Not just tanks and healers, it gotta be fun tanks and healers.

I want a squishy 200HP tank plz jeff. I want to feel the risk of dying if I make a mistake, but still able to shield or make space for teammates.

a glass canon tank would be amazing. would need the highest dps of any tank of course. and probably lots of that health would have to be shields.

what’s bad is no one is queing for tank when we have a brand new tank hero.

That’s cute. In the next 5 heroes we’ll get 1-2.

They should have done this with Ashe and bob. Bob could have been an off tank. So much potential lost.

I would love another dps. Amirite guys

Blizzard takes liberties with pretty much any intellectual property.

Anyone who knows anything about Dungeons and Dragons, it’s history and lore, looks at Warcraft and knows where most of it came from.

Starcraft is basically Aliens vs Predator the RTS, complete with space marines.

Hearthstone is as legally close to Magic the Gathering as you can get without getting sued.

Even Overwatch has some pretty outstanding examples. For instance, anyone who has played Zer0 in Borderlands 2 knows exactly where the inspiration for Genji came from.

Dune 2 clone actually

At the current pace of 3 heroes a year. If they only released Support and Tank heroes to catch up to the current count of 16 DPS heroes. We’d have to wait 6.3 years for Support and Tanks to reach 16 heroes for each role. If they increased hero releases to 6 a year we’d have to wait 3.1 years and if it was increased to 9 a year it would be 2.1 years.

To increase the workflow and still maintain quality they’d need to hire a lot more devs. Given the rocky time the game has had, the abundance of Soon ™, and secret things they’re working on but can’t tell us. I don’t think people will wait around 6+ years for the hero roster to get balanced out with more tanks and supports. I want to believe the game will be around for another 10 years but who knows.

They nerfed Sigma so I don’t think they care if people wants to play tanks or not.

Wrecking Ball is cool but most of the time he just run around doing damage and being annoying while Sigma and Shield Bot protect their teammates. So it depends on what purpose do you want your tank to be.

If you are talking about August 22 patch, then Sigma was not nerfed. He was adjusted so he doesnt act like a DPS. I play Sigma and i accept this adjustment, it’s not a big deal.

And McRee, from Mad Dog McCree.

I need more DPS heroes to play. There’s not enough variety tbh… Tanks and Supports have more than enough as it is.
