- Brigitte’s Damage, Damage Blocked and Armor Provided stats should all be around the same number.
- Brigitte’s Healing should be double that number.
If these statements are true, you’re probably winning games on Brigitte.
Non.
Fritz I’ve seen your threads for a long time now
and I still do not know what you try to accomplish when you make posts like this

They W+m1.
Gm brigs average 6.5k dmg but only 9.3k healing, they must suck then, why not 13k healing.

Based on the much earlier ones, I believe the overall goal is to create the appearance that Brigitte is a grand beacon of unrecognized skill potential in Overwatch, extending beyond the skill caps of Tracers and Widowmakers and anything else people might aspire to be good at.
… But the approach seems to get stranger each time.

Wow. I guess my posts have more meaning than I thought. Glad you benefit from them.

Stats don’t tell the whole picture. The only way to tell a good Brig from a bad Brig is to watch them play.
Contrary to popular belief, there is a clear difference between Good Brigs and Bad Brigs. When I play Brig, I have two goals: 1) support my team through utility and AoE healing and 2) make the enemy team HATE me. When I play Brig, I aspire for the enemy team to hate me: I want them to tilt. I want them to make silly decisions and switch heroes to try and counter me, because in the end, the first team to tilt is the first team to lose.
So yeah, my goal when I play Brig is to make you hate Brig even more and complain about it XD

Isn’t deluding yourself that Brigitte takes skill, good enough?
No need to drag everyone else down…
Brig doesn’t take mechanical skill, but she (like Reinhardt) requires a lot of gamesense, and there is a psychological aspect to playing her. I earlier posted that when I play Brig, my goal is to get into the mind of an enemy player and make them angry. I want them to be angry that their Tracer is being erased by a “low skill hero.” In the end, that is sometimes what separates a good Brig from a bad Brig. A bad Brig dosen’t instill fear in the enemy team. A good Brig makes you want to hate her, and then feeds off of that hatred XD

Is this post supposed to be ironic or… Was that just a coincidence?
Hey Fritz, what are your thoughts on Hammond+Zarya+Brig?
I’m sitting here trying to think how this could be possible, but I now feel certain she requires the least amount of game sense of the entire hero pool. Absolutely the most forgiving regarding positional game sense of any non-tank.
Out of position? she has a shield. Over extended? she has a shield and a bash that can be used like a blink from Tracer.
I’m not saying she requires no game sense, only that every single other hero requires more than she does. She has the most sustain of any non-tank, the most non-specific ultimate (except perhaps Mercy’s.)
Are we currently in a teamfight? Ok, press Q. Its literally that easy.
Believe, one wrong move and you can be erased. 500 health shield is not that much (I mostly play Rein and even my 2000 point barrier is gone in no time; granted, the shield is larger and easier to hit, but seriously, you really have to have potato aim to miss Brig’s shield).
If Brig did not require a large amount of game sense, then we wouldn’t see so many OWL players struggle to utilize her kit (and these are pros who are paid to play Brig). It is all about positioning; believe me, it’s easy to kill a Brig if you know what you’re doing. When I play Reinhardt, I’m not that intimidated by most Brigs. Only rarely have I ever been outdueled by one (and this was even before the shield bash nerfs). Tbf, I’m not intimidated by much as Reinhardt (except maybe my own team’s inability to work with me haha), but the fact of the matter is the whole image that Brig has gained as a noob hero who is unkillable is just that: an image. She’s not unstoppable, nor is she not take skill to play: that’s just what Brig players want you to believe.
She doesn’t take a lot of game sense like Reinhardt.
A player getting tilted has more to do with the player himself than the people he’s playing against.
You’d like to think so wouldn’t you?

As someone who plays Brig semi-regularly and Reinhard a LOT (300+ hours), I can safely say that I emphatically disagree with you. And yes, tilting the enemy is, in the end, the single most valuable skill you can learn in Overwatch.
I can safely say most Brigitte mains will be horrible at Rein if forced to flex to him because Brigitte has twice the tools and half the responsibility of Reinhardt.
No, because that doesn’t work against everybody so it is far from the single most valuable skill.
The most valuable skill is something that you yourself control, such as game sense, knowledge or mechanics.
Of course you need to control yourself, but at the end of the day, people are scared of Brigitte. If I am playing her, I don’t want that image dispelled. If I’m playing her, I want you to hate her. The same would be true if I were playing Mei (another character who’s known for tilting people off the face of the Earth).
Also, any mind can crack under pressure. It can work against anybody.
To reiterate, I’m not saying she requires zero gamesense-- only less than the others.
500hp shield… hm, how big is the shield on Zenyatta? How bout Ana?
And regarding “one wrong move” give me a break. Have you ever played Pharah? McCree? Ashe? Tracer?
Other than a widow headshot that kills her (and everyone else i mentioned, and all of the 200hp hero pool) she has more sustain than any other hero.
Jam a Genji into the middle of a Goats brawl and see how long he lasts. Or again, McCree. Or if we want to use supports, slide Ana in there.\
I’m not trying to pick an argument here really. And (as a support main) I definitely know her value, and her kit. But she doesn’t require any more skill than any other hero. Its definitely less than any other support, and less than any other hero.
Unless all those numbers are low. 
Fair enough, but again, she is designed to be a tank-healer hybrid. If she wasn’t as durable, there would be no reason to pick her over Lucio, Zennyata, or Ana.
No worries, I’m not trying to pick an argument here either. I do agree, she does have less of a skill floor or ceiling that most (if not all) the other supports. That being said, I would say people underestimate the amount of skill it does take to play her.
