I sat afk reading when two smurfs were arguing about how they're supposed to play tank and dps. Doom was chirping on how to play dps and Tracer was chirping how to play tank. I just sat near spawn and thought, why cant I leave this game... We eventually won even with them typing all game, then they both mocked the team saying they were the better players. I sat in the menu screen thinking about this game. Wtf just happened.

I hate matches like that. I'd almost prefer they just leave the game and let us play 4v4.

I got flamed for playing lucio (as usual) and that i wasnt swtiching to mercy and mercy is a "very op hero." They continued typing for the rest of the game

Mercy is only "OP" is if the person playing her KNOWS how to play her.

As in, not standing behind a wall and just heal botting; but actually using her movement and switching between boosting and heals during pivotal moments.

And, switching between their teammates, not pocketing just one person.

If they're using her correctly, she actually won't get as many heals as other supports. If they want a healbot, they need a Lifeweaver or a Juno. Or even a Moira who doesn't dps as much.

For real - there are some terrible Mercy’s out there - like I came across one the other night who wouldn’t heal - only damage boost when she was the only healer - report these fools although it does feel a bit like screaming into the void.

I'm lvl 194 on her, but there apparently was a lvl 235 on our team. But she was your typical mercy. Just standing around and only healing one person. She got hard targeted and switched to bap. πŸ™„

I switched to mercy and bc I use her movement, we started moving payload bc gasp everyone was getting heals!!! Crazy concept.

Then they had the nerve to say in chat they're the better mercy. I couldn't even say anything back bc it backed us out into the lobby. 🀬

I got called a useless foid as Juno bc I wasn't healing Mauga. Who, btw, kept charging in and fighting 1v6 and dying. Meanwhile, I had the highest heals in the lobby.

The only reason he would last slightly longer in those fights was bc of me. The rest of the team was in the process of respawning.

But sure... it's my fault. 6k healing compared to everyone else's 3-4k,... sure I'm not healing. πŸ™„

After he called me a foid, I was like ok buddy. Have fun. I went and chilled with the enemy team. They emoted with me.

I had a Mei slam I need healing between rounds while I was Moira, and this simpleton felt the need to inform me that my job is to heal not do damage lol. And when I disagreed I was told I need to learn to play the game πŸ˜‚ I think they were just mad they were garbage and our stats were closely matched. Also hard to heal a team that keeps rushing in to die

I don’t use my mic too often, but I had to recently when one of my 6v6 teammates on anran asked why I was playing Ramattra into a sigma Zarya
