So we have a temporary mini season for team queue, which is something a segment of the player base has wanted for a long time. I am part of that group and in fact I posted this question to the devs on my old reddit account and they answered Reddit - Dive into anything
(I am not taking credit for this mode or anything like that lol).
I watched some streamers play this mode last night and it seemed like they really enjoyed it, but the queue times were awful even on day 1. It seems unlikely that this mode will be considered successful unless something changes (on our side), so unfortunately it may reduce enthusiasm for a tournament mode or even clans. That’s just the impression I get so far, it’s just been way too niche.
What are your thoughts on this mode? Whether you have tried it, or won’t be trying it (and what is the reason you won’t?).

IIRC team queues is actually existed very long time ago. but its 6v6 elimination only
Without a clan system and a tournament system, a team queue is DOA. Getting enough people together to regularly play as a stack is much harder than a few years ago.
With enthusiasm for Overwatch at an all time low, I’m struggling to get people together to play. Everyone has something better to do. I’m trying to recall the laat time I had enough people on to have a five stack.
A team queue is a great idea, but too many components are missing to make it work.

Yeah this. Which is something we’ve been begging for since OW1 released.
I would have loved it back in the day but none of my friends play the game anymore (and I don’t currently have it installed). There’s no way to build a community within OW itself, which all other problems aside it desperately needs.
But I guess that’s too much work for them…
Even duplicating the simplistic clan system that Diablo 4 has would be a great improvement.
Yeah, if they want this to succeed they need to either reintroduce lfg or a better version of it.

I could see why gm would like this as they could stack in comp in a way. Why would anyone else want to do this mode versus regular comp?
