Overwatch 2 TikToks that make you realize Tanks are cooked 

In regards to the Shield Generator voicelines, even Ram has had them since his launch. They're probably just futureproofing in case they ever do bring back a shield generator for something, be it an event or on an actual hero. What doesn't make sense though, is why Illari Pylons are still referred to as generic sentries...

Here's how you fix tanks. Change the name of the role to "bullet sponge" so it makes the expectations of the players more realistic

that winston wasn’t even angry he was just disappointed in blizzard

That last Rein tik tok utterly killed me. Beautiful, really.

3:46 "Good luck climbing if your tank isn't meta" Shows ball one trick

11:40 this is why it was so important to have that second tank. It was so the whole enemy team can't just shut your existence down.

I hate how reliant I have to be on my supports as a tank, because for every 20 games I get bad healers and 1 or 2 good ones. Not to mention you cannot win any fights without a tank

in overwatch 1 9:56 they had ult charge for mitigation. Rein used to get ult charge from using his shield. They removed, like many things such as bastion's sheild, and self heal. They thought it was too strong to let Rein soak damage just to do a burst of damage.

burst dmg heroes (that includes all snipers) end up doing more damage to tanks after the armor changes, Cassidy, Sojourn, Ashe, Widow, all of them do more damage against armored tanks. What the heck were the dev team thinking.

Hogs been a super effective counter swap in my high gold - mid Plat games. Almost on every map and he's just that's good

As a doom player, the armor buff doesn't do anything because doom doesn't have any... I'm still getting smoked by all the cc

(in reference to 11:00 and the mitigation thing) instead of it giving ult charge, if you just want it to FEEL good, make sure the sound of mitigating is a good sound. i know it's silly, but there's something to say for the sound of getting headshots with kiri. other heroes i'll get headshots but it just doesn't make you feel as happy. let tanks have a rewarding sound for dmg they mitigate (or maybe that'd be too much audio-clutter idkkkk)

11:33 the difference a rumble controller makes, I’m more satisfied on tank than support.

When it come to ult charge for mitigation, it could be on a .25x multiplier so it’s not a 1 to 1 charge. That way mitigation isn’t the primary way to charge your ult but you’re still at least getting something

You can always tell which tiktokers are addicted to reddit. they all talk about 6v6 and complain about supports.

In the first tik tok when it was talking about references to other things, theres also a reference to dark souls in the form of a bonfire in third point eichenwalde

I can’t help but wonder what Jeff thinks of all of this lol

Tried to get here before the dumb fell off comments 😢

I used to love playing tank but now it's more frustration than it's worth so I just play the other roles.

I know I'm a noob, but as a tank, what am I supposed to do? I feel like to WIN a fight, I have to kill the DPS/Supports, but to protect my team, I have to apply pressure on the enemy tank to stop them from tanking. It's different with high skill lobbies (not the ones I'm in) but I just don't know what to do, most games I just pray my back line is better then the enemy backline I'll just try to be an intimidating presence

for the first, like day tanks felt harder to kill. i noticed that i was surviving for a few seconds longer then normal. it felt so good to actually notice that i was able to last as a reinhardt. then on day two people adjusted to the changes and now i run into the same problem i have always had. i can't charge in if my health goes from full to zero before i even reach the enemy team.

the chat so slow

I hear it for the Hog. Had a match on King's Row where we were absolutely dominating basically 2 METRES from the FINAL WIN POINT, then the enemy swapped to Hog and it was GG. No matter what I did, hell I went JQ, Sigma, Mauga, DVa, nothing worked cos we couldnt get through Hog and Widow combo, even after bursting down his heal canister. The damage reduction and double buffing from supports is just too nasty on him.

Nice video

From personal experience, support has much faster q than tank. I always flex q and 90% of the time I get support within 2 minutes

I still stand by that 6v6 could work if it isn’t 2 2 2 but rather 1 1 2 2 and have that new role be basically off tank. Any tank with no shield or shield like ability. So queen, hog, ball, doom, maybe mauga if you don’t count his ultimate. And from then it’s just a balancing to get main and off tank roles feeling good in general. You get two tanks without getting the two shield meta back.

Is that propane shop actually a ref to King of the Hill or is it just a factor of someone saw the word propane and immediately made the association?

Queue times on the role with half of the slots needed filled being the fastest should say something…

0:59 It was probably for the PvE…

winton

Can we have a whole video dedicated to doing combos or showing off combos because people still do not know how or when to do one…..I feel like a video like this would help a lot of players……..

Poor winton

I havent played OW2 in a while, because of my internet, but I just wanna say when I AM able to play again I will only be playing Rein or Brig and nobody else until blizzard adds another melee character(maybe venture, since their playstyle actually looks fun to me). My aim is just not good or consistent, so Im genuinely better off just playing the two melee characters that exist.

1:58 why is that tiktok recommended? 🤔🤔🤔

OMG! Hella early yay!

I mean armor tanks do actually take away more damage from most sources. I feel like all armor tanks have gotten crazy weak

Best tank advice: don’t play tank

Niandra is a they?

Uhhh guys shields still exist in the game. Why is it weird to have venture have shield voicelines.

Oh cool, it’s a tank player

8:20 if supports get ult charge from healing why don’t tanks get it for mitigation. Should each ability be equal? No. It much easier to mitigate with Ram than ball. I just think it’s an unfair imbalance that supports can dps or healbot and build ults before everyone else and I’m on rein getting bullied by a hog with little to no ult charge because I can’t get his backline. I think there needs to be a relook at the distribution of ult charge.

Stop the Zen hate were immobile and easily dived 😭

genuine question: what EXACTLY are the arguments against 6v6 now? like yeah, in ow1, there were balance problems all around; im under no illusions about that. and i fully agree that most if not all of the biggest problems with balancing probably began with ana's anti-nade, just to be clear. however. the main issues with two tanks that ive seen raised in discussion have been a) double shield, and b) queue times. but double shield is easily fixed by either removing shields from tanks (eg orisa) or reducing effectiveness and increasing cd rotation (eg rein), which has already been done. if double shield is still somehow an issue and every comp is running rein-sig, refer to solution a: remove sig's shield. he's got another dmg mit ability anyway. and if that isn't an option, then break tanks into separate subroles with main tank and off tank, with only one of each on each team (not that i think it's necessary to go that far, im just saying it's an option that has been presented). as for queue times.... between sigma's release and the release of ow2, we got how many balance patches? how many new heroes? how many new maps? how many new events? there was next to **no new content** for years, so ofc queue times were miserable. and we were left with a terrible balance situation that favoured dps over both other roles, so obviously everyone wanted to play dps and nobody wanted to play tank or support. now, nobody wants to play tank bc it's absolutely miserable to take the abuse of EVERY player on the enemy team regardless of role, so the queue time problem hasn't been fixed anyway. so again, genuinely asking: what are the actual arguments against 6v6? (and pls don't say anything like "the devs don't plan on ever changing it so it doesn't matter"; im not asking bc i expect to change anyone's mind, least of all the devs. im just asking for the sake of discussion.)

"ALRIGHT SO" this comment is just for the engagements

500 views in 30 minutes? emongg fell off....

I think that if tanks gained ult large off of mitigating damage but only by 25% in comparison to dmg it might be okay
