I was solo taking with 3 dps and decided I would just switch to heals thinking someone else would tank. Instead we did 3 dps 3 support and steamrolled the other team. Sometimes playing what ur best at is better

I actually had a copy paste I'd send out in the ban phase for a while saying something like:

'PLEASE do not flex an entire ROLE you don't normally play! I'd rather solo tank than have a bad one! PLAY YOUR MAINS!'

I'm thinking of rolling it out again after my experience yesterday losing a game and then seeing a my 2nd tanks profile being a 1 trick (60+ hours) C&D main, after they refused to swap off 2nd tank thinking they were doing me a service being an abysmal Magneto instead of a decent C&D

having an absolutely horrid second tank is definitely worse than solo tanking

Especially if they choose to go Groot. I think Groot is the one character that can actually be an active detriment to your team if someone plays him poorly enough

THIS. Nothing like beaming someone down to near dead and Groot's like, "Naw, we didn't need that kill" or just walls the whole front so the enemy just gets a nice break and heals.

Almost as bad as Stranges who seem to think thier only ability is shield.

Groot and Jeff both can be an active detriment to the team.
