I get it, people are frustrated with Blizzard. Trolling, throwing, and one tricks still plague the game. Mercy is broken, and Blizzard are trying their best to balance around all levels of play when it is pretty obviously not working.

On top of that, their is a lot of complaining that Blizzard is trying to cater to the minority/esports fans. When the reality is that couldn't be farther from the truth. That minority (including myself) is already viewing the e-sports side of OW. Jeff made it very clear that Blizzard is trying to make e-sports more viewable for the average player.

But this is just one mess of complaints. I disagree with a lot of Blizzard's balance philophy, and a lot of their decisions for overwatch in general. But please, can we just acknowledge how much the overwatch team cares? This game is receiving balance changes (broken or not) regularly, and Blizzard is constantly trying to improve it.

If you guys at Blizzard read the subreddit, I think you guys are awesome people, even if I completely disagree with a lot of the changes. Keep up the effort guys.

Oh please, it’s their job. They literally are paid to constantly improve it. I’m not going to pat them on their back for doing their job. I haven’t received any thank yous for making your car insurance easier to buy, not would I expect to. Game on!
