I am so tired of every game being held hostage by ONE person

Is a tank being hard-countered? GG. That team is going to lose.
Is one DPS not picking up the slack? GG. That team is going to lose.
Is one person in the lobby a smurf? GG. That team is going to win.
Is one support cosplaying as DPS? GG. That team is going to lose.
Did someone leave or DC? GG. That team loses.

I use to feel like you’d get a mix of these. Maybe my tank is being countered. But a DPS on the other team is 2 and 7. Or maybe my support is going DPS moira in the backline and dying over and over, but the enemy team’s tank refuses to swap. It doesn’t feel like that anymore. It feels like almost EVERY GAME comes down to ONE (Maybe 2) people on ONE team. Especially with leavers. The swap to F2P makes banning a laughable punishment.

It’s so frustrating and unfun. Winning because of one bad player on the enemy team is not fun. Losing because of one person on your team is even less fun. I’ve been bouncing between Diamond 3 and Gold 4 because of completely inconsistent games.

Just had a pharah go 1/6 on control with the rest of the team doing quite well and we just couldn’t punch through for the W.

Open queue has still produced some of the best experiences I’ve had in OW2.
