Even if the off tanks are buffed and they can do as well as a main tank, even if its all balanced and there’s 30 million new players, and queue times are cut in half, it’s going to be a sad game for off tanks. Going to only 10 players a game shows how much the game is dying. Next, 18:30 on the dev stream, they say 2 main tanks can be oppressive. How out of touch are they? 2 main tanks isn’t meta, it’s not oppressive, and in ladder(in my experience from 700-3000sr), it’s only been strong below 1000sr, and even then it’s suboptimal. Supertf also explains well how the tank bond will be gone. 5v5 is good for everybody else-dps are faster and have one less person to worry about, supports don’t need to heal as much and survive longer. A very obvious tank meta will form across ranks, and with no fun combos like pulled pork, swing bubble, double bubble, or dive, it’s gonna be boring for tanks. And in high ranks where meta is more enforcing, instead of having a choice of 2 tanks, it will be one.
I hope OW2 is delayed like CP2077, I don’t want 5v5 anytime soon.
