issue that has nothing to do with the counter.
toxic much. Team based game require team based work.
