Aaron didnāt do anything for me to genuinely hate him for, but he hasnāt earned my affection yet.
What Iām saying isā¦
Daddy Aaron needs to up his seduction skills, whereas papa Jeff turned me into a lovesick puppy.
This is the reason why I donāt feel included in this āāWEāā
If he want my love he have to gain it by saving this game u.u

I mean to be fair Jeff would never have allowed 5v5. He stated he didnt like the idea
Yea in 2021 the only form is uwu
Yaay! Thatās amazing haha 
iām so glad iām not the only one lol.
He was a force behind 132 solo tank and stressed the need to lower queue times at all costs.
As someone that has studied the game design of this game since it was released, I can confidently back the developers decision on this matter.
As even since the early days of the game the odd combination of two tanks were usesaully enough to completely shutdown the vast majority of playstyles. Like you would think the likes of Reaper and Mei would shut down a given Winston and or D.va, and in a 1v1 dual these dps would win the vast majority of time. Yet when putting both of these tanks together, they completely cover the others weaknesses.
Making counter picking in general pretty much pointless.
and in turn the two would have to be nerfed into the ground like with what happened with orisa and sigma, or have a hard counter introduced such as with the likes of Brig.
Not to mention the amount of cc in general that is needed to maintain any form of balance in this game, So that heroes can keep an ounce of their incredible abilities and playstyles.
While most of that isnāt needed in the 5v5 scenario.
As without that second tank CC can/has to be tuned down, Meaning a lot less flashbangs, hacks, and freezes to shutting down your team. Allowing the one tank you do have to be a lot more aggressive in where and how they play.
It also means that their is a lot less chance that they are going to be completely isolated, or focused down to do how unsafe it is to stay in the LOS of the enemy team. Of course your still going to die if you charge head first by your self, into the middle of the enemy team.
Be it that simply playing around the mapās various corners, bits of highground, and flank routes. You should be able to hold and push through just about any area, even without the likes of a big barrier.
Do to how much value an off angle pick from a flanker/sniper/or offensive support can be , simply absorbing a hit or two or pushing the enemy back can go a long way in getting your team to the end of a given point.

Glad for news and some insight where they are working.
I hope i donāt sound like a jerk, but i hope the pride stuff doesnāt take away or slows down the ow2 development. (considering ow2ā¦ I see why they want to give atleast something that comes probably to our live game in the near future as everything else is āyeah after ow2ā¦ Map editor in ow3ā)
Also hoping to get more views of 5v5 during its development, hopefully with some sort of player feedback especially the mentioned rolles like tank & snipers.
Considering the small drops of infos we got since blizzcon, this was a major drop imho.
Even though not a lot can be confirmed they showed us something theyāre working on.
Some progress they have made.
And i really appreciate that, knowing they normally drop news on usā¦ When its done
Speak for yourself 
Latest news. I use all the emotes the way I want.
But that is still 6v6. I never said he was above changing the number of people in each role he just didnt like 5v5.
Please talk for yourself. thank you.
When did he say that?
Dont remember where he said it but it was stated that they experimented with many different team sizes and he said 6v6 was the best choice. Ill try to find exactly where he said it and get back to you.
