Despite its controversial launch, the game has amassed a large player base within a short period of time and is still loved by fans despite its flaws. Overwatch 2 offers its players three roles to play - , Support, and Tank – each with its own set of responsibilities in the match.

Support Heroes are a crucial part of any team. They assist their allies by healing them, boosting their damage, and providing other utilities such as speed boosts as and when needed in the match. While the role is already challenging, fans are now claiming that Overwatch 2 takes this difficulty factor a step further. Reddit user u/CardDons posted his concerns regarding the laborious task with healing, stating that it is now easier for him to find a match when he queues as a Support character, while implying that only a handful of people are picking the role in . He then adds that the game is faster in pace compared to the prequel and this has some players pushing further, while others are left behind.

A Twitter user @Why_The_Heo states that should now be removed from the title altogether and adds that healers are facing their worst experience with the new title. Redditor u/the5pacepope commented that healers were being specifically targeted throughout the match. While they provide support to their teammates, the team fails to protect them from their foes, implying that the game has forced players to be more selfish now. Other users had similar complaints. u/PintoBeanSalad states that being a healer now means just sticking to the objective while his entire team pushes forward and risks dying without support. Due to the game being more fast paced, the apparent trend is gamers moving away from the main objective of eliminations without a healer assisting them in their fights. Eventually, this leaves the healer alone while their teammates await respawn, by which point the enemies have control of the objective. u/Far_Bandicoot5935 points out that medics are probably at their worst right now. It not only gets them constantly targeted by their enemies, but they also have to bear the complaints of their allies for not providing them with supexplained further explains that it is not possible for them to teammates if they themselves are targeted by the enemy at all times.
