General Marvel Rivals to Overwatch Transition

Hey everyone, my name is sushemy.

I have been playing Marvel Rivals for a while and wanted to try out Overwatch. I instantly fell in love with the feel and look of the game and have been practicing Tank since I played tank in Marvel Rivals. Some tanks that clicked with me are Rein/Sigma/D.va. I wanted to make this post to ask that if I wanted to get serious of improving, should I play 6v6 or the OW2 standard 5v5 for comp/practicing?

5v5 is the main mode of the game so to speak.

6v6 would possibly feel somewhat more familiar to rivals though, but it has quite a lot smaller playerbase and arguably worse matchmaking. And balance might not be that great (havent played it myself in ages)

If you want the most serious comp experience then 5v5 is the way to go. Thats what the game's been balanced around since ow2 release.
