“specific” tanks when they include: JQ, Winston, Dva, Ram, Rein, Hog, Ball to certain extent and soon to be Mauga. It’s okay guys, one character should be able to hard counter the vast majority of the tank cast!

Literally an Ana counter,
The girl who can not only block her abilities on demand but also her heals?
on demand shield
So in your own words doom can run away but ball cant?

I literally play tank in diamond, i don’t find anti nade problematic as a tank.
Its impactful sure, but that doesn’t mean it should be a issue for me when i play most tanks. Its only problematic on tanks like hog and jq.
Only in the very rare moments where she’s alone and misses dart.
The girl who has to use that “block on demand” for the rest of the enemy team too and if she as much as doesn’t block anti once, she instantly has to escape or get obliterated.
Which can be torn apart in less than a ti’s duration with ease, not to mention he has to waste its entire health bar just to survive while backing off.
Doom has 2 abilities that instantly throw him out of trouble. Ball has to create momentum and he has no block to just tank through anti. His shield is on a long as hell cooldown so there’s literally no way you will always have it ready just in case.
look at my profile, i play ALL roles, not just support
Alright well Ana nade is ridiculous like think about it from this perspective, JQ ult applies anti but its bound to an ult, meanwhile Ana can just toss it from range every what like 14 secs?
both zarya and kirko can cleanse anti, zarya with her bubble and kiriko with her suzu. and you have people screaming to nerf suzu. and all shield tanks can block anti
Suzu was only created in the first place because of Ana
We have one less tank per team and not all tanks have barriers, that’s not really a valid argument anymore tbh

anti has good counterplay, yet people would rather have it wiped off the map then try and counter it
Maybe if you engage without bubble, don’t dance around it and have no back up. Sounds like you play him poorly
I mean, how is that an excuse? You want to block stuff from other enemies but not from Ana? Like thats part of tanks skill expression, managing your defensive resources. Anas CDs are 15 and 12 seconds.
Your poor shield managment is not Anas fault.
Ball can get hunders of HP of overhealth and hide his crit box while still being faster than most OW heroes.
Everything you described is Ana punishing these tanks for poor plays.
They designed an equally unfun ability to counter it.
If an ability is designed and is so unhealthy for the game that another is designed to fight it rather than just change the unfair thing, does that not sound ridiculous to you?

rein = shield
sigma = shield
winston = shield
zarya = bubble
dva = matrix
thats five tanks who have counter play against anti
and if you count hogs breather rework that makes 6 tanks that have counter play against anti
Does damage overtime, launches her in any direction she wishes while applying other debuffs that can help her heal. By your logic symmetras turrets apply slow, Meis ult applies slow so it’s the same thing.
The way you just list counters only some heroes have and completely ignore the points I make, it’s telling me there aren’t genuine arguments for it
Burst damage is more valuable than DoT (so nade lol) and Queen is the team tank, if she throws herself into the enemy she’s abandoning the frontline she’s guarding. Ana just stays back in the fight and throws her grenade into the teamfight for massive profit every few seconds.
Idk what you interpret my logic as, Mei and Symmetra slow effects are not the same thing lol

Sounds like everyone does because his pick rate is extremely low.
I dont know, how is “gut gud” an excuse to keep an ability that shuts down a tank from doing anything for its duration?
My bad that I play Rein on the frontline where he’s supposed to be played. Not sure how I’m gonna “manage” the shield when trying to back away and not get torn to shreds because she pressed one non ult button.
Ana can anti him more often than he can use overhealth and mobility doesn’t matter if you’re sleeping on the ground.
Everything I described are situations that happen all the time and you tried to wave off as “git gud” in a sorry attempt to defend a broken ability.

abilities are not meant to be countered by all heroes in role. if everyone could counter anti it would break the game, that’s not how balancing works
Anti being on cooldown breaks the game lol

can you make your profile public? I want to see what tanks you play. i have mine public. and yes i play ana, but i also have more time on zarya than ana.
Good thing JQs ult applies that as well.
I do not need the description of how their abilities are different. You’re the one who needs it because you see them both apply Anti and therefore it’s the same thing.
