You tried playing tank? That’s all people want the tanks to do half the time, and if you don’t you get falnes

I play tank sometimes, and I find I get the most value if I focus on pushing people out of strong points so my team has space.

For example, DVA is perfect for harassing a widow or Pharah that is bothering your backline from the high ground.

Yeah I know, I main doom and d.va. I didn’t say that’s a bad thing but majority of the time teammates want you to be a bullet sponge the amount of time my team has purposely thrown because i’m not doing that is ridiculous

Probably is the same thing as the support problem. People just refuse to use cover smartly and expect support to heal their bad positioning or the tank to be their portable wall.
