Curious how Ana ban rate will impact queue times

i hope so, been playing it since it came out and got that feeling from ow1 openque again. 2tank limit is great, must say 4tanks one moira was also stupid fun ngl.

Realy hope devs put 6v6 OQ more infront of 5v5, streamers are playing 6v6 over 5v5. Hope they dont listen to these low skill players that cry for rq 6v6 tho, that would be the end

I haven’t since the 6v6 modes came out

ball+doom in 6v6 without an Ana is worse than playing against ball or doom in 5v5 without an Ana

Luna’s ban rate was pretty low before s2, though. She was banned a moderate amount in s0, then through s1 her ban rate lowered. Even without the Lunar-Hulk switcheroo for Namor, she’d be at a low ban rate.

It’s possible that Ana gets some core changes, but I really wouldn’t get your hopes up about it being inevitable.

ball and doom just pop with zen and sombra, wdym. both are hard countered by hog.
just go tripple support 2 tanks and run them over, havent had a problem with any of them, i just go bap and outplay them, ana is just the easiast way to counter them on support, just ask your team to get one zen and sombra/cree/mei just one of the dps and they are popping like nothing.

She has, um, a little more than nothing to do with why people refuse to tank.

If you think this will influence queue times, you are in for a… Shock, love. Tee hee. :vulcan_salute:

Well idk a hero being hard meta for a majority of OW2, I mean damn near perma picked and having 2 of the most insufferable abilities to play against as a tank?

Yea I’d like to think that is a big reason why people don’t like to tank lol. It’s not the only reason but it is A reason.

I mean

Ana is a pretty big reason why I despise tank, same for anyone I regularly play with.

I’m still stupid enough to one-trick Mauga to T500 regardless of D.va’s permanent console meta with an Ana meta, but my LORD, I am actually going to get to have fun again with tank.

Honestly? I hope you guys are right. I would love to be wrong. More tank players will improve the game SUBSTANTIALLY. But that role is cursed and the developers cater to the wrong people. The fun never lasts…

It depends on what type of tank players come back.

The Mauga horde could certainly have the potential of being off-putting for other tank players.

I am not holding my breath. I have the cards now and I will use my first ban on Ana. Most likely most are going to do the same.

This is directly from the directors take - they will fix her when they see the raging posts on the forum.

Finally, we’ve built tools to help us gather information from Hero Bans, such as how often Heroes are banned in each rank, region, platform, and map. This information will help our designers to gain a more objective understanding of which Heroes the community believes are strong or frustrating to play against.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: if Ana is perma banned then this forum will detonate with Mauga/Hog whine fests.

I look forward to role-less queue returning as the primary mode of play in this game

Don’t worry, bro, once Ana’s gone, they’ll find someone else to blame for their incompetence.

What just increase her ult charge that’s it?

Luna only has amazing ult her kit is pretty average and Ana has an insane kit. They aren’t even on the same level. Luna was banned for Namor which sucks. Bro had a 39 WR matchup against BP

She got banned literally for Namor(sucks against dive) and Loki. She’s got amazing ult that’s it

Honestly? Yes. Ana is a symptom of a bigger problem. She’s been like this since her release and the Meta was always different around her.

I think that the big thing about the game around her is that both sustain and overall damage are way too high, and she disrupts this balance in favor of the latter.

Clearly she is still top healer that is banned and climbing.

Ana is next. Ana Biotic is going to be revisited. We know have a large set of healers who can do much better than Ana if Ana was not such a META dominant pick.

She’s on top because literally her ult and that’s it right now other than Loki. Alhonesty Loki and Rocket are better than her right now.

Honestly, I don’t think it changes much

BUT! If support queue times go down that just makes banning that hag even sweeter for me. :grin:
