It’s called “panic”. What supposed to be tactical withdrawal, can easily turn into panicked retreat.
Yes, run away from my healing towards the enemy, while low health, spamming for heals, not understanding Kiriko’s healing has travel distance. I will never understand why they run AWAY from their supports, instead of TO them.
It’s not one game, it’s literally half my losses are straight up DPS getting rekt, or tank rushing into Narnia with no back up. Usually both are mouthy about “lack of healing”
Whatever you say Professor X. I’m glad you can read minds, and chat logs of EVERY single game played in Overwatch to make that grand assumption.
Gaslight #6.
Is it forum main? Because it seems you’re a forum main.
Idk how many threads I made to get OW1 Doomfist nerfed, or how many posts I made relishing over his mains crying after his nerf. But no.
When did I say run towards the enemy? Stop changing my words to suit your argument.
Sounds like you’re no better than the DPS mains crying supp diff every game then. If you’re losing a considerable amount of games then you have to stop and look at yourself every now and then.
Is that all you’re gonna say? Not gonna actually provide any proof of what you claim is being said by DPS mains? Of course you’re not because you’re being dramatic to look less insane.
You’ve made like 3-4 threads crying about this very topic, or how you have to DPS Moira because your dps suck.
I know you find it hard to believe I am a support main, but the only reason it’s shocking to you is because I am not in denial about my skill level. I don’t blame my DPS or tank every game I lose, I don’t think I am playing perfect every game, and I don’t generalise every DPS player in order to make myself look like some victim.
I’m a main support and I’m gonna say that if your dps are dead, who is gonna help you anyway?
You need to find the balance between heal and dmg, you need to know the actual danger to everyone in your team so you heal the guy who is going to die and put in queue the guy who is not going to die in the next 3 seconds.
What actually pisses me off is people calling for heals after being one shot, like, I cant heal dead man, I dont even play mercy.
You will find many players who just dont know where to stand in the fight or won’t wait in a safe spot until getting healed, that’s why there is a ladder, and these guys are at the bottom.
Someone has to be very very very useless for me to not keep them alive. If that’s the case you are in a 4v5 situation and there is little you can do unless you pop off with your nades, kiriko headshots, etc. But, what happens if your healer partner is at the same “level” as the other guy? that kind of guy who doesn’t heal his support partner for example, then… you are 3v5. GG go next.
Learn to identify every situation and you will win more than lose, but don’t expect every game to be with perfect teammates. And if someone is asking for heals and doesnt need them you are the person who decides that. Now, if you lose the game, check those plays, would that heal have let your dps have ult for the last fight? (just an example)
Game is very complex compared to other “rivals”.
Just take it easy.

ah ok so its a guessing game who you main then, i have no clue…give me a hint
The 2 heroes I’ve complained the most about are Genji and Doomfist (OW1 DF)
Don’t ask for impossible. Even players themselves often don’t know actual danger, until it hits them in the face. Which is why they would ask for heals, even if first hit was also lethal one.
Game is very chaotic, and target priorities often are decided by something as simple, as “got spotted by two enemies at the same time”. Especially when it comes to one-hit kills, as you have no way of predicting, who’s skull has target mark painted on it.
Context to the situation, it’s not changing words to give you an example of why supports are dying off and tired of trying to do what we can, only for people to completely negate the try factor, by doing dumb nonsense like running away from their supports TOWARDS the enemy team’s spawn, hiding around a corner, spamming away. If I don’t teleport to them and they die, you guessed it “DPS supp”
I know when it’s my fault, I know when I am getting rekt and that’s my fault. You’re missing the POINT of what I am saying and yourself are twisting the narrative to fit YOUR wants… All while claiming that’s what I am doing. 
Someone needs a nap it seems, go calm down and come back when you can actually attempt to have a conversation and not resort to gaslight fail trolls.
And yet, they all get traction, end up on front page, high to extremely high like ratios, and have a lot of conversation on the topic. You might wanna’ try and step back because all you’re doing is getting yourself heated and looking completely silly and sad for it, and for that, I apologize.
Gaslight #7, really on a roll here, too bad you’re not really hitting anything but self-gratification you spoke up on a topic you knew nothing about. Don’t break your spine tapping yourself on the back now.
No, you make forum posts on threads you don’t matter in, embarrass yourself, then go on gas light tirades and weird takes that fall short of the mark you were hoping for.
I hope you feel better soon, because wow. You got mad over a stranger disagreeing with you on a game forum… Yikes.
ah ok i had moira main in the back of my head, i just didnt want to call it early…

The situation you described only mentioned DPS hiding from their supports. And like I said, sometimes hiding instead of running back means you won’t die.
Sure I sometimes see DPS mains doing this, but rarely do I see them blaming support when they do something as absurd as running towards the enemy spawn.
But you don’t, because you literally just admitted, and said in your OP that you are essentially never to blame. That you make mistakes but it’s always a dps/tank diff.
Like what? You literally blamed half your losses on your DPS.
Looks like someone is all talk. If you can’t back it up don’t make such an overdramatic claim about DPS players.
Throwing random words like ‘troll’ and ‘gaslighting’ out there does absolutely nothing but make you look desperate.
What does that have to do with being a “forum main” like you claimed I am?
It’s funny the amount of times you use the word gaslight and never use it properly, but are completely unaware of when you’re doing it yourself.
No where in my post am I “getting heated”. And for looking silly… well I would look silly if everytime I couldn’t respond to a point I just yelled the word ‘gaslight’ so I don’t have to bother respondong to it. That’s 7 points you haven’t been able to answer.
So when I show you my playtime on all heroes and prove you wrong, you’re going to what? Apologise? Nah ofc you aren’t you’ll just cry GASLIGHT!
Ngl it takes a lot of courage to straight up call me a liar when you have no idea what heroes I play.
Aww looks like someone is getting “heated” as they say.
I’m a Zen main. Lol.

Run and hide while being chased, instead of coming back to your team where we can heal you and protect you and engage a team fight.
Once again, honk honk.
Ah the thing you’re known for… “but my experience is this so it’s right!” Cope harder, it’s very very common knowledge that bad DPS and tank mains always blame supports for their lack of skill and awareness.
I am the OP. Trying to twist words does not help you.
We’re not playing Uno, the reverse card meme does not work in actual real world situations, might wanna’ learn that one.
Oooh #8. Someone’s salty.
“WHEN I PROVE YOU WRONG WHAT THEN?!” I could care less, you’re a forum warrior and a bad one at that.
Says enough that you don’t understand how supporting works, when you pick the best DPS support in game, and probably only get value from panic transing when someone ults.
Awwww, thanks, imitation is the highest form of flattery. At least you’re learning how to be a starter troll. <3
that sounds about right, if you aren’t playing with friends.
Yes, you are? That’s what your role is?
Now don’t get me wrong, its annoying when people ping for help constantly, when most of us are doing the best we can. But we absolutely should be doing our best to keep our team full, not just waiting til they’re almost dead to heal or use defensive abilities.

Everything can be learnt. Of course is impossible to see every possible outcome, but I truly believe as a support you have to know what is happening to your teammates. There will be people you can’t reach due to walls for example, then you dont help that guy (unless you are kiriko and want to go to spawn with your friend who was 1v3)
Just play the game, but using your fabolous human brain like a chess match. Game by game you will find yourself recognizing situations you already lived, so you’ll know the answer to the question “what do I prioritize”.
Support life is tough mostly because of this, but once you recognize situations, you will know to hide when soujurn is glowing, tell teammates to not peak in that moment, you will know when gengu will blade, so you can position yourself where he will have trouble getting to you. You will know what dps is having more trouble and mostly, you will know when NOT to heal your tank and do dmg or help teammates.
You are aware that you can still die even while being healed? Yes get your DPS to run to you in front of a Widow and get headshot, or hooked by a Hog.
Isn’t that what this entire thread and every other thread you’ve made is based on? Do you read what you type before you post it?
I know you’re the OP??? You said you make mistakes, but then go on to blame most of your losses on everyone else BUT you, and claim that it is almost never a support diff but rather a dps diff. You say one thing and then completely contradict yourself.
Nice deflection once again.
9 times you have avoided responding due to an inability to give me a decent answer.
You claim I am speaking on a topic I know nothing about? You told me I am not a support main and the second I threaten you with evidence (I know you don’t like that word) you start crapping yourself. Lmao. “I could care less” is another way of softening the blow of humiliation.
Ahaha you can’t be serious.
If anyone knows what it’s like to deal with flankers, it is Zen mains. Having absolutely 0 defense or mobility to deal with them. But no, you play Moira obviously and think your job is hard. I’m still in shock you actually typed this and thought you were making a point.
so then what are you doing, standing there? it’s your job to heal, reguardless of spam. hopefully your criticisms are AFTER you are healing them. if they keep taking endless dmg and using no wall cover and use you as a crutch, then yeah, at that point i would cut them off personally. i could be getting more effective heals elsewhere, in your shoes.
Careful, OP thinks this is gaslighting.
it’s not gaslighting, you have to do your role, before you complain about other ppl. if it was “i healed but theyre still spamming” then you have more of a ground to stand on.
