Tank is never rewarding in most games. At least not as much as support or dps. For them there is the instant feedback of healing, damage, or kills. Most of the time if you do super well as a tank, you just succeed. That's the whole point of a good Frontline. The best ones make it impossible for the enemy team to get anything done. In any game. So it sounds like you're just playing the wrong role.

You can do everything perfect as a tank but having a bad dps makes it nearly impossible to win. Tank use to be rewarding because your plays alone can win the match but with the new dps passive you get melted almost instantly at times.

@KPR56 I think Certain tanks are just poorly designed. Not that tank as a whole is weak or unrewarding. Certain tanks like sigma, JQ, and Ball. Can do just fine, and they are very difficult to cheese when they are in the hands of players that know how to use them. Even with the dps passive. I hate say it but tanks like hog, rein, mauga. Etc. (Even orisa/dva sometimes) Just aren't that useful in the tank role. Tanks need to be able to manage a bunch of stuff at the same time. Roadhog JUST deals damage. Reinhardt JUST deals damage, or JUST blocks damage. How can the role feel rewarding if only like half of the role can do what the role is supposed to do lol. That's not an issue with the game. Blizzard just keeps making shit tanks.

stg, having a dps tell me to push when the enemy team got a pick and ill get shredded in .5 picoseconds makes me wanna jump off a cliff. Like if you want me to push then shoot something other than the enemy tank farming damage stat

Yea it's annoying to have some brain dead dps sometimes so then you get rolled by all the damage being pumped out while yours is hiding behind support.

As a wrecking ball main, the amount of hate i recieve for other people playing badly is insane. The other day i got blamed because "our dps cant position without a shield"

As a ball main as well, I feel that. Nothing worse than stagnant dps when we're out here working 1000% harder than everyone else
@KPR565 ай бұрын
Honestly all they have to do is push when you're pushing or when you get an elim. If it's tank or support elim then it's a huge team advantage & dps should easily be able to follow up

Rein is probably the only iffy choice but you can definitely make it work & roadhog is still really good even if people are trying to counter him. If you play around cover good you will win no doubt.

You're missing the point. As a tank player, you have very little impact towards the outcome. You don't provide nearly as much value as the other roles. You're essentially held hostage by your teammates on dps/support that provide a lot more value. If your dps are trash, you just auto lose. At least in OW1, with a second tank, you had the ability to carry games, regardless of your DPS or not.

People are still not the rank they were suppose to be so you might get paired up against people that could have been masters or higher last season, I had to play a lot of games to get to diamond 1 since I would get a lot of negative modifiers when I lose. Then, I would get expected every other game with no win streak until after the 7th win in a row.
