Grimdude posted:I'd agree that forcing pure healers into the game was dumb. I personally almost never play healer/support because a) they aren't as fun and b) you're kind of just along for whatever ride your team has in store. I don't think this is necessarily true. Imo a good healer can carry as much if not more in this game than a good dps.

I rarely play Healers because I don't have a good sense of how much impact my healing is having. That's why I prefer to either play a passive Healer like Lucio or one who is completely and totally dedicated to Healing and isn't capable of doing much else so I don't get distracted. Full-blown Healers own and I will absolutely die on this hill. Also Tower Ammo was the best and gave push-heavy, summon-heavy characters a genuine role instead of being lovely Assassins.

Kharazim is the only healer I really Like to play. I'd rather play a bruiser or assassin with good sustain.

It feels bad when you're about to get a kill or deal some decent damage and a healer just NOPE undos it Healers in pve are fun, healers in pvp games just drag poo poo out and let people play lazy

I don't think there is anything wrong with healers in PvP games as long as their presence doesn't completely mess up the flow of the game. Games like Battlefield and Dirty Bomb have medics but they mostly focus on out-of-combat healing and reviving people, which still feels very meaningful AND you get to shoot at people. Even TF2's medic heals much less than a typical healer in Overwatch, his utility is more about buffing other players with overheal and pushing through static defenses with übercharge.

I didn't mind playing Healer in OW or HotS, once in a while, same with tank. But I liked to rotate, and that was difficult to do when the vast majority of players REALLY don't want to play healer or tank. Literally killed my interest, tbh. Well that, and QM kinda being a dumpster fire for someone like me. Edit: I really liked playing Stukov in ARAMs.

Stukovs root owns too, a lot of folks don't seem to take it though. Big arm pushing a blaze waddling in charging his fire blast is also good.

I used to do similar shenanigans on my paladin. Just being invincible and making a friendly dps pretty much invincible too, completely unbeatable unless the enemy is coordinated (lol) or also healbotting Wow pvp is the best example I can think of for healers completely dominating the game and making the experience unfun for everyone else

And now in the modern era you have the same issue with tanks where it takes 4 people beating on them before they will start to go down.

There was a patch today. It changed some inconsequential poo poo and added "Mastery Rings":  If for some reason you're still playing this fuckass game, you can drop 5k gold at Level 15 and 10k gold at Level 25 to make your favorite heroes' feet fancy.

I like how it's barely noticeable compared the ungodly size of whatever level that taunt is. Anyone have some good Whitemane builds? I used to love playing her but I just can't get a grasp on her new kit.

Is there a thread for getting help with comp is the game dead dead, I started in plat this season and have dropped to silver 1, I feel like it;'s cause I only just started playing this game seriously for the first time and I like playing characters that I *like* from franchises I like?

Probably give an example of a bad draft that happened? Or what are the heroes that you like? Since some are just always going to be pretty good and other you gotta get a comp to support them.

Now see when it was on fire we all thought it was Deathwing and it was D.Va. So now we're gonna think its D.Va rework but actually it's Deathwing.
