I was super hyped for Overwatch, I loved my time with the beta. I thought Overwatch was going to be the new Counter-Strike, Quake, or Halo. One of those games that just defines its time period.

Then it launched and I got bored after 1 month. Too few maps too few variety.

And whatever algorithm they use for match-making should just be completely scrapped so they can start over. It seems like most games are really lopsided - you're either stomping on someone or getting stomped on. Maybe it's different in the high-ranked competitive play but the hard-fought matches that go back and forth until the very end are infrequent, in my experience, and those are the best part of playing!

this is a nature of the game's design: ultimate advantage snowballing

short of reducing the power of the ultimates: I'm not sure they can do too much about it

I mean there's been a huge number of updates since it launched and quite a few added maps. You should give it another shot.
