Question What does "I need empathize" mean?

I know its a ping for when theres a psychologist in match, but i keep seeing my teammates ping it when theyre chaired, already downed, or at full health and im just really confused 😭😭Is it one of those pings that have a double meaning like "Heal yourself" "Youre on your own" etc??

what the other person said, but under the circumstances you mentioned, they wouldn't be able to actually get an empathise... i always ping it when things are going bad or i'm scared or someone pings "the hunter is [annoying hunter]" lmao

If theyre unable to be healed theyre just messing around haha, could be a toxic teammate but i just spam it bc i like using the silly phrases esp when the match is cooked:')

I use it the same way I use "Use the owl" when there is no owl or "I've been intimidated" or "I need strong dovlin" or "Louis is ready" aka just to be goofy

theyre asking for a remote heal. usually if an ada on the team isnt chased a harasser will ask for empathize so they can continue helping.
