We'll start with something Basic, Like - Who to heal? , Who to trust? , Who requires the most Healing? Who do you want to stay alive the most time, What happens if.. situations.


Who to heal?

1. As a medic you want to heal DPS classes, such as Soldier, Demo, or Pyro.
always try to keep them alive.
2. Heavy is a Tank class, always try to overheal Heavies, and Heal them, they will be useful in some situations.
3. Support roles, such as Sniper and Spy, (and Scout) aren't your priority, but Heal them when they're low, and overheal when there's nobody else to heal.
3. Engineer, You can always overheal them, since Engi is important in both Defense and Attack stages, since it can put down sentries (perfect area deny), Teleports, or Dispensers. And always remember to heal them.
4. Heal scout only if he's low / he spawned and is about to go behind the enemy, or you don't really have anyone else to heal. As medic, you don't want to pocket Scout. (sorry scout mains ;-;)
5. ALWAYS Remember to keep medic's alive! 1 medic alive = more chances to succed.

Okay, now, another important point

Who to trust? (a.k.a. Who will defend you, where to run when enemy is approaching)

1. as you know or not, Heavy is a Defense class, he is pretty good at defending, always run behind Heavies, so it's harder to shoot you.
2. Soldiers and Pyro's are pretty good Defenders too, Pyro can airblast, and nobody will be stupid enough to run into soldier with medic, lmao
3. Engineer, if your team is down, and you need to run away already, Go to the place where Friendly sentry can see you, and hide somewhere, Behind cover, In a Dispenser, anywhere.
4. Scout and support classes won't help you. just run.
5. Medic's. You can always use ubercharge and do the Medic Combo, but only if you're both skilled enough.
6. if Demoman is skilled enough to hit pipes, you're safed.
7. (bonus) Demoknight can be a good defender, same as fat scout, or any other subclass (except for the Revolver Shpee)

The next point here is... Who requires the Most healing!

Well, All wounded teammates are your priority here, just heal the classes that are wounded. and that helps your team somehow, for example, Medic's, Engi's, Heavies.

Who do you want to stay alive the most.

1. Heavies
2.DPS classes (pyro, soldier, Demo)
3. Able to heal classes (medic's, engies, etc.)
4. Rest. (Sniper, Spy..)
5. scoot.

What happens if..

1.If your teammate blames you for something that he failed to do, Ignore him, it's not your fault that he didn't hit enemy with rocket/pipe/b00lets/anything
2. if you're not sure if you should use uber, or not, consider thinking about future, and what will happen if i will, or not, It's always better to use it a bit too early, than die instantly and not pop uber.

Setup time

-During setup, you have time to Charge Ubercharge. Always do it.
-Try to overheal EVERYONE before the doors open.

Ubersaw - High Risk, High reward. Risky weapon, for more skilled Medic's.

Amputator - Trading Damage for Healing, Good weapon for being more support Medic

Vita-saw - For thinking medic's, such as Ubersaw, giving you max 60% of uber when dying, (if you managed to kill anyone), Risky, but useful sometimes

Bone Saw - Why do you even use it?

Solemn Vow - Can be useful in very stricted situations. But mostly used by F2P's or in Rankings.

Stock - no downsides, no upsides, It's just good

Kritzkrieg - Trading Invincibillity for Crits. Good deal if you are skilled, but if the other team has stock or a sentry, better go with stock. (This is a good choice for defense if you have a teammate who knows who to kill, just be sure than the enemy team does not have a sentry or a medic with stock ready to charge.)

Quick-Fix - Downside is the -50% overheal, the uber makes you and the one you are healing invulnerable to pushback effects (Airblast, rockets...) and makes you heal a lot faster, so you can be killed with a random crit while Ubered.. High risk, High reward. +10% ubercharge rate increased.

Vaccinator - If you want to have Ubercharges ready in the blink of an eye and then spam them to push forward, this is a weapon for you, Ubercharge doesn't make you undestroyable, you might die. You can use more than one type of resistance at once when ubered.

Stock - It's just... weird... use anything but stock if you can. (Better choice than Blutsauger if you don't know how to use it well)

Blutsauger - It's good for battle medic's. but you can die from after-burn. High risk.. and some reward.

Crusader's Crossbow - Trades DPS, for Heals. Very good in some situations, yet deals more DPS than stock so.. the best choice for medic.

Overdose - Good for Medic's that doesn't really want to die with uber. Trades DPS for movement, Situational, sometimes good

Just don't. please.

Always try to alert your teammates about doing a Uber Push, Coordinated pushes are the best for you.

If you can talk with your teammates, always try to send 1-4 people to fight with Enemy, just so they will think: "Hah they're not planning anything, pfft, we'll win.". As long as they'll be so sure about victory, they are easy pray for you and your ubered partner.

You can uber more than one teammate at the same time, clicking through them, More teammates alive = more gunz to shoot. (This makes de uber drain faster, so use it when you see something that needs more people to be protected, like a crit rocket. Also when two teammates push at once and one is about to be killed.)

Never be a pocket. it's bad.
You can be pocket, but atleast Heal your other teammates when your pocket is at full HP.

If the player you are healing did not take damage in the last 10 seconds, your healing rate for that player will be increasing until reaching 72 healing per second (15 seconds after being damaged). Use this to heal players who have been waiting x3 times faster.
Note for players not playing medic: If you see a medic that looks experienced healing someone that is taking damage and you are at his side screaming MEDIC!, please wait, he will probably heal you later using this mechanic(If there is a dispenser, use it).

Try to get the medigun shield as fast as possible, is one of the best things that you can get on MVM as a medic.

Always use Kritzkrieg on MVM. You have your super shield to protect your teammates.

in MVM, you can also use canteens and share it with your teammates, with Critz or ubers.. so consider that too.

Try not to, you should only fight when there is no way to escape.

If you see someone who tries to kill you because he thinks you don't know how much HP he has and he is actually very low AND you know it FOR SURE that he is at low HP, try to do like you are running away and then in a corner, hit him with your melee (This works 70% of the time, 90% if you are sure he has less than 65 HP).

it's impossible, You can always use amputator. if you want to.

Minimer - Fellow Medic main that wanted to show me how it feels to be medic main
SeyFish - Helped me becoming a medic main, and still helps lmao
Termhardt - yes.
ZERO - he knows why ;D
