Overwatch died because they committed to the idea of 5v5 and Overwatch 2 and stopped putting time into Overwatch 1. Not necessarily because of util spam.
They're kind of cooking with the game rn it probably won't last knowing them but it's definitely in a fairly alright spot which you could not have said since overwatch 2 initially came out
Return to this thread in 6-12 months and this game is back to silly changes at least they have the millions from mercy kiriko and juno skins they release every update to fall back on
