Who is the WORST Tank?
I say this not as a "which tank is the worst at being a tank" but which tank just sucks in general?

I'd say Winston, but maybe that's just because he's outclassed at both backline picking and shielding his team by others. He can still do well, but it requires much more effort.

Doomfist is up there for me. They really need to give him something to help soak bullets for his team other than MAH FISTS, maybe even making his hp shield spread to nearby teammates would make him more of a team player.

I miss old DPS doomfist.

Wrecking ball since his role are swinging around leaving 0 protection to teamates, hes is only useful when he move around and gaining speed/flanking, hard countered by mei since she can slow him down using her primary, his momentum can be easily distributed with any boop/stun/slow abilities (cassidy granade, ana sleep, orisa javelin/spin, ramatra vortex, lucio boop, sym turrets, and some abilities that i might forget), and his utility are situational because in order to gain momentum he needs to latch on to a wall or building too much walls/objects he will crash too it and lose momentum less walls/object he cant get any momentum

Doom fist. Mostly because of the people who play him.

Statistically Road Hog has the lowest win rate. But I feel a lot of people play him 'for fun' whereas doom fist players are sweaty, yet dive and feed and even if they are good at killing they leave their teammates unprotected.

Wrecking Ball is easily countered..... but playing against a good Ball is super annoying.

I'd say Hog or Doom for the same reasons other people have listed here though I still see way more Dooms compared to Hog at least.

Hog is worse, for several reasons, plus he is well neutralized, especially against Ana

Hog was only a problem if you were bad and/or the player playing him was good/better than you...

Instead of just excluding anti-healing from suzu blizzard decided to make him virtually unplayable, because it was extremely easy for him to bully weaker players, and was deemed "bad" for the hyper casual direction they are slowly shifting the game tward.

ok
Doomfist and wrecking ball. Wrecking ball should be removed tbh like I don’t get the point of his existence

Roadhog. I also don’t consider Doomfist, Wrecking Ball, and Winston to be weak tanks. Doomfist and Wrecking Ball have average win rates. Winston's protective hemisphere is very strong, but it requires high mechanical skills and IQ. The downside of Winston is that he is a more situational tank, compared to Roadhog he can be seen at major tournaments. But Roadhog can also save you in the rating system if you have few healers on your team. Each tank has players in the top 250. In most cases, the strength of a tank depends on the rest of the meta, and the team's ability to play with that tank. Doomfist and Ball are often considered weak because the team doesn't know how to play with them. It is not the character in the game who wins, but the compositions of characters that give the overall win condition. But when the characters are mixed, then they all have different win conditions, goals and objectives in the game. Thus, players drag the game in different directions and lose it. If you think Ball is weak, then check out chazm on Twitch.

Roadhog is by far the worst currently, which is why everyone is waiting for his rework. He works well on maps like Well or Sanctum where you can pull people into pits, but otherwise is a massive Ult battery for the other team, and becomes completely useless if they have a decent Ana.

Some tanks like Winston, Ball and Doomfist seem bad at lower skill levels, but then you get to higher ranks and they are an absolute menace. They're great if you have the skill to play them, which is exactly the reason they tend to get a bad rep, because people are notorious for overestimating their own skill and being absolute trash.

And in all fairness, there's a logic to that, because people who are learning to play high skill floor heroes are absolutely useless, whereas a completely noob playing another more basic tank isn't as obviously terrible.

This is also basically why some DPS heroes like Sojourn seem meh at certain ranks, but dominate at other ranks.

Right now, either doomfist or roadhog, but at least the latter is getting a rework soon.

Hog is bad from casual to ranked, and even professional competitive

Hog sucks ass and he don't get to see any use outside of ilios well. And boy amount of people who pick hog in that specific dumb map only to get wrecked.
