Yes, but regardless, you still got to work with what you have.
Thats been the case since day 1. Cant choose your feeders.

As someone who played a lot of quickplay as support, there will always be feeders. Myself included, while unintentionally, lol.
The number of times I did a bad reposition rotations, resulting in me getting trapped.
If everyone just picks Doomfist every game he will either get buffed or society will evolve into a utopia where everyone knows how to play with a dive tank. Doom mains win either way.

Yeah, I don’t think DF is a dive tank. Almost, but not quite.
It’s more like playing with a 3rd flanker than playing with Winston or Dva.
in what way? he is a disrupting character just like dva, winston and ball.
But he has nowhere near the staying power.
No bubble, no DM, no Balls… general immortality. When you “dive” with him you’re kinda on your own. Like when you go on a flank with a DPS.
he has a fair amount after factoring in block and shields. he’s definitely the squishiest tank, but that may be more a statement on balance than design
I don’t quite know how to exactly explain this.
When you dive with Winston or Dva they’re like this anchor point you can push from. DF doesn’t do that. As I said it feels closer to diving with a flanker DPS. You go in and he does his thing and you do your thing but it doesn’t feel like a push, it’s more like random brawl.
That is regardless of skill level of the DF. In coordinated team comps you could possibly makes this feel way more like a dive but for general solo que it’s not really.

I think this is all tanks now to some extent frankly. It’s like “let’s see if my tank cares or if they’re just trying to do a weekly mission”.

All tanks in the game now feel this way, it’s very team dependant though. If you don’t have a barrier for noobs to hide behind it’s very hit or miss per game
No either here, it’s 10% chance they will be great, 90% they will just be fodder for the enemy team.
Although the win does feel a lot more satisfying when you have a disadvantage with the hero picks 
The cardinal sin for a tank in OW2 imho is being ignorable. Since this is how you take space / apply pressure now by drawing attention and denying positions.
DF is currently very ignorable, so is Junker Queen and to some extent Rein. You can just walk past them, murder their team and them clean them up afterwards.
Zarya is just a win farm right now. People try to play tank duels with you and you just walk past them, one bubble in, one bubble out, murder their backline. Playing smart of course, corners and keeping an eye on your backline not just yolo in. Though sometimes it feels like you can get away with that.

I agree but I think most people don’t know how to play around doom. so many times I have dive dps and go in, then see them way behind me, not diving with me. once people learn to play around doom and stop forgetting he’s a tank now the issue should hopefully go away.
The guy is right though that Doom is so weak that you can litterally ignore him and same goes for JQ.
Doom is bad because the other tanks are just way better and I mean WAYYY better.
