When the Team picked a Rein and Brig, and you’re a toxic Zarya one trick about to select Zarya;

I do feel like a tank main when I play Doom which made me realize I would be willing to play tanks if they made the RIGHT tank. But for now, Doom and Reaper because I am edgy.

Its pretty great but my fav is the Christmas one, I just like all the pretty lights.

All my tanks wear edgy skins, can relate.

This is why I’m always saying we need more tanks, of course everyone can find a dps hero they like: there are 16 of them. Have you tried Hammond? He’s why I don’t bother trying Doom, Hammond was exactly what I’m looking for in that kind of playstyle.

Thanks to Role queue I’ve been playing tanks on my main. Still a Junk OT for DPS though

gives a hug and grabs a coffee

Sigh, is anyone actually seeing any success with Rine with this patch? I got a 39% win rate on him. Almost fell into plat. Swapping to Orisa saved me though.

every tank needs a bit of powermetal in their lives :slight_smile:


and if you like powermetal i think you got some tanking potential :slight_smile:

currently i’m trying to figure out d.va a bit more in-depth while also carrying on playing sigma, sigma is just what my edgy heart needs.

I definitely am, Rein feels pretty good now. Gotta hit those Firestrikes.

You poor man, Jeff bless. At least its only up from here.

Mine too. All three of my edgy hearts.

i’ve been pretty succesful with d.va in spots here and there, have yet been able to identify if it was because i did something correct or if my team just steamrolled the enemy.
but weirdly i think d.va is my best tank against doomfist, i can chase him down when his cooldowns are down, i can save my supports and dps when he rolls out and just tries to slam+shoot+uppercut+shoot them.

also being able to do a little bit of everything and be able to be everywhere feels nice.

i could probably fall in love with any character i pick up i think if i spend enough time with them.

That is weird, but keep it up.

Learn Orisa.
Oh wait, you missed the edgy skin, right?
Have some :beers:

16

missed edgy skin, also she works against doom kind of, but she can’t protect anyone from doom that well, she just is a hard character for doom to kill and can mess with his exit strategy.

but those pulls can be tricky and sometimes doomfist got enough shields to survive the pulls anyways if everyone isn’t paying attention.
hog is another good one i feel like, doomfist is easy to hook and has big hitbox for shotgun spread to be effective.

but rarely doomfist isn’t that much of an issue i feel like, tracer and genji however, i want to burn them alive in a dumpster fire.

17

I meant learn her in general. She’s a good tank but I can’t even play her anymore.

18

yeah, but that only motivates me more, my brain refuse to believe anything is unviable.
i think it’s somekind of passion for underdogs, i can’t bring myself not to root for them.
