I'm an overwatch returner. Played only in season 1 way back at launch and thought I'd give it a shot again.

Was support player back then so I thought I give it a shot again. Did my placements and landed up in gold 1 currently hovering in low plat, expected but it's fine I just playing to slowly get better again.

But now every support I pick gets called trash and I am asked to switch off of them ?

I pick mercy -> please switch to Baptiste I pick Juno -> pleas switch to Lucio I pick Moira -> ungodly swears towards me and telling to off myself I pick mizuki -> "dees gai succ bleasd blay reel support"

And while I do understand these games happen and not everyone is nice it just seems to happen a whole lot? Are there only four or so supports accepted as playable right now? Or is it just me. I deducted those being kiriko, Lucio, Baptiste and wuyang. But I kinda just don't enjoy playing those. Am I grieving my teams by kinda just picking who I like?

Edit: thanks for the advice from everyone. I'll try to not let it get to me as much anymore and just keep trying my best. (Apparently just not on lifeweaver)

A bit about me:

Hi, I’m Noro, I’m new to this subreddit.

I’m a consistent pc champ & t100 finish player fdps in role queue, primarily playing genji, pharah, echo, and tracer.

My peak on support is m1 on:

Lucio

Kiri

Ana

My peak on tank is gm3 on:

Doomfist

Ball

Hazard

Coaching information:

I’m looking to pick up a few clients to help improve at the game, I have thousands of hours in FPS games, I’ve peaked immortal 2 on valorant as well.

I’m primarily looking for DPS players to coach/VOD review, but I can also help with some support/tanks (doom, hazard, lucio, kiriko). I’d be much more useful coaching fdps players but all roles, pools, and platforms are welcome!

NO RANK IS TOO LOW!!!!

All of this is of course for free, the one thing I do ask though is that if you would like coaching, be coachable, don’t waste my time by being unprepared, come with atleast 3 vods , one game where you think you did good, one where you think you did bad, and one where you think you were average.

Thank you!

Just finished my placement games, went 6-4. I have zero previous rank experience and have almost exclusively played quick play. Is there a reason the game placed me so high lol?

It is miserable. The DPS are way too good. This is Support role on console. I truly feel like it is a mistake. Looking at my qp stats I only got a 53% winrate and with my most played hero Illari I got a 57%.
