Actually, they literally can't, that's why Cauterize exists: it forces players to disengage from battle for nearly 2 seconds in order for your healer to actually do their job.

They're not supposed to heal you WHILE you're fighting, but after your shield is raised and you're briefly out of combat, or when you duck behind cover. That's when the heal is supposed to happen.

But people expect to be fully healed while in the middle of a fight. And that's just not possible.

Seris heals for 1500 per heal

tier 2 Cauterize reduces healing by 50%

Seris now heals you for 750.

If the receiver of your healing is ONLY being shot by a Tyra: 1 grenade and 1 second of shooting is well over 1,000 damage that she does while you are trying to heal for only 750.

1,000+ damage vs 750 healing

Once tier 2 caut comes out, healers literally CANNOT keep you alive during a fight, and that's not really their purpose.

Medics don't treat wounded soldiers while they're still trying to fight.

We need an entire mental shift when it comes to healers, the purpose is to heal teammates when they retreat to safety, not to be expected to keep them alive when the incoming damage vastly outweighs the outgoing healing.

Healing Ying does burst 700 heal, and 400 heal per clone every 1.6sec

With tier 2 caut that's 350 and 200 heal, while a single grenade from Tyra does 700 damage.

550 heal vs 700 damage

Mal'Damba Ripened Gourd: heals 650HP per second Even if he has a double heal gourd plus his regular heal, he STILL can't out-heal anything over 870 damage, which, again, is just a single grenade and 2 bullets from Tyra, or just one shot from Sha'Lin.

Once cauterize is in play, a healer can't keep you alive even against one opponent, much less 2 or more.

You have to learn to position yourself so you can retreat when weak and give your healer opportunity to do their job. That means playing around them, getting in their line of sight if you need a heal.

You can spam "need healing" all you want because guess what? They are healing you, they just can't keep you alive. It's your job to get out of combat if you're going to die, it's their job to heal you as quickly as possible to get you back into the fight, and to give you a little bit of an edge during 1v1s.

It's not their job to keep you alive. Usually when we die, it's our fault for bad positioning, not theirs for lack of skill.

Note: I'm ignoring all the intricate details like items, damage reduction when healing, getting increased healing when ____, as well as any type of self-heal. Those are more unique circumstances, this write up was just related to the generally unfair expectations players have towards healers.

I'd love to hear any thoughts any experienced competitive players may have, this lesson-rant is definitely intended for the casual crowd.
