The "You must learn at least 2 characters of each role" is one of the silliest and most misleading tips in this community

In what world would I need to play DPS? Like genuinely, even when I made a designated account to learn DPS in comp, it turned into another tank account within a few days because in 90% of matches I ended up as either the 4th or 3rd DPS. That sucks both gameplay-wise (you have no space) and morally (I don't want to leave the only person filling to deal with the BS of solo tanking).

Support is a bit different because they're usually abundant, but maybe one game out of ten you'll still have to fill because some dumbass thinks their Starlord is more needed than a second healer. Even then, you can just pick Rocket and not get too invested.

In the end, it's a completely viable strategy to just OTP any two tanks, never touch DPS, and only pick Rocket in those rare cases when the situation calls for it.

Not calling for a role Q or anything, it is just funny to me how instalocking tanks is almost never frowned upon and how you could OTP the role and never get in trouble because the deficit is so real

PS: it got better, I don't feel like im solo THAT often, but it still isn't "swap off tank we already have two" type of situation
