The Best Gifts for your Support Player this Holiday Season

I Can’t Out-Heal Stupidity – T-shirt – $22.60

The most bitterly repeated mantra of the support community is surely “I can’t out-heal stupidity”. Every healer has dealt with teammates who feed then blame supports for not being miracle workers. While this shirt is for Final Fantasy XIV, you can find a similar shirt for any game. Find it here.

Cosmetics – Variable

Buy your healer a skin or cosmetic. Just do it. I’ve yet to meet a healer who doesn’t like a little flair for their character, and healers in games have some of the best cosmetics available.

Health Pack Water Bottle – $34.70

If you’ve played Overwatch, you’ve likely seen the iconic Health Packs scattered across maps. Let your healer get their own heals with this water bottle! You can find similar products for almost all games. Find it here.

Personalized Gamertag Stand – $53.64

One of the best gaming related presents I’ve ever received was a custom gamertag light sign. But you can take it one step further and have one made that not only reflects the support player’s gamer tag, but has a practical function as a headphone stand. The colors are changeable and you can definitely find one for every game out there. Find a League of Legends one here.

Healer Beanie – $16.00

If your support friend or loved one is a healer but doesn’t like super obvious gaming merch, here’s a great option. This beanie has the universal healing symbol and comes in a myriad of colors. It’s a great way to rep the role while keeping your ears warm. Find it here. Fun fact, there’s one for DPS and tanks too!

Stickers – Variable

A great option that’s fairly low cost is to buy your healer sticks. Ideally half a dozen or more. Redbubble has a surprising amount of variety, allowing you to select ones that best match your support player’s vibes. Some have a fantastic aesthetic, some are snarky, others are funny. Find them here.

Handmade Coupon Book – Free

Gifts from the heart and made by hand are worth ten times as much as any gift you can snag from a big box digital store. Make your healer a coupon book and let them redeem them. Here’s a few ideas for it:

  • I promise not to run in alone for 1 game
  • I promise not to spam ‘I need healing’
  • I promise to peel if you get dived

Your support player will appreciate it!
