You underestimate the amount of meta slavery that occurs in high ELO, my friend.
she has 200 health, 200 armour. the highest tank survivability other than sig, an incredibly strong ult and you still think that she was dumpstered because her halt is too fast
No, but DPS queue times have been going up. This like, won’t help, but it won’t push it up that much more than they are now.
But like, it is a problem.

Well I never see that…
I actually don’t think so. If anything, these changes will make queue times shorter because Sigma and Orisa and not very popular among the tanking community and Rein is.
That’s because Orisa and Sigma have been the best tanks for a decent bit now.

Same here hehe willing to comeback when they fix it but it looks like its never going to happen.
He’s the most viable tho. Orisa’s so bad that Mei does a better job at holding chokes than her, and that’s supposed to be her forte.
Thanks for the ult charge D.va 
Balancing for the top is supposed to trickle down and improve the lower ranks, but it’s only been getting worse.
The issue is I think that it won’t be people getting on and playing because Rein is more dominant now.
Like, all of the tanks just suck to play.
Making them suck to play more over all isn’t going to help.
They need to make them suck less. Not be stronger as such, but, god damn do they suck to play right now.
I couldn’t face tanking at the best of times, but, seriously, now it is just awful.

Dude. Rein and Zar are already dominating the other tanks outside of GM.

You can’t claim Orisa is holding back the other tanks when she’s barely in the game in the first place.

Even before double shield, no-one played Rein in my games. If I was tank, I’d have to be Rein. And if I wasn’t playing tank, we wouldn’t have a Rein.

That’s subjective
I find most of the tanks to be fine to play. Prior to these changes, Sigma felt too good.
That’s not true at all. There’s a reason she has a high pickrate in GM.
Odd, though that is just anecdotal data.

You do know that 2 DPs just got buffed and 2 tanks got nerfed, right?
Of course the times are gonna be a bit longer for the next little bit.
You do know queue times are a thing in the higher ranks, right?

There is a clear arrow over the last year of the direction they are going in. They are doing nothing to change that.
Sooner or later they are going to have to fix it.

Going by the stats for the rest of the player base, it doesn’t look like they are affected that much.
?
Watch out for the 1%
