I think something helpful for both games would be remove the outliers for HP in both games. An outlier (if I recall correctly) is a value that deviates more than 1.5x from the mean
Another important thing to factor about healing is the burst heal of the crusader's crossbow, which is argueably the better part of using it. Since it's not affected by crit heals, you can quickly give a bunch of health to a teammate to hold them over before the crit heals kick in.
@@Toofty I also would have liked it if you factored in that the crossbow auto-reloads when not being held. Meaning you can switch between crossbow and medi-gun to heal someone much faster than would otherwise be possible.

medics uber is like 20x more important than valkyrie. Ults are kept on death, there are 12 of them and valkyrie isn't even one of the best. Uber is one of its kind (i guess banners are like mini ubers) and pro games are based so much on dropping meds, building uber.
Acquiring Uber and using it properly needs teamwork to pull through. Valkyrie is just an ability that needs to be charged and doesn't necessarily need teamwork to be effective since you can distance yourself from your opponents with flight. Really odd that her ability has no form of cooperation despite her being a support character.
He quite literally resembles Egon Spengler with his black hair in the movie and his passion with science. Not to mention some of the sound effects used for the medigun were based from the Ghostbusters proton pack. I think most people know that already.
@@jezdrawz1227This isn’t the first time Valve use Ghostbusters as an inspiration. One of the weapons in Half Life 1 is inspired by the packs use in Ghostbusters (forgot what it was called).
Fun fact: If Medic is healing someone below 142% hp his self heal rate is doubled for a max of 12hp/s after about 9 seconds from taking damage. This almost halves the time to self heal to full from 30ish to 16 seconds. So if you’re injured as medic then healing a non buffed player will heal you faster.
Without the bare chested cosmetic, however, I did the math and found that Medic is more visually appealing to intelligent people and Mercy is more appealing to creeps.
The way I see it, the "Uber versus Resurrection" debate goes something like this -Ubercharge allows for the player to not die -ressurection bring them back from death this **obviously** shows that Medic cares more about the people he's healing as he stops them from dying, whereas mercy waits for them to die before bringing them back thank you for coming to my ted talk
His personality desagrees. Hes a psychopath, dont get me wrong its an interisting idea for the healer and really bring the stuff together, but he prob doesn't care if you die, he'll be like "ah damn he's doing. Anyway"
@@usernametaken017 was mostly kidding and trying to make a joke, but yeah, you are totally right.

It is my feeling as a personal competitive medic main myself that you left out the crossbow. Not accusing the video or anything but the burst healing of the crossbow is honestly better than the medi gun itself, that combined with the auto reload feature of it makes medic (in my belief) have much higher skill ceiling due to aiming/managing arrows and more heal potential
Shout out to all you comp medics. That crossbow has saved my ass so many times, especially as a heavy main, who is often down 100+ hp and still fighting
You know what makes that even funnier, I’m pretty sure the guy who got his skeleton removed was still alive! He also did ‘live’ heart surgery on a still-conscious Heavy, replaced the whole Team’s hearts with baboon hearts and brought Sniper back from Heaven. Not to mention bargained with the Devil himself. So the dude is crazy
"Vait, it gets better! So when ze man *woke up,* his skeleton was missing, and ze doctor was never heard from again!" Yeah. Medic removed a guy's skeleton without killing him, which is mind-blowing when you consider the nervous system and how intertwined with your bones it is (especially your brain and spinal cord).
Why does this bring to mind the time I searched up cursed paul blart images and found the masterpiece known as blart cart 8: don't mess with his coconut mall.
Idk if it's a joke but Mercy defends herself with mobility. She is practically an evasion tank. Why fight her enemies if she can keep helping her team while avoiding death
@@dankdilly Mercy can Defend and Support but not Offend, while medic can Defend, Offend, and Support, especialy with his Crusaders Crosbow and Ubersaw, which are for Defense and Offense, while the Medi-gun is for support
If you ask me it's about the same overall. Both have easy characters to master, both have extremely difficult characters to get the most out of. And in both the main skill you're going to need is game sense.
@@valipower4468 honestly, Overwatch's just a different dynamic. There's depth to it, but it's a different kind of depth. Also the recent patch coming to Overwatch improves it a lot.
In TF2 you have a lot more to learn per character, in Overwatch you have to learn the basics of all the heroes. In my opinion TF2 is a lot harder to master.
About matching your heal Target's speed. I am not sure if you are talking about pubs or 6s, but in 6s this change is HUGE. It completely changed the meta in 6s because scouts can now be ubered reliably, and they can get medic out of trouble. This is a very big change to the game.
Quick fix uber just kinda pimp slaps any of mercys healing, and I feel that 150% on demand is worth more than occasional revive since as a healer your one job is to keep your team alive not to bring them back when they die since you were SUCH, A BAD, DOCTOR! Still though great video! I love these comparisons!
@E Lafon I'm aware, but it's only available every 30 seconds. Overheal can buff multiple teammates at a time on demand. It's also able to turn the tide as rather than multiple light classes getting killed by a sniper each would be able to survive an uncharged shot and retreat to cover rather than respawning, which in tf2 can take considerably longer making prevention of the death worth even more.
@E Lafon Tf2 is team based as well, especially in competitive modes such as Highlander. And a numbers advantage is applicable to literally any team based shooter, more people in the fight = higher chance of success. And once again tf2s longer respawn makes losing a player just as if not more punishing than losing someone in Overwatch.
@E Lafon A team with good team work vs a team without it means the team with it will win 9/10 times. And even if it's not as much teamwork required it's only because Tf2 has considerably less Rock Paper Scissors balancing, every class except maybe medic has a moderate chance to beat classes that counter it where as in Overwatch an actual counter is almost always a HARD counter. You can be individually effective even against classes who have an advantage over you in Tf2 where as in Overwatch a character with an advantage over you is usually "I have been trained for my entire life to eliminate you in particular, prepare to die!" Unless the advantage is extremely minor. Not saying that's a bad thing, I like both games and think the way they balance works well for each, but Overwatch is much more X beats Y than Tf2 and as such you are more or less forced to stick with your team so that Z can counter Y when they attack X.
in my calculation: the medic is more powerful because he is intelligent and he even created his own stuff like inventing a beam that heals organic beings
You also forgot to mention 2 additional passives that Medic has: his current health regen doubles if he heals an injured ally. Medic's medibeam also provides 50% duration reduction of most debuffs (jarate, mad milk, wetness, fire).
Sees enemy Mercy : Flies away and camps for deaths she can immediately reverse, drawing out the game and punishing good moves from opponents Medic : Hippety hoppity that 25% overcharge is now my property Mercy : "You can't do that, healers reverse pain, not cause it!" Medic : **Laughs in scammed the devil, brought Sniper back from 12 hour death, done several transplants while the patients were awake, and made one of his healing machines out of a garden hose and coffee maker. And it can **_still_** make coffee**
Quite surprised you didn't speak about the quick fix. Sure the downside is pretty heavy, but i was interested in the fact if medic can go ahead of mercy flat rate (both in combat ) due to the upside of the quickfix
Medic: Nice health regen and movement speed mercy now it's my turn Fräulein Equips amputator, overdose, kritkrieg, and most importantly equips a beard and his bare chest Medic: oh that's a long healing beam Equips crusader crossbow Medic: oh you can fly Equips quick fix and sticks with a demoman, demoknight (the quick fix also makes medic charge), and a soldier.
You should also look at crossbow heals(46-92hp/s) and quick-fix(33-100hp/s, 300 while ubercharged). Those greatly increase healing speed. Best one is amputator that heal entire team at once with ridiculous speed(25-75hp/s on single teammate, 275-825hp/s on full team). All math is done so please, reconsider your opinion. Edit: fixed errors and made slighly easier to read.
Tf2 is a valuable game with each character different than the other When it’s overwatch it feels like everything is getting recycled with little changes
12:02 I would just put angelic descent on a 2 since it pairs really well with "super-jumps" and without it pharah+mercy wouldn't be the thing it is. The damage amp is usefull but i still don't use it as much, I would also put it at a 2-3. Great video by the way!
At higher levels of play, the main and pretty much only purpose of mercy is to amp the damage of the dps heros (due to her low amounts of healing compared to other supports). A perfect comparison would be spy in highlander, where his main purpose is to gather intel rather than simply going for backstabs.
If you can consistently hit Crusader's Crossbow shots, it actually outheals not just the Medigun but also Mercy, even at minimum distance from the target. That burst healing makes a huge difference in fights, too; it's like getting an Ana grenade that does more healing going by your ratio every 1.6 seconds, but for a single target. Edit: further, the Amputator sort of changes everything if we're comparing theoretical healing maximums and not just standard healing rates. Say that you have a team of heavies who are all standing by you and they're at 1 HP. You'd be healing 275 HP per second since the aura affects all of them. Now say that they've been out of combat for 15 seconds: that's 825 HP per second. The taunt lasts 4.2 seconds, so at the absolute most extreme maximum, you could be healing up to 3,465 damage in just 4.2 seconds.
*Medic:* Is devoted to keeping you alive while still being a mad scientist. *Mercy:* More concerned about her self while trying to be honorable. Its like pottery, it rhymes.
Honestly thinking bout this, I'd take the Syringe Gun over Mercy's pistol thingy do dob any day. (Yes I use Syringe Gun....yes I prefer it over Crossbow....I just like to defend myself in casual mkay?!"
In terms of impact, I'd give the resurrection like at least 4, imagine finally killing a very annoying enemy that was rolling your team after putting in a lot of effort just for them to get resed a second later
Great video. But ... I feel you undermined the importance of the crossbow, and not only at long ranges. Long range is actually where it sees the smallest usage I'd say. It's heal rate is better than the medigun I believe, it allows a burst of health every other second while you keep beaming during reloads, it can bypass some healing reductions and gives time for crit heals to build ...
Overwatch has a lower skill ceiling for single characters however probably has a similar, but slightly higher skill ceiling than tf2 due to the large cast
*laughs in almost 2000 possible loadouts, each changing how a class is played (160 weapons/9 classes/3 slots is average of about 6 weapons per slot 6*6*6=216 combinations per class *9=1944 it's on average ok)
Medic: I can make people immortal for a short time and can heal people above their maximum health as a boost. I even a very interesting character in the comics and am a huge part of lore. Mercy: look at meee! Im flyyying!
I would say mercy has a higher skill ceiling because of things like super jumping, beam uptime and knowing when to use damage boost. I main Mercy and a lot of newer Mercy’s tend to either not use these abilities or not take them into account. Edit: Damage amp is one of the most impactful things Mercy has in her kit, especially with Valkyrie since she can give her whole team a damage boost. (I still really enjoyed the video this is just a Mercy main’s brow on some of the stats)

Not accusing the video or anything but the burst healing of the crossbow is honestly better than the medi gun itself, that combined with the auto reload feature of it makes medic (in my belief) have much higher skill ceiling due to aiming/managing arrows and more heal potential
Shout out to all you comp medics. That crossbow has saved my ass so many times, especially as a heavy main, who is often down 100+ hp and still fighting

Medic once stole whole skeleton from person. Can Mercy do that? I don't think so
You know what makes that even funnier, I’m pretty sure the guy who got his skeleton removed was still alive!
He also did ‘live’ heart surgery on a still-conscious Heavy, replaced the whole Team’s hearts with baboon hearts and brought Sniper back from Heaven. Not to mention bargained with the Devil himself. So the dude is crazy
"Vait, it gets better! So when ze man *woke up,* his skeleton was missing, and ze doctor was never heard from again!"
Yeah. Medic removed a guy's skeleton without killing him, which is mind-blowing when you consider the nervous system and how intertwined with your bones it is (especially your brain and spinal cord).

ZE HEALING IS NOT REWARDING AZ ZE HURTING
I don't know why you are worried, skill ceilings are higher in TF2.
If you ask me it's about the same overall. Both have easy characters to master, both have extremely difficult characters to get the most out of. And in both the main skill you're going to need is game sense.
@@valipower4468 honestly, Overwatch's just a different dynamic. There's depth to it, but it's a different kind of depth.
Also the recent patch coming to Overwatch improves it a lot.
per character the skill ceiling is far higher on tf2, but overwatch forces you to learn much more very different characters to succeed.
@E Lafon And in the English Language you have good grammar.
In TF2 you have a lot more to learn per character, in Overwatch you have to learn the basics of all the heroes. In my opinion TF2 is a lot harder to master.
The medic, the medic does, because he heals our hearts when we are sad.
About matching your heal Target's speed. I am not sure if you are talking about pubs or 6s, but in 6s this change is HUGE. It completely changed the meta in 6s because scouts can now be ubered reliably, and they can get medic out of trouble. This is a very big change to the game.
Bro how is Mercy slightly more "iconic" when she's designed after Medic as it's been confirmed by Jeff Kaplan himself lol.
Medic, the class everyone loves but no one wants to play
Spy, the class no one loves but everyone wants to play.
I actually main medic
I'm a medic main
I main medic too lol
0:22 is that even a valid question? There is no doubt that the medic from tf2 is much hotter
Yes
Tick tock heavy like a brinks truck
as a straight male, i can objectively say that medic is hotter
I like how the thumbnail has the characters with their weapons out despite the video being about healing
Lmaoo
Quick fix uber just kinda pimp slaps any of mercys healing, and I feel that 150% on demand is worth more than occasional revive since as a healer your one job is to keep your team alive not to bring them back when they die since you were SUCH, A BAD, DOCTOR!
Still though great video! I love these comparisons!
@E Lafon I'm aware, but it's only available every 30 seconds. Overheal can buff multiple teammates at a time on demand. It's also able to turn the tide as rather than multiple light classes getting killed by a sniper each would be able to survive an uncharged shot and retreat to cover rather than respawning, which in tf2 can take considerably longer making prevention of the death worth even more.
@E Lafon Tf2 is team based as well, especially in competitive modes such as Highlander. And a numbers advantage is applicable to literally any team based shooter, more people in the fight = higher chance of success. And once again tf2s longer respawn makes losing a player just as if not more punishing than losing someone in Overwatch.
@E Lafon A team with good team work vs a team without it means the team with it will win 9/10 times. And even if it's not as much teamwork required it's only because Tf2 has considerably less Rock Paper Scissors balancing, every class except maybe medic has a moderate chance to beat classes that counter it where as in Overwatch an actual counter is almost always a HARD counter. You can be individually effective even against classes who have an advantage over you in Tf2 where as in Overwatch a character with an advantage over you is usually "I have been trained for my entire life to eliminate you in particular, prepare to die!" Unless the advantage is extremely minor.
Not saying that's a bad thing, I like both games and think the way they balance works well for each, but Overwatch is much more X beats Y than Tf2 and as such you are more or less forced to stick with your team so that Z can counter Y when they attack X.
@E Lafon A team without teamwork in tf2 just gets destroyed (unless carried by a pro player).
@E Lafon why did you say your comment twice?
Toofty: Healers are the lowest damage dealers
Zenyatta: Yes, but actually no.

In the Army, the 68W's motto is "Do no harm, do know harm, I do harm."
The medic in TF2 definitely knows harm.
You also forgot to mention 2 additional passives that Medic has: his current health regen doubles if he heals an injured ally. Medic's medibeam also provides 50% duration reduction of most debuffs (jarate, mad milk, wetness, fire).

I've always felt that Mercy is closer to Medic with the Overdose and Quickfix loadout, you should probably compare these two.
Sees enemy
Mercy : Flies away and camps for deaths she can immediately reverse, drawing out the game and punishing good moves from opponents
Medic : Hippety hoppity that 25% overcharge is now my property
Mercy : "You can't do that, healers reverse pain, not cause it!"
Medic : **Laughs in scammed the devil, brought Sniper back from 12 hour death, done several transplants while the patients were awake, and made one of his healing machines out of a garden hose and coffee maker. And it can **_still_** make coffee**

Quite surprised you didn't speak about the quick fix. Sure the downside is pretty heavy, but i was interested in the fact if medic can go ahead of mercy flat rate (both in combat ) due to the upside of the quickfix

You should also look at crossbow heals(46-92hp/s) and quick-fix(33-100hp/s, 300 while ubercharged). Those greatly increase healing speed. Best one is amputator that heal entire team at once with ridiculous speed(25-75hp/s on single teammate, 275-825hp/s on full team). All math is done so please, reconsider your opinion.
Edit: fixed errors and made slighly easier to read.
Tf2 is a valuable game with each character different than the other
When it’s overwatch it feels like everything is getting recycled with little changes
8:41 id just like to say i think medic defenitely wins with that bottom one
12:02 I would just put angelic descent on a 2 since it pairs really well with "super-jumps" and without it pharah+mercy wouldn't be the thing it is. The damage amp is usefull but i still don't use it as much, I would also put it at a 2-3. Great video by the way!
There's a reason why few people use the BASE jumper. If you want mobility as a healer, somehow becoming a sitting duck doesn't seem appealing
At higher levels of play, the main and pretty much only purpose of mercy is to amp the damage of the dps heros (due to her low amounts of healing compared to other supports). A perfect comparison would be spy in highlander, where his main purpose is to gather intel rather than simply going for backstabs.
If you can consistently hit Crusader's Crossbow shots, it actually outheals not just the Medigun but also Mercy, even at minimum distance from the target. That burst healing makes a huge difference in fights, too; it's like getting an Ana grenade that does more healing going by your ratio every 1.6 seconds, but for a single target.
Edit: further, the Amputator sort of changes everything if we're comparing theoretical healing maximums and not just standard healing rates. Say that you have a team of heavies who are all standing by you and they're at 1 HP. You'd be healing 275 HP per second since the aura affects all of them. Now say that they've been out of combat for 15 seconds: that's 825 HP per second. The taunt lasts 4.2 seconds, so at the absolute most extreme maximum, you could be healing up to 3,465 damage in just 4.2 seconds.
at least Medic actually dressed up like an actual doctor

*Medic:* Is devoted to keeping you alive while still being a mad scientist.

I had no idea about the crit healing mechanic. Good video man!
In terms of impact, I'd give the resurrection like at least 4, imagine finally killing a very annoying enemy that was rolling your team after putting in a lot of effort just for them to get resed a second later
Great video. But ...
I feel you undermined the importance of the crossbow, and not only at long ranges. Long range is actually where it sees the smallest usage I'd say.
It's heal rate is better than the medigun I believe, it allows a burst of health every other second while you keep beaming during reloads, it can bypass some healing reductions and gives time for crit heals to build ...
Overwatch has a lower skill ceiling for single characters however probably has a similar, but slightly higher skill ceiling than tf2 due to the large cast
*laughs in almost 2000 possible loadouts, each changing how a class is played

Medic: I can make people immortal for a short time and can heal people above their maximum health as a boost. I even a very interesting character in the comics and am a huge part of lore.
Mercy: look at meee! Im flyyying!
I would say mercy has a higher skill ceiling because of things like super jumping, beam uptime and knowing when to use damage boost.
I main Mercy and a lot of newer Mercy’s tend to either not use these abilities or not take them into account.
Edit: Damage amp is one of the most impactful things Mercy has in her kit, especially with Valkyrie since she can give her whole team a damage boost.
(I still really enjoyed the video this is just a Mercy main’s brow on some of the stats)
