I’m fine with adjusting that, I just think it’s so weird that there’s no reward/incentive for Lucio speeding around teammates or for tanks for mitigating damage. I’ve always thought damage blocked (that would have hit somebody) should also give ult charge, as well as if you ‘save’ a teammate from something that would be a killing blow had you not acted.
except the people who would complain about this are the ones who sit there and try to fight on low HP and get killed, then start barking at the Lucio for not healing, instead of realizing that the Lucio is trying to help them evac from danger.

I had so many toxic players realize the speed was helping and… Still hate me.

This is the most delusional take.
Yes trolls are playing effective gameplay strats.
probably, because when they see a Lucio with half the healing of the other support (but actually helped save many more lives) on the scoreboard they just throw the “GG Reddit Troll Lucio” card out to help them cope with the loss lol

i guess i will never play lucio then but i do legit sometimes to swtich to healing mode but i dotn play him super often either
Is that not embarrassing to be outperformed by a troll? I understand the Speed Boostio haters have no shame, but if they did, it would be quite the eye opening experience.
In which imaginary world are perma-speed boosting Lucios winning games?
I win most of my games speed boost only. It is so effective that I do not actually typically call it trolling anymore. It’s just a lifestyle choice.
‘I win’. It’s a team game. But then if you are winning all the time that’ll be Masters or higher and maybe they can work around it.
Nope. I still suck at the game.
You are correct though, you get better teammates when you troll because it deflates your MMR relative to your rank.
I will say that most of my losses were totally winnable, but someone starts throwing a temper tantrum and gives up.
I’ve suffered too many selfish throwers ruining perfectly good and well-balanced games today to entertain this nonsense.
I never advocate giving up but you are deluded if you think you aren’t throwing.
Perma-speed boosting Lucios are an easy win if you see one in the enemy team and a troll pick bringing you down on your own team.
If they started throwing after the game was already in progress, that’s different. I just speed boost only from the offset and the games are balanced around it.
I am ranked higher than on my main where I heal, believe it or not.
My teammates are the ones giving up. The enemies cannot do anything about me because I am so much better than they are. No offense intended. It just is what it is.

Reading comprehension is a thing that should be taught in schools, I guess.
Speed boost is what makes him good.
If you’re dying too much try better positioning
Lucio players using speed for self only or green with team? Green with team is the best kind of Lucio with massive benefits. If you are so bad that you can’t make use of speed you are the problem.
Some of us work for balance, i try for 40% speed/60% heal, but most people only notice what is going on when a lucio is on green and NEVER when they are on yellow… even froggers “how to lucio” video he says “I have an issue healing so i use the hold to fade option so it only fades to speed when holding shift”
Hold to fade also allows for when you getting stunned to go to heals so you can survive more often when going in to feed.
Frogger has done a lot of damage to this community, tons of frogger wannabes just feeding ruining games

This was patched out please try again.
100% agree, i play a flexible lucio game i will peel, i will boop and help the tank make room, i will dive the widow if our damage will not deal with her. Lucio has so much expression in play i find it revolting that people cant find a play style of their own and feel they need to mimic some trash streamer poorly instead of finding their own groove.
