I played some OW1 back then and just got back to the game. Played my placement matches and ranked Platinum 3.
I consider myself a Tank main and I can be quite flexible within this class, but It seems that the meta (at my rank) is usually roadhog, zarya or sigma (with some sprinkles of crazy flying doomfist)
I can deal with Zarya and Sigma quite well, but some Roadhogs seem to be immortal. I usually try to avoid them, specially if he is being pocket healed, but it seems like whenever I try to go directly at him, he doesn’t die. It’s worst if I have a team with stuff like Widow/Hanzo/Ashe/Sombra, then I’m left alone to brawl.
I sometimes try to mirror, which occasionally works, but most often than not, it doesn’t.
What annoys me the most is when some 3-8 dps with less damage than me starts typing stuff like “tank?”. I literally don’t know what to do: I’m getting kills, trying to open space, but with the wrong setup, there’s no way around it.
TLDR; how to counter Roadhog as a tank?
Ask for an Ana, make him purple, 3 of you mow him down, easy 5v4, rinse and repeat
