He's basically the Zenyatta of this game. A DPS character disguised as a support, his soul chain can negate a lot of strong ults if used correctly & his healing output is fairly solid.
@@britainstanley2420 agreed, Mantis is definitely more like Zenyatta with the dmg boost leaf acting as a global discord orb against the enemy, and the healing leaf acting as a harmony orb. Even Mantis ult is similar to Zen except she can still output damage in it.
I have played a good amount of Adam and i can say: he is good. But when comparing to the likes of luna and CnD he is a bit short His power lies in the burst potential of the right/left click combo which can deal 90% hp of a squishy (kill if left click is a headshot). But other than that he doesn't excel in other category, his heals is ok and comes out really quick but pale in comparison to the heals of any other strategist. The soul bond is more of a anti burst and how it works makes it feels kinda mid. His ult on paper sound like the old mercy rez and can easily turn around team fight. But in practice, the range of it isn't that big so you cant be in the backline, you'll need to be somewhat near where your team died to rez them. But they spawn with 100hp so the enemies can easily team wipe again Imo i think he need some minor buff to enhance his supporting capability. But currently his gameplay feels absolutely great with the 1tap combo
Adam is not even close to being the weakest if you use his alternate fire a ton. I have 10 hours on him and got to plat 1 with him. We always talk about the high value of burst damage and healing... that's his entire kit. I don't understand how ml7 thinks he is the weakest. He's the 4th best strategist behind Luna, mantis, and C/D at the worst. Possibly even better if in the right hands. ml7 is using his primary fire way too much like you would on mantis or Luna and not using his one tap potential at all so yeah... he feels weak if you play him like this. He works best in poke comps. Spam your alternate fire and follow up with primary fire headshots. He doesn't work great with dive but dive isn't great in this game anyways. As an Adam main this was hard to watch. And it's kinda annoying that he's calling Adam the weakest when he's not even playing him right. He clearly has only played a couple games on him and it shows.
@@doom7607he's not even close to being the weakest strategist y'all are just playing him wrong you should be spamming alternate fire and following up with a headshot from primary fire constantly
Disagree. Strategists do a lot of healing in this game, but they're terrible against dive, most don't stand a chance especially against the dive tanks. In Overwatch supports can duel. Really other than Mantis you don't stand a chance against all the dive DPS and Tanks in this game.
@ x to doubt. Luna can freeze/run away. Loki can teleport/stealth/immortality field. Rocket has two dashes and a wall crawl. Basically all strategist besides Adam can survive a dive. And if you’re still dying ask yourself this. “Am I positioning poorly? Did I misuse my cooldowns? Was I being dove by multiple people? If multiple people then why didn’t your team help you?” Strategists are the best characters in the game. Period.
@@DishonestLimit yeah pretty much. Or like having a spine with scoliosis. Sure it hurts but you still need it to function and can be repaired with effort (playing around the Adam).
Right now when people are still new to the game raw healing output seems the strongest. I say this because I’ve seen people walking in to fights where their health pools are going down to 50% and then back up to 100% while I’m healing then as Jeff Adam is not one of those people but his kit when utilised right with a team that knows how to reduce damage taken while the other heals is getting their health back up can be insanely strong He’s not gonna be your solo healer pick that’s for sure, but him tied in with like a Luna or Jeff I can see doing really well
I hate it when people say Adam is the "worst/weakest healer" cuz he is not, he is really strong but he is pretty comp dependent, enemy comp to be precise, his burst healing is amazing and his shift is one of if not THE strongest basic ability in the game so good usage of it can save your entire team, that is why it has such a long cooldown, he is amazing when enemy has dive comp but he is pretty bad if enemy has poke comp since he cannot do sustained healing that well, his ult is also one of the best if used correctly, just majority of players have no idea how to use it correctly, also his M1 and M2 are so good, his damage output is so nice and you can easily pick a support or sniper from the backline with it people just need to get good and not blame character for "being bad"
the weakest part about Adam is that, if the enemy team plays Loki, they have access to Adam's ult (debatable-y the strongest in the game) while being a better character
Seems like they made Adam very weak on purpose because of his resurrection option. They didn't want a Year 1 Mercy where you rez the entire team though either. But he needs buffs everything is weak and rez is bad because you get rezzed with no health in the middle of a fight and just die again. You get rezzed and you're scrambling to find a health pack.
I just save 1-2 charges of healing if i know I'm gonna be ressing. It sucks to use a ress and watch your teammates die again. ._. Probably have to save shift too just to be sure they survive. But in most cases i just try to res them behind a wall or something so that they wouldn't get sniped that easily.
I don't think you are supposed to use your normal fire at all with rocket, u keep spamming heals 24/7 and it's really powerful, you also have great escape tools while also self-healing so it's hard to kill you. I see my friend playing rocket a lot, and he does good but barely breaks 2k dmg usually
@@equinoxwb1367 ur forgetting he is a utility champion.. he basically enables team by ult and team-up, plus he has a revive ability and my healing is way more than my other sup like everytime
Most of my playtime has been on this hero so far, and he really has this poke playstyle, similar to how you right click choke points as Zen in OW. Im also a Zen player in OW (1000+ hours on him) so it feels somewhat similar. But he's also a glass cannon, he's very easy to dive. He has no escape abilities or any stun abilities, most he can do is heal himself and soul bond on too much pressure. But if the enemy team has multiple flank DPS and dive tanks you're better off playing a different character
4:50 in that scenario, would it be unreasonable to think if you canceled your self rez youd still get revived by your ult? If so thats a small tip to improve with
Adam is strong if u can land shots. He just needs some buffs like more mobility, and buff his ult. I play Adam despite being bad at aim cuz I like how easy it is to heal teammates
I really don't feel Adam is weak. The problem right now is just that Mantis and Luna Snow are just broken as fuck so there's no reason to pick anything other than those two. Rocket is probably the weakest unless you have a decent Punisher or Bucky on your team.
the only reason i dont play adam as much as other sups is he just has no movement and this game is very fast pased you have mfs swinging and flying everywhere i just fell like a stick in the mud with him
I wish for adam and rocket have a little mechanic to where if adam dies without going ghost, he can go to a rocket res-beacon, use it but not destroy it
You good, Big Dog. I play support/Strat because I want to. But When I get more kills as support and 15k healing I question my fellow players 😊. < Rocket, Luna and Mantis player.
Imo there's no such thing as "the worst" or even "the best" in this game. It is so well balanced, that every hero can be somehow useful when it's in right hands
There are plenty of heroes that are just better than others lol. Hela and Hawkeye are literally server admin in high elo atm, for example. But as far as specialists go, Adam is far from the worst.
This video is just click bait. Adam is a very good support and personally i think he is even better than Mantis/Luna. Mantis heals with healing over time while Adam has burst healing which is often better, and Luna requires aim to heal while with Adam it is much easier. Adam shift is a very strong ability that can negate one shot ultis or very strong ultis. His ultimate is one of the best ultis in the whole game because you can resurrect your team after a full wipe and basically win the fights. The thing that Adam really lacks however is self defense. Every other support can escape or defend better, Mantis can sleep/ Luna can freeze/ Loki can turn invisible etc. Adam has no movement abilities and no cc so it is crucial to play around corners and try to poke/heal from safe distance. But not too far, if you get dove by psyloche or ironfist you can go near teammates and shift to share damage. Overall i think Adam is a very safe pick and beginner friendly hero for his healing. His right click also does not have range fall off damage which is really important. I think the reason why people think Adam is not a strong support is because other supports get often higher healing numbers, but it is unfair to just consider healing because team resurrect and sharing damage is also very important. Mantis/Luna has both massive healing ultis so for sure they are going to have high healing numbers.
weakest? he's easily the third strongest behind mantis and luna 😭 not to mention his team-up with mantis is as broken as it gets and his right click is really good and his shift is kinda busted too

Mantis dps is better since she can even boost herself

@@tobe.moemeka his right click can't headshot, which really hurts him tbh.
His soul bound ability can almost completely negate any OHKO ult if played correctly
Especially when u soul bind your whole team and bounce heals. Nobody is dying at all
Csn you explain his soul bound ability? I've re read it bunch of times and still kinda confused what it does exactly 😅
He's only weak when you don't know how to use him properly.
He's especially weak on low ELO because none of your teammates have any concept of grouping up
You practically get little to no value from soul bond
I have played a good amount of Adam and i can say: he is good. But when comparing to the likes of luna and CnD he is a bit short

how hard is it for you to understand that being the weakest doesnt necessarily mean being weak. Mong
@@AKA_Keegs I’m just correcting a statement I don’t know who’s the strongest or weakest or care
Adam it's on the top 3 stronger healers for sure, this is just dirty clickbait
you can animation cancel his left click by alternating quickly between left and right clicks. i think it doubles his fire rate.
the weakest stratagest is without a doublt raccoon thp
Not true. Rocket is always played in eternity rank. His ult is too good.
Racoon is decent on defense with his res though
@@kroneexe
Why the fuck is his ult considered even remotely good when it’s objectively just Luna’s ult but a lot worse…?

Adam’s big problem is lack of mobility but other than that he is super strong IMO
@@Mr_BB_Man facts I one shot iron man or storm out the air all the time, played right he can out damage people easily
My Strategist Ranks:
Mantis
Luna Snow
Cloak and Dagger
Loki
Jeff The Land Shark
Adam Warlock
Rocket Raccoon
Jeff becomes pretty low in higher ELO he’s kinda like the Moira of Rivals wherein they only have high healing and no utility to offer
Most of my playtime has been on this hero so far, and he really has this poke playstyle, similar to how you right click choke points as Zen in OW.

- "WEAKEST strategist"
- is nonstop talking about how good adam is
the weakest nuclear bomb is pretty damn dangerous
I do think he needs a little self-peel tool. Besides that, he's definitely not weak
I feel like he is a greater poker, I got mostly wins with Adam.
Plus he gives insane value to StarLord and Mantis thanks to the auto-raise.
I used to think soul bond was the worst ability in the game when i started because teammates literally got me killed by tanking too much damage 😢
Lmao imagine thinking Adam is weak...
There’s a difference between being weak, and the weakest strategist. Just means they’re all pretty strong if that’s the “weakest”.
@iihellionii9742 he not weak or the weakest...lol
When Jeff and rocket exist I think it’s hard to say Adam is the weakest. However he is a shell of beta Adam lol
@@iihellionii9742 Jeff is by far worse than Adam lol, Adam is arguably the best behind Mantis and Luna Snow
Is rocket not the weakest strategist?
Figured adam was very solid in both healing n dmg output
4:50 in that scenario, would it be unreasonable to think if you canceled your self rez youd still get revived by your ult? If so thats a small tip to improve with
@@serthiag7373 Adam dying cancels the ult, so no unfortunately you can't double up on self rez
Idk hes kinda like a hela disguised as a strategist. Got insane burst dmg AND healing

Adam is strong if u can land shots. He just needs some buffs like more mobility, and buff his ult. I play Adam despite being bad at aim cuz I like how easy it is to heal teammates
I actually think rocket raccoon is weakest especially if you destroy all his value with his structures
You should use his charged shot more often
I've been hard maining this hero out eliming and out damaging dps
I really don't feel Adam is weak. The problem right now is just that Mantis and Luna Snow are just broken as fuck so there's no reason to pick anything other than those two. Rocket is probably the weakest unless you have a decent Punisher or Bucky on your team.
Adam needs different moves, i don't see how him being the perfect human plays into his kit
i thought he was not so good first but hes actually nice the only gripe i have is his ultimate its hard to get good use of it not a big fan of rez
Bro is just zen with more steps and rez
Adam? Yeah I see it
As always, breakfast with mL7, but this time I got a new espresso maker, so I get a latte today haha
He is definitely not the weakest
the only reason i dont play adam as much as other sups is he just has no movement and this game is very fast pased you have mfs swinging and flying everywhere i just fell like a stick in the mud with him
