I just realized that now that there is only 1 tank, some characters will like Zarya and Rein will never interact again on HQ before the game starts. All those lines, gone.

rien/zar was literally the only reason i played the game during GOATS. Whichever of the duo you were, that combo always just felt so RIGHT.

Is it really working in the beta, having one tank and 5 players? Im still hoping they revert the changes.

I do not like 5v5, I always thought it was a mistake and now that I have played the beta, I can confirm my fears were true

I like how they got rid of Orisa’s shield because they felt there were too many opportunities for multiple shields and it just made it hard to deal damage. But with one tank who’s the second shield? Brigitte?

Wait this legit made me tear up why did you do this 🙁

its been pretty fun to play as support in 5v5, i dont actually have to heal 24/7, i have opportunities to go for a kill too. although im not sure if that and a font change is worth 60 bucks

Legit sad.

Bro wtf, I stopped playing the game when they added the 2 2 2 rule. IMO, It just kind of ruined any team creativity, but as a tank player, I can’t believe they made it so there can only be one. Im glad I stopped when I did because this is ridiculous.

i thought there would be one healer not one tank or just no role lock

oh my god this is way sadder than it has any right to be lol
you should have zarya do her ‘is this guy joking’ laugh emote when rein charges off the cliff. honestly i want a way bigger version of this to send off the 2tank meta with a big look back.

What felt like a huge difference for me was playing sym and not having any shields at all to charge off. Not just shields but not meat shields to charge off either. Feels like sym needs a tweak

They really thought deathmatch was the way to go so I’ll get with the program and play DPS.

Will there be an open comp queue?

As a zarya main and off tank specialist, this made me tear up a bit

They should make an arcade gamemode in OW2 where you can play 6v6. Like how they did with Quick Play classic (open queue).

Me and my best online friend have always been a rein Zarya duo, Rest In Peace to the purest duo

My friend and I just last season started playing comp heavily. Mostly doing tanks. So this does hurt especially since I play zarya and he plays rein. Pour one out for the grav shatters.

This will be something that’ll be missed once OW2 is actually released. Something that made OW unique and helped allow for so much more cooperation.

When I play any role other than tank in the beta, I hardly notice. But man, when I queue as tank, it just *feels* lonely.

o7. Really hope quick play classic is reworked to still have 6v6.

1 tank feels much better than 2 the game feels more like an fps and less like a moba

It’s rough for the healers now because dps need to do what off tanks used to. The game needs old Brig back and all the healers need to be similarly tweaked like her because after 5 years we know most dps will not adjust to anything.
