So who seriously wanted 5v5?

Well, this is from February 2020:

@GreyFalcon-11737

I’m thinking more like 1-2-2.

But these role passives are the type of thing they would need to do, to enable 1 Tank per team.

I.e. Tanks don’t get CCed to oblivion, Healers can survive without constant tank protection

1-3-2 just has too many DPS for a single tank to keep up with, and healers would be dogpiled by flankers.

The next experiment they should do is:

1-2-2 Solo Tank

Just take exactly what they did so far in 1-3-2, but reduce the number of DPS by one.

This won’t reduce the DPS queue times quite as much, but it should be 50% faster than 2-2-2. Which is still pretty good.

That said, I think they should make a couple edits to the formerly offtank main tanks:

All Tanks

• Can bodyblock ultimates like EarthShatter, and Self Destruct, to protect teammates standing behind them.
• All forms of CC and Status effects are reduced by 50% effect/duration.
• Ultimate charge given to enemies is reduced by 50%.

Barrier Tanks

If BarrierTanks remain too dominant. They could buff up the damage dealt by non-barrier tanks, or reduce BarrierHP
