Lol. After all these years they're thinking of rolling back the 5v5 changes. To quote someone from Reddit:

PVE was dropped, heroes are free again, and now 6v6 is back. Blizzard spent the last couple of years turning overwatch 2 back into Overwatch 1.

Edit: See also the developer's blog post about this, which goes into great detail explaining their decisions over the year and how we got here. Really worth a read if you are (or were) an OW player.

Counterpoint, in TF2 teamwork is also very important, yet every class can quickly drop every other one. Even medic can drop a heavy in under 4 seconds of sustained fire.

This isn't TF2 though is it, the games were designed differently and achieved different things. If TF2 is the game you want, why not play that? Overwatch had it's own identity, one the devs have slowly stripped away.
