1. You don’t have to worry about one shots from widow or Hanzo, ever. Sure they’ll go for your team, but you can take riskier players knowing you won’t be deleted

  2. You can cancel or flat out tank most ultimates. Dva, Sigma, Orisa can eat or block most dps ults, rein can block, Zarya can cleanse, etc

  3. You have the ultimate with the most potential for team kills. That’s because most tank ults are for CCing or displacing the enemy so that your team gets the advantage, allowing for 1 ult team wipes

  4. You don’t really have to worry too much about picking off enemies yourself - your job is to make space (by literally taking it or by displacing the backline), and to peel for your team

    Tank has a much wider definition in Overwatch than other games that have Tanks. They all create space in different ways. The need from the community to have a mobile damage sponge rather than using cover effectively is the real issue.
