In a twist thatโs stoked debate, Ramattra, a tank hero in the esports scene, remains in the game but faces bans in matches, as the new voting system rolls out. Since April 2025, players are split over this character's status, leading to lively discussions on balance and fairness.
Players are clarifying misconceptions about Ramattra. Heโs not permanently banned but will be voted out of certain matches. Teams can vote to ban four heroes before each match, with a maximum of two from the same role. Players are hopeful this approach will direct attention where it's most needed.
Despite some clarification, confusion persists:
Uncertainty Lingers: "What do you mean by 'banned'?" questioned one, reflecting the confusion among many.
Alternative Suggestions: Players question why Ramattra was selected over others, with a player stating, "Why ban Ramat when Doom, Ball, Zarya, Winston, Orisa, D.Va, and Roadhog exist?"
Humor as a Coping Mechanism: Humor remains prevalent, even as frustration builds, with one comment noting, "Cause our agony is grape flavored" and another chiming in, "Grapes of wrath."
As discussions unfold, more players voice their thoughts:
Concerns Over Balance: One player said, "If the enemy team doesn't roll with Zarya from the start, they'll switch as soon as they start to lose."
Need for Communication: Calls for better communication from developers grew, highlighting the need for clarity on character selection.
"This doesn't make much sense to me," echoed by frustrated players on various user boards.
The sentiment among players remains largely negative. Many express dissatisfaction with bans on heroes they feel are less overpowered.
โฆ Demand for Fair Gameplay: Players advocate for balanced approaches, especially regarding characters perceived as overpowered.
โ Communication Issues: A clear need for developer communication has been established.
โ Grapes as Humor Relief: Players continue to use humor to navigate feelings over bans.
As the community debates character choices, the push for a fair system remains strong. Will this new voting method simplify or complicate the experience? Time will tell.
