Overwatch has more chokes and less flanking than TF2. Having many routes is why tf2 can be confusing. Having very few routes and lines on ground that show where offense and defense should go, make overwatch easy to understand

Overwatch has more classes TF2 has more play styles.
(Each class in tf2 has 4 loudouts, there are no loadouts in overwatch each classes equipment is set in stone)
(Explosive Demo and Demo Knight are both ways to play Demo Man while overwatch has 3 separate clases Junkrat, Genji, Reinhardt)

Overwatch has nothing close to disguises or cloak. Overwatch has unlimited total ammo but you still need to reload as all gun magazine sizes vary

Some overwatch characters have shields and or armor. TF2 has overheal that deteriorates

Lucio has compression blasts that can knock enemies off maps but not reflect projectiles, Genji can reflect non streamed projectiles

Mei, Symetra, Zarya and Winston have weapons that provide streams of damage like the pyros flame thrower. Mei is most in the Pyro spectrum, Symetra is minisentry or ofensive engineer spectrum, while winston and zarya are toward Heavy spectrum. Mei and the pyro are far from polar opposites...

TF2 has melee weapons. In overwatch you can punch while holding your gun

I haven't tried out all of the characters and I stick to playing against bots because I got rolled over when I tried playing against real people

McCree is pretty fun, I like emptying my gun into an enemy, doing the roll-reroll, and then doing it all over again.
Widowmaker is my favorite because chaining headshots is a really great feeling.
I want to get better with Zarya but I can never figure out when the best time is to give shields to someone else.
I also want to get better with Mercy. Heroes never die

you didn't like body shots killing squishies?
You're not going to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. S*Gaiden will not make long cases, write stunning insights, or sugar coat his words. He is not the man for multi-paragraph eloquence. He is, however, being honest to a fault, and it comes across in his writing.

Yeah its better to wait until you or a teammate is being shot at because the shield only lasts 2 seconds. The trouble with that is most squishies will go for cover before realizing they got the shield. I focus more on self-shielding to take as much damage as I can and keep my charge at least 50%

I find myself more attracted to Mei and Dva than Tracer and Widowmaker

Using
ice
or a Mecha is far
cooler
than running fast or sniping. I can already time travel afterall

The first sentence of this post can also be taken out of context in a humorous way
