What if your main is battle medic

In all seriousness though, since it is a team game, you can't put all the blame on one sniper for when the team has 5 snipers. Usually you can solve things through chat but if you say "Hey can one of you snipers go medic", chances are all 5 will say to themselves "Nah I'm doing well, some other guy will do it." Hopefully you have nicer teammates, but, y'know, pub servers, you never know what sort of grab bag of players you'll get.

Now, if you are one of those snipers who actually is terrible at medic, easy solution is to say so. Or switch to some other class that isn't medic but might still be useful, maybe Engy or something, just to lower the number of snipers. "Sorry, I'm terrible at medic, but I'll switch to something else. Can one of you guys go medic? You're probably much better than me at it"

Something to that effect. Also implying that teammates are good at what they're doing helps convince them usually.

lets be clear here though

being bad at medic is not because of the class, it's due to inexperience

people can be bad at demoman, or sniper, or soldier, even with experience

if you're bad at medic you need to play more medic because the only reason is you're not playing it enough, it's that easy of a class
knowing when to pop uber isn't even a hard thing (hint: when you're being shot at) and then everything else can be solved by doing your job as medic and making sure everyone is at full health. this is even easier if you turn on the medic autocall, so you can tell when anyone on your whole team is under par.

Yeah I think I got the 10000 health healed in one life achievement the first or second time I played medic. Playing medic in competitive is a whole different beast though.

Step one to not getting killed as a medic: jump and run around like a motherfucker. Never stay still, ever.

I've actually played low-level 6v6 matches as medic, it was an interesting experience.

i wouldn't mind playing a few low-level 6v6 matches sometime but i have no idea how to get into that

i just feel like the game i want to be playing more often is competitive TF2, but i'm not good enough for that yet so i have to trudge through this game of 12v12 that is really 2v2 with 20 snipers to get any experience

I had a group of friends and we had matches against other groups we knew as well as the occasional lobby. Can't remember the name of the site we used though.

Start out with doing Highlander lobbies I'd say, I haven't tried to get into competitive myself but I hear that's a good starting point for any one.
