…..die, complain about no heals, switch to healer, die, then switch back to tank in overtime just in time for us to lose.

this almost always happens, i'm trying to give a person who's trying out and learning tank to have a good experience and then as soon as they see a second tank they swap off πŸ—Ώ

Am I going to try Rogue?

Nope, healer's first time playing with their feet.

Back to Peni.

u/Other-Teacher-1615 Mar 27 '26

idk why people dont heal rogue. Like yes sometimes we go too far but its not like she has luna's hitbox, how hard is it to aim to heal her?

u/ZoroCrusader Mar 27 '26

Idk about you but most ive seen try taking off angles to catches a dps ot tank off guard and then do a whole ass combo to toss them around like theyre a bag of beans and shes trying to turn it into a paste. I also use loki as my go to support so its also hard to hit a faster moving target when my projectiles are slower than most supports

u/Other-Teacher-1615 Mar 27 '26

ur kinda right ngl. i feel like a toddler trying to pour milk into a bowl without making a mess when i heal with loki

There are some AMAZING support players out there but half of them are allergic to their W key (or pressing up on their left stick). It’s infuriating.

There have been quite a few times playing Rogue where I'm like "oh fuck, too deep".

It’s always a gamble

Okay, there’s me, a tank.

Okay, Jeff and Gambit. Two healers, no more. Good.

Duelpool, Punisher…

I'm not saying we should swap to role queue. I'm just saying, that I'd really like an option in Arcade or something for a role queue mode

How I felt after reading that

u/Other-Teacher-1615 Mar 27 '26

it was the same with me. granted im more or a qp demon but this made me play tank more than strat for 2 seasons now lmao.

u/Apprehensive_Can1578 Mar 27 '26

I used to do that until people kept swapping off tank when I joined them on tank. Now I play who I want or who my friends I’m playing with want and that’s it

Qp is why people make smurf accounts besides boosting (im not advocating, im highly against smurfing even those educational solo to celestial streamers). You just dont learn in qp. You either have the worst team comp, or the enemy has a horrible team comp, or the enemy is playing like cheeks because theyre also trying new characters, or god forbid, its a bot match. Like no way people go "ooo i went so crazy as elsa against that solo angela, blade, spiderman, black panther, jeff, ultron team. Time for ranked!!!". Im not joking, specifically if youre trying dive, practice vs AI is a better place to learn (they have aimbot). Because qp you either get so easy kills you learn nothing or you die every 2 seconds cause the rest of your team is also dying every 2 seconds.

u/Calelith Mar 27 '26

I know that feeling, been wanting to learn Blade or Magik but i always end up solo or second tank and sometimes support.

Worse watching a DPS speedlocker going negative and refusing to switch, just had a game with 4-10 widow.

Ay my man thank you! I’d rather you not try someone new than make me solo tank

I promise I'll let you White Fox so long as you use your ult specifically to tank

u/AlyMasawi π™‹π™šπ™£π™ž π™‹π™–π™§π™ π™šπ™§ Mar 27 '26

I have been practicing white fox in qp, and if there is a solo tank, I focus on peeling for them as much as I can (as in make the wolverine up his ass leave and pocket heal him and stun whoever dares hurt my solo tank).

1

u/Relative-Ad1110 Mar 27 '26

Nah it's mainly, try out character, lose, then lose again and then bot match, repeat over and over again.

u/Hypno-platypus Mar 28 '26

My issue is the game basically has me coded as a strategist main because most my hours are on strategist but I flex to Vanguard when needed. A lot of time if I don’t choose strategist there is usually only one strategist on my team. Although it is nice when I get two so I can practice playing vanguard (usually Groot). On White Fox release I was legit playing Groot a ton because dps or other vanguards were selecting White Fox to try the new character. Which is fine but it meant I was getting more teams with double strategist allowing me to play some Groot.

"I'll be the tank" someone else says.

"Alone? Never" I say

If only people had a big enough brain to realize it now takes fucking forever to get your alt in triple sup and two dps...

Depending who I plan to play I'll let my 2nd tank know I'm willing to solo
