    Based on the author, the bi pride flag pie chart, and the community logo, I thought this was post was about gay dating and, while a little baffling, I cordially invite you all to share my misinterpretation and think about telling your partner “I can’t heal you through walls”

    Also: I can’t help you if you stand in an avoidable hazard that destroys your healthbar in less time than my gcd takes to cycle.

    In BF6 my most shouted comment was “WHY DID YOU GIVE UP I WAS RIGHT ABOVE YOU” whenever I played medic.

    I quickly understood why people don’t like playing medic.

    The brighter purple option on the bottom gives me a flashback from one day when someone was yelling at me in Overwatch that I was not healing them, and then I died, and my death cam ended too early, so it swapped to the only living teammate. It was the person who yelled at me, emoting in the part of the map where literally nobody was. I haven’t seen that person at all for the whole match, I have no idea what they were even doing there because it took extra effort to go where they went.

      I stopped playing OW in the content draught before OW2 released. But my experience back then:

      As a tank
      Over voice comm: Ok, we go left, to the choke. Cassidy, if you feel confident, try to take an angle from the high ground, Ana should reach you up there, but you’re alone. Get a pick, while we distract them!
      Spawn door opens Everyone runs away in different directions.

      As a support
      Tank doesn’t look for the team, constantly pushes W and nobody has ever heard of the concept of taking cover. Everyone is all over the place and health bars are melting.

      As a DPS
      Tank doesn’t communicate, bee lines to the choke, puts shield there and somehow their keyboard breaks, so they stand still shielding the choke, waiting for their shield to break and health bar to melt.

        Sounds familiar. Sometimes when I play tank, I want to engage, so I turn around, confirm that my entire team is with me, and then I die alone on the point because in this second they decided that what we need is 4 flanks, lol. When it happens, I usually don’t even know how they left so fast. Also people who think that cover means blanket apparently, because they stand out in the open waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too far from any corner and then flame you for not shielding/healing them because it’s 100% your fault that this Cassidy engaged 1vs 5 in the middle of the room. Safe positioning? Hell no, support diff, tank diff, second dps diff, your mother diff, everything diff besides the player who does this because what could go wrong 😆 I also had situations when the tank was seeing that I play a squishy slow support/dps and when they saw that somebody decided to dive us, that person just dismantled the shield and left me there to be melted. I once was flamed by an Orisa who somehow matched all of these descriptions, so I watched the replay from their perspective and that person was not even moving the camera around, just going ahead in a straight line and kept getting flanked by players outside their field of view, but it was our fault for not healing them… amazing…

      Doc, I understand you need to charge uber, but did you really have to run through half the map just to ubersaw a spy?
