Overwatch 2 community easily decides the game’s most challenging role in a recent poll

Following a recent fan poll on the Overwatch subreddit, the community has seemingly resolved a long-standing debate regarding the difficulty of different roles in Overwatch 2.

In the poll, gamers were asked to vote on the most difficult role between tank, DPS, support, and off-role, and the results were surprising. Despite initial expectations of heated arguments, the community remained relatively calm, with most participants agreeing on a clear winner.

Ultimately, the poll declared tank as the game’s “hardest role,” with an overwhelming lead of over 1,000 votes compared to the runner-up, main support. DPS took third place, with off-role support coming in last. While the community generally agreed that tank was the most challenging class, some acknowledged that the other roles were also difficult in their own right.

Many participants stated that the tank was crucial to the team’s success, leaving little room for error or misplays. However, some comments focused on the mechanics and precision required for DPS, which they felt made it a close contender for the top spot.

Despite the poll’s outcome, Overwatch 2 developers have been making changes to heroes, and it’s possible that future modifications could alter the rankings. Ultimately, each character has its unique strengths, and players are encouraged to learn and master them all.
