At this point with all the problems related to Overwatch, I genuinely believe that Paladins is the better option of the two games. Paladins regularly gets Champions (even at a faster pace than Overwatch ever has), and I think the game is actually more fun than Overwatch.
The only things I like about Overwatch more than Paladins is that competitive is better, the skins in Overwatch are obtainable without paying for them, and Overwatch has an actual story.
Cool, thanks for letting us know 
I had a look at getting that game a while back the movement and gunplay just seemed low budget it put me off.
Unless it’s drastically improved Paladins isn’t anywhere close to as polished. It might be free with more characters (that you have to pay or grind for) but I’ll pick Overwatch any day. Characters are way more engaging & likable & the gameplay is better imo
Tight gameplay and good characters don’t matter when your balance is a laughable mess.
I haven’t played Paladins itself but my nephew nagged at me until I tried out their battle royale game. The movement seemed floaty, and the weapons felt insubstantial and unsatisfying. If Paladins is the same then…ew.
Depends on your perspective. As someone who plays all 3 roles I don’t see balance as a laughable mess… We currently have the best balance ever. Almost everyone is reliably viable depending on the map. There’s really only a few problem heroes at best unlike years past where there were like 10 obviously strong heroes and the rest were sub par
Good thing you have the option to move on to Paladins then 
I too play all three roles, and unless you have GM level coordination, all roles are not balanced atm.
It has been the better option for the past 2 years or so.
If anything at least the balance isn’t a complete disaster.
Not just now, it has always been a better gameplay experience.
In my opinion the reason OW became more popular was purely because of the creative team. Team 4 has fantastic artists that do all the heavy lifting and somehow manage to polish the turd that is Overwatch to make people think it’s a good game.
Honestly, if Paladins had the art team from Ow, it would be unstoppable.
Their dated game engine keeps me from play now, no matter how many heroes they release.
Frankly, in terms of gameplay, paladins is clunky and sluggish compared to OW.
Single player games are also a better option than Overwatch.
Well, we now know that most of the skins are actually made by a third party team based in Germany. So Blizzard isn’t even technically doing that now.
Really makes you wonder what they are even doing over there.
Oh, and #SerisMain
they are working on ow 2
Paladins is always a worse experience for me. Movement awkward, less visual clutter because they just don’t show things clearly enough to understand quickly, abilities are way more annoying, I’m locked into a playstyle with the skills and items I buy when Overwatch lets me swap by just playing different.
I’m not sure what you mean. I don’t grind anymore so my support is currently my highest SR around 3500, my tank and DPS are around 3k. None of my roles are in GM right now and the roles feel pretty balanced to me
Insert confused look here
Don’t you have to unlock Paladins champions? I could be mistaken. I’m pretty sure you had to unlock them last time I played
