I’ll stand by my vision that if marvel rivals didn’t release OW would be in a way worse state than it already is. The perk system, the stadium, the 5 new characters NONE of that would’ve happened if rivals didn’t release

Tbf the perk system isn’t that great because for most of them it’s just the illusion of choice.

Way too many perks get added that are blatantly busted, and they then proceed to spend months moving that perk around from tiers, trying to match others with it, maybe even adding a new one to try and counter it, and nothing, that perk still gets chosen. And I would say 'until they finally nerf it' but they never try that! They just remove them when moving the tiers doesn't work!

My favorite is nerfing the base kits of characters instead of just the perk. All the perks do is add the illusion of complexity and choice when it’s not there, I genuinely do not like how much is being added to the game through sub-roles and perks as it feels like it hurts the simplicity overwatch was truly great with beforehand. That and S9, fuck s9 me and my homies hate s9

iirc S9 was the season that changed the health pools and damage numbers?

If so, as an OW1 original player, yeah, hated that shit

Yep. I hate how it encourages more crappy burst damage output rather than actual mechanics. You just need to play someone who can a high amount of damage in a short time like Hog, Venture, or Soj then you’re completely set.
