    He's desperately trying to pretend it's not the easiest role while showing himself playing Ana sitting a corner healing people while barely getting focused, Kirikos flanking him because they can freely do that thanks to suzu and teleport and he then constantly dies because he stupidly exposes himself.

      If you only heal as ana you normally wouldn't climb that much. And if I would flank as a kiriko I just know my team will be dead while I do that because they can't stay alive for one second without me

      This is how you know ranked is dead. I was high plat on support in ow1 and when ow2 came out the game boosted me all the way up to gm3. I had plenty of bad cards (when you needed 7 wins for a card) like between 7-7 and 7-10, and every single one of them ranked me up. Praying to the lord that season 9 fixes it but its very unlikely

    All roles have a high skill ceiling. Support is currently disproportionately impactful relative to skill. So, skilled supports can rank up a little faster, but they need the skill. Tanks, and even dps can feel at the mercy of their support players right now. That's a feeling that exists for various reasons but it's frequently voiced, and while support mains might not agree, it's tanks and dps that have that feeling and are unhappy with the state of the game. If you feel you can't create a win condition, but any mistake on your part creates a loss, playing is just stressful, not fun. The idea that supports give "free value" is dubious. Moira and Brig a little, but that's just the mechanical aspect, no support can carry without good game sense. The issue isn't free value, it's the disproportionate value a high skill can bring, mixed with the - justifiable - feeling that other roles have that even braindead use of support cooldowns shuts down everything they do. Personally, I'd say support may rank up a little faster, but if you want to improve your game sense faster, play dps - because the feedback there is so much clearer; and then you can transfer that sense back to support or tank later.

      Ok but support does have way more sustain than other roles. Kiriko might be mechanically hard to do dmg with. But you don't have to do dmg. That's the whole issue. You can healbot on supp and just win. How you ask? Because of their broken abilities. Kiriko can healbot because of how good kitsune & tp, cleanse are. Ana can healbot as long as she uses nade, sleep correctly.
      You don't need as good positioning, you don't need as good game sense. As long as you use your abilities right, you win. Tank & dps do not have the luxury to play this way

He says a lot without actually saying anything or answering any question he proposes. I know Sam pointed it out but Dafran was ahead of curve years ago as I saw it live on his stream when he made the list DPS are the most skilled players bar none in the game and support players being the worst. This guy legit proves it by being Plat for 900 years and all of a sudden climbing to GM.

    I agree. As a support with multiple accounts I went 5-0, 5-2 in gm games then proceeded to go 5-5 or 5-6 in diamond games. However when I play tank, I either win hard or just lose if the other tank is better. Tank is easy to climb when you're better but you can have a smurf gm support and not even know it cause they have little impact at times.

      The role might be hard but one ability can counter whole ults. A good nade can auto win the fight. Unless you're in t500 support is auto win if played properly.
      Tank or dps don't have an auto win. They don't have sustain. They don't live after making mistakes. They cannot afk healbot. They can't stay in 1 spot and be untouchable. (Even widow can't do that unless she's hard pocketed)

    Support is the backbone of every team. If the supports are dead, there is little to no sustain for the team to make plays with. Tanks are also important to the team but they are bound to support for sustain. DPS have the least amount of utility on average compared to the other roles and they mostly do damage, which can be done by the other roles as well.
    I found support to be a lot easier in Overwatch 2, especially with the addition of Kiriko. You get so much value for free, but you can make plays for your team as well. For example, Bap ulting and insta ooming a DPS or support, assassinating an Ana in the backline as Kiriko, or Nading a tank at the perfect to time to kill them and snowball the fight. Solo plays can be done also because of the increased self-peeling of supports and the addition of the self-healing passive.

      You really think tank might be the easiest role in the game?Absolutely not.
      The tank role relies way too much on the other roles to win the game, for example, if a support on the enemy team picks ana, you are completely reliant on one of your supports to pick kiriko, if an enemy dps picks pharah, you are completely reliant on one of your dps to pick a hitscan hero to deal with her.
      The support role relies way less on the other roles to get impact as they can heal, do damage, have movement abilities, have the best passive, have imortality abilities, have get out of jail free cards, and can negate the value of the other roles by pressing a button.

    I play primarily hanzo, but also some support (zen and kiriko) and I’d say support has been much easier to climb, my hanzo has to be on point to diff the other dps, since most good dps are trading roughly 2 final blows to deaths, however at least at my rank (console low diamond/high plat) most support go heavily negative, some 1/2 or worse. Essentially even with out much heals dps usually do okay, they fight for position try to make plays and usually kill as much as they die, however the supports I’m up against rarely ever make plays, the only time they really fight is when pushed and consequently aren’t that good at it. Basically as kiriko as long as I am fighting other supports they don’t really heal their teammates, and because they aren’t fighting that much it’s fairly easy to diff them, the end result is that while my hanzo would more often than not beat my kiri/zen, my support is usually the more impactful character, since I only lose a little killing power in exchange for healing and an easier head to head. Essentially I’m saying support players, especially the exclusively support players are very passive and easy to dual whereas the average dps is aggressive and proactive. Maybe that changes in higher ranks but I’m not there yet

    Also i agree with u on take that if u a very good player-best role to rank up is dps, until i remeber that raidboss(baptis) is support, kiriko is extremely good, and if u reach a certain skill freshold she becomes terrifying, illiari is a dps with mercy pocket.
    And chars that a noobstompers and ez to play -bastion,torb,ana will give u extra sr bc it so easy to play them to beat players until plat i guess, they will by defenition boost a person who doesn deserve a higher rank until he reaches people who can counter-play the bs devs made

    Support easily has the lowest floor and the ceiling is probably just after tank for lowest (now that we are in 5v5 unfortunately). DPS is just forgotten minus the one OP flavor of the season. Right now Sojourn. I play in masters and the number of support players you see with diamond tank but gold/plat DPS is disturbing. So many free win buttons on support, even when poor plays are made by the support player. Regarding 8:15 I fully disagree with that analysis. Since DPS is the least impactful you have to play well above your rank to not get 50/50 overwatch games. If you only play slightly above your rank, supports/tank can int the fight at any point to instantly lose. 90% of your impact fully relies on your team to enable it to happen in the 1st place or else get punished by an enemy support/tank cooldown.

    fair point about ana nade but at the same time, you wont get far just based in nade if you are bad at the character itself. Plus, nade isn't automatically a free win a majority of the time if not timed properly. You can keep on nading the hog the entire game but if he wasn't low any of those times, he will never die. Also, every character has some kind of "easy" ability, that's not really the problem imho.

      agreed. i was thinking of that, and the fact that your tank can just keep feeding ult charge or your dps can keep overextending. the best thing a support player can do there is overextend with them and hope not to get punished for it. because even if your in a good position and your team isnt you have to rotate according to their positioning which can put you in los of widow or dive or other heroes. so basically i believe it comes down to an an individuals understanding of the game (including the hero they are playing and their team and the enemies.) obviously tho some heroes are meta and undoubtedly it would be much easier to win with those heroes.

    I am one of the people that believes that support is the most impactful role aswell as being the most chill in the game. (I play junkrat in gm1 and recently i played a bit of brig in m1 with barely any experience. I also ended up gm2 with rein, but tank feels so bad to play...), and i'm going to answer to the takes of this video.
    So, support is the most impactful : you are the one that is able to enable your whole team to make plays, you can take/secure space (brig whipshot), you can get kills by yourself (ana shot sleep nade combo), you can make tank miserable, and the ults are very powerful. I've played 16 games on support, in almost all my games, i played well and won, and there are 3 i did not do that great on where i lost. I went 11-5. So, even if my team can make me lose or win the game, it's almost always my fault if we lost.
    Small note about ana nade : some tanks play around you wasting your nade, so yes, the play is to almost never use nade, forcing the enemy tank to give up space because of the fear of nade. The matchup is about who's going to missplay first, and nade takes some skill in that you need to recognise when nading someone is not worth it.
    You mention how metro "proves" that support is easier to rank up when you're bad, compared to ther roles... Sorry but no, because support players have so much to do that they do so many mistakes. That's why it can feel easy, the other supports often do these mistakes. You won't rank up if you only healbot and then blame your dps, because you're doing the mistake of not dealing damage, without realising it. It is a mistake i see many support players do, and the ones that balance healing and dpsing the best are often going to be the one that decides which player wins the game. (i'm excluding mercy and lifeweaver here) However if you do damage, you're now allowed to do other mistakes, which makes the role feel "chill" with how many mistakes you're allowed to do and still win, compared to dps and tank (especially tank), just look at the GetQuakedOn tweet.
    Your "boosted" point makes no sense... each role have some sort of impact... it's just that support has the most...
    dps is more impactful than support on sniper maps only, where healing does not matter as much and plays are so hard to make.
    Also, many mercy players are boosted, yes mercy is an exception, because some mercy only rely on teammates to win, and pocketing the best player just boosts them, because they are not very skilled. I've played with a few skilled mercy players, and oh my the skill difference is HUGE. Mercy pockets are a problem in itself and is an exception to the debate. It does not mean that support is not impactful.
    Lastly, i play dive rat. Killing a support is so impactful that it almost guarantees a teamfight win. And their cooldown are so strong that forcing stuff such as ana's both nade and sleep still has a 35% chance fight win (in a 4v5) for my team even if i died in the process.
    So, in conclusion to this comment, support is the most impactful role (it has the most impactful heroes) and is the "easiest"/most chill because you're allowed to do so many mistakes. Heal diff is something that wins or loses the game way more often than dps diff or tank diff (when i see that i have excellent supports, i know the game is already won). And finally, sometimes you have a shit dps, well on support you can dps instead. But if on dps you have a shit support, you're out of luck.

      The debate is dumb because statistics already proved support is the easiest class. Not math, but statistics. DPS players have a 4x crossover rate in GM compared to support. You know what that means? It means that a GM DPS player is 4 TIMES MORE LIKELY to become GM in other roles than a support. A support GM is 4x LESS LIKELY to have translatable skill capability, and will usually rank several ranks below GM when transitioning to DPS. This isnt math, as I repeat, this is hard fact.

  • @brunoandrea4846

    You say the role doesn't have that much impact but the impact of the role is its uptime and sustain. It's very hard to kill supps but if they do die you basically auto win. If you feel like the better dps&tank win. It's probably because you're healbotting. Completely relying on your team to do well and carry you.
    Just enabling your team shouldn't be enough to get high rank but sadly it is. With heroes like kiriko and lifeweaver 100% encouraging and boosting players.

      Kiriko not really because you gotta land them headshots to bet good value out of her offensively as the rest of her kit has no direct offensive utility (other than her ult but to get that more often, you have to do damage which means landing headshots anyway). Lifeweaver is just bad in OW2 because he was made to cater to OW1 style healbot playstyles.

  • @jadonsmine1877
    @jadonsmine1877 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I think the idea that "If supports are the most impactful, than all DPS players are boosted" is incorrect, and the question of which role is easiest/hardest is more complicated than just "X role is harder". I think maybe you should make a video where you really dive deep into what "value" is in Overwatch, and how complicated it is to actually define.
    Support is both the easiest to create value, and the hardest to maximize value.
    (disclaimer: I am in gold. These may be low rank takes.)
    Support is a role that has the unique ability to heal their team. Healbotting is a strategy that most would agree is fairly braindead and very easy, but it still can create a lot of value. Prime Lifeweaver was incredibly powerful with his healing output, especially in lower ranks. Almost no other role can create this much value with this little risk, making it the easiest role to get a baseline value.
    Will the supports who healbot win most of their games? Probably not. However, in a lot of players heads, if you have high healing as a support, you did good. Some games are genuine "support diffs" because the other supports used their cooldowns better and created more value, but it still seems like a tank and DPS diff because the supports who were diffed had a lot of healing.
    Support is also one of the hardest roles because, to truly maximize your value, you need to balance your cooldowns, heal your team, and do meaningful damage all at the same time, all while most likely being the most targeted person by the enemy team. If you do all these things correctly, you will be the most impactful role in the fight.
    However, no one is perfect, and since support is so hard to actually maximize in value, your support players will often not be the fight winners. DPS can carry and not be "boosted" by supports by simply outplaying the other team, and capitalizing on mistakes, and that is especially true in lower ranks where lots of mistakes are made. Also, while support is the most impactful, their impact is not so substantially high that their value cannot be surpassed by someone playing well in their respective role. However, theoretically, once you get into higher ranks, supports will stop making quite as many mistakes, and their true impact will start to show. You've made it into high ranks, so you should know way better than me, but I've heard these sentiments echoed by Samito, SVB, Flats, and plenty of other T500 streamers. I'm curious to hear your opinion.
    Also, regarding the Metro video where he showed a bunch of clips of him being bad at the end. I saw the whole video when it came out, and I feel that even if his point was to show that you can be bad at support and still reach a high rank (metro is a troll), the video showed plenty of evidence of him being really good, getting many kills and outplaying other supports, and that Kiri is a bit overtuned (PLEASE DON'T KILL ME MR. AMATERASU I KNOW YOU LIKE KIRI), so I personally feel that it shows how forgiving Overwatch as a game is, where your playing well overall and making big plays matter more than your small mistakes.

    I'm sorry but i find this complete bs, immos on supports are the easiest things in the game ever, throwing suzu, using bap immort, using lw pull, you can't counter these. any ability you can't counter shouldn't be in the game, the most gm ranked players are gm on support, followed by tank, followed by dps. having the ability to completely override every cooldown is very over powered. I'm master 3 tank, master 5 dps, gm 3 support. btw brig has a 55% winrate across all ranks, mauga even in his op broken state had a lower winrate at 53% compared to brig. i should not be in gm 3 for support if i'm master on the other 2 roles. brig should not have this much value. and half the supports i can get to gm on way easier than the other 2 roles. this was the most brainrot video i have ever watched. You can not be serious, if you are going to comment back or trash talk me please atleast counter my points and face them first. ESPECIALLY about brig. guys please don't think this guy is serious, this is clearly a troll video.
