10 HUGE MYTHS That HOLD YOU BACK From Grandmaster | Overwatch 2

[emacliftsalot]

8 years later and people still don't understand that the game is about who used their cooldoens better not who picked the right hero

About supports doing damage, if your tank and DPS are super agro, going crazy, taking and doing a bunch of damage, you’re gonna have to heal more and that’s okay. If your tank is shield bot rein and your DPS are playing slow, you may have to go bap, zen, Illari, etc. and click heads. Play at the pace of your team. There’s no one way that’s always right.

I really hope people get outta the healbot mentality on supp

I love this, this is why we need to teach players to problemsolve. To be able to beat concepts not characters, so no matter what character they run into, new and old, they they can see recognizable concepts and scenarios and at least have an idea of how to fight back.

Great points, its frustrating to deal with when coaching metal rank players. People seem to sometimes believe that overwatch is an equation, where who your hero pick can just be plugged in and you win. Its not that simple. Yes, high rank streamers might make it sound that way, but they are being hyperbolic, and experiencing much more efficient and effective gameplay.

Teammates definitely hold me back idc.

Overwatch competitive games are like going to the casino.

Getting flamed for healing when you play characters like Lucio funny af

Ive upgraded from a 121g steelseries rival 650 to a Logitech superlight with an artisan mouse pad and my aim instantly got better. It won't be this much of a difference for everyone but equipment can matter.

12:13 “I will never play that’s disgusting” top part of the video

[_Legendary__]

We can’t not blame teammates in a team based game. That’s literally contradictory.

[ericoftheotherworld]

Equipment does matter, it's just like an acoustic guitar. If it's crappy, you have bad strings, you'll have to fret down harder. Sure, you can still play well, but if you had something a bit better, you'd play much better, it should feel easy, and not fighting your equipment all the time.

oh, so it purposefully puts me with gold players as a bronze 4.. someone actually asked in the chat who the bronze is lmao

[readyplayermaddy]

I have good mechanics, good aim, decent positioning, decent game sense, ect and im stuck in gold. Help :D

[ianchambers]

According to many of the players i get stuck with in bronze to gold, the scoreboard matters the most lol. Like on their team they have 20k heals for each support they must be doing better when really the team is being demolished and their supports are being healbots to try and even keep them alive. Or someone has a negative kdr but they helped capture 2 points as a result.

Yes, the scoreboard has some use but as they are saying in the video, its not the be all, end all of the game and how its going all the time. Granted, I've had teams where they cried about healing when our supports(i usually main support) have double the other teams' healing, and they say we need to do more healing, lol. You just can't win no matter what you do. Other times they complain about supports doing dps when its helping the team and often necessary to make up for the lack of our dps doing enough or the tank doing very little. Support isnt just healing lol. Even if it was, you cant outheal mistakes like not using any cover, certain abilities etc.

i think it's a complete waste of effort to look at the stats on the board during a game. nobody below probably top 500 is able to parse and understand the stats in context during the game, and just use it to as a way to find a scapegoat. it's a misleading waste of effort. if people wanna analyze how the game went, they should watch a replay and be honest with themselves about what they did and how the fights played out.

[amandak]

It's hard to up the mechanical skill on controller (PS5) because all of these videos are geared towards mouse and key. It's understandable but man I feel like I'm never gonna get better unless I make a switch off controller

[punnydm]

Honestly, when it comes to scoreboard, I just hope someone isn't going negative. Even if you're going like 6/6, sure. Maybe it was a bad round. But going 4/10 while everyone else is positive? Come on, bro. (Mercy excluded ig. Though Mercy shouldn't be dying too much either.)

[PromethorYT]

Equipment MATTERS! I got a 360hz refresh rate monitor last week and it makes tracking n aiming so much easier that I improved 2 fold. Maybe I had a really poor screen before, but man, having a card that can run overwatch a 360 fps o that Alienware monitor is incredible. I've been receiving comments like, dude you so skilled etc for the first time, I'm an rts player, never played shooters and constantly hit top dps now. 😊

[LMach]

Every time I see the scoreboard, one team is a rockstar and the other a flop. I've noticed that Blizzard matches a lot of unbalanced teams, and I rarely see a truly good match.
