Please for the love of god, help out your supports.

There is more than one reason why I think people don't like playing healer, and this hurts the game design. This is an opinion post.

DPS has a cyborg ninja with a huge sword, a man with a MASSIVE fist, a rat that launches grenades and blows everything up. Tanks have a literal melting beam character who's gun weighs more than McCree, a huge fat dude with a hook chain and shotgun that launches garbage, and a hamster that smashes into enemies in a ridiculous ball form.

I'll be honest, healers, in my opinion, just aren't all that interesting, and this might be hurting the game from a competitive standpoint, but it's also just my opinion.

The role of healing is fun too, I dig it, but I don't like ANY of the healing characters that exist, I'll be honest. They're all boring humanoids, I want a lizard creature that shoots acid/poisons while also pumping out meds, I want a fast robot that can dash around and heal allies who is extremely hard to kill. I just want something more from the healers, aesthetically. I just find all of their designs so boring.

Hopefully the next hero added is a healer, because the queue times for role queue dps are absurd. And hopefully the new healer will have an interesting design.
