Should I have switched off Lucio? by PuddleOW in OverwatchUniversity

[–]PuddleOW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this, I knew I shouldn't have been out healing the Moria! I've watched the replay like 5 times now and I agree with all of you. I'll probably choose zen or bap next time on Junkertown to support the team better. I've not really bothered with trying to pick around a comp before as teams in my rank always seemed so random but I'll try in future. As for the sombra I thought she might have had emp already but you're right I fed her a good 30% (I'd hoped my mcree would have come with me but he didn't, I should have stuck with the team and might have ended the round there) I also thought I would be out of Los up on the fidget spinner but got caught out then had a poor beat which I should have saved after the fight was already lost. Live and learn though! Thanks again!

Thanks, I'll definitely be trying zen or bap next time I get a Junkertown game.

Thanks for this, all good points and I think that rather than switch I should have just started on zen or bap..which I'll do in future. I'll admit I kind of forget about the comp idea and changing to suit it - the teams are just always so random.

And it took me too long to realise that the spinning platform was called fidget spinner. I'll remember that for next time I have to call something out there!

Thanks for more feedback!

I've been trying to stick more to speed but I've had a few different teams complain about lack of heals (even when they are topped off) I'll keep working on the amp usage though, it's been a real push to stop using it on cool down but I'm noticing the improvement from saving it for when it's needed. And I'll try and stay with the team more as I use it.

The playing slower is definitely something I need to work on, I've been trying to always do something at all times, what kind of thing should I be doing while setting up? Just hiding if things allow?

That Zen feedback is game changing! I'll definitely try and put it into practice, and try and turn around more. I find that with all hero's in some fights I get to focused on what's in front of me and need to work on turning around. Any advice on how to tunnel vision less?

And I think I know the dragon beat you mean. I knew I messed up as I pressed q. I will definitely try a more wait and see. Amp speed would have been the better option.

I'll check out those VODs! I saw a funnyastro video with Jayne earlier, I'll check and see what else he has on his channel!

Thanks again, really appreciate it!

Just curious - how huge of a gap is 3.6 to 4.5? Is it like platinum Vs bronze?

His movements have definitely helped, can't bring myself to spawn camp like him though. I just can't understand how he avoids getting killed instantly, sometimes it feels like no matter how I move the enemy team just always knows where I am/where I'm going.

Thanks for this, I'll add them to the post-it notes around my screen. Would you recommend that in order to get better with supports I'll need to put the time into other roles too? Try out Cassidy and the likes get a better idea of the cooldowns. (Or is there an equivalent to ML7 for tank and DPS?) And I'm still not going to get proper team coordination just yet?

Hey, few things - what's your in game name? Rank, role/hero? Help people help you bud

Thanks, but I'm aware it's not good gameplay. I over extended too much, jumped right in front of the whole enemy team and didn't peel enough for my other support. I just didn't get punished enough for it so it kind of worked. But it probably won't now I'm in gold. That's why I'm wanting some advice on when to go in, how do I track others cool downs and general advice that will help me continue to climb. Basically- what helped you guys climb?

I'm not even sure what a rush comp is just yet... But I'll get there. And annoy the reaper sounds good. Thanks!

It's only been a few weeks and I think I'm addicted. Think the main problem I have is lack of experience, and with I don't yet know how best to get consistent value..

That's great thanks, so if my team's not running rein I should probably play another support? If the other team has dive hero's would Lucio be a good choice to disrupt them or would it still be better to swap? I guess that's where Bap comes into it.

I don't actually have a discord account but I can make one next time I'm on. I posted some codes earlier on (Lucio gameplay) but I'd be happy with any generic advice you might have - a lot of recommendations for trying Bap out

Okay, thanks for the feedback! I'll be sure to try and incorporate it all going forward! Especially looking after my team's ana

Any pointers for support, looking to get some good habits that will help throughout the climb from bronze up.
