IMO the best way to tackle this discussion (lets assume 6v6 is a bust), is to literally follow how paladins work their max hp in correlation to overwatch is 400-500 for tanks 180-220 for dps and supports in the range of 200-250. The next basic and necessary fix is let an ultimate be an ultimate. The only way to counter ults should be is run away far far far away or counter ults.

6 v 6 but 1 Tank 3 DPS 2 Support or 1 Tank 4 Dps 1 Support sense it's mostly an FPS anyways and people get bad when they need sheilds to play the game lols

[@chuddolomite5]

Spilo's idea for a cinematic with 5 man group lead by Zarya struggling on a mission only to get saved by Rein making a 6v6 team would hit like a truck and save the game by itself if they ever released that with 6v6. Got chills thinking about that...

Please initiate Spilo into the core avengers. He is just unmatched. He knows how low elo players play, has coatched one of the greatest and most unique Ow esports teams to ever be and also doesn't play the game enough to burn out like all the twitch ranked grinders do or did. He is my favorite, most nuanced and feedback orientated creator (at least) in this space and I love the dynamic with my favorite podcast host SVB. Also love Freedos 'no perfect solution, only tradeoffs' line.

[@matthewtelles8619]

Custa's always had an insider persperspective, so he should always be given the benefit of the doubt. I suspect the devs didn't seriously consider returning to 6v6 until the last couple of months, and still the blogpost HEAAVILY favors 5v5 for queue times, engine load (for example, switch can't handle 6v6 currenlty), rebalancing the entire roster, and alienating millions of players that prefer 5v5. Custa was right for what he knew at that time, and I suspect the only reason 6v6 is being discussed by the devs right now is to minimize the amount of players interacting with Marvelwatch. It's a good blogpost, but I thought as a community we were done fully believing OW dev promises given for "several seasons" from now.

[@cesarjairrojasfuentes7440]

I don't hate Freedo but god I don't like how he always trys to invalidate a high ranked players opinion because they are high ranked. I'm plat and I don't want the game to be less skillful because "metal rank players aren't as good as high ranked players and will never be as good so just make the game easier for them", I would rather learn and improve at a game that rewards skill rather than passively giving value based on the role you are on.

[@metazeen]

I wouldn't say that it's just that historically our content creators talk within terms of their own bubble and since they're voices are the loudest their views have stronger staying power on the community despite not being representative at all. Case in point people saying Reinhart is bad whilst he's actually REALLY good for 99.6% of the player base but that 0.4 swears up and down that he's horrible. I've always felt like freedo and spilo are the only content creators that speak for the average player

[@maximum9977]

​@@metazeenfreddo doesnt speak for the average player. He uses it as exuse to defend blizzard. He says that average player loves counterswaping for example.

[@narcodixyadigg781]

@cesarjairrojasfuentes7440 What's less skillful about the game, though? In 5v5, you have more individual carry potential since one less tank isn't blocking you. The fact of the matter is that for a vast majority of the playerbase, the teamwork and coordination isn't there regardless of format. Did you have games in OW1 where your team was synced up? Ofc but it wasn't nearly as consistent as high level play.

[@megamecha100]

​@@narcodixyadigg781 not having a second tank blocking you is a thing that makes it less skillful, you completely cut out any of the skill involved in playing around the two enemy tanks. having more carry potential in the form of run on flank and shoot enemy DPS is just less skillful of a gameplay loop. Not only is teamwork and coordination just a small piece of the puzzle here, but also you don't need the entire team synced for teamwork and coordination to be present, it's as simple as looking at your tanks/other tank and looking at what they are doing and going with their pace, seeing your tank go in and using your cooldown in conjunction, seeing your other tank in voice, you don't have to look at everything so black and white

[@donovan4222]

It’s also funny because he acts like 5v5 caters to casual players, but casual players never cared about queue times because anything below diamond has like 3 minute queues at worst.

SVB I appreciate you very much for hosting these discussions. My only complaint is there is too much ranting going on and not enough back and forth. With this many people together I think it could be worth having a timer like Around the Horn. When Freedo talks for 10min, then Sam responds for 10min, then Flats interrupts to rant about 7v7 for 15min, it feels less like a discussion and more like people taking turns solo podcasting. Personally I also feel like 7v7 discussion in general is counterproductive bc it's just a pipedream when the devs haven't even figured out how to get 12ppl in the OW2 engine. I was disappointed to hear Flats shut down Freedo/Sam's back and forth just to rant about this non-option for 15min.

Freedo saying that overpowered heroes is good for the game is wild, also him trying to say for casual players that tanks were unkillable in 6v6 is straight up FALSE, I’ve always been a metal rank player until the end of 6v6, and tanks were ALWAYS killable if u execute on them, exactly how Samito says it. Even during double shield, in lower ranks u could always kill tanks. Also queue times were NEVER that bad for lower ranks until the late part of the ow1, you know, when they ABANDONED the game with NO new content and u had to PAY to play the game. Of course queue times would be better, theres WAY more players now that the game is free to play, also I think queue times would NOT be bad if we go back to 6v6 like flats is saying because we have so many new and interesting tank designs that would fit really well in 6v6 when redesigned for it, like queen, ramattra, etc. Given that there’s a lot more content, more interesting tank heroes, queue times would not be an issue in 6v6 at all. Also idk why flats is so against 6v6 for queue times yet he’s suggesting 7v7??!! I can see how on paper that could do something but idk. Also 7v7 with 3 dps presents some issues like if there’s 3 dps their damage and impact would have to be nerfed a lot more, how viable would they be then? Would they lose their identities? I would much rather just go back to 6v6, a good format and one that we have more info on. I used to play tank and dps, but obviously tank got gutted in 5v5. I do NOT want to have my main role dps be gutted like tank in 5v5 because of another format change.

[@sqoo5]

He always falls back on either tank synergy was too strong and lower ranked players struggled to kill them, or lower ranked players had terrible tank synergy and couldn't pull it off and have fun. Two opposite ends there but he frequently brings up one or the other.

[@G005E-H0NK]

It is more about the boom and bust. I am also perma metal rank, I was full held on kings row a lot in 6 v 6 due to tank mismatch, never happened in 5v5 as the difference is not as great. He always states that 6v6 had the highest highs and the lowest lows, 5v5 never reaches these high.. but ALSO not the 6v 6 lows. You also seem to be struggling with the role ratios problem that the devs and freedo have highlighted. It wouldn't matter if the entire planet played, if there are still 2-3 times more dps than tank players, it would have long queue times.

[@cheesyburger2944]

good points but flats isnt “so against” 6v6 he said multiple times this podcast he was almost a 6v6er but its queue times thats why he’s against it and 7v7 would bring back tanks synergies and help queues thats his point i would need to think more before i decide if its a good idea

[@P_Bad]

@@cheesyburger2944 7v7 is a horrible idea, remember Jeff Kaplan himself saying that during the early testings of Overwatch other formats besides 6v6 felt wrong/too chaotic, you want unreadable chaos? 7v7 would be like Big Team Battle/Ground War but imagine it on OW maps, awful idea. Flats is just throwing shit ideas at the wall because he cant come up with any other reason to not be on the 6v6 train besides queue times(which is arguable but not a big enough reason because we dont have data on 6v6 for OW2, OW1 was abandoned and they made the Tank Role increasingly bad towards the end) and that his paycheck is in Blizzards hands so he doesnt ever want to bad mouth their decisions or justifications, so he has to tip toe his way around his opinions just to fence sit and not take a side to be safe. Flats makes decent points here and there but he doesnt ever pick a side and decide what he wants, thats why he just lets everyone else talk most of the time.

Back in open Q days, KZbinrs used to say 1/3 of your games are unwinnable , 1/3 unlosable, and it’s what you do with the other 1/3. Remember that? During open Q, when you loaded in, 2/3 of the games were decided in hero select. It was awful. People who remember it otherwise were top 500, kidding themselves, or didn’t really care about winning.

[@lukasg4807]

I mean I only really played ow1 a lot in 2018, and only peaked at 3496, but losing at the hero select was not that big of a deal. Most of the time you always had at least one tank and support, and even when you went out of spawn on 5 or 6 dps it wasn't like you had lost the game because the players who wouldn't swap were good enough to make it work, and it was very rare to be getting stomped and not have some players give in and swap. It was about as common as getting a leaver is in ow today. People were always in voice and wanted to work as a team, and if someone was having a bad game on dps they'd be able to swap off. Role queue removed so much of that incentive to work as a team and try to win. Now it feels like most of the playerbase (me included) just pick the hero they want to play, never talk in voice, and don't even think about synergising with their team.

not open queue, non locking role queue, imo its easier to control your own open queue game than current role lock

[@thelouisjohnson]

As a middle-rank player, my friend group (3 of us) vastly prefers open queue. We (too often) can't trust our teammates in role queue, and we're locked out of doing anything about it and changing tactics (e.g. if we need more damage we can switch to DPS, more heals we can go Healers etc.). If our tank is worse than the enemy tank in role queue, we've practically lost the game 9 times out of 10. Games feel much more within our control and more fun in open, than trying to perform and overcompensate in role queue.

[@CallmeRoth]

Open Q just adds too many variables. To achieve consistency you need to reduce variables. Open Q is a balance and strategy nightmare. Open Q can be QP or arcade only.

Freedo talking about "stats" and "facts" is like how the devs look at win rate/pickrates and think Kiriko isnt broken because her winrate is low yet also neglecting mercy because her win rate is high while being the 3rd most played support. Also at 2:00:00 I dont think freedo fully understood sam's argument. He wasn't saying that reaper will easily destory tanks and/or tanks will just explode because their healthpool is lower, sam was mainly stating that if a tank messes up and is put in a bad spot, he WILL die. Tanks in 6v6 are still arguably better in a 1v1 against most dps, but point is that when they mess up, they get punished. Simple. Tanks in 5v5 can mess up and still get punished, but its harder to do so especially alone. Also, as someone who's said that tanks are unkillable and oppressive in 6v6, its kinda crazy for him to go against that with the comments of reaper 3-4 shotting tanks in 6v6 and also say that gigabuffed tanks is what it has to be for 5v5 to work.

Freedo almost always speaks about things from HIS perspective. How HE felt about things, what HE thinks other players might've feel or think. A big reason why people like Sam do VOD reviews is to ALSO get their perspective in totality. Freedo, Avrl, Jake, they're some of the few people that aren't healthy for the podcast.

If you're on your solo tank and your team doesn't pick heroes that can back you up (as a solo tank) you lose... it's the same shit as before but now instead of it being on the off tank's shoulders, it's not on the rest of the team, so it's arguably worse because now you have even more players who can fuck it up instead of just one.
