Important advice: Don’t sign up for a role you don’t want to do. You don’t earn extra cookies because you chose support. Intentionally not healing is gameplay sabotage and you will be reported for such.

No, just have four other people to heal, and especially if you’re a dps off doing your own thing away from the group that wasn’t really agreed upon by said group you drop rather low in the priority.

You know I’ve met some incredibly nice people with weird/crass names so I usually try not to judge on that but with the name like balls four you too on a post like this I’m having a hard time imagining that you’re a pleasant player when things don’t go exactly how you want it to go from a PUG group on a online video game.

Indeed, there is a reason you respect your doctor and judge. Respect those that have the power to drastically determine your life. Its not rocket science.

Except that’s not how it works, supports have a disadvantage when fighting against DPS as DPS are designed in order to kill, where as supports are not. SOME supports are good at fighting back, some in certain situations, but overall supports are almost exlusively at a disadvantage in a 1v1 situation with anyone else but another support.

The only acceptable person I accept X spam from is Genji. (Long story…)

And, honestly, I’ve learned to filter it out.

Healing does not go through:

Walls

Barriers (unless it’s Moira primary, Brig?, Zen?, Lucio or Mercy)

LoS (unless Lucio (?) maybe Brig’s passive)

If you decide to jump into a fight on 20hp trying to do a 1v5, without the team, I’m sorry but that’s your problem.

I have seen supports killing dps too and team on enemy tanks

absolutly not true , every support has mobility abilities or high damage burst up close , there is literally no reason you lost a 1v1 to a flanker unless its a skill issue , im not saying youre going to win every 1v1 or that its fun to play against flankers , all im saying that if your dps are busy trying to kill the raid boss tank , you can protect yourself if you have enough mechanical skill

Yes because that’s possible, but 40-60 can look fair if you only pay attention to the 40.

you cannot win a 1v1 every time you get jumped

there’s a certain % of jumps they get you

you can be the best support and kill 99% of the reapers that jump you BUT

THE ONE TIME YOU GET TAKEN DOWN YOUR TEAM WILL BE LIKE

If said flanker or DPS is of equal skill to the support, the support will statistically be at a disadvantage, don’t kid yourself into thinking its a fair fight.

listen , when i turn on the game i click flex and play any role with the shortest q , its usually support , im not like gm or anything and im not trying to be toxic , but when i play say ana or kiriko and there is a tracer flanking me , i only blame my self if i loose a 1v1 , kiriko literally has to land 1 headshot and melee to kill a tracer , as ana i literally can deal a 135 damage burst with a well placed shot and a nade , if i hit another shot , and use movement to dodge bullets im fine .
i assure that supports are not in a disadvantage when 1v1ing <=250 hp heroes , tanks are a different story

That’s fine, except thats still comparitively weaker than what the DPS has in order to fight you.

ignore the haters , its ok to not win every 1v1 , we’re all humans , but that feeling of satisfaction when i quick scope a genji three times while strafing and knowing that he just smashed his keyboard out of rage is priceless

Lol, we have another one here.

oh thats for sure , but i welcome the challenge hahaha , and thats why support is infinitly more fun than dps , atleast imo

  • the part where i might be healing somone that is actively being shot at while you’re in the backi wont drop healing that person cuz youre safe for now and they are being shot at.
  • the part where you might be inside the enime team and i wont be welling to go with you in there
  • the part where i might have someone attacking me and im dealing with them and cant focuse on you
  • or the part where you might be spamming i need heling and there is a nice mega just few steps away from you ( happens alot)
