If you're going to do it you'd better be 100% sure you're doing it right, or it's going to be received poorly. Also, it's impossible to optimize around Rescue because you don't know when it's coming and you can't mitigate it. That's what makes Healers a bigger threat than normal AI enemies.

    As for providing more engagement for Healers, what can I say... Sorry Healing is boring but Rescue isn't a good solution. It's an obnoxious hindrance that barely works even in the rare situations where it could be useful; the vast majority of healers don't bother with it, I'm guessing the people here defending it haven't actually used it in weeks.

    As for the ability being godlike, I've already admitted it's a godlike troll button. The fact that it's a way to mess with people constantly without incriminating yourself in chat makes it bulletproof. If I were someone who hated people and only really played this game to mess with them I would DEFINITELY main a Healer.

    Rescue is great in E12S sometimes, get that one person in the titan stack on-time, or else you, the healer dies. Yeah try to defend that, casual.
    Not scared necessarily, just a little annoyed that certain poorly conceived abilities make my teammates obstacles when they should be allies.

    Like I said it's nothing personal, I'm just stating facts. Rescue puts me at odds with my team; with the Healer anyways. A toggle would fix that. World of Warcraft added a toggle for that exact reason, so why not do it here to?
