What is wrong with you?
Had a feeling some of my strategy would be off, so I'll try to defend my reasons. I'll refine my strategy as Medic as I play more games, and hear input from experience Medic players.
2. It's IF I can't find a Heavy to cling to. Pyro/Demo/Soldier were possible candidates because they can also deal a lot of damage if kept alive, which means less enemies to worry about. It's also not like I stick to one person ALL the time and ignore everyone else, hence #4.
3. That Ubercharge isn't doing any good just sitting there, and I never hold a charge for more than ~20 seconds because it's extremely shameful to die with an Ubercharge up. I'm not yet confident enough to hold an Ubercharge for too long because I usually don't last longer than about two minutes. If on Offense, Ubering as soon as me and my ally/allies see the enemy will allow whoever I'm with to tear through the opposing team. Again, it's only once I see danger. Heavy is getting shot by several people at once? UBER!
6. I have tried several times to keep a Heavy up when he was being assaulted by 3-4 people at once. It wasn't pretty, he died fast, and me staying there meant a dead Medic as well. Maybe I'm being overly cautious, because I know if I run I can always return to heal another ally. Again, I only ran if I clearly saw a clear disadvantage, like being outnumbered 3:1~4:1 (minus me of course).
