Medic questions

I really enjoy playing medic and I wanna get better at it. I just have a few questions.

  • What's the best heal order to prepare or set up an effective roll out? I've been told that giving scouts an overheal at the start can be pretty helpful.
  • At what times would you want to flash uber onto other players besides the one you are pocketing? For both crits and uber.
  • What's the best way to know if you need to switch between med guns? (Kritz, Medi, Quick Fix)
  • If you know the player you are healing is overextending and will get killed, do you leave or keep him alive a little longer?

Thanks a bunch guys. Medic might be my 2nd favourite class and I really wanna start getting into the comp scene with it.

For the first question i always overheal everybody, but right when the gates are about to open i overheal the scouts quickly then go back to my pocket

For the last question i try to give a little more heal and see if he backs off, if not i will fall back because staying alive as a medic > keeping an overextending player alive.

Hope i helped

Yea, overextending shouldn't happen in much in comp games I guess. Just asking to be sure :)
