To combat a main tank, you need damage, so if the other team runs two DPS and you run an off-tank, you’re going to feed ultimates like they’ve been brought up with a silver spoon. There’s just no way you’re running one support with two tanks and two DPS either, mostly for the same reason - it will affect the damage/healing balance per team way too much.

Controversial to have him this low? Lucio is a ‘good vibes’ kind of guy, and while partying with him might help when you're feeling low, he seems a bit of a fair-weather Support. I'm not sure how helpful he'd be in sticky situations or with anything that required any level of emotional depth or assistance that went beyond sticking on some sick tunes. Points for trying, but only j


Part of that is introducing a battle pass, allowing you to unlock a slew of cosmetics without sifting through endless loot boxes. But some heroes are locked to the battle pass, making it a grind to get the newest releases, even if they are free. This is a significant shift in what Overwatch is all about - experimentation; Now you have to spend hours to unlock a character to try them, and you might not even enjoy them enough to warrant that investm


Tanks, meanwhile, are divided into main tank and off-tank categories. The former includes Reinhardt, Orisa, Winston, and sort of Sigma, whereas the latter subset is occupied by Zarya, Roadhog, D.Va, and sort of Wrecking Ball.

Brigitte is a far more relatable character than Mercy, and girls with hair like that are always great friends. She's not intimidating like Mercy, instead she knows the solution to most problems is eating ice cream, watching Mean Girls, and listening to Taylor Swift. She'll sit in her old threadbare jumper on her cheap couch with her store-bought rose and she'll offer solutions, but it doesn't matter if these solutions are impossible and ridiculous - most problems can be solved by talking about them, and Brigitte's understanding of that makes her the most supportive Support there


Blizzard actually removed loot boxes from Overwatch before it went offline. If you played in the last few weeks, you would have earned Credits just for playing games. Overwatch 2 could reward a similar drip feed of Coins alongside battle pass progress - or offer coins as battle pass rewards for that matter - but it doesn’t. You can’t even earn enough Coins in a season to pay for the next one since you can only earn 540 over nine weeks, and the premium battle pass costs 1,

It will be interesting seeing MekO in a Houston Outlaws jersey. He was a steady pillar through two strong season for the New York Excelsior but now he gets a fresh start with a team capable of surprising some people. His playstyle differs from a lot of other top-tier off-tanks in the league so all eyes will be on him this weekend to see if he was a product of the Excelsior's coordinated team play or if he can be a difference-maker outside of that atmosphere. The Outlaws will need him to perform well not only this weekend but the entire season for them to be taken seriou


There are two at-risk groups that loot boxes exploit: gamblers and collectors. By axing loot boxes, Overwatch has removed its hook from the first group while simultaneously doubling down on the second one. If you had a desperate need to collect every single skin in the game, you would have been able to do it for much cheaper in the old system. Even if you only want one specific skin for your favorite character, you’ll either have to pay $20 or grind out those weekly challenges and save up.

If you’re a free-to-play Overwatch 2 player, you only get 20 items from the seasonal battle pass. Overwatch 2 seasons last nine weeks, so it would take you just over 20 years of consistently completing every battle pass to earn the same number of items I got from Overwatch’s loot boxes. If you’re willing to upgrade to the premium battle pass, which gives you all 80 items, you’ll catch up to me in a little over five years - and it will only cost you $500. I’m doing napkin math here. I haven't factored in the 60 Coins you can earn a week or whatever we might get for free from seasonal events, but you can see my po
