All this to say that I was going back and forth between Silver 2 and Silver 1 for about a week. As soon as I hit Gold I stopped since I really just wanted the seasonal skin lmao

I have the least experience on DPS but it feels like they have the most swaying power with the picks they can get and relieving enemy pressure. Granted it depends on the rest of your team to capitalize, but IMO it's just pushing forward since there is either no pressure or the enemy can't be healed.

When playing as a healbot you can min-max on some TAS levels and still lose because your team isn't getting the correct picks or keeping pressure up. Made more difficult if your other healer is one of the hybrid strategists. Focusing more on damage or not having burst heals to keep up with enemy dmg

I’ve rarely touched DPS since they’re usually the first to go but they’re fun and seemingly have a lot of nuance on how to get picks with off angles. Gotta have map knowledge for health packs since you’re usually out of LoS from healers and have to be mechanically good to aim/do combo.

The only terrible games I’ve had is when you’re the only healer in an otherwise all DPS team, with teammates refusing to switch and passing blame. Solo tanking doesn’t suck as much if you’re healers are on point, but if the enemy team knows what they’re doing they can still break through.

There’s been a couple times on character select where there’s team infighting; really some teammate picking fights because they obvs know better. Those games can definitely have been won if the teams mental wasn’t hampered by the insecure troll and/or self appointed captain.

I’ve used other free alternatives but they’re missing key features that help smooth out the workflow and lack precision. I hate that a lot of industry standard things aren’t given QoL overhauls since the only concerns now are to extract all your monies. ex. Only subscription options no way to own…

Overall pretty fun and I see the appeal! I hope I find a new weapon soon since it feels as if I beating enemies with a twig. I don't mind them OHKing me, just need to dispatch them quicker. Other questions I have are a google search away but I'll bear through it a bit more before I 'spoil' myself :v

Made it out Lvl 1 nekked caveman with a club, roaming the scarlet swamp, found a suit many lives later.
Ran into another dragon and just did a 180 and attempted to walk my ass back to the start.
Made it to a ruined church past some giant crows and lost the runes to an invader(screw you Anastasia!)

Sometimes you're in a certain mood and gotta spend too much time digging through that haystack. Makes me wish for grouped subscription tabs or a better way to curate your feed without making more accounts
