The most ridiculous superstitions about your main?

And I just have to laugh at this every single time.

I’ve not had one flashbang fail on me for any reason.

Dva can 1v 6. That’s my favorite one. 2 years now and still haven’t seen a vid of her taking a team on by herself successfully

He does have low healing though, even though he constantly gets gold healing.
He gets gold healing from healing chip damage before a more useful healer can deal with that damage.
In the event that someone actually urgently needs healing, he needs to not have Amp on cooldown, and heals 140 damage over 3 seconds with Amp (only a third of that rate without Amp).
That’s absolutely atrocious compared to:

  • Brigitte’s near-instant 150 health with anything extra becoming armour, every 6 seconds, on top of Inspire which is better than Lucio aura as long as Brig is in combat
  • Mercy’s constant 50 health per second, with more range than Lucio, and ability to resurrect you as long as you don’t die in a bad place.
  • Moira’s somewhat less constant 80 health per second with more range than Lucio, on top of her healing orbs which quickly spread 300 healing over a group
  • Ana’s 94 healing per second at any range, plus an instant 100 healing in an area

Only Zenyatta has healing anywhere near as bad as Lucio’s.

I really don’t like having a Lucio as healer, you have to hug him for trickle healing while other healers are like “BAM YOU’RE ALIVE”

Doomfist has 3 stun abilites and can oneshot every 4 seconds it still gets me everytime.

Also most things regarding Doomfist being OP is just sweet juice in my ears, because it shows the players skill in just words described.

He didn’t pay attention to his footage enough. Perhaps he was confused by the transparency effect close to the screen. When he shows soldier running into across moira’s path, the beam only switches to solider when soldier crosses the actual beams path. It only switches back to roadhog when he leaves the beams lock-on zone. That means theirs a small area where you can enter that lock-on zone, and the beam will not connect, a soft-lock.

I’m sorry please forgive me.

You are forgiven MercyJesus.

“SyMmEtRa’S nEw PrImArY fIrE iS bEtTeR tHeN hEr OlD oNe BeCaUsE iT tAkEs MoRe SkIlLz!” This seems to be the most common case when it comes to sym.

I disagree with this thinking.

Factually , it’s correct, but I feel it comes from a place of "I press W and you keep me alive at all costs.

Meanwhile there are a ton of things that make healing obsolete… like headshots. Speed boost is a way of mitigating damage before it happens, you just don’t realise because you don’t have numbers that show you how much damage you didn’t take because of it.

I can’t tell the number of times that I’ve saved a zarya that got caught out by speed boosting them to cover before healing them.

My Main is D.Va so the biggest myth I hear about D.Va is she’s unkillable which isn’t true at all, in fact D.Va is a lot more fragile then players think. Yes she 600hp but with a King Kong size crit box in the center of her “massive” model unless you play D.Va perfectly you’ll get de-meched really quickly.

If you enjoyed her then, you should enjoy her now. I’ll give y’all three guesses

The biggest thing that butters my toast.

Just spam jump, you lazy ninnies.

Pharah requires no aim and is just spam and that she counters 75% of the roster.

“Bastion is an unskilled hero” or “Bastion is OP” - Person who thinks memes are accurate or never played the hero.

You try not dying for more than 20 seconds or doing anything at all with your piddly-wink damage due to spread. Try not to get hit by literally any projectile hero. Try using your ult effectively without getting your projectiles absorbed with the gazillion shields other heroes have. Try existing with defense matrix in the room or an Ana sleep dart lurking around the corner. Just Try

“Ana isn’t a main healer”
It sounds crazy but the amount of people that say this is actually concerning.

Support Main Gripes

Zen being a half-dps/half-healer… nope, he’s just an off healer in the same way as Lucio or Brig, they do less heals and instead support with utility, ie discord or speed-boost or peel (with whip shot and bash and stuff). If Zen is out-damaging your DPS more often than not they need to step their game up, unless it’s like a Tracer or Widow or whatever who is effective while doing relatively low damage.

There’s the same ridiculous idea about Brig where she’s “half tank” nah fam, she’s an off healer and her stuns are the utility, they’re powerful in the same way discord and speed boost are powerful. She gets played in Goats with 2 other supports not because she isn’t a proper healer but because she synergises best with tanks who she can play in the front line with, and in that situation it makes sense to play to the strength of the tanks - their survivability - and support them with extra healing while at the same time getting them into effective range with lucio. If you’re running two tanks, two dps and an Ana or Moira, say, you very seldom need a third healer if your off-healer is a Brigette.

That I’m doing damage too much and not healing enough with primary and secondary fire as Moira - when you’re playing her it’s about balancing heal orbs on cooldown with heal piss on the resource meter that has to be charged with primary fire, versus getting ult and finishing kills with the damage orbs. You can’t see my orb cooldown and piss resource, trust me when I say I understand when I need to be damaging to get my resource meter up and you’ll get an orb when it comes off cooldown or when I have more resource. It’s literally the big skill thing when it comes to playing Moira is managing resources and CDs.

“Widowmaker is an aim only based hero, and only plat+ should play her”.

  • You can have bronze aim and play bronze widow, this idea is really stupid.
  • Widowmaker isn’t strictly aimed based, consider this, you have two people using the same aimbot on different teams as widowmaker. Which team wins? The answer is the team with better positioning and able to make more space for their DPS as well as do their jobs better. Widowmaker is position based first and aim based 2nd. Teams that can’t provide good positions for widowmaker to be in are failing widowmaker hardcore.
  • It doesn’t take the aimbot example for this to be true, a Widowmaker with bad positioning will die far more, and get off far less shots. Meaning less game impact. They could have perfect aim and bad positioning and lose to someone that is average at both of those. Or do you really think melee range widow playing front line will work with perfect aim, or always firing into barriers?
  • Think of it like this, if your aim is 2x as bad as another widow, but you get 3x the opportunities to shoot, whose side wins? The answer is the one with more opportunities, and it’s fairly easy for the number of opportunities to be that different in a game being steamrolled.
