@@Foggycallabasashillshelicopter why you gotta be so petty? This concept + understanding the range of your hero is the difference between the very top and good players. All of these things, as simple as they are on paper, are ultimately what enables you to make use of your resources as effectively as they can be. Also, I'll play devil's advocate, it's not as intuitive as you might think. As Tracer, using your whole clip on a tank nets you a 1/4 of their entire hp, use your whole clip on a squishy, you get a kill. This is why 'target priority' became such a popular advice in educational ow and phrases like 'don't shoot the tank', because it is more intuitive to attack a target that's more fragile to be more effective. This video shows that it actually depends on your positioning

Target priority is actually way more complex than just go for squishies. It depends on so many factors. Positioning, who’s using an ultimate, is someone low, who’s on your team, who’s on their team, and it changes constantly. I think the best players are also those that can quickly reevaluate each situation.

I think this is why Awkward's "always be shooting" advice works so well, this is just a much better explanation of it. He prioritizes getting a good position, particularly one where the enemy isn't shooting back at him, and then just shoots whatever is in front of him. Sure there are certain targets that are better to shoot, but it's more important to be constantly outputting value than to always target the "correct" hero. Also I think Awkward is not a good person but he is good at Overwatch. Don't take this as an endorsement of him.

Yea and this goes with any offensive ult really. You make a quick checklist of "what would be the easiest and most convenient way for the enemy team to negate my attempt at value", and then you either target that player, or wait for their cd to be used, or for them to simply not be close enough in proximity to have influence over your play. Just like how you don't pulse a Moira as Tracer even if she's super convenient, unless you specifically saw her use fade already. Or a Kiri who likely has Suzu or tp, etc. There are always caveats to any baseline approach, and navigating that aspect just comes down to ability matchup experience to make a quick assessment on the fly.

What I find most frustrating with low level players is they have this bizarre obsession with what you are "supposed" to do vs. to what is more advantageous at that particular moment.

I think a pitfall players may fall into, is hearing you Spilo say one thing being bad, and then in the gameplay they still get an elim out of it. The thing people may not realize, is that the elim is just a 50/50 vs equal skill players -whereas the proper play that may not have led to an elim in that particular case, would still grant an overall advantage in majority of games not just vs people at your skill level, but also those above you in the ranks you wish to climb into. I see it as the OW equivalent of confirmation bias, where anything that leads to an elim is taken as positive reinforcement, even if the underlying play actually was bad and it was more to do with pure coincidence and probably misplay on the opponents side, rather than skill and good play on your own side.

I also use this same similar tactic in golf. Stop trying to aim directly for the hole and aim for the green. Too many people think they're pros and whiff more than 50% of the time and het upset and quit. Aim for the best position that you can easily roll it in the hole next. Play bogey golf.

This video needs to be on the OW splash page... I had this argument just yesterday as Ashe with a Brig flaming me for shooting tank (an assumption based on my dmg numbers being high but less kills). It was during Clash and I had high ground and was regularly using dynamite on the backline to force them to disengage and was watching for the Tracer flank (could hear her trying to wrap around) while shooting the opposite high ground to keep Junkrat off of it. I felt like I had zero downtime and was constantly pressuring and forcing them back, but our Brig kept chasing our Tank into the backline and dying. It was Clash - there was no reason to chase if we had good control of objective and good position. They had an Ana Mercy so forcing them away even if they didn't die was to me huge value. The rest of the time I just shot the tank because he was available and i wanted to help tip the tank match. I honestly felt like I was focusing evenly on everything and staying alive and protecting the flank. On top of that, the Brig was not in chat so was missing all the call outs and ult tracking. Another way to look at it for me is when you are playing against someone who understands this type of gameplay. It is immediately harder to play against them and when you see what they are doing, they are doing exactly what you said - not falling for the flank bait like the sym was trying to do in the clip towards the end and protecting position and going for what is available. I hate playing against smart people...! Overwatch is definitely a team game but playing smarter and not harder is a real advantage.

I just got back into overwatch as zen, I've definitely noticed this, but it's good to see it put into words. I like sitting right behind the tank in a poke battle, or far in backline, or near a super well positioned/non-squishy dps. When I chase down picks, initially I was trying to go for these insane offangles, I waste time and cause people to die. But when I hit that slightly wide angle that puts awkward pressure on a team from a safe position as my general goal, I do far better. Because even in the act of focusing on a target, you're actively sacrificing the best possible postion to do something you're only half made to do, instead of dedicating to the thing only you can do, I'm sure it's similar for dive chars, or dps

Just don't keep shooting at a mauga or hog with full heals, stop running down main getting lit up (feeding), and don't wait until the end of the game like a pussy and tell everyone they suck with 1 sec left on POG so no one can respond. Especially when you don't offer any constructive criticism in the match (these people usually have ass stats too or good stats in the wrong places claiming "they" were doing their job").

Excuse me if I'm wrong, but aren't the basics of the target priority argument "assuming all things are equal you should shoot this person instead of this person" and "you should try to leverage positions that allow you to shoot preferred targets"? As Genji/Tracer for example, your preferred targets are still the squishes and low HP targets. If you can shoot a squishy or a tank, it is preferred to shoot the squishy. If the tank is low, the tank takes priority. If you can only shoot the tank, that's fine, but you should probably prioritize positioning that allows you to shoot the squishes

My thought process is "Get into a position that is most likely going to allow me to shoot at the valuable target (squishies), however along my path to get into that position, shoot at whoever I see, just don't get caught up on shooting that target if they aren't killable do to a number of factors, just keep moving to the position that should yield a good angle on the target I actually want to try and pressure/kill, but totally shoot at whoever along the way. If I get to the desired position and my target is not there, don't ignore any other targets that I can shoot at, but also, I may need to rotate to a new position to go after the desired target if what I can see from my current position isn't very good." Basically, do damage and get some value, even if it's not the desired target because that's better than just doing nothing. And if it turns out that the target I wasn't actually initially going for becomes killable, then help secure that kill. If that target is able to manage staying alive due to their own abilities, finding cover from me, etc. then don't waste much time on it since they aren't killable and rotate again to a target that is easier to shoot at and possibly kill. You're intended target may not be the one you end up going after to kill as things change quickly in the game and some other target may be very killable.

I'm playing Mercy and my team just forced their way onto the point. I pushed in with them to keep them alive, but there are Sym turrets that the rest of my team ignored and pushed past. If I push past them as well, I will put myself in line of fire and give up a good position, but my teammates are now critical health because they expect me to just heal them if they take damage so they seem to be face-tanking the team, so my dilemma is this, do I pull out a pistol and destroy the Sym turrets, one of which is killing me, or do I keep healing my teammates so they don't die and risk dying myself? Or do I give up on competitive games because I keep getting the kind of teammates who won't destroy the Sym turrets even when I ping them and call them out? I guess in retrospect I could have looked for another position that's just as good (or slightly worse) but doesn't have a sym turret beaming it, but the problem is that as Mercy as soon as you make yourself visible, even if you then hide in a good position, the flankers have now "seen" you and are hard-focusing you, so I try not to make myself visible because the ranks I play in people still don't understand that on the other side of the healing beam is Mercy, they need to physically see her to give chase.

Now I have to sweat my ass off which is not fun, and most of the time it is for nothing because of all the free sustain that is now given to them. I enjoyed all roles in the early season of overwatch2 when game sense and positioning mattered. Now that they have basically taken all that away from me, just to gave it to brainless players for free. None of the roles are enjoyable for me and I hate the devs for making this game more and more casual. There is nothing competitive about this game anymore.

but overwatch team said "just shoot the mercy" in moth meta. So we know that target prio > all other game skills and knowledge

But like this doesn’t work vs heroes like weaver. Me and Winston dive a target and they get pulled a mile away is a huge waste of our resources

chasing is almost always bad in any game that requires real skill, sadly chasing is fine in overwatch because the game is a rigged fuck fest.

You talk about this being simple and intuitive but it's not, at least for me. The first example of widow just shooting supports instead of the other widow, sure. But holding an angle and taking angles and prioritizing the angle over the target, none of that is intuitive for me. Maybe I've just stopped listening to my intuition and started listening too much to people who tell me to focus the supports. This video opened doors for me. It's the second time I watch it and now I feel much more competent. Like I have a bit more understanding of the game.

Especially holding an angle. I didn't see the value of that before. It was also the recent video about top 500 tracers not following your advice.

I noticed that i am performing a lot better with flanking characters this season, such as Reaper and Tracer. I have completely dropped hitscan and only pick it up if there's an annoying Pharah or Echo, and even then, sometimes Torb turret does the job for me. After the nerfs to support health pools the game feels a lot fairer for the dps and you feel as if you actually make a difference again, unlike Season 11 where the supports had all the mobility and survivability in the world and managed to healbot their gigabuffed tank the entire time.

I am going to use your Venture positioning advice for my flank Junkrat, surely this will work wonders :D tysm

One of the biggest things I tell the Tracer or Genji players I coach is to not go out of their way to get to the widow or zen, etc.

A video all about someone wanting to prove that they are right. Lol gen z man. So mid.
The first target priority would be the supports, without them all the others will hit the dust!

As someone who comes from TF2, the epiphany I had here was that it’s just playing the Medic in TF2. He’s target #1 and a lot less survivable than any OW support, and it’s 12v12, so bad positioning can get you killed very fast. As Medic usually I find a nice spot where I’m not in danger of flankers, snipers, or spam down main and just heal whoever happens to be in healing range within my chosen spot for the current gamestate, only taking heal priority into account if I’m surrounded by 3 guys who all need heals. Now just apply that to Overwatch and all roles. Damn…

And on the other end there's the OW player that's very new to TF2 (me) who never realized all of the advice here applies to Medic. I usually just follow the mob of players on my team and hope their presence saves me from backstabs, headshots and crockets like cannon fodder. I sometimes find myself wishing I had Fade or Swift Step.

@@rg3892 as a Medic main this logic doesn’t always apply, it just applies some of the item and that’s my way of understanding it. If you want to get better at medic I recommend KZitemrs ArraySeven, Theory-Y, and Mr Slin. Good luck!
