Whatcha all playing?

Sorry for the late thread! I've been playing the Talos principal reawakened. I never played the original and I'm having a really good time!

Decided to give Overwatch 2 a shot, until the new Doom is out.

First time playing OW in a couple of years, just doing normal 5v5 Quick Play, and it's been fun. Mostly Tank and Support, but occasionally the Matchmaking Algorithm graces me with a DPS game. Current favorite heroes: Hazard and Orisa for Tank, Brigitte and Juno for Healer, and Venture for DPS.

After I'm done with Doom, I'll take a look at Stadium, the new game mode that was added to OW recently.

I have a conspiracy theory that the game tracks your total playtime and rewards people who play a lot of support and tank with better dps queues. I mostly play support, but if I queue as both Support and DPS I will almost always get a DPS game, last night I got 8 games in a row as DPS.

These past couple of days, I've been always queuing flex and I got 5x DPS in 60+ games, including one in the final 10s of a loss, where I didn't even make it to the point.

It doesn't really bother me, I like Tank and Support, and since Blizzard added a bunch of them when OW2 came out, so there's still a lot to try and learn.
