Samito wanted to clarify that he's not 100% on the stats he cited from Overbuff about the tank stats, since he thinks they actually show the pick rates of the heroes, as opposed to the rates of people queueing the role.

@@o0_VanYsH_0o > Overwatch Reddit AMA Confirmed that Overbuff was pretty accurate Remember that the exact quote specified when it comes to win rates. The pick rate data is skewed and not an accurate representation of how many people are playing the role. If it's still not clear, for an Overwatch role queue game to happen, it must have 1 tank, 2 dps and 2 support. So unless you're using games where role queue doesn't exist, that's the only way you end up with role pick rates that are different to 20%/40%/40%. This is why the comment above mentions the rates of people queueing the role, since that data would actually tell us something, but sadly that data is not something we can collect.

@@o0_VanYsH_0o Samito's argument doesn't make sense when you boil it down, though. Tanks are powerful now and feel terrible; there aren't enough tank players and there were even less tank players in 6v6, hence the bribing. His solution is to *make tanks weaker* and add another one to team comps and mystically people who didn't play tank before will suddenly flock to playing tank again? Make it make sense. It doesn't. It's just rose colored glasses on a game he raged about back then and refuses to admit just how much he hated that too.

I was screaming for that when they talked about Sombra. Sombra might be fine atm, but she's *very* different from how she was initially. Adding more burst but removing the translocator had a much bigger effect than non-Sombra players realize. I think most would much rather have kept the old translocator, but have a non-perma invisibility. The best suggestion I've seen is that her invis is based on movement; she goes invis, and a bar drains as she moves. When it runs out she turns visible, but if she *doesn't* move, she can stay invisible. Think about what that'd do. It'd create "Sombra spots" that Sombra players would consider optimal to hide and wait for someone to approach, and these spots have to change when the community realize, and then Sombra players will have to find new spots. This would literally replicate the IT security vs hackers arms race. This prevents her from spawncamping efficiently, emote spamming people and just generally being annoying. Instead her engages relies on Sombra getting something out of it: If she doesn't, she uses translocator to escape and now has both abilities on cooldown - if someone correctly identifies where her escape was, you've made Sombra a sitting duck, completely without abilities. And while she waits for cooldowns, the enemy team has earned a numbers advantage. Current Sombra is fine, but she's not Sombra anymore. She's a risktaking assassin, which doesn't even apply to her lore or presentation either.

It is funny, because as these conversations go on further talking about the different problems in the game. The one reoccuring theme is 6v6. And as much as they say they should try talking about other things (even Samito trying to stay away from it) it is inevitable, because it is the CRUX of the issue. Tank suffers from being hard focused, DPS suffer from not being able to duel tanks and supports suffer from the DPS passive which was introduced to reduce their insane healing. And what is the solution? 6v6. Tank has a teammate to split pressure (and more importantly enemy cooldowns) and can also contest multiple areas of the map at the same time. DPS can duel tanks that misplay because their health is lower and cooldowns are weaker. And supports dont have to deal with the DPS passive (all general role passives should be removed perhaps excluding the passive heal) AND healing wont be as strong because there are 2 tanks to split the healing resources and cooldowns. It is so obundantly clear.

@@DriplessShrimp Baseline 6v6 tanking wasn’t fun, even before role queue. Same problem of exploding, but you’d sprinkle in a lot of CC spam. So no, it was fundamentally a bogged down experience that drove players away. It just became more obvious when they added role queue and people were actively forced to select tank. I like playing Tank more now than I ever did in that rumble in the jungle, flung across the map 7 times while I don’t get to press a single button format you prefer. The endless cope of “just balance 6v6 better, then people would have loved it” is based on nothing but a self affirming cycle to make yourself feel better about the “terrible” state of the game. It’s just so tiresome. 12 min queue times for masters DPS? Must have missed it lmao, I don’t get those. Unless you’re talking about OW1 queue times? I didn’t play DPS in diamond 6v6 because of the consistent long queue times, it was just faster to play tank. Think the most I’ve waited in OW2 was a 7min queue, queueing with a a duo who was diamond and also queued DPS, we’re talking max range SR diff. When are you queuing to get a 12min queue? At 4AM?

@@why8642 Youre in the minority though, even if Overbuff Stats are not accurate its very very clear the % of Tank palyers is much lower than in OW1 And no even in 2016 Tanking was more fun because people didnt know better and there actually wasnt that much CC on release, the worst thing was Cass Flash, Hog Hook or Mei Freeze the other things were ults The biggest CC offenders (Sombra Hack, Doomfist whole Kit, Ball Knockbacks or Knockups, Orisa Pull, Brig Bash) all were DLC Heroes, the Original Cast actually didnt have that much CC and all of those things got changed and could have also been changed in 6v6. There also werent any "Get out of jail for free" heroes like Kiriko, Moira, Weaver or Bap which allowed tanks to make more plays You dont need a lot of CC against Duo Tanks, but what duo tanking does is give you more freedom of Picking Heroes and on how you want to play, sure there will sometimes be a feeding off-tank, but the same thing can happen in 5v5

It's not fun to play support. It feels more like Tank than ever where you have two choices, but they both suck -- do damage or keeping your teammates alive. If you choose damage it's very character dependent and TTK usually isn't enough to keep yourself alive. If you choose to heal, it's never enough and almost pointless. The DPS passive just trashed what made support really enjoyable -- saving your team. Every role feels bad though, because they finally got 5v5 pretty much perfect where every role feels like they do nothing while doing something. I think all of this would be better if we had another tank to spread out the damage, healing, blame, etc.

Funny how DPS and Tank have a similar mindset of generalist role passives are too "feast or famine" and were at a point that for the sake of keeping the game fresh, 6v6 at least happens for a game mode to test the balance and feedback. A note to Blizzard being a dull ult, could use her Avalanche ult from HotS; ball goes out grabbing heroes in its path, on breaking (max distance or terrain) it deals damage and stun (in OW probably either slow or hinder) with the duration based on the number of heroes it grabbed. Wait hold on they might have realized this problem with the Quickplay Hacked event coming in season 11

When they were talking about the removal of one-shot abilities, I believe this is a response to several seasons ago where the devs realises the game was really roll or get rolled. The overall health buffs, and the passive healing were meant to help make team fights last longer, and harder to stagger low health stragglers. At the time when the game was either roll or get rolled everyout said that the match maker was broken but the devs said they had stats to show that even when the MMR rating of both teams was minimal or non-existant they were sitll seering this dramatic steamroll situations. So several seasons later, here we are with larger hit boxes, more health, and healing passives.

The fact that everyone but Spilo just wants Symmetra to suffer really undermines their own credibility and just shows their own bias in a hero based game where bias only serves to hold the game back. These people and their opinions should not be held up on a pedestal and as an end all be all. None of these people even play her and echo the communities sentiments about Symmetra that they perpetuate. No character should ever be niche. Why even have the character at all and have her be selectable on any map? It's just batshit insane that they can't look past their own opinions or feelings and have an objective perspective. The fact she's in her terrible state is because of content creators like these always spouting their hatred for her and then they rip on her more for being bad? The lack of self awareness and their own contributions to Symmetras treatment by the studio and the community is mind blowing to me. They don't like a character and want her to be bad for no other reason than that. In any other setting, this would be unacceptable. 🤢

Sure, throw picks would still exist, especially on some maps that dont favor certain heroes, but its still more variety and and more skill expression instead of the "i win because I know how to pick a counter", thus more fun.

@@KingOfNebbishes i have to disagree, I dont think that example is appropriate and I don't think people would cry about variety when it's not forced because of counter-swaps like tank are nowadays. Personally: My favorite time to play the game was when I had to flex 3 roles in order to finally reach gm. Back to back matches I had played: orisa, zarya, lucio, zen, widow, hanzo, genji, soldier, hog, zen. All depending on our team comps, map, part of the map, enemy team como, and it was like a whole art of figuring out how to help these people win being able to flex so much when others are not. From my experience (and I should clarify, I started properly following pros when dive was about to end, and got masters in s10 of ow1), reaper has basically never been good in high rank lobbies apart from when they used winston dva lucio moira reaper.. doom? Comp for like a month and that was decent variety for some time. I also personally loved watching the guy known as reaper get top10 one-tricking him even when he was very, very bad. He did that by doing unexpected stuff. And honestly, I do want reaper to be good again, but not a must-pick. Maybe there were a few more mini-metas when he could be played, again with doom or sombra, on control center, soon after goats, but I dont remember anyone crying about him, and I was the one playing him in those amateur scrims. However Sym is very boring to play a lot of the time because the metas that favored her went like orisa sigma bastion sym bap zen/brig and that is no fun because you have up to 4 shields and only thing you do as a dps is hold LMB. Otherwise yes she is getting picked and there are sym enjoyers and she should stay that way, niche but sometimes viable. I had enough time played on both of them in those metas, which thankfully werent too long in time-span, and that was not fun, except a strat we had on lunar colony with tp from highground to point and back, whole squad. Got a bunch of great upsets with diamond folks in my team helping beat 3.8-4.2k average teams, but overall I'm glad that lasted for a short time. (Dont get me started on the old versions of sym sith shield gen, troll tp and mini-shield, and auto aim - that was even worse in terms of skill expression bevause its nearly free value for a long time at which point she becomes a throwpick. Very lopsided and will get hated by the all the playerbase for opposite reasons - too good in low ranks, too bad in higher)

because some heroes are annoying to play against. dive meta is dynamic, choosing whether to peel or trade backlines adds some level of complexity to the game. mauga meta was awful hog meta is always annoying because there's a chance your team just gets rolled by him also in lower ranks reaper and sym and bastion (v easy to get value out of) run the lobby. it's why the reaper rework is taking forever, because just buffing his numbers will screw up bronze-gold lobbies. characters that have very high skill ceilings like echo or doom are amazing in the right hands, and buffing them will make them hard meta in high elo games. it's not just "being a good character" you have to take in matchups and synergies into to account. no one wants to play against one taps, so hanzo, widow or soj and ashe with dmg boost won't be something they bring back buff lucio, for example, and some tanks just benefit from that more than others. bringing back 6v6 makes this balancing act so much harder; it's not happening.

Honestly they should just make damage boost have a hard cap at a certain point so it's helpful but not overpowering. Also, perhaps adjust sonar arrow so it gives Hanzo additional headshot damage on revealed enemies? Would keep his one shot and make it more intended rather than spamming a choke and getting a pick. Enemies would also be able to expect it more rather than turning a corner and dying. Obviously would require tweaks such as Sonar effect time and cooldown, but just a thought to maintain the best of both sides.

I think Sam was spot on when he said Pharah is one of the best tank shredders for projectile heroes. I've always like playing Pharah and the times I've tried her in ranked recently, you can get so much value by just shutting down the tank entirely or disrupting their supports with the conc shot. If they're Winston, your regular shots destroy him whenever he moves out of position or loses bubble (which you can shred his bubble with combos or ult), and he basically doesn't get to play. You don't have to really peak anyone else other than occasionally firing at their backline so they scurry like ants and grind the tank's resources. For squishies it's just like he said, you can toss them around while doing really good damage and usually it leads to a kill. All three roles are a target for Pharah somehow, and she has the flight mobility of a hummingbird plus the now increased health pool (making it a bit harder for all hit scans to get a finishing blow on her). Maybe she's just a little overtuned and needs a slight tweak somewhere.

Wow....I never thought I'd see the day where in this podcast that the speakers can admit that Genji hasn't been doing well. I will say it for the millionth time "People are scared to buff Genji because of Nano blade, maybe we should nerf nano Damage boost on ults so people stop using Nano blade as an excuse to keep the rest of the character bad".

Overwatch at the moment feels like if you cut yourself shaving, complain to a friend about it so he takes your razor and gives you a blunt one instead... Yeah you won't cut yourself, but you're not going to get a great shave compared to taking the time to learn how to use a razor properly.

Sym having 180 dps is fine, id say it should even be 195 or higher. 180 dps isnt even that big of a threat anymore with increased health pools, Zarya also has more damage.

195 DPS= tank busting = even worse experience for tanks = less tank players = even longer queue times. Take denied lol

As a metal tier player, playing Junker Queen is very unsatisfying. It feels like I just get blown up most of the time since she has zero armor. Her damage mitigation just isn’t good right now. In light of bringing back flash-bang, why isn’t Cassidy’s flash-bang a literal flash like in Call of Duty? Imo that’s the best way to handle flashbangs and there is still counter play if you can remember where you were being shot from using muscle memory.

watching this post-patch, it's crazy that they made several of the specific changes that Spilo mentioned
