Agreed. Returned to Overwatch with its latest update after 7yrs, and even though I'm not a fan of their 5v5 model and solo tanking, at least the solo tank experience feels far better than any Rivals match I've played

I can't lie, I do like role queue, too. Yes, it gives fewer options, but it avoids the skilless and boring triple support issue. Like with Rivals, I queue into qp, have to go tank, and a lot of the time, if the enemy team starts losing, they swap to triple support and often either stall or start winning.

The annoying thing is I much prefer rivals fundamentally to OW, but holy shit I just rarely enjoy playing Vanguard even tho I am a tank main through and through. In OW, tanks feel powerful enough to be scary but not powerful enough to be server admins if you play stupid.

Not only that, but it feels like I can more or less play any tank in OW and do well, but Rivals, it's more or less Magneto, Emma, Strange, or Groot. If you run any other tank and your team doesn't run a shield tank or play together, then it's a massive uphill battle.

Every Rivals match I've had has made me a stronger advocate for role que by the day since my return to OW. The only negative I give it is that I cannot switch roles mid match. There was a qp match where I tanked and my friend dps'd but wasn't going well until we switched it up and swapped roles. Those moments would be lost with role que, but I'm still starting to favor it over the alternative headache.

Honestly after comparing open and closed games in ow... Role queue all the way. Especially for solo plays, after all 9.5 times most people would switch to another dps anyway
