Oh I know it will be a dumpster fire. Or at least 6v6 Role Queue was.
I spent like 300+ hours trying to fix 6v6 Role Queue issues.
But it will be a dumpster fire with fireworks, and cheering crowds, and work as great marketing.
But even BETTER from that.
- Option A. Itâs great. Which is great
- Option B. It sucks. So now 6v6 Mythology Nostalgia heads can shut up about it.
- Option C. At a minimum, it gives better Queue Times to Role Queue

so how will the streamers who are advocating for 6v6 and sending their pepesquad have fun.
They want a 2v2v2 but your post is completely negating their suggestion ?
You know you have lost this argument right ? why are you baiting. i have well over 1000+ hours as a tank.
I openly challenge you to show me a situation where 6v6 will succeed without a role lock.
I donât recall Double Sniper actually being fun; especially with the fewer tanks we had.

By enjoying the honeymoon effect for about 2 months.
But also I kinda nagged the devs to just straight up let the content creators do most the broad strokes of the balancing.
Not only because it keeps them happy.
But because, if they had a hand or an opportunity in fixing the game design problems, and it sucks. Well thatâs on them. So they are much diminished in their capability to complain about it. Because that would be pointing the finger back at themselves.

But also because most the content creators want Open Queue balancing, mostly.
And thatâs the only kind of Balance they know.
Which has been inappropriate since mid 2019.
However, it would be fully appropriate for this Open Queue mode.

how do you tell someone else lost the argument based on your opinion and not on facts is beyond me?
By just having fun with it, and not needing to win an argument.
If anything, if people wonât listen, then you just use them as an example and make them look silly and unreasonable.
But also you donât need to be too mean about it.
Especially since, they might realize they were wrong⌠later.

Please make sense.
and the devs clearly answered that Content creators will have no say in balacing but they will do the testing. Stylosa, even confirmed this on his own youtube channel and he agrees with it as they maybe more baised to a certain playstyle.
Who cares about the 1% ?
What are you talking about do you want me to link you the content creators youtube videos when they read the directors take on how they expect the mode to be ?
You are bait. You have no argument here.

People have been demanding 6v6 for so long, that they are going to ignore itâs flaws for about 2 months. Based on human nature.
Oh I didnât hear that.
Thanks. But even then, they will be telling the devs âFix something in this direction with this heroâ. And thatâs kinda what I meant by âbroad strokesâ of the Balancing.

Correct.
But the 6v6 Vets like me have never asked for below. THis is easily broken if they run into a 2v2v2 comp.
Also this will never make it to open que comp 6v6. So what you will change your hero when you see a tank or just play 6v6 dps - how would the ranking work for this ?
And literally nothing has changed even with multiple format changes
How much longer will it be until we admit maybe the format has never been the issue?
Exactly how they do ELO currently with Open Queue?
Because I basically argued this stuff for about 6 months, directly at the devs on Twitter, and what they are doing sounds exactly like a 6v6 Open Queue mode with Role Limits.
Itâs just a question of whether itâs 2-6-2, or something else.
Might be a good time for all of you to read the directors take once again.
Seems like you all are pulling up base less ideas and will kill the 6v6 before it even arrives. this dude is advocating for a 6 dps game.

Itâs like this by design. The outcome of the matches are predetermined, and enforced to a certain degree by the DDA and algorithmic handicapping.
I mean, my main purpose in all this is
- Great Marketing
- (Even better Marketing, the more these Content Creators are involved in maintaining it)
- Heatsink a lot of excess DPS out of Role Queue
If it does that, then thatâs all I really âneedâ from it.
And itâs pretty much guaranteed to do that.
This forum is loaded with blizz employee/shills/astroturfers/AI bots/bootlickers. 90% of the content of this forum falls into one of those categories. (and 70% of that 90% is gaslighting.) Itâs rare that you hear an actual voice of reason around here.

Blizzard thinks they made a good decision going 5v5 now they are making so much more money but hey wake up call you could have implemented the horrible cash grab sytem also without ruining the core gameplay of overwatch! it`s all short-sighted decisions to make quick money and I absolutely Oregano that poop
Your marketing vs ingame data which the game values 
see what the game director said.
We also have tens of millions of new players that have only played 5v5.
Tell me why do you think the millions of 5v5 enthusiast who are accustomed to 5v5 mode want what you suggested ?
that is a 6 dps set up.
Do both.
Replace 5v5 Open Queue, with 6v6 Open Queue with Role Limits 2-6-2.
And keep 5v5 Role Queue.
And the excess DPS drained out of Role Queue, make the Tank-to-DPS ratio better.
