So no limits meaning no supports and the team with that one player who decides to play support kinda just wins. Also I genuinely believe widow players don’t like fun cause it’s the same character and for the sake of ruining everyone’s time with the hitscan one shot you still play them in the classic mode instead of one of the characters that have significantly changed.

They said that no limits is only going to be for a couple of days. They probably just wanted to let people enjoy the chaos of 6x Winstons at once for a minute, but understood that limits were added very early on for a good reason.
Widow’s identity since OW1 launch has been pretty much the same, its only the game that has been degraded around her specifically to keep it. And Tracer’s for that matter.
You see, the people that dont want to engage in a team game like the rest and deny any sort of fair interaction with their team OR their enemies are more important that the people keeping the game around. At least according to Blizz.

I really wouldn’t lump tracer in that boat. She has been kept strong, like hilariously ignorant amount of time but it’s just not comparable to widow.
Tracer not only is like 50x harder to play in general but you at least can interact with the hero. She doesn’t have immediately anti-fun mechanics.
Widow has a one shot that’s hitscan and she does it from a range where 90% of the cast can’t even touch her.
They are on the same boat and the fact that their gameplay is mostly the same that from launch really showcases this.
Doesnt matter and I dont care.
A hero being difficult doesnt mean they are allowed to be a balance issue.
Specially when many changes done around them affect the game as a whole and trickle down. Retail OW S9’s changes are the best case of this.
Recall by its own is ‘‘your input in this encounter doesnt matter, I deny it and I win now on the re-engagement that I dictate happens’’.
Yes, Tracer isnt out there oneshotting from 10 miles away instantly, but she is still obnoxious and a protected privileged hero. God forbid we have working turret heroes or CC because then Tracer mains complain until Blizz castrates the offending heroes.
Not that it matters because this isnt about fun. ‘‘anti fun’’ is a meaningless term. It can mean any hero that annoys someone.
