Lack of role queue killed my interest in the game

Discussion

I've loved the game since I started playing—so much that I actually got kind of addicted. It’s fun and challenging. Since everyone always wanted to play DPS, I didn’t mind filling in as support or tank, and eventually, I became a main tank in competitive. I spammed games and climbed to Celestial 3! (Even though I later dropped to GM, lol.)

But what was once fun became monotonous. I was always the one playing Magneto or Strange if no one else picked a tank. More often than not, I ended up as the solo tank. Sure, it's viable, but because of that, DPS players insist it’s your fault if you’re not their personal shield and refuse to pick tanks like Thor or Hulk. I'm over it.

Playing solo tank isn’t fun because it strips away your agency. You’re completely at the mercy of your team, reduced to a damage sponge with no real control over the game. Sure, the current queue system offers some creativity, but if your team is running only one tank, their fun comes at the expense of that one player.

And here’s something to consider: the game’s long-term survival depends on people actually wanting to play tank.

I’m still playing, but I’m no longer grinding. Just logging in for daily missions.
