Double barrier and goats were a 6v6 problem where multiple tanks had insane synergy together to the point that not even nerfs were able to shift the meta
Orisa and sigma got nerfed so many times but they would still be meta because of synergy. Multiple tanks can’t work together without ruining the game, as a tank main i love 5v5 and the freedom it gives you
Yeah but 5v5 created new problems as well. There is no backline protection anymore and with the power of some DPS it makes things very one sided. Off-tanks coupled with main tanks shored up the defences effectively enough for the weaker team to actually have a chance, now the better DPS just destroy the good dps and healers then its over. Makes things very one sided a lot of the time.
I am telling you right now, if it was 6v6 sojourn wouldn’t be a problem because of hog. Hes been so effective for me for shutting her down as I have no problem hooking moving or airborne fast targets.
I want 6v6 with no nerfed tanks first. Honestly Open Queue with 2 tanks 1 damage and 2 supports feels pretty fair
Well, whatever issue they tried to fix - they made the game worse.
Which isn’t all the surprising.
I don’t understand why so many players want to return the 6v6 2-2-2 system. Not only was is so stale but was frustrating to play especially for tanks. I stopped playing the game because of how frustrating that was. There is a lot to complain about in OW2 but the 5v5 1-2-2 system is much more fun and healthier for the game.
The well defined problems with 6v6 tanking was double shields, which would be gone with the Orisa rework, getting an unreliable tanking partner just feeding, which tbh is now just one of my supports or DPS just permanently dead to the flankers or one shots that have much more free reign. The last one would be getting double off tank Hog Ball etc. Which fair enough, but I feel like that was mainly picked a lot due to priority pass DPS players not really caring, and the fact the more fun tanks duo’s had been nerfed to the ground. Dive in ow1 was dead, Rush was near enough dead, it doesn’t surprise me people just picked tanks they could sustain themselves well enough on.
Double shield became the boogeyman for people who were desperate for OW2 to be better.
Double shield sucked, but less than the problems the lack of a second tank is causing.
Still think Open queue should be reworked into OW classic. 2/2/2, lowered tank HP pools, and no role passives.
Players seem more unhappy with OW2 OQ compared to the OW1 since tanks are broken in every mode. While we’re at it role passives/tank buffs should be removed in the arcade.
There were so much restrictions about what you could play
Orisa/winston
Rein/winston
Ball/hog
Hog/winston
Orisa/rein
Dva/sigma
you couldn’t play any of these, 5v5 it’s just better, nerf zarya, buff doom/Jq and things will be a lot more awesome
Get outta here with that bs. There was a massive issue for 3 years and it’s finally fixed. Cope as much as you want but this is the direction they wanted to take the game and thank god they did.
Tanks not being fun to play for the majority of players, largely due to having their balance and design held back by the other tank.
Not with the tanks.
This hasn’t been my experience.
I got to GM on tank duo queuing Rein/Orisa with a friend, imma take that one off the list.
Pretty sure I had this chat with you in another thread, so let’s not do this insufferable dance again, shall we?
But you are talking about team comps. Crummy team comps are at the fault of Blizzard and their hero balance. Not the fault of a game mode, 6v6.
6v6 =/= double barrier. 
well that was my point.
LOL. 5v5 didn’t create issues with the tanks? Ha. You should start up a comedy career.
Nope.
My dude, if people are “boycotting how the game works” it means there’s a fundamental problem with the game and they don’t want to play it.
I wanted to run a 6v6 2CP custom game with the current builds, since the settings are available, but no one wants to join! 
honestly i dont think 6v6 needs to return but some changes need to be reverted
Hey Tracer33, Daeris, wanna play 6v6 on OW2 custom mode? I’ve added you from BattleNet
