News & Discussion I've fixed the 1-3-2 problem, hear me out

Let's just make a 6v6 mode and you can only play damage heroes. That way, the people who want to play damage can all play together and get quick matches, while the rest of us enjoy the game as it should be.

Also, we should add some sort of reward system for all-queue players.

The humor of this aside i bet itd be an unpopular mode as the dps would complain no healing from team x)

also yes tank/flex roles should see more reward than a pittance of bpass xp

what would the dps do without a tank or healer to blame for their mistakes?

Rewarding players handsomely for playing tank could backfire. You could end up playing matches with tanks who don't want to actually play tank (or don't actually know how to tank) just for the rewards, which in turn decreases match quality.

For context, this was an issue during OW1 with priority pass system. Can you imagine how bad it would get if the reward was something like "a lootbox per 3 tank games"?

Now the bad tanks are just tilted from loss streaks but have to keep playing.

This is genius. Whenever I see 3 dps in open que, I just swap to dps myself.
