This means: hiding so that the enemies choose different targets. This means: positioning so you won’t be picked as gg-ez-no-re-target by your enemies. Just don’t forget: You are also part of the team! If you don’t keep yourself alive, you can’t heal your fellow team members. I’ll put a trigger warning.Īs a healer your main goal is to keep your team alive. And most of what I’m going to say will apply to all platforms, console and pc.
#MERCY HEALING PERSECOND PC#
This thread is not supposed to be a “GET REKT CONSOLE HURRDURR PC MASTER RACE” thread, it’s about healing. I wrote this guide for myself, to understand my own plays better and to figure out how I can improve my own game.ĭisclaimer #2: I play Overwatch on the PS4. Every team composition changes which hero you play and how you play them.Īs support role you have to keep a lot of things in mind, each of which I will explain in detailĭisclaimer #1: I do not claim to be the best healer. Then why would you want to play as support? Because it’s fun and, if you learn all the classes, you get a variety of possibilities to play during matches! Every match brings you a different challenge. My point is: If you only thrive on positive feedback from your fellow Overwatchers and when your main drive is to get sweet POTGs, you might have to pick another role. You’ll get a few votes here, don’t worry. If you do well though, you’ll get a nice little card at the end of a match.

Getting a POTG doesn’t happen often, so don’t expect to shine there. As a support, you can make or break a game and a lot of that is influenced by how your teammates play as well.
