Overwatch 2 should have been released with more tanks and support characters.
3 heroes in 1 year is very few.
We need 5 heroes a year.
1 dps, 2 Tank, 2 Sup.

I liked the post so that people would believe that I am good at the game.

I love Vendetta but honestly thinking that tank mains are not even getting a single new tank in 2025 is TRULY SAD.
As a support main, having the least number of heroes in the roster is not fun either.

It’s kind of nutty that a role that requires TWO picks still has the smallest selection of heroes
Not to mention actually decent heroes who aren’t like 50% niche

The DPS super majority is definitely a strange choice. I guess Blizz thinks players should go largely pew pew.
And Tanks, who get counterpicked every 3 seconds, don’t have enough variety to make the rock paper scissors not the most boring garbage ever (not that it would be much better with 20 tanks)

That’s a pretty normal role distribution for a game with these 3 roles
It’s not a problem at all
Much like many said way back in OW1: the number of tank players has little to do with how many tank heroes there are

At least perks KIND of helped some tanks not just
“Go into spawn to wait to see what the enemy team is using, then pick your hero”
Still sucks to lose on hero select though

The problem is when you have like half the support role being too weak/ too niche to actually use
And tanks who have such bad design choices that they HAVE to be weak/ easy to counter to actually not be too annoying for everyone else in the lobby

I’d still rather have 20 different Tanks to chose from, just so I don’t get as bored playing the 3 meta picks for that season.

Watch people cry about it, because “dont copy Rivals, we like our mediocre characters only every 4 months!”.
Its crazy, but I think this year was the weakest year in terms of hero releases for OW. Wuyang is fun, but besides the primary gimmick, nothing unique. Freja is just Soj, 2.0 and Lupa might be a melee DPS, but kind of reminds me of an aggressive Rein version.
But I am also mad, because the last character I enjoyed was Juno, so I wait now for nearly one and a half years for a new character to play in OW that I like.
1 hero every 4 months… OW cant point with “quality” anymore.

I mean I don’t think the support statement is accurate at all….and I certainly don’t agree with tanks being weak comment, especially not in the giga-tank era
I think the fundamental issue is that “tanking” and “support/healing” is just never going to be as fun/attractive as PEW PEW
you could have a complete even distribution of heroes and more people (a lot more even) are going to want to dps…that’s just how people are wired
If you want more people playing those roles I think you’ll be more effective making those roles more like dps than adding more of them…and I think blizz has been trying that….
Illari, Wuyang and even Juno are very dps like….and tanks in general are more dps-y than tanky now (brawlers)
Wanting Blizzard to not release more DPS is like wanting them to not sell skins for fanservice of youknowwho. Its not going to work, its way too profitable and people like it so

I mean MR has an entire backlog of characters with already defined story and powers; You don’t have to create something from nothing, the base is already there to work from
Like I don’t want to defend Blizzard and it’s weaker release schedule; but they have to create everything from a baseline of zero, or characters who are only spoken of, or have no actual reference in game
Like Junker Queen came about because of the posters on the map; or Doomfist from the first teaser video… How would you create a character and their ability other than “Brash loud woman” and “big punchy fist”
