Widowmaker’s ult is 100% a support ult. Since it gives vision for your teammates.
The same way like sonic arrow of Hanzo is supportive ability, and Hack of Sombra is also a supportive ability.
Mei’s Wall is a Tank ability, same with her cryo.
There are many overlaps between roles here and I think it is a good thing. Since you can get some feel of the other role while playing something different (I like to play Mei, since she is close to an offtank…)
But I disagree that Kitsune Rush is damage ult. It is a definition of a support ult (Enchanter to be specific in type of support). It does zero damage on its own, and only amps people in it. The fact that Kiri can use it herself does not mean it is not supportive ult. It would be like saying Valkyrie is damage ult since it buffs glock (faster projectile velocity and infinite ammo) and give Mercy omnidirectional flight for 15 seconds. It is not, since it is not the main reason to pop that ability.
Hmmm… Nope. Pretty much talking about the majority of forum posters in here to be honest, you included.
Basically i know i want healing because the way they’ve designed the game is all about the holy trinity of tank damage and support aka healing.
Let me flip your argument back at ya.
Basically, you think you don’t want healing, because your baseline “we don’t need healing” way of thinking HAS to be the only way of thinking. Forgetting that Symm was a fluke in support. She was never able to fulfill that role as first intended, because of her lack of healing abilities, with her turrets being too weak and her teleport not being good enough, which is why they reworked her into offense. Forgetting the reason as to why they reworked the categories and merged defense with offense and added the holy trinity.
I could make a whole thread on why whiners who constantly cry out for nerfs should be auto banned for just mentioning x hero followed by ‘needs to be nerfed’ or somesuch, but i won’t, because i’d end up with trolls like you in my thread whining about how bad healing is and whatnot. But if i do make one, jump in there with all the other whiners.
No i very much remember said categories and i also remember when they changed it (2018).
Support don’t have to heal, but it kind of does help win a game. It’s people like you who can’t fathom why they designed it, using the holy trinity who’re the problem.
If you don’t want to heal, then do damage, but don’t expect anyone to peel flankers off of you or to actually win any games.
By removing healing, you’re actually making the game come that much closer to being just another run & gun CoD clone with cartoon graphics thus making OW more ‘stale’ and more ‘samey’.
Do you typically spend your time quoting people and judging them from one single line, or do you just have extremely poor eyesight?
Either way…
You cut out 99% of my post to nitpick and moan about one single line, which is making any argument you make look bad and for the most part moot.
You don’t want healing but you don’t want the game to become stale. Guess what. Healing is a part of the game and have been for a very long time. They changed the categories back in 2018. Don’t like it? Go play Call of Battlefield or Fortnite casino royale.
