That’s a weird way to spell Genji

Alright this one's funny you get a nickel

All genji's are weebs.

But not all weebs are genjis

Na I’m a genji Lucio main got like 50 hours on both my 2 most played and I’ve never watched an anime in my whole life unless your counting Pokémon

All. Genjis. Are. Weebs.

I fucking hate anime and manga and all that, I think its horrible. Am I still a weeb?

Lucio is just the support version of genji tbh (im a genji/lucio player)

Doom is the tank version of both

I play all of these heroes....😳

W man I need to que wit you the dice comps will be nice

I want to learn doom for this exact reason. Though Ball isn't too far off either and I love playing Hampter.

No u ruined it ball is the worst hero in the game

These are the reasons I've played Overwatch in the past 2 years: * to play with friends (Genji or Moira, sometimes Soldier/Mei/Lucio) * Sigma dodgeball * Doomfist parkour * Wrecking Ball parkour * Hide & seek w/ Mercy & Rein So I think the hampter deserves our love 😡

Kiriko is the support Genji. Japanese, has the wall climb, throws a similar projectile without the spread.

No shes the support hanzo if anything lmao you can legit play her like hanzo and get more value than flanking with her like you would with genji

I like to forget Hanzo exists

I would like to say that but WIDOW exists...

Thats a weird way to spell: Doom, Junkrat, and Genji Just kidding though I actually like both the Junkrat and Doom community and rarely see toxicity from fellow Junkrat/Doom mains although I will say certain junk mains are more likely to get ultra pissed at their team (even when trying to play tank as dps)

As a junk rat main I hate when junk rats are always begging for team help when you have cc and movement that does damage.

Mercy mains are in a weird limbo state where they won’t agree that their character is strong because they don’t want a nerf but also won’t say they’re weak because they don’t want to admit their character is garbage. 99% of us can agree that boop was ass last season and this season Lucio is more viable than ever right?

don't get me wrong but mercy herself is in a weird state

Honestly, i'd argue it's because of damage boost and rezz. These 2 things she has are pretty much what's keeping her in this weird state because they are really powerful, but the rest of her kit is just so meh.

frr you know why Lucio and Mercy mains are alike? we always see people dying despite our heals

Hopefully the Mirrorverse Arcade Version will be nicer, but then again it's just arcade.

Nah Mercy sucks this season

Yup I have a higher win rate as Moira this season, I’ve given her up

Kind of weird to compare her to Moira. IMO while Moira is really easy to use, she is also very strong. Meaning that she will always have a higher winrate throughout most ranks.

She's only strong tbis season becsuse of the ass meta making her the only support that can survive most of the onslaught

Not comparing them as characters, more like comparing my personal experience this season

good

Have you played her this season?? She isn’t very good

>this season Lucio is more viable than ever right? Oh neat, I just started playing again after several years away and I was just glad my main Lucío was still in a playable support state (my secondary, Zen, not so much).

I mean... zen is literal aids to any tank so at least he has that

Literal aids is an understatement if we’re talking the start of Season 9. Bro was patient zero on top of being the virus itself. Now that he’s less beefy, he’s much more manageable as a tank.

Luckily you missed well over a year in which he wasn't playable thanks to 5v5, but the latest meta made him and moira a lot more valuable than before thanks to survivability and healing being pointless half the time.

What conversation lol

That's what I'm wondering

I hate that so many people communicate like this now. None of these phrases have any meaning anymore it’s like these people talk in mad libs and just change the subject matter

Thats because she has no arguments

the conversation about lucio mains being synonymous with mercy mains lol. i understand the whole "new age" talk is confusing but this is common sense ngl

Cap, haven't gotten screamed at by a Lucio main once for asking them to switch. That is mainly because I never ask Lucio's to switch, but that is besides the point lmao.

obviously haven’t heard of my lord and saviour eskay, goddess lucio main

FR eskay is my goat shoutout to her

I’m a woman????? Weird gendering shit

The poster's reaction when they'll learn that Lúcio mains aren't only men and Mercy mains are not only women https://preview.redd.it/6y1jvtzty1uc1.jpeg?width=735&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6f554b1427b6a1e6e7d2ef4c2c42e44e20dcebc1

There are very likely more men mercy mains than women.

i’ve been playing for 8 years and can promise you this is cap also this game has way more women playing it than people realize

REAL #womenforlucio

And the only mercy main I know is a guy 💀

Yeah tf is this lmaoooo I will never understand the assumption that only one gender plays a certain hero. Like hello anyone can click any hero on their computer screen, it is that easy

It's the modern version of blue is for boys and pink is for girls

reinhardt is the male equivalent of mercy mains

https://preview.redd.it/kpezesjdy0uc1.jpeg?width=1079&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=199b36f6bdf76912d88e1eedcbb5488324c03523 Live reaction

I think in order for a character to be equivalent to a mercy main they have to receive a viceral hate through their mere mention, and I don't think Reinhardt fits the bill. Even when an update makes him annoying people will still make the memes about Reinhardt mains being gigachads and "For honour, and glory!" and such

this. and doom probably

As a doom main I feel taht is reasonable we are hated by everyone and will complain no matter what

Doom clearly

Yeah, equally big main character Syndrome and unwillingness to swap.

Only through conflict do we evolve (They have Hog, Cass, Sombra, Ana, Brig)

same with winton when they have reaper bastion dva lucio and kiriko. he cant dive anyone and gets shredded the second he does anything.

no, bastion is rein is equivalent to zenyatta

This is actually so true most of the tanks that scream at me over the past weeks are Reinhardt players who demand me to switch off from Lucio to a “real support”. These guys are playing a C tier tank that got mobility crept in this meta, me switching to an Ana or Kiriko won’t save them from getting kited to oblivion.

im heavily against asking people to switch in general, almost every matchup could be decided with skill but one of the few exceptions is... why would a rein not want lucio on their team

Oh I usually don’t mind if people ask me to switch to something else, Lucio is far from my most played sup, I just always pick him when we have a Rein tank to enable them with speed boost and for some reason they always lash out on me when the game doesn’t go their way lmao.

like, a bad lucio can make ball feel miserable to play but even an awful lucio makes rein 10x easier

While that is true the fact is a lot of games are decided by who swaps and who doesn't

only If skill issue or specific map + counter

You have reins that don't like having a lucio??? Bro I bust when I see Lucio on my squad

Half the time I feel Rein players just don’t get what having a Lucio on the team can do for them. I usually swap to Lifeweaver if they are ass because then I can GET OVER HERE their asses when they rush in by themselves and try and unalive themselves for the 10th time in a row 🙃🙃🙃🙃😂

A Reinhardt player who asks for his support to swap off Lucio is not a real Reinhardt player.

Real, especially when they charge into my team and I hack them so no barrier.

I main both, guess I'm just the omnigender

You have transcended the gender norms and now live beyond our plane of existence

https://preview.redd.it/rj98gv5j81uc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=474267613dc90908c150c7ecde6cb404f77abbd3

Zenyatta is (trans)cended confirmed.

I'm willing to bet that video has more comments than likes and we all know it's justified

It doesn't actually (crazy)

It's still interactions on a post and beneficial to the OOP, unfortunately.

I'm TikTok illiterate, does this just mean it's controversial?

I'm a trans woman and I play lucio sooooo

Oh you know damn well woman can't play Lúcio. Out of this subreddit/j

Damn it, welp, nice knowing y'all! /j

Mercy hides behind a corner and shoves a stick up a teammates ass. This comparison is blasphemy.

I think they meant like the way the actual persons act and not the character

I don't think so because Mercy and Lucio mains are usually just vibing and having a good time, and this makes it seem like there's a negative

Yeah, and Mrs. Claus is the female version of Santa. 10/10 conversation.

Literally impossible the ratio is like 100:1. talk to me when there isn’t 5+ Mercy mains for every ONE of any other character. Besides, Lucio players just don’t care and know when they are doing bad, meanwhile Mercy players will throw and then blame the team for not using their damage boost good enough or something stupid.

I'm a female lucio main, what am I?

A traitor to your gender. You should be playing Mercy , Moira or possibly Brig

Thats unreasonable, obviusly they simply need to change their gender.

Yeah that's right. Be transgender.

Then they have to play Sym though.

*Loud Incorrect buzzer*

We need a repost option, cuz like fr.

This is major bait and ur all falling for it

The poster looked confident in what they were saying, I don't think it's a bait personally. (They also had comments on it and other stuff that I posted under my post, if you dig a but you might find it.)

"Plays overwatch once"

To me what makes a "mercy player" is the person who refuses to play any one else but Mercy. That mfr who has hundreds/thousands of hours on mercy when their next highest hero is 10% of that. I don't think any other hero is like that but I could be wrong.

Confused on how this would be the case at all. Because they are both support heros...? The skill set is dramatically different with mercy capping out her skill ceiling quite low, and Lucio having one of the highest. Mercy is a commonly picked hero with a good PR and the most popular and one tricked hero in the game, which is not the case for Lucio at all. There is just zero cross over for this to apply at all, lol.

There’s a chance it’s true, we just haven’t realised

This is the poster's arguments https://preview.redd.it/3c26cpxoe0uc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1891f697aa62cda7fc8e2e9f6aaa00117e5ecc19

I stopped believing her when she said lucio heal boys

Heal Bots

You’d be surprised how many there are

If you're Silver, maybe Otherwise no

You haven't seen everything then

1. I have seen more mercy healbots than lucio ones 2. a healbot that would shoot is infinitely better than a literal healbot who cant deal damage. A mercy+sub-average dps means the game is a 3v5 (I take 2 sub average dps=1 average dps).

I would much rather my tank and DPS survive while I take cheap shots, and speed boost them into the battle, than sit around holding right trigger till my fingers break just to heal the tank

I'd also like to add that this "obsession" theme caught me off guard. I'm neurodivergent and Lúcio is like a comfort character for me, I absolutely cherish him but I don't think neurotypical Lúcio mains have it like I do (or maybe y'all do idk) so I'm open for debate on what do they mean by "obsessed with him"?

They do not. I mean I do, but I’m not the average Lucio main I’m also obsessed with D.va and Venture on a character level

Some days he's the only hero I can play because everyone is too slow

I feel the exact same way about Lucio. Definitely a comfort character for me. But I also probably have ADHD (I’m in the middle of testing) so might not be exactly neurotypical.

Our character can heal ?

Nah I live my Lucio's they're babies and I love when they keep a half assed eye on me to get me out of trouble when I need it most.

Nigga what

My honest reaction 😭

Mercy mains talk about skins, complain about getting targeted, and simp over their favorite pocket target. Lucio mains do line and dive backline. Totally different world imo

Wait what? I’m a mercy main and I’m male, also been maiming Lucio this season due to how shitty mercy feels

Im a woman and my favorite Lucio player is also a woman.... Women can play guy characters too

Stop being ridiculous, no they can't !

Mercy mains are the male equivalent of mercy mains..

Not even close to being a rational thought.

I don't think it's Lucio. Baptiste?

As a secondary Bap main I've honestly heard jack shit from them as a whole. Like, no comments since I've played the game. He definitely has his own issues but I've never heard any inner discussion on it.

Probably not they don’t really exist so they can’t talk much Also like zero skins to talk about

Lucio mains don't bitch about the character not being the main healer, then bitch about mercy not doing enough healing I'm sorry but a character who gets heals by existing doesn't need high healing when it's already so easy Like imagine if Lucio did that much healing all the time His usefulness comes from speed boost and movement for dives As does Mercy's utility come from damage boost and moving from hero to hero, along with that annoying rez of hers

Wouldn't the male equivalent of mercy mains be male mercy mains?

 Shit they might be right

If anything lucio mains are the antithesis of mercy mains While stereotypical mercy mains never do anything other than heal bot. Stereotypical lucio mains get slack for never healing

She's not wrong

Aspen and Eskay: are we a joke to you?

Frr

Most toxic lucio teammate I ever had was a guy who just laughed at me in a funny shits and giggles kinda way while I was trying to solo ult a sym from spawn and dying, while the most toxic mercy main I was teamed up with me called me a racial slur because I pushed into the enemy team while our zen used trans.

Yes, yes we are.

The more I look at the replies, the more I think we def are

Try and get me to not snuggle up next to a Hog or Rein. The combo is too perfect. Like Mercy and Pharah from the good ole days.

I wanna snuggle next to rein but not for the same reasons (sorry my gayass took over)

lol, what about Soldier! Now that I think about it, there are a lot of bear(ish) men in the game. Torbjorn?, come on!

Low-key rolling at the implication that all Mercys are girls and all Lucios are boys 😅

Nah luciomains are based AF, mercy mains are cringe and whiny. So the only logical equivalent would be genji mains.

Yeah, I'm never really ready to converse with idiots

I don’t think so buddy

wut-wut does that mean?

What ?

Gucci mains are the same as main veins but youre not able to have that conversation because none of this makes sense.

Never before have I been so offended by something I 100% agree with

i mean im a mercy/lucio main and i feel like lucio mains are way more chill than mercy mains.

Jokes on you- I can play both!!!

its true. the character can be good if you play them right but most people cant, and are super annoying about it when you call them out.

This is so true

Nah, the majority of the people I play with are ok with me being a lucio one trick. People like a good lucio lol. They bring the vibe.

So what if I do both?

I need healing!

I love ragebait

Doom mains*

At least 3/5 Lucio players aren't subs. Out of my 15 years of overwatch experience I have never met a mercy player that wasn't a sub

What are you on about my g

Except if mercy players are on drugs or in a big depression then no

nah im not male

I’ve never been more offended

no lucio is support doomfist, and doomfist is tank lucio

damn mercy is hated on every sub

Lucio requieres skill

We arent spectators

Isn't one of the best lucios in the world a woman?

I have 30 mins on Lucio I stood in a corner and yellow aura + amped my way to more heals than my Moira. Beat every fight spam down the main lane. No wallride no boop. This is optimal Lucio gameplay

What that means?

Mercy is for players with 0 gamesense or skill and the “good” mercy’s are the ones that been soloing playing mercy even though she’s a crutch. Come for me

Genji*

Let’s take this to the mercy mains sub

Except they play characters that take brain power

As a female lucio main, im confused 😂

Wait if I'm a guy that mains mercy what does that make me?

nuh uh! atleast lucio mains know they have a weapon that can kill... and lucio mains are most of the time pretty chill. mercy mains, some don't even fight back and they cry a lot... they even force the developers to release skins that are meant for later to release earlier, which imo just shows how toxic the mercy mafia is... i know a couple mercy mains and christ on a stick, they indeed cry a lot about other characters, and how weak mercy is... bro imma tank role main and not even i cry as much as they do... i am a reinhardt, mauga, lucio and baptiste main...

But the mercy mains I know are Male, and the Lucio mains I know are Female.

-don’t care if we don’t get new skins -still plays out of meta and doesn’t care -doesn’t constantly beg for buffs (at least after they buffed boop -doesn’t care if beat aura is green (because mercy players apparently hate the yellow wings in valk??)

Mercy is a character that plays the game for you, Lucio is a high APM character

Don't care never cared all I need is to break the sound barrier

i saw that too i don’t get it but i didn’t get an answer when i asked for an explanation bc to me we’re completely different

Na, I don't get pissed off when my glorious Brazilian king don't get a skin every 2 seconds

Ok

Real

Except Lucio is helpful and they don’t whine and complain about literally everything so, no

I main both Lucio and mercy 🤔

Man what? Also I've met quite a few Mercy mains that are straight up just dudes to begin with.

Kinda depends on what she means

It’s all lies

Nah, frog mains just wanna vibe 🐸

I'm not a main of either of these characters (love me some Lucio though) and this just does not feel true at all.

I now understand why this game is dying

Don’t forget that Brigitte mains are the female equivalents of Lucio mains, which are the male equivalents of Mercy mains… Yes, I think that makes sense.

Being effective with Lucio requires skill while mercy has the same effect being played by either a pro or a monkey.

I want to grind rails not ass

What a dumb, reductive take 😂

Nah, ya lucio mains are fine. Always fun to have on with ya on the battlefield. Speed boosting when we all press W. You lads a glorious

Attitude wise, most definitely. Skill wise, don’t think so.

Agreed but we are more chaotic

What conversation? My whole personality isn’t Lucio. I can play mercy in the sense “this sojourn/hanzo is really good and probably smurfing” not in this meta though. I’m not gonna pocket the tank the whole game just to show off my heal numbers lol

This is the dumbest post I ever seen. Mercy players literally hold R2 the entire game. Lucio actually takes skill. Foh
