[@mrlunar62]

U understand that a phara pocketed by a mercy, a widow, and the rein all shot him at the same time? If only as Winston flats wouldn’t just make probably the worst dives in history, maybe then he’d live longer. Tanks can tank, but tank mains just want tanks to be immortals

[@Phobie_2000]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@mrlunar62 no, we want to be able to push in, make space, and gets kills without getting a one way ticket back to spawn. Having to play as safe as possible and hug corners for an entire game sucks ass.

[@GeniuslyJynxxD]

​@@Phobie_2000I agree. I just want to be able to get kills and help my teammates push forward - not have my healthbar be made out of paper mache or something. I'm a TANK. I should be able to TANK damage, not get melted like a knife through butter in 2 widow headshots or a pharah + mercy combo. We as tanks should be able to actually DO something, not just play spawn simulator cause the other tank sometimes mindlessly shoots us until we have no hp.

I love those games where everyone including support is shooting at tank and then they have an Ana who sleep darts you and evaporate you in 1 second. Then your team that can’t return fire an take any pressure off you at all just goes “gg tank diff”. Amazing experience

[@mrlunar62]

Tbf flats dove into possibly the worst positions consecutively. He moans a lot about tank being shit despite the fact that the enemy dva on that shambali (butchered the name) was utterly carrying their team and has insane impact

[@genzen6129]

Yeah it was crazy seeing him dive at the 7:00 minute mark into a cass plus Zen and get absolutely rolled. What I don’t understand about one tricks is how they must somehow enjoy getting their asses clapped mega hard because they won’t switch even after they start feeding.

[@urnansflipflop7894]

​@@genzen6129 flats isn't a one trick but I am and I enjoy it because playing my character (rein for me) outweighs how unfun some games can be, basically the highs are really high and the lows are really low but the highs are worth it for me to keep one tricking

man this video encapsulates everything wrong with 5v5, average tank gameplay, widow dominating the game, nothing fucking dying, counterswapping, like how do you even defend this format at this point without bringing up the queue time argument, none of these issues are fixable in this format the devs have had two whole years to do it and they only made it worse

[@HollowIchigo-hd1pu]

I agree, 5v5 sucks. Some tanks even feel designed as if they were meant for 6v6 like Queen. While they are at it, they should revert Doomfist back to DPS, he doesn't fit the tank role at all!

[@indecisivewolf5620]

This is exactly my thoughts on playing tank in OW2. It's an excruciating experience. When you're playing tank well (typically means just outplaying the other tank) the game is still fun. But if the enemy tank is even slightly above your skill level, you're going to have an awful time and most likely just get rolled. Tank causes my anxiety to skyrocket and is way too stressful in OW2. I barely play the game anymore but sometimes I get the itch to play and I just stick to DPS or support at this point.

[@benchii7867]

even if you're more skilled than enemy tank it doesn’t matter, they would just counter swap and you’re dead. What’re are you gonna do when there’s a Zarya lifeweaver combo with bastion all focusing you down and your teammates aren’t popping off

[@LukeRosdahl]

But if you play dps or support and get a bad tank, same experience, except you're not losing because you're getting diffed, you're losing because a single teammate is getting diffed and that feels worse. Every single game boils down to who has the better tank, the lone exception being if there's a widow popping off.

[@TheRageddavid]

It’s why playing ball gives you a break from being battered by every cooldown, playing rein is horrific

[@musicxxa6678]

even if you diff the enemy tank they can just pick orisa or some other braindead hero to remove your agency and any interaction you have and equalize the skill diff. you will probably still win but it will be so unfun it doesnt matter you win or lose at that point.

[@crab264]

Every queue can be painful but Tanks get it the worst: Supports may have games where they’re playing Dead by Daylight. But at least they get to play the game and not get stuffed by five damage sources at the same time consistently. Not to mention how many fight winning abilities/ultimates they have in their back pocket. DPS might need to have good games every game if they want to climb upwards. But at least they can get a kill, make consistent plays, and/or play Widow/Phara and ruin the enemy team’s fun. But Tanks? They either stomp or get stomped the entire match with no in between. With most of their value being a thick punching bag and occasional damage dealer. It is a never ending barrage of punishment and it’s often a thankless position to be in. Genuinely a miserable experience and why I don’t take Ranked seriously anymore.

Did you know that there are non-tank players that say they are tired of "raid boss" tanks 1v2ing them and a teammate? I thought it was wild that people were saying this.

Players : wanting massive changes, asking for widow nerfs, dps nerfs 1 shots. Devs : Lets buff widow, mauga, ball and doom. This is fine. GOD i hope they nerf mauga, ball AND MOST OF ALL WIDOW. So sick of widow every game. Taking out 2-4 of my team before you can even try and play the game. The people who say "JuSt DiVe HeR" have clearly never faced a widow who isnt below gold. She is the only hero who can shut down half the map, force BOTH teams to completely alter and change how they play, 1 shot most of the roster before you can even try to get to her. Her whole design is just flawed for this type of game and unless she gets a massive range nerf or a massive LoS indicator for everyone she will ALWAYS be a problem in 5v5. But gotta sell those skins dontcha blizzard?...

I logged on for the first time in a year since uninstalling overwatch today. My last 4 games before I uninstalled where filled with people crashing the game, cheaters and/or ran into server problems that overwatch themselves even said was going on. Throughout that time, EVEN THOUGH I WAS UNFAIRLY SUSPENDED AND HAD TO APPEAL FOR A BAN, I waited through my suspensions and everything good and dandy. My last game which was sometime in March had a cheater that was blatantly cheating report my whole team when we rolled him because he sucked. I reinstalled today to check out what's new, qued up for a comp match to shake off the rust and literally mid fucking que got hit with a 20 hour ranked suspension and a ban warning. Can't play ranked, shadow banned in quick play (played 3 games and got lobbies with cheating so obvious I almost thought I couldn't believe it). How do I fix this? I went everywhere, on every platform known to man, went through all the supports everything. You're literally the only youtuber I know that helps people for the most part. What do I do man all the money I spent on OW1 and the very little I put in OW2 is about to be flushed down the drain all the rare skins that you can't get again and my whooping 14k hours (OW and OW2 together combined) gone. I wasn't mad when they kept me at silver rank by putting me in shitty ques. I wasn't mad when they made all the new content locked behind a paywall. I just had a lot of effort in the game and I'm watching it all go down the drain. All because of a fucking cheater reporting me. The irony.

I have fun playing tank in comp open q, there you can switch if its bad, it can still be bad but at least you have some agency, the solution might be 3 tanks and 2 supports but i had good match with 5 supports too. Its very random, there are more one sided matches, however there are matches where you can actually have fun even with tank. In general when playing 5v5 it feels competitive is closer to the old 6v6 quick play matches in terms of chaos, one sided matches and lack of teamwork (you often feel that its useless to wait for combo in the chaos, just use ult early). Ofc this experience is around plat level so it may not apply at all on GM level, but that is where most of the players are which means that is the average OW2 experience. BTW the majority of friends refuse to play comp at all so i play comp only either solo or with the remaining 1 or 2 friends, that is why people in quick play expect others to play more seriously and not throw, because they don't play comp any more.

[@BrowniePunch]

Been here since the back in 2015 last beta. And after role lock was introduced I played **exclusively** tank. I don't think it's perfect, by any stretch! but picking one of 9 snipers/adjacent, Mauga's right click, , Rat man, or even Venture puts me to sleep after 3 games, and as a support I've seen too many DPS stand in spawn because I opted to heal the other guy or the tank in a skirmish instead of them standing on what might as well be another map there with Lucio Barrier at 289 health. I don't have agency or have it taken away. So as DPS I just run around begging for heals, dump ass into the tank and ult and everything dies because no thought has been put into any DPS ults They all operate the same baring Echo. Tank feels so much more engaging since I have to prioritize lighting up the enemy team to figure out where the pressure is going to go, Sit on their backline if my thumb-sucking DPS want to turn on their monitor at any point, or hold back the enemy tank from taking more space. It's not ideal, but the giant paper dolls from of 6v6 were trash and had to rely on barriers and ult abuse to get anything done. Tanks should feel like tanks instead of shittier reaper, shittiest soldier, or an even shittier winton, OW2 actually makes tanks feel more like tanks. They still blow up like balloons because DPS power creep happened over and over again for years and god forbid tanks have a time to rampage for longer than a week. but Metalysis was doing gods work and looked like he was having a blast with those charges and shatters. You can hate tank now, that's fine. But 6v6 just alienates people who want to play a tank and forces them to play giant DPS. It's time to take off the rose-tinted glasses, Flats.

Maybe i'm the only one who say this, but one thing that the classic is more enjoyable than tank in 5v5 is the projectiles size buff in season 9 could be the problem I think. Before season 9 your playstyle was much flexible in position and repositioning with much freedom of around the space. But after season 9 i feel like tanks are being hitten all the time and some dive are getting hitted with soo much more frequency. And if we combine some dmg buff to all the hero after season 9 plus, the gigantic projectile sizes and dps passive we obtain the dlc "The Nighmare of tank". I personally think the projetile size must return like before season 9 for all heroes and maybe some exception with only a half of the nerf for some heroes

I even saw someone on twitter drop from masters 2 to plat 1. really hoping S14 can shake up the meta, this is the worst the game has ever been in...

Man I loved the last Drive event because I was on a winning streak and knocked it out fairly early. This time around? I want to die

[@Amadeuszmaster]

I just gave up. 1 win 2 losses, 1 win 3 losses, and so on. Played for 4 hours yesterday (I usually play 30-40min daily). I found a cool group of people and we continued to loose the next 5 games... I'm not even mad. I'm just sad.

I was failing on supp, couldn't get anywhere on drive so I swapped to my seldom played dps role, got lucky. 1 loss = 0.5 of a win so I managed to claw my way through. Never again. I'd rather die than go through that junk again...and I wasn't playing tank.

[@MattRob1c]

13:56 Yeah when queuing I specifically leave tak out of it because I'm just tired. I played tank most of the start of overwatch 2 but I just couldn't anymore. I'm glad my cousin is having fun playing tank (I'm pretty much pocketing him)

8:08 THE REIN BYEEE

[@karmichel]

Support and tanks are miserable in this season... They overpowered the class which have the stupidest players in the game... It is so frustrating to be a tank and get exploded or being a support and being manhunt the entire game....

[@ismael4458]

I feel like the editing is getting better

[@fishandnoodles3288]

i'm just so glad rivals is coming out later this week. like FINALLY

[@gamerbeast3616]

Rivals is garbage

Tank experience in a nutshell KEKW

[@Elijah2pac]

At least Metalysis got Flats laughing

[@Eman47111]

When I queue all I play tank for hours straight, no exaggeration. When it's that bad you know something is fundamental wrong. And widow is absolutely miserable to play against and she has been for so long. She takes constant pressure just to make sure she doesn't kill half of your team within 3 seconds

[@Jake-kc6js]

Was grinding drive point last night and had this exact experience, 5 losses in a row. All on tank

[@blahblahman54321]

Ever since the sombra rework widow has become such a pain to deal with

[@bigshid7097]

guys, i think he’d rather chew on glass than play another year of tank like this and i’m right there with him

[@connormarshall1272]

One must imagine us tank players happy. Playing tank feels like sisyphus

[@ChangeIsPossible-420]

honestly, I'm getting reported for trying to take high ground as a tank. I got asked to join voice, so I joined and they're like "why do you keep going up, you're the tank you're supposed to be taking space on main" and I'm like "so I should just get shot at by the high ground bastion and widowmaker and pray that you guys kill them?" and at the end of the match they were like "report and avoid our tank" like, I've never had a worse time tanking in overwatch. Ever.

[@boozefoxx]

yeah i never queue as tank anymore, it really just a miserable experience

[@flyingfajitas]

ngl, Metalysis is extremely strong simply because of how much fun he has.

[@dreaddistrictgn5477]

I hope they bring back 6v6 for life and never change it again, overwatch was goated when it was 6v6 😢

[@CJMattias]

Ow2 5v5 format is just a literal meme nowadays

[@draunt7]

I wish Flats had joined OnlyFangs as a Prot Warrior. He would've enjoyed a real tanking experience.
