I've been playing dread D and hornz dread wringer to practice a support role lately. Here are some things I've noticed:

1. If I ouch ping, turn around. I ping for a reason. I played a game where I got a triple THREE times and was sharked out by the last remaining player, which was a mint decav. My teammates weren't even facing the right direction all 3 times, so we got instantly wiped out.
2. If we have map control and you are playing a blaster, roller, or some other slaying weapon, MOVE UP. You are completely useless if you're not fighting and getting the picks (or even just trade) that we need. If you want to play passively and farm specials, play bow or jet.
3. If we are winning in tower control, rainmaker, or clams, DO NOT rush in and suicide push at the last second. I don't even understand the logic behind this. Why give them overtime? Literally just camp anywhere in mid and shark out the opponents. Stop snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
4. Please stop pushing when we are at a disadvantage. There's conveniently placed information at the top of your screen that lets you see how many people are alive. If we have 2 alive and the enemy team has 4, just farm special and prepare for a counterattack. So many games end when we go two down and my last remaining teammate rushes in like a braindead salmonid, and now I'm facing 4 enemy teammates, one of which is a vblaster with aura.
5. Similarly, if the enemy team is using tristrikes, crab, and has a bubble set up on tower, do NOT rush in and die. Literally just wait a few seconds and survive, then counterattack with your own special. Why would you rush at the enemy when they have so much advantage?
6. Don't play weapons in X that you suck at. I cannot count the number of times I hit an enemy with 90 damage and my teammate still loses the fight or trades. If you're fighting sloshing machine (a weapon that takes over half a second to shoot once) with n-zap and you can't hit literally one shot out of the 12 shots you shoot per second, get off the game or switch to brush.

Edit: one more

1. If we are losing, and the match is almost over, now is the time to make a hero play. Why do you rush into 1v3s and 1v2s the whole game, but when we're losing and time is running out, you stop doing it and play insanely passively? Are we trying to lose?
