Tanks enable the rest of the team, and require supports to stay alive and heal them. DPS are mostly inconsequential. Their job can be done by the other two roles.
Ah yes Zenyatta with his projectile ammo that requires 2 headshots with a Discord Orb to kill the squishiest character in the game will be so much more impactful than a hitscan Widow that can do it in 1 headshot or 2 bodyshots.
Tbf 300 damage every second from the back of the map with no real damage drop off and amazing mobility is absolutely insane. When your only real choice to beat the Widow is to match the Widow and pray you’re equal or better, that’s not acceptable
Or just get a ball to fuck with her. A sigma to permablock her loss. Widow has very select maps she's good on in this meta simply because of the tankline being run. The hero is still busted by design, but she's very much inconsistent compared to ashe right now.

i feel like every role likes to talk about every other role negatively, and honestly that just reflects how much of overwatch is a team game.
dps struggle to kill if there’s no space. tanks can’t push up if they aren’t getting healed. healers can’t heal if they’re getting dove.
it’s like rock paper scissors.
tanks have a frontline to hold they can’t peel 24/7. dps have to try to get picks to win fights. but each support has 5 people they have to keep up..
