So I used to main Spy but now I've decided I want to main medic because I lost interest in the TUXEDO TERRORIST. I've tried playing Medic in casual but most of the time I get lost, away from everyone else why everyone is screaming for Medic and I don't make it in time to save time, and once I reach the battlefield I die. Someone please help, I really wanna improve at GERMAN MEDICINE MAN.

Tbh casual isn't even bad practice since you're constantly being attacked.

Play lobbies or, even better, join a team and play scrims.

Play classes like soldier and scout as a way to learn strafing. Spend time on rocket jump and surf servers. Besides that, find as many opportunities as you can to play him in a setting with players that are talented. At the end of the day, dodging spam/airstrafing to safety is a big component to improving at medic.

well, u posted on tftv, but it seems as though you only want to become a good medic in a casual environment. for this, I recommend you learn how to air strafe and dodge things well and you can learn these things by spending time on jump and surf maps. you should also watch ArraySeven, he's a pretty darn good pub medic, as good as they get.

if you do want to become a good medic in a competitive environment, then I recommend (ontop of learning how to airstrafe and dodge) you join a team in ESEA open. it is the fastest way to improve, but if you don't want to commit to a team, I recommend that you play pugs (pick up games). make sure to watch demos of the invite medics so that you can learn from what they do and incorporate it into your own gameplay. you should also watch mister slin, he's a good competitive medic who has a lot of tutorials and guides for newer players on his channel.

for casual, just make sure you're on fov_desired 90 and get a nice hud that's clean to see where your uber is.

for competitive, pug and scrim as much as you like/can and watch demos or get mentored.

the thing that helped me improve was just to play and learn my own playstyle instead of the aforementioned and now that I know how I like to play, I can focus on improving other things that play into it.

be communicative and eager to become better/learn.

This is great advice for movement improvement, in casual or competitive.

Also, get in the habit of not staring at the ground when trying to stay alive and actually look at threats.
For competitive, get into the habit of constantly speaking, and always tell your team your location, your uber percentage, and if you are in a bad situation and what you're doing (i.e. backing up, need support). Also tracking ubers of enemy medics for competitive is pretty useful.

I don't think I can join a team, judging by how horrible I am. And yeah, I am practising how to surf rockets.
