there is 100000% brain dead heroes in the game but I learned not to get insulted when someone says that about who I’m playing because that screenshot perfectly illustrates what I want more people to understand

“brain dead” heroes can absolutely be played strategically and it makes them MONSTERS

AND ALSO YES C&D IS AN EASY KIT

but it took me over a year to become that “nightmare” c&d who can sometimes carry

auto-aim allows me to think less about aiming and more about when and how to use cloak, which enemy to distract, etc.

also it is called a STRATEGIST class not healer for a reason

the way I’m half asleep and was like OMG I HAVE THIS I MUST TELL THEM HOW AMAZING IT IS

seriously I’ve been gaming literally all day while we’re off and not once did they give me that sore feeling around my ears that I feel so easily from any headset

as the two of you heal together the distance between becomes nonexistent

your identity not tied to anyone or anything, separate and protected

I know you will rise from the ashes of your spent candle like a phoenix

and I hope you don’t forget how the darkness, so misunderstood, was a safe haven

see who had to hide for so many reasons because of that thing people call “life” and it wasn’t your fault

you don’t really hate yourself, not even the real you who sat in the darkness alone

why? because you came, it didn’t matter how long it took

I hope the both of you find comfort in each other

YOU ARE CAPABLE OF WAY MORE THAN YOU THINK YOU ARE

we underestimate ourselves and overestimate everything else and that combined is motivation kryptonite

you got this even if you think and feel otherwise and remember ANY progress is good (i.e. 50% is waaaay bigger than 0% even if it isn’t “done”)

and people were immediately jumping on chat and saying such wholesome things and there was so much “I love the chat rn omg” and jokes like “not all at once ladies”

I eventually added “remember you are worthy and matter” and someone that hadn’t been talking said “you too, wise and kind stranger <3”

DAMN
