I'll admit I'm curious. If a friend of mine invited me I'd try it, but I worry my flick shooting isn't good enough. I was always better at overwatch since it involved characters that could be played well without good shooting ability.

There is very little flicking, certainly less than Overwatch. Time to kill being much higher, longer sightlines, more predictable movement and third person means it really isn't twitchy. Shooting most characters' guns probably feels closer to Orisa's or Sombra's than anyone else.

I've felt the same way about Overwatch as you, and I'm enjoying Deadlock much more lately. I would give it a shot.

Hmm okay, high TTK makes me more interested. I was a big fan of sombra too. I'll def give it a chance when I get access.
