Fun fact: You can break Junkrat trap with petal! If anyone gets caught by it, toss petal immediately. It will lift them up and out of the line of fire, but it will also break the trap and allow them to get the hell out of there. Lets you save your pull for stickier situations!
I think LWA needs a shorter cooldown on his dash. Kirikos teleport cooldown is only 1 second longer I think and she gets to teleport through anything all the way over to a teammate
@@2anz611 I disagree, LW can pull crazy dmg numbers, but she cant because she has to healbot for any value. only buff would be something like the faster healing charge.
6:46 jsyk, pulling a pulsed character will get you killed along with them (and anybody who’s next to you) unless u time it perfectly. The shield doesn’t stop the splash damage, only protects whoever’s getting gripped. That’s prolly why he didnt grip
Playable? Sure, if all your team needs is healing, but if that is the case nearly any support will do. LW is hurting in every other regard and you'd literally be better off choosing a different support in ANY situation.
In lower ranks, i find that tossing the flower at my teammates is useless. Even if i use the comms to tell them what im doing, they’ll literally just walk off the platform and end up wasting it. Better to place one in the corner and keep the other for yourself IMO.
LW is not completely a "throw pick" now but he's still damn close. What makes me crazy is now with the healing buffs the people that lock him will point to stats and be like, "I did the most healing. Totally not my fault." When a different support could have had 1/4 of the healing and supplied the utility to the team to actually make a difference. With that said, I can at least play around him now which was damn near impossible before.
the healing buffs barely changed anything as people dont usually fully charge anyway, LW always had the most healing cuz its all he does. and yeah its irrelevant healing and bringing no utility
@@silasnebulous4533 I think what he means is LW healing was already high. But it's not really life saving burst healing like say Ana or Bap are capable of. But it is consistent plus his ult does put out a ton of AOE heals so long as it doesn't get shredded. Pretty much every LW I'm in a lobby with now most definitely has the highest healing stats in the lobby. Also quite often the lowest deaths. Yet they usually lose from what I've seen. The utility just isn't there. Sure dude can have clutch grips and with coordination petal can facilitate pretty cool plays. But ultimately I'd rather have a different support to play with.
@@silasnebulous4533 i literally just checked the patch notes again and youre wrong lmao. the only buff was increasing his max charge from 65 to 75, its still a slow charge and ana can heal faster which was my point...
Fun fact for all the lifeweaver’ers put a pedal down and it stays there forever (until activated) so you can have a retreat and by the time you use it the other one is ready.
He likes to call out random people here and there for being "bad." He tried calling out Chazm recently for his "Dogshit DPS," and Chazm got to rank 70 when Metro was 200 on DPS.
@@MetroOW Ah I didn't see the reinhardt one I'll have to watch. Excited to see the future ones too I love how you do these videos they really show me how I can position better. Thanks!
doesn't pull actually pulls the pulse bomb too ? idk maybe that's the reason he didn't pull because if the pulse bomb did explode all the team would die. but he could've timed it right until it explode at that moment use the grip
Zen is all about doing damage and putting pressure on them with discord. If the Zen can kill 3 person a fight, but not heal very much, I’m not gonna complain. But this guy play zen like a melee character though. He can be in silver because the other team also suck. Play like that in Plat and above, he will die in less than 3 seconds.
Weaver tree ult is pretty useless so I tend to use it alot like a mei wall. Can't walk through choke? DW tree is here to block their los. Rein charging me? Block with tree (same for doom haha). Widow being a menace? DW, tree is here to save you. To many coming through one doorway? DW, I block with tree 🤣
Watching this gameplay I think u r 100% right. Tree was destroyed instantly multiple times there and got 0 value. Also blocking enemy team seems more fun 😅
@@Gusik it's incredibly funny to use the tree to block a charging rein or doom. But yeah, I mostly just use it as a tool to block los. It helps with getting past tough spam chokes
currently playing Lifeweaver only in Comp, stuck in Bronze 1, reaching high healing numbers almost every game. and still manage to not rank up. Dont wanna blame teammates, thats too ez to say but at this point, dont know what to do anymore :(
Focus more on securing fights for your team and less on pure healing, motivate your team to take better positions and make sure you aren't just heal botting.
1st Lw is not a good hero to rank up. Better picks for beginners are Baptiste or maybe Kiriko. But if u like this character and want to stay otp lw then maybe find a partner in crime and duo. I also noticed taking high ground in low ranks is op sometimes so try to take Hugh ground and pull your teammates there too.
That Zen belongs to bronze 5. You were too nice to him! So much feeding and frontlining. But good advice about switching to reaper. As per lw... bold statement that he belongs in masters. Not even fitzys lw belongs in masters 😂 also I disagree with "zen and lw are good supp combo". Not enough main heals to outheal a tank in that combo. Everything else - really good advices. Also love ur editor!
I'm fine with lifeweaver but zens..i hate them i always get the worst zens. I pray thati will get good team mates on my rankeds..im tired of getting gold and going down to silver because one of my dps was just 1k dmg or the other suport wasn't healing etc...im getting so tired
@@MetroOW bro ik LOL im just saying do it more zen is such a good character. also there's a lot of misinformation on how he should be used in metal ranks and its infuriating. thanks for ur content man

healing charge time should be reduced. if all he can do is heal he should have as fast healing as ana
Lw don't need more buffs and if they buff anything it needs to be his offensive capabilities rather than defensive lol
Not to mention tp can cleanse effects and make you invulnerable for a split second. 1 second longer for all that value is highway robbery.

2:54 thank you for this, I've nanod so many mercies because they fly by that crosshair that's the size of a hanzo arrow.
love how determined that zen was to kicking people
im a zen 1 trick i climbed from low silver to mid gold in a week and i can say with confidence this zen player does not belong anywhere past silver
When people call supports healers I always need to think about a Voodoo priest saying wuju wuju wuju and sending dps and tank a healing smoke
Thank god someone mentioned the tree is for blocking and the heals is just a bonus
I love having “fun” in comp ;)

@@Gobbygoblin don't forget that his ult is most definitely the least useful support ult.
@Gobbygoblin the healing buff did affect the rate at which the stat goes up. So you are completely wrong.

Shout out to blizzard for giving lifeweaver the tim allen grunt when he hits low health
Take your like and go.

Good video, good edition 💯
10:23 wtf i’m eating mac n’ cheese rn lmao
Pawjob is a crazy name bro 💀💀💀
I expected to see some my kind of zen when he said it was crazy but its just a left clickin frontliner
Oh no I didn't even know his shift healed. XD
This dude seems like the type of player to type ez at the end of the game after getting carried in quickplay

15:17 this edit made me LOL
metro why do you have a mouse cam for reviews
I had the wrong overlay for this one, sorry D:
If you sit back and mainly heal with dealing damage only as last resort Lifeweaver can be really good. I definitely think most people underrate him.
You know the hero is underpowered when Dafran puts a second pause on unranked to top 500
"If you want to play to have fun, play quick play."
ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT
Would love to see you review a tank players gameplay since they have to have very different positioning and it could be helpful!
Already got one up and more are coming :)
@@MetroOW Ah I didn't see the reinhardt one I'll have to watch. Excited to see the future ones too I love how you do these videos they really show me how I can position better. Thanks!
metro, im a big fan of you bro, but damn chazm got his get back on you lol
He's a big fan, man played 100 games just do make that video, my respect :D
doesn't pull actually pulls the pulse bomb too ? idk maybe that's the reason he didn't pull because if the pulse bomb did explode all the team would die. but he could've timed it right until it explode at that moment use the grip
Another banger!
How tf did that zen get into silver man. Most important thing with zen is, if u die more then 4 times on stupid way and cant heal well just switch...
Zen is all about doing damage and putting pressure on them with discord. If the Zen can kill 3 person a fight, but not heal very much, I’m not gonna complain.
But this guy play zen like a melee character though. He can be in silver because the other team also suck. Play like that in Plat and above, he will die in less than 3 seconds.
i think they should have sped up the charge heal too compensate the extra 10 hp
I really like this series

You kinda sound like him.
i don't think he even should be in diamond, that was just sad how many people he could have pulled from death and just didn't.
I agree like silver or gold at best
Wait so thats a silver zen ? Now im mad, im stuck in bronze and even i do better than this
