How it feels to return in OW

So, like many, I returned to OW for Season 15 after grinding Rivals the past few months (celestial 3). I did my tank placements (diamond 5, classic 50/50 ratio lol), and that was probably the most miserable experience I’ve had in gaming for a long time, coming from Rivals where you don’t fight one enemy kaiju, playing tank here felt like an uphill battle getting shot in the face by five enemies while having to be everywhere at once as just one person. Everyone focuses me all the time, and I can’t relax for a single second.

Also, that was my first encounter with Hazard, the new tank, and playing against him was absolute cancer (I mostly play D.Va). My guy never dies or takes any damage apparently, I’d rather shoot Hog all day long.

Perks are cool, but they take too long to obtain, and then they disappear when the round ends right after you finally get them. Overall, it was a horrible experience for tanks. You can’t make space, can’t 1v1 the enemy tank, can’t dive supports just getting blasted from every angle. Welp, at least I tried. Time to go back to a game where I can actually play tank like God intended.

Yeah, perks won’t change the fundamentals of the game. They are pretty minor, all things considered.

Blizzard has to redesign the roles and probably get rid of role queue if they can’t balance it.
