Heavy in a Highlander Team (or How to be a Heavy Main)

Asking Some Questions to Yourself

When a Medic heals a Scout , his movement speed will match the Scout's speed. The Scout cannot take on multiple enemies and unable to receive heavy damages. The best situation is that the Medic heals the Scout, so that both players can get out from the fight. The Scout is usually paired with the Soldier to form the Flank Combo.

The weaknesses of the Demoman: getting too close to the enemies, unable to tank enough big damages, and it does take times for his explosives to be reloaded.

in a calm specific way

NEVER REPEAT THE SAME CALLS OVER AND OVER AGAIN!

What to Say What NOT to Say/Yell Spy on Combo/China SPY!/SPY BEHIND US! Sniper on China/Ramp/Bat SNIPER IS WATCHING ON US! They Übered! Get back! RUN AWAY! THEY ARE ÜBERED! Über/Pop on me! ÜBER! ÜBER! ÜBER!/POP! POP! POP! Get on point! GET ON POINT RIGHT NOW!

The Heavy exists because he can soak incoming damages and shoot at the enemies with his minigun at the same time.The winner to be the Medic's bodyguard is...The Heavy is the glue of the combo and your team, so the team won't fall apart. Also, he can get rid off unwanted enemies who are near the Combo.The Medic is the main healing class of the team who keep his teammates healthy and be overhealed. Also, the Medic is a powerful class to Übercharge his heal target when his medi gun is at 100%. Without him during the fight in a round, your team would be really relied on healthpacks around the map, your Engineer's dispenser, their weapons which allow them to be self-healed passively or by damaging with them, and your sandviches.So, protect the Medic from any sort of danger at all cost!The Medic probably respawns and is coming back into the battle to heal up you and other teammates. Do not expect that the Medic gives you all the heals, because he has to heal up other teammates as well. Do not expect that the Medic gives you all the Übers, because an Übered Demoman is a better tactic to wipe out the opposing team with explosives. The Heavyfollow the Medic and the Combo, not the Medic follows the Heavy unless it is important to do so in order to win a fight.There is, butto be a better Heavy main which it is based on your play style and thinking.
