Well umm actually its moreee like 40 60? Last I checked the divide isn’t really that big the forums just make it seem that way, there’s a “Favor” towards 6v6 but not to the point they couldn’t just right it off as nostalgia or say there keeping 5v5 for various reasons.
You can go deeper into it, and I promise you’ll find value out of it. Yes, those combinations are pretty Op, but on the other hand they can give the tank role a chance to have some more fun.
Right now, tank role is the worst to play. Unrewarding and unfun.
Well hopefully it doesn’t happen, because with the current tank lineups and their abilities there would be some horrible metas.
However it’s like i said before-if people really do want it that bad just put it in arcade instead or replace open queue with it. Then both parties would be happy.
But if 6v6 ever came back to ranked in the future I’d just go to another FPS. Hell I’d even try Valorant which is saying something, as I’m hearing it’s in real bad state right now
No this is an argument theres no need to comment further what you said before wassss the equivalent of a nothing sandwich… I don’t want to sit in chokes even longer waiting for who breaks whos shield first or what op combination of the day I have to worry about.
Yes I know both teams will also have 2 tanks… thats such an obvious statement that makes nothinf better especially compared to what other people have been putting up.
None of the tank combos are unapproachable or overpowered if you have a DPS role with a healthy and viable diversity.
Literally the only moment tanks have become an issue is because people are forced to take them to deal with things like Widowmaker (GOATS) or… Widowmaker and Ashe/Soldier (Double Shields).
Of course, both times showcased how much hitscan/flanker mains detest the rest of the DPS role. Symmetra nerfed in 9 days right as she was needed to stomp Double Shields, anyone? That was Ashe/Widow/Soldier mains whining, specially e-celebrities.

I’d like a 6v6 Legacy Arcade Format just to play with it, while keeping 5v5 in regular QP.
you make it sound like the devs would be stupid enough to go,
aayayayyeah, let’s just ummm, go to 6v6, and not change tanks and leave their raid-boss power level as it is,
that’s sounds fun, that’s what the players asked for, 2 raidboss tanks on each team, now that I think about it, nerfing tanks would be a bad idea if we brought 6v6 back,
no…, tanks should definitely buffed if we ever wanted to go back to 6v6, ah yes, that sounds good, definitely

Exactly, put it in arcade. Nobody would have a problem with that at all
is it a contest and I didn’t know?
Yeahhh sooo anywaysss.
Yes, also there kits in general and just they themselves would get in the way you can change numbers all you want but unlessbyou start changing abilities (like there doing with ow2) it wouldn’t mean much.
Even hitbox changes and projectile/bullet size changes would be needed.
Youd be limited in like what you can add what you can do etc.
Basically the same situation as ow2
Nah arcade is perfect for 5vs5
It’s the least favorite option so that should be in arcade…
They can absolutely make it work if they just change,remove,add and balance things out
well unless of course 6v6 open queue but i dont think blizzard would admit that much defeat
that would be the OG overwatch tho… 6v6 open queue with no role queue in sight
(forget no limits 6v6… that was an abomination… fun tho lol)
I dunno, the overwhelming bulk of the players are in 5v5 QP…
Becuz 6vs6 isn’t there haha…
It’s the only QP they can play so obviously they are in 5vs5
What that tells me is that players gravitate to QP regardless of the player count. 6v6 got taken away because the tank role always had a shortage, even at launch and at the height of its popularity.
Fun for who? The players getting rushed down with no way to fight it besides adding more hard CC to the game to slow it down? Or buffing ranged damage so much to shred it before it gets close? It doesn’t sound super fun, it sounds like a nightmare

Any chance you’re a genji main?
Because you didn’t mention nanoblade.
Or is just because you wanted to talk only about tanks combo?
And on top of that, the people baying for 6v6. It means the entire game will need to be completely rebalanced again, bottom to top. Which means god knows how long before it gets done right.
Just for once they should stop pandering to the vocal minority and just ignore these calls for 6v6. I don’t want it back, others don’t want it back. It’s just those with the rose tinted glasses and selective memories.
Dump it into arcade and forget about it. Focus on fixing 5v5. 6v6 is nothing more than a distraction.
Others don’t want it back?!
U sure? Haha
If u go off this forum maybe, but u see reddit?! Google in general?!
Way more players want 6vs6 back or will return to the game …

Not after it’s been hard-meta for 6 months and both Tanks have been nerfed into the ground - along with 1 or 2 urelated, off-meta heroes who were “clearly” the cause for the meta in the first place.
Such was the nature of 6v6.
