So, Who is the Best

HEALER in the game?

Not interested killing the enemy is the best healing argument.

Ana and moira have the highest hps i think, if they use their abilities right.

Bap and illari are up there too.

Ana. She has nade. Its no contest imo.

In terms of burst its probably Moira whose second. Two heal abilities at once can really shard out health for a few seconds.

If you want to just pump out nothing but heals then Mercy and Ana are your best bet.

its me, even tho i dps only, i am the greatest healer!

In terms of pure healing numbers it has to be Ana

Bap and Moira’s are AoE but that also inflates their statistics.

I guess it depends on situation. Ana with nade up does a crazy amount of hps, that’s the best bet for raw healing output, though it is only single target

First 4 legitimate responses all included Ana. So does mine so make it 5.

She can DPS really well too because of how easy it is to hit shots with her. Low skill - high reward.

Right now, its Juno for me. Her mobility and special abilities are truly second-to-none.

Illary’s pylon. Never heard that people cry: pylon heal! It always does

I would have thought its lifeweaver but I dont play him so Ill go with Moira since using her was the only time I ever healed more than 30k in a game.

Depends on if you mean burst healing per second, or steady healing over the course of a match.

Ana is only a really good healer IF you can hit your shots.

In terms of raw healing? Ana or Moira.

in terms of healing + utility (excluding damage)? Probably Ana or Baptiste.

If you don’t want to have any form of mechanical skill you’re not going to get high healing outputs. Hit your shots. It’s not particularly hard

Anyone other than Ana, secretly wish she was removed from the game.

i m sorry… since when is ana low skill…???

If Reaper is considered low skill, so is Ana. They follow the same rules, they employ similar tactics, and they have the similar punishments for failing.

Hitting body shots is not particularly hard in the same sense that tracking head hitboxes at point blank isn’t. Having limited mobility isn’t hard as long as you manage your cooldowns well and learn to use the map to its fullest extent. Knowing when to protect your team vs when to go on the attack simply takes a bit of practice.

Nothing about Ana is any more difficult to do than Reaper. It’s simply a matter of whether you want to consider it low-skill or high-skill.

supports have an inherent pressure of keeping their team up. This is tied to their role. Similar to how tanks have the inherent role of leading and protecting their team. Compared to this, DPS doesn’t really have an inherent pressure but to kill (which other roles can also do). So, unless your DPS requires high mechanical skills (like maybe genji or hanzo), DPS is relatively low skill than support (barring exceptions of course, like LW or mercy).

With that said, I do not agree that Reaper is low skill coz he is a flanker and flanking itself is an art that not everyone can learn or understand.
