What to do as tank when you have low heals? (Brig/Lucio)
So, I've been on a bit of a losing streak in plat. I've been keeping my cool, trying to get teammates to group up, watching my positioning, always thinking about what I could have done better - that kinda thing!
However, I've noticed that in a lot of these losses, I've been paired with supports who pick low/trickle/AoE healers like Brig/Lucio/Mizuki together. Usually I'll ask if one of them can switch to another higher HPS support, but I'll get ignored.
That's fine! I'll just play around it. More safe, hug corners, right?
Buuut, I learned that only goes so far. When I get chunked, it's like slapping band-aids onto an open wound. I can't hold the frontline and I'm oftentimes forced to give up tons of space under pressure. It usually leads into a steamroll from the other team with their tank being pocket healed.
Long-winded explanation aside, what should I be looking to do in this scenario? DPS aren't getting picks, trickle-healers who seem to be absentminded, and a pocketed enemy tank plowing through the ranks? I usually play Orisa/Rein/Mauga.
The only thing I can think is switch to a dive tank and pray that I can distract their backline and not instantly get blown up.
