Medic teaming.

The last sentence isn't even breaking the rules anyway, I have only seen mods do something when both medics have been healing each other, not when only the one carrying the flag has been healed.

 

I think the passive regeneration and the 6
steak make it very hard to kill a medic with the flag when it has a medic with it, where as heavy is susceptible to pyros. I think a good medic could keep another medic alive for a very long time. Clearly the extent of the abuse is going to be different based on the skill levels of players on both sides, and everyone has different views but this is what I believe is the reason for the rule.

 

There isn't. The other team is just looking for an excuse to get a free cap.

 

if it is vs medic/heavy u can kill the medic since they cant get restored and then the heavy has no means of being healed since the medic is dead so it is easier to kill the heavy.
if its vs medic/medic then the medics just heal eachother constantly and it is really hard to even kill 1 of them

 

Imo banning a playstyle or "tactic" if you will is downright stupid and difficult to keep track off and tell when it's actually being broken and when it's not. If anything just make a rule in MMR that prohibits medics healing each other in any circumstance in a match

 

No, the difference between banning something in competitive and casual ctf is that you're allowed to play however you want in regular ctf, whether it be cheap or whatever such as medic teaming with another medic. Competitive ctf bans doing certain techniques or playstyle, such as playing dwarf, eggspamming, medic teaming.

My point is making it a rule for regular ctf is just completely stupid otherwise for matches it'd be a good rule to add

 

Then clarify yourself in the op lol

 

Medic teaming is not overpowered because the flag carrier is being kept alive. Medic teaming is overpowered because the player keeping the flag carrier alive is being kept alive.

In actual pvp it'd be extremely hard to make sure it was only one way healing, which is why it goes both ways.

It's against the rules under MMR and should be enforced as such. If it isn't being enforced correctly, bring it up to the committee.

 

If I a solo were to try to encounter 2 medics doing the above, it is best you target one and keep them away from one another. This may be a hard thing to do, but their is a cool down and it is what should be used to your advantage. Yes I understand your point and it does suck, but that is just how they planned to play the game.

As for this being against the rules, I don't agree it should. But it should be recommended not to do so.
I don't know..

 

I feel like the rule I mentioned would be a better replacement though.

 

I think medic teaming shouldn't be allowed because in a recovery situation where you need to recover the flag and a decent medic has the flag. he will be immune to pyros trying to recover, blocking making it immune to assassin. If medic teaming becomes allowed then it is also immune to heavies trying to recover because when they smash the medic it gets healed. I know there is a 15 second cool down, but it makes it that much more difficult to recover from (which is already hard enough).
