They are already insufferable in Deathmatch NOW.

How about if they lose some of their damage output to compensate?

Who even cares about DM?

Such mode shouldn’t even exist in a class based game.

Crazy idea, what if all tanks were a lot less tanky, but we could have two of them on a team at once.

Just thinking outside the box here.

The box is broken and the future is now. A box also coincidentally has 6 sides, noticing a pattern here.

Blizz get onto it. The signs are undeniable. 6 players on each team is what all the evidence leads us to.

It’s almost like tank power isn’t the issue but instead it’s endless counterpicking while they’re solo tanking

the problem isn’t health or tankiness, it’s how easily they are countered.
it doesn’t matter how much health or armor rein has if the enemy team is ram, bastion, reaper, ana, zen
it doesn’t matter how much shields ball’s e gives him if the enemy team is hog, bastion, sombra, ana, zen
it doesn’t matter how much damage resistance hog’s e gives him if the enemy team is orisa, reaper, sombra, ana, zen

these devs honestly don’t even play their own game. i am 100% sure of it. they just get bits and pieces from CCs and then make decisions based on that.
they are willing to do anything but go back to 6v6 and it’s just not working because you can’t balance this game like that. it’s just not possible.
definition of insanity

This idea is genius, why hasn’t Overwatch thought about this before?

I’d argue that it’s fine as an Arcade mode for fun and practice, but maybe it should be restricted to DPS heroes only.

It’s the DPS passive. Tanks just fall over while I’m healing them. The last thing I want is a tanker tank diving me. What am I supposed to do about that?

Can’t disagree with the OW2 buffs. They were already kinda rough in OW1 but not totally bad, they were manageable
 but now it’s like, nope. Not even close. I will never play DM in OW2 lol.
