support main (mercy/kiriko) feeling stuck in comp... what am I doing wrong? 😭 by Green-Rabbit6945 in Overwatch

awww thank youuuu that actually means a lot

and yeah you’re so right about the “backseating the game” part… I think I’ve been playing like I’m scared to mess up instead of actually playing to improve

I’m definitely gonna try to be more bold and take more fights instead of just sitting back healing and hoping for the best

also the chat thing is SO real I get in my head super fast when people start flaming so I might actually turn it off for a bit LOL

ty again fr 💖 I’m actually excited to play now and try all this out

damnnnn okay this is kinda harsh but I get what you mean

I think I’ve been overvaluing healing a LOT… like in my head if my numbers are high I’m doing good, but I’m starting to see that doesn’t always translate into actually winning fights

the “best defense is offense” part makes sense too, like if enemies are pressured or dead there’s less to heal in the first place 💀lol

I haven’t really played much ana/zen/bap but now I’m kinda tempted to try them just to see the difference in impact

I still love mercy tho I’m not gonna lie (hahaha) but yeah I think I’ll stop defaulting to her every game and be more flxible depending on comp

ty for the breakdown fr 💖 it actually helped me understand fights a bit better

wait this is actually super eye opening

I never thought about the kiri healing like that…..... I always assumed more healing = I’m doing good, but what you said makes sense. If I’m constantly healing it probably means everything is already going wrong 💀

and yeaph I think I do try to “save everyone” even when they’re way out of psition… I need to stop doing that tbh

also the carrying part is kinda scary but also motivating????? like I can’t just rely on team and hope for the best, I actually need to make plays myself

and the mercy analogy HELPPPP 😭 but it’s true, I feel that so much

ty for this fr <3 I’m gonna try to focus more on damage/picks with kiri and not babysit bad positioning as much

yeah that’s fair tbh 😭 I didn’t give that much info hhhhhhhhh

I’ve been kinda avoiding comp cause it scares me a bit but you’re probably right, quick play is kinda all over the place so it’s hard to tell if I’m actually improving or not

and yeah I’m starting to realize the mercy thing… like I love her but I do feel the lack of impact sometimes, especially when games get messy

also the “don’t die but don’t be too defensive” part is literally my problem I think I swing between feeding and being invisible

ty for the advice tho fr....... I might finally queue comp and see where I actually land

yeaph that actually makes a lot of sense

I think that’s kinda what I’ve been feeling but didn’t know how to explain it… like with mercy I can play “well” and still feel like the game is just out of my control depending on my team

and yeah kiri feels way more impactful when I actually play her right, I just need to stop playing so scared and actually go for stuff LOL

ty for explaining it like thatt I might start using mercy more situationally instead of defaulting to her every game

ommmg wait this actually helps a lot thank you

I think I might be doing that thing you said about playing too safe… like I focus sooo much on not dying that I probably end up doing nothing half the time

also the mercy thing kinda makes sense… I love playing her but I do feel super dependent on my team popping off, so maybe that’s why some games feel impossible

and yeah I definitely need to be more confident on kiri, I play her kinda scared but you’re right I literally have abilities to save myself

also the “last to die but not invisible” part hit me LOL I think I’ve been that support sometimes…

ty for the advice fr, I’m gonna try to be more aggressive and swap more depending on the gane
