I've been spending quite a lot of time playing as Lifeline recently and I've developed quite an affinity for her. What's not to love? As a Combat Medic, she has a unique role that combines supportive abilities with a potential for great offensive play. It's a blend of responsibility and adrenaline that makes every match exciting.
But what strikes me most about Lifeline is how varied her playstyles can be, and I've been wondering how the rest of the community likes to play her.
For me, I personally enjoy the balance between being a support character and being able to stand my ground in a firefight. I tend to hang slightly back from the thick of the action, providing covering fire and watching out for teammates' health...but I'm actively fighting as well. How about you? What's your preferred way of playing Lifeline, and why?
- Are you the type to hang back, only entering the fray when necessary to provide healing and revives?
- Or are you an aggressive healer, constantly on the move and using the DOC Heal Drone to keep everyone topped up while also getting your hands dirty?
- How do you best utilize her abilities for the maximum benefit of your team?
- What's your approach in different scenarios, like when you're in the middle of the ring, or during the final few squads?
I would love to hear your strategies, and particularly, how you manage to balance the demand for healing and supporting your squad while also maintaining offensive pressure on the enemy. Please share your insights, tips, and tricks on playing Lifeline!
