Invisible Girl is Not a Healer

[Shamalamadingdang]

She's a strategist. Just had a game where people who haven't even tried her out were complaining to me about not doing enough healing. Her kit is extremely versatile. trapping, shielding, cloaking, pushing and pulling enemies, and doing nasty DPS are all options with her. Her invisibility almost begs you to do some tricky positioning and make plays. She's not Mantis or Adam Warlock. Before you start spitting healing numbers at an Invisible Girl, check their KO's, deaths, and Assists. If they have low healing but they have 15 KO's, 10 Assists, and 0 deaths, shut up.

WHAT IS THIS LOGIC LMFAO

This is simplistic and shows why healing totals are so arbitrary. What if the 5k healer was a mantis that had 4 dps and only one tank (less overall hp), made a sweaty clutch mlb play to save the dying tank in the final seconds and put his attacker to sleep to seal the win?

I'm talking about the average game, 4 DPS and 1 tank shouldn't be the average game, also matter of fact because she is the only healer she would have tons of heals, if a game lasts 10 minutes and she only does 5k that's a ♥♥♥♥ healer no offense, I get the example you tried to give

Their original example was 100k healing tho

You should definitely always also be healing. It's fine to do damage or get kills on a strategist, but the true power of the class is that they can do both at the same time.

Also, it's important to recognise when something isn't working. If we had an IW player who had like 12 solo kills and only 5000 healing but we stomped the team easily, sure, I'll take it. The problem is that that same player will have a bunch of games where the team defends against it better and they go like 3-9 with 5000 healing, which is throwing. In general, being adaptable and having situational awareness is one of the most important things in this game on any role. You have to recognize what action you can do at any given time that gives your team the most value, which may even be to swap to a different character in some situations.

She's not a girl, she's a woman.

But you're taking up a heal slot. If you're doing damage, teammates who are playing characters that do more damage are not being healed and enabled to do the damage it takes to win a game. Her invisibility is for escape, not for "making plays." Please just play DPS

Im an IW main, and i hit some high heals, IMHO she more kitted to flanking and area Control. Her Ultimate is nice for emergency group heals, and ive noticed i get good heals when my teammates line up or group together. Just wish her Projectiles had tracking..its a pain in the butt trying to heal a spider man, iron man, storm, venom. STOP MOVING DAMIT! lol. Dont mind the range, but damn i can get more healing out as C/D the IW. I use IW mostly if theres a C/D or jeff on the team, so i act more as back up heals. Most the time im trying to keep people off the Capture point or being a D### and pulling them off it by Ding Dong Dashing.

If you're maining IW you probably already know this, but still thought I'd say just in case it helps you or other people that want to play IW: in my experience the best way to heal people like Spiderman, Iron Man, Storm etc. is to spam-click your Shield on them. It heals 50 HP/s and has no cooldown, so you can constantly spam it to have it follow them and heal them. It's easier if they know about this and hold still or hide around it for just a moment to let it heal them to full, but spam-clicking it will get them healed even if they insist on continually flying around.

This is wrong if you spam the shield aka recast it over and over it heals X (think it's fifty) amount including a heal over time. Each time you cast it it heals 50. Which make her heals crazy powerful.

That's her burst heal.

So you should be able to take someone to full after casting it 3-5 times. This is whole reason why it breaks cause it's too powerful for burst healing.

I'm pretty sure she's one of higher burst heals too.

Most people just drop it and forget it cause they don't know how to play her.

Looking at the comments it appears no one knows her kit at all.

hahahahahahahahaha. hjahahahahahahahahahaha. HA.

[rjsmith86]

usually if a team complains about healing numbers it's because they are dying a lot, losing the overall match and could use the heals.....if you find your team isn't doing much then try focusing on keeping them alive more as one of the characters capable of doing so. That's team work, keeping tabs on KO's as a strategist is a very bad take and assists comes with the role.

But you lost the game because everyone thought you were going to heal them when you chose a character that can heal. If you're going around killing people instead of healing, it's your fault you lost the match. If you want to kill people, pick a dps instead.

supports are not heal bots

if you think she is a bad healer, than you don't understand why the meta of the game is the way it is. She is a powerful healer with a pretty strong alt, same as luna, or cloak. Mantis also has a pretty good ult and loki since he can copy another healer's ult. These ults win fights, and being able to have that much healing to spam out the ult/counter enemies is why they are the favorites.

Everything you mention sounds like low elo stuff about people not utilizing their characters correctly. I am diamond and have played her, i can easily keep up with luna (24k healing in 10 min comp, same as invisible women on my stats.)

Invisible Gal is not a Healer but she is quite good at healing my heart. 💙🤍🖤

Strategists are the healers in this game

[PVT.Blueberry]
