It was a dream for all of us more than it was a job. My coworkers worked endlessly to make it all that it was and we gave our all to give back the spaces in esports we were privileged to have been a part of. Shame to see the timeline go negative but we know the work we did 1/2
Oxygen Esports/Boston Breach are in the process of laying off all staff and players and will cease operations The company is part of Kraft Sports & Entertainment, owned by Robert Kraft

Swapping to the right character at the right time is also a skill - understanding all the matchups in the game is actually pretty complex (there are so many possible combinations of heroes ). There is plenty of skill expression in swapping and the existence of counter picks actually allows more skill expression. Again if one character has no character you would swap to counter them, then that character would be broken and everyone would play it. (Then there would be almost 0 skill expression) You can dislike the existence of so many “hard counters” that OW has had past and somewhat present and I would (probably) agree with you but counter picking will always be a thing in a hero shooters if the game is balanced well.

Swap cycling never existed at low elo and will always exist at high elo if the game is balanced well. Even if a hero is only marginally better in the matchup they will always swap to that hero. Sure idealistic balance would have every character be neutral matchups on paper and only come down to “skill expression” but that isn’t possible in a hero shooter. I’ve ignored that possibility because it is impossible. You can have some neutral matchups for sure but there will always be good and bad matchups and swapping heros should be a necessary skill (in a balanced game).

@Zimzams123 @piplupwtf Im sorry have no idea what your point is? If a hero is so good you should literally always pick them and never swap - that hero would be OP? Would it not?

@Zimzams123 @piplupwtf I don’t agree with this - if there is a hero that is so strong there is no counter picks - then that hero is broken. You can debate on wether there should be “hard counters” but hero swapping should be a must in any meta.

Creators: “Bring 6v6 back it will save the game” Dev team: *brings 6v6 back* Creators: *complains endlessly anyways*
DPS DOOMFIST IS NOT 1:1 1. meteor void tech does not work 2. uppercut feels off. you drop too fast at the end of uppercut (this one sucks) 3. you cant modify your slam hitbox looking up & down
