I Tried Overwatch 2 Support As A Beginner

Is Support the most difficult role in Overwatch 2 or is it Overpowered?
Educational Unranked to GM Kiriko but with a big twist. I hope you enjoy this one, me and my editor spent a ton of time in this and it's very cool I think. :)

"Supports are OP 😡😡🤬 so to prove that I'm gonna smurf in Plat/Dia with a ex-OWL duo to show the entire support role is broken and needs to be nerfed and its totally not just 3 somewhat overtuned heroes" like be for f'n real do this again with no Bap, Kiri or Ana and play on a virtual machine using Linux so the game doesn't recognize it's a top500 on a smurf account using the same computer. Their smurf detecting software obviously helped you rank up faster. Also no other role would get this treatment for a couple op heroes, in S1 and S2 the entire tank roster wasn't called OP because a couple different tanks dominated the meta those seasons those particular heroes were called out instead of just making inflammatory blanket statements of "so and so role is op"

@@MetroOW I play tank 🗿 I'm just self aware enough to know there's only two arguably three actually overtuned supports while the rest are just okay-good and depend more on support/team synergy than anything. DPS mains have always been the worst players, mechanical skill is the only thing carrying you clowns, top500 dps players have the game sense and positioning of high diamond/low masters support/tank players, this is true for you Mr. I'm gonna flank 2nd point Gibraltar on 3rd point defense, this is true for samito, jay3, etc. If dps players just learned to git gud overwatch would be in a much better place but instead we've had to deal with 7 years of their whining to nerf tanks and supports because they can't play overwatch like call of duty and run n gun the whole game.

if you can hit your dinks kiriko immediately has the potential to become one of the most oppressive characters in a lobby and it's bonkers to me that people want to act like that's not true. i think most kiri mains don't see how overpowered she is because they can't aim and end up spending their cooldowns on free escapes instead of also countering every other ult and ability in the game.

[@MetroOW]

A lot of it is basic positioning and knowing what general gameplay u can get away with, the first day I was doing very poorly!

[@fuy1648]

ur probably also not playing 50 games every day. edit: assuming you CAN potentially reach gm, its just a matter of playing enough games, and that's the main problem with the ranking system. If you're good enough you'll reach gm, but you'll probably have to play hundreds of hours of diamond games first, especially if you aren't on an alt and you actually started at a low rank and gradually improved over time. But nobody wants to spend hundreds of hours losing in a lower rank than they belong in. Sorry for rant I just hate this game

[@olivethesilly]

its not just youtubers. once you learn the basics of positioning and mechanics, youre able to pick up anything in the game pretty fast. i havent finished metro’s video but he has pretty good mechanics and knowledge so he should be able to pick it up and be gm in no time. focus on the role you enjoy the most, focus in improving within your role, and then flex/move to other roles when you feel comfortable with what you should be doing in a match

[@purplerainPR]

there is just so much value in kiris kit thats so easy to play with, its no wonder shes obviously the strongest hero in the game. When you dive supports on doom, youre not guaranteed any value and there is a ton of risk. when you engage on kiri, you have tp, 2 shot capability, suzu which cleanses and turns fights around, its really silly to think that 1 single character has all of this. also ana, extremely oppressive when nobody on your team can pressure her. when she uses her cds offensively she can absolutely bully the enemy tank, even if she uses her cds defensively she still improves her survivability and combined with her hunch over hitbox its hard to hit her (same applies to kiri) yeah lets not even pretend the skillset needed to play supports is anywhere near as difficult as playing most tanks and dps heroes in the game

[@kambido890]

We have to tank, heal, save, DPS, be aware of everything... you really think that isn't harder than tank or DPS? Your roles are delusional. DPS and tanks just want to be the carry and they're bitter that their role isn't the carry role. But... i think the role that has the most to do should be the carry role, and should be the OP role. What is the alternative? Just be a heal bot so everyone else can pretend their role is the strongest?

[@purplerainPR]

@@kambido890 You completely disregarded everything I said and gaslit your own "just healbot and let the tank carry" argument which I never even mentioned once. Like Ive said, using your cds on tank or dps doesnt mean you get value, or very high value to begin with. But with ana you just anti the tank all game, kiri you assassinate and suzu someone whos abt to die, baps overwhelming healing and lamp is self explanatory, zen shoots tank from far away to get easy value, etc. also support "awareness" is extremely overrated since players dont react like a 2006 HP computer, nor do they have to dps the entire game to win. So yeah its kinda cope to say support isnt the easiest role to rank up in cuz as a doom main, I would happily love to see a kiri or mercy main try to play tank. I challenge you to learn 1 tank in the game and let me know how it goes, thanks

[@Gryff782]

@@kambido890 if you 1v1 a dps on support you should not be favored....except you are by a 75 25 margin

[@kambido890]

@@purplerainPR Firstly, i play all the roles. All the roles are hard to rank up in their own way. Tank and DPS... sure, can be the hardest, why? Bc supports in lower ranks suck. Being a good support player means you don't let your team die... which is a combination of damage and healing. To do everything to keep the enemy team from killing your teammates. That is a hard role in its depth. DPS and Tank need good support to rank up so i would agree it's harder bc you're putting your faith in a random persons skill if you solo q. But, if you have a friend that is a support player, better if you have two... Tank and DPS become so much more fun, and i would say Tank becomes the easiest to rank up, then DPS bc DPS you need to have good mechanics too or at least better than tank. And, ya, support is easiest to rank up bc you can carry, but around plat or diamond, support starts getting easier... under that it's frustrating. You can't out heal the damage in this game even with a full pocket. If you have a tank that never uses cover... you just lose. If i'm thinking of all this as a solo player, tanks probably the hardest, then dps, then support. The game is just different when you have other good players but at least with support, when you solo q, you can carry. In the end of the day, it's good one role has the easiest rank up/carry potential for solo players.

@@Gryff782 Depends which DPS you're talking about doesn't it. 1v1 almost anyone can win against pharah. But if you're a good tracer player, you can delete every support with relative ease.

Metro, a T500 DPS player, sweating his ass off, keyboard slamming, veins bulging in Master 1 lobbies: -Breaks GM5- "Yeah that was so easy..."

[@QuickS4nd]

He only got so far because of his aim (being a DPS main) and his VERY aggressive playstyle, letting the other support do most of the work with sustaining others.

[@AllThingsCubey]

@@QuickS4nd This. Kiriko absolutely can climb if you just out-DPS the enemy through skill diff. Metro in a Master 1 lobby could have done this with Zen tho... or frankly most supports, because his mechanics are so much above that rank. Most of this video was just him clowning on Diamonds for crying out loud, and he didn't even climb that quickly, because he wasn't doing his job on support properly. This was not the damning evidence of supports being broken I think Metro was hoping for, it's just a T500 player achieving GM5, with help of another T500 player duo, on a hero they have the mechanics for, but don't really know wtf they're doing with. I respect him including all his screwups and deaths though. Every time a Diamond player clowned on him, and he kept it in the video, he got a respect point.

[@QuickS4nd]

@@AllThingsCubey True, I agree with everything you said, he could have played almost any other support hero and the result would have been the same (Maybe not with Lucio or Mercy since they don't require the specific aim mechanics he has)! And I almost forgot he was min-maxing with a duo too... hah! Good catch. But yeah, I am not exactly sure what he was trying to demonstrate in the first place, how he is able to just bruteforce his way up to GM5, or the power of Kiriko as a hero? Because I don't think he was doing the best job at either of them, the best thing I got from the video was a laugh or two. The thing is, if Metro wouldn't exaggerate everything he does to the point of being obnoxious, he'd be a more likeable person.

[@hampter64]

[@Zylefer]

Even as a support player, I think support damage should be capped (I'll elaborate). For Brig, she doesn't really do a lot of damage unless she invests several cooldowns, and Zen has to charge his attack for burst damage or invest discord. Even characters like Lucio and Lifeweaver have projectiles that are most lethally effective when upfront. Unfortunately, I feel that Kiriko breaks those rules AND gets the free-est escape. It's also pretty easy to get double dinked from a distance because kunais are quiet with minimal bullet tracer VFX.
