Understanding DPS is crucial for team composition and strategy. While the term technically measures damage output per second, it's commonly used to describe damage-dealing roles or characters in general. To improve your team's chances of winning, you may need to either maximize your damage output or switch roles to allow a more skilled DPS player to take over.
