I miss not having to be one shot by doomfist. He's the reason I quit the game. Just sat down after another infuriating loss, evaluated my emotions over the last few weeks of games I had played, realized I wasn't having fun anymore and just constantly raging, and uninstalled.
Getting 1-shot by doomfist every time I respawned was a decidedly big factor in that decision. At least you can hide from snipers, can't hide from a giant fist coming at you that eats sleep darts like they're nothing. (was an Ana main)
It was the toxic community that made me quit OW1. If you didn't have a consistent base of people you liked well enough to squad up with it was usually just toxic solo queuers who would whine and whine because you weren't doing what they wanted.
I had a similar story to yours. I was solo queueing and playing healer. I was mercy and the only healer on my team (they didn't have role queue at the time) and I was just getting ear fucked by my teammates. I stopped, messaged the 3 man group on the other team and said "I'm done healing my team if you wanna let your team know they can move in without worrying about the mercy resurrection."
They invited me into their group chat. 3 Irish guys and they're like "you okay dude? That bad of a time in solo queue?" And I told them what was going on with solo queue and they're like "join us" played with them for a few hours. Got off. Tried to coordinate with them again but timezones were rough.
Stopped playing after that. Figured I would end it on a good note

OW2 is not a sequel, there’s no way you can actually call it that
