Each rank plays differently and has different unwritten rules. Like everything else in Overwatch 2, it's situational. For example, supports in higher ranks are able to heal less and use the range of their kits more because they know their teammates are able to survive on their own longer. Support heroes in lower ranks need to focus on healing more because their team will be dying a lot and still learning important things like positioning. Be aware of what ELO (rank) you are in and how that may limit you. You may be under or over-performing. A support in Bronze rank may be over-performing by trying to use damage or their other abilities instead of focusing heals on their less-skilled team members.
