I really really dislike this tank patch

Is that what tanks enjoy about their role though? One of the most popular tanks in quickplay tends to be d.va, roadhog and zarya whom all are more like a fat DPS than shieldbot tanks only there to enable their DPS. It’s like saying support’s job is to heal, not be offensive with their damage or utility. Nobody wants to be a shieldbot or healbot who only exist to enable their teammates.
