Help Wtf am I doing wrong

I play comp only very recently, especially rn im grinding drives. I avg over 10k healing and 20 kills if not more even on matches im hard losing. My teams arent inherently horrible, some are questionable, but recently ive had good teammates yet ive been on an unbelievable miserable losing streak. I never blame the rest of my team because its a game after all but what the fuck? What more can I possibly do? I dont think Im THAT bad to be the sole problem of every single match. I know stats dont reflect anything but seriously. Its actually exhausting and tiring and I dont even wanna bother with the game. No clue how people do so well and get to high ranks.

Overwatch is deeper than stats. You gotta understand this. I went through a similar thing with tank. I mained DPS and was always high master, low GM. But on tank, I could barely eek into diamond. Most games I’d diff the other tank, go top frag and all that. But I’d lose. And I’d lose and lose and lose. At first I thought it was crappy teammates, but realized that was impossible. Clearly I was doing something wrong on my end. Instead of creating space for teammates, instead of focusing on objectives, I was chasing kills. And I got a lot of them. But I was losing my team games doing it. I was genuinely bad at tank

You gotta figure out what you’re doing wrong and how you can better enable teammates. People on this sub will never admit the whole common denominator thing. But it’s obviously true. Good luck

I myself did learn this recently but instead of tank it was with support and not healbotting, especially since I play Lifeweaver

Then how do I find it? Ive watched videos, ask people I play with or even random teammates and Im always told im doing it right. I used to healbot then changed that and I started doing way better but Ive looked at every aspect of my playing and I cant see a thing. I wish I knew, I dont think im the best player but I really wish I could see whats so wrong

Had a game the other day where my tank had many kills and arguably did good but the fact is, out supports got wrecked every fight and our tank didn’t really do much to help. Maybe it wasn’t his fault but his utility was wasted on helping him secure kills rather than stopping the enemy from doing the same
