Just why? Guys we all now can press a Tab and see whats wrong. When somebody ask you to swap, or heal more why do you start discusion?
People generally donât enjoy being told what to do.
Iâm personally receptive to criticisms when told to swap but sometimes even I donât feel like swapping will help. And saying âheal moreâ is basically telling someone to âdo betterâ which isnât exactly helpful advice.

But hey, We all have TAB. We all can see what is the problem. Also heal more - when you see a Kiriko or Mercy fighting and leting whole team die? Like its allways a team based game! WTF If I m doing bad with my hero, wtf is wrong to swaping? Toxic is stuborn sitting on hero that doesnt work.

âswap to that hero u dont play!â im sure it will work out fine
also the stats dont tell u everything and the player might just want to try and figure out how to best play around or overcome that bad matchup. at the end of the day u aint going to be there for his climb and if he sacrifices his mastery for one game then the next then the next he aint gon improve at all
that being said, no use in starting a discussion over it, nor its worth spaming change or heal more if he aint going to change or cant heal cause enemy pressure/positioning or just bad(it happens, he aint gon get better in one match unless u give actionable tips like take the highground, wait for ult etc)cause at that point its u asking for an argument

Seeing there is a problem is one thing.
Knowing how to fix it is another.
Because there are multiple sides to a story.
Iâve been screamed at by people for not healing when I was actively healing them. Both me & the other support were healing them. But they lack situational awareness to realize that.
Or else theyâre running into the enemy team & getting mad when we donât follow them.
See, hereâs the issue - youâre putting the blame on one person. Itâs a team game, isnât it? So why not blame the team?
Toxic is blaming one person.

Depends on what game mode, in comp I usually counterswap and what not.
In QP and arcade, i donât care what people play there, I usually use it to test out heroes.
The only time i call someone out, is if i see a widow getting clapped constantly and is way below others. But thatâs because i have raging hatred for her.
you arenât the boss of anyone so you canât make anyone switch, regardless of how you feel. you could always suggest to swap, but you shouldnt be mean or rude about it and begin to flame teammates because youâre not having the time you thought you would be having

Because there are just so many layers, variables and contexts to the fights in this game, that when someone tells you to swap, rather than them taking responsibility and swapping their own hero⌠itâs tough not to reflexively think âdo they really know what theyâre talking about⌠are they actually correctly reading the situation here, or just shifting blame to someone other than themselves?â
And Iâm not saying your team mates are never wrong, but at the same time, because of all the variables, itâs tough to tell when theyâre right, you know? For example, what if they ask you to swap, and you do, and then you (and hence, the rest of the team) perform worse? Is it because that person made a bad call when telling you to swap? Is it because you swapped to someone youâre worse with? Regardless, the end result is everyone suffersâŚ
Or the opposite side of the coin, you swap⌠and start playing better⌠but now the hero you swapped to doesnât synergize so well with the rest of your team, and theyâre no longer able to play like they were, all because you listened to a seemingly well meaning team mate who told you to swap?
I could go on and on lol

Dude stop with these imaginations. As i mentiond, we all have TAB in game and this real time! Im surely wannt ask to somebody who is 10+KD in game above me for example! But when you see a Genji with negative KD, quarter of my dmg⌠and I ask him to swap - WHY TF IS HE STARTING EVEN ARGUING??? And also what are you saying is probably a GM+ problem⌠when you swap from dive hero to poke and problems are even bigger⌠everything below that lvl, is a different story.
Oh shoot my b, didnât realize I was dealing with someone who is incapable of being wrong, youâre right, carry on

my answer to âheal moreâ is usually âwell, get this sombra off me, then ill heal you moreâ

team heavy game where oneâs performance fully depends on the others doing their job correctly in a competitive environment where players are only rewarded for winning the match. What could possibly go wrong?
I hate weekend forum posting. I donât know which is worse, people doing babbies first trolling or people feeding them.

because that person wants to play genji? freedom of choice
Imagine hearing âdps, kill somethingâ every few seconds. Itâs gets old really quick.

This.
Some players like to boss others around when they are barely even helping in-game. It can be very annoying amd usually triggers a heated conversation.

Itâs all situational, maybe youâll get it when youâre not âNewâ
I just put them on mute. No point in arguing or debating them. Most people who tell you to swap, are just scapegoating, and donât understand they probably are the weakest link.
