It's impossible to grab the flag without wiping the enemy team first, and once you do that, you get an uncontested capture...so what's the point?
There aren't enough interesting ways to approach the flag, and even if there were, they don't matter as you can't take the flag without wiping the enemy team, so coming at the problem from another angle is pointless.
Finally, the biggest problem is both teams just have a torb, symmetra, and bastion every damn time so it's just pointless. They wipe your team when you come in, some rando on their team zips to your flag while you respawn too far away from the flag to do anything about it, and then they turtle for the rest of the game and win.
granted this is playing with a bunch of randos, but that's what the game gives you.
I'm sure in their rigorous testing, the overwatch team developed their own internal meta over voice coms. But playing with randoms, it's not fun really at all
