Is there any hero that you feel is truly useless or a “throw” to pick?

Hi.

I always find it funny how teams expect their dps to solo pharmercy, depending the map this can be near impossible... and then bitch and troll the shit out of them when they are helpless to do anything, even though they are landing almost every shot.

Yeah, I never said that I expected anyone to solo pharah/mercy. Pretty sure I never "bitched and trolled" anyone, either. I said I that I had 2 dps that implied that there was nothing they could do about them.

Also if you can't 3 tap a Mercy that's flying around in the open during light combat phase, you should consider retiring Ana as you won't be able to get too far in ranks.

Oh, okay so it's bad to suggest that a DPS should go hitscan to fight pharah/mercy because they'll be helpless despite landing nearly every shot, but I'm a bad Ana because I couldn't solo them? Lol what?

Ana has to be the hardest support to do well on, so much multi task, big brain decision making along with dps grade aim and reaction time, tacked onto flawless positioning from no mobility. An argument can be made for Bap and Kiriko, but personally find them both a step down in difficulty at high ranks.

Thanks for the tips, but as I mentioned above, I'm a DPS main. I just happened to be Ana that night due to our group's preferences.

Anyway, I didn't ask. My comment was a simple anecdote about a couple of randoms that said something silly. I don't care how you frame it - suggesting that "there's nothing I can do" to deal with pharah/mercy as a DPS player is silly. Coming at me with a bunch of out-of-context assumptions doesn't change that.
