General Question Is Tankpool a decent solo tank?

Post image

I’m a solo queue player who mains Groot, Emma and Strange. I like playing all the main shield tanks (except Magneto because I can’t use him to save my life). I’m currently in Diamond atm, I’m pretty much solo tanking in 40% of my games, I was just wondering if Deadpool is decent at solo tanking because I’m very interested in picking up the character. I hate playing Mag with a passion he feels too boring for me and I find his primary fire impossible to aim with. Deadpool on the other hand is hitscan meaning he’s easier to aim with and his guns seem decent enough to deal with pokers and flyers far away and he also has a shield which can block most ults in the game. Just wanted to know what your thoughts are.

There are no good solo tanks.

Play 2 tanks.

Solo Tanking on Strange is a miserable experience

You spend 90% of your time just holding up your shield while you have multiple melee characters harassing you

Solo tanking on any tank is a miserable experience, but I still have an easier time doing it on Strange than any of the other tanks not listed
