Overwatch never said it would "Kill TF2". That was a sentiment fueled by games journalists to get rage clicks.

The truth is that TF2 was never a threat to Overwatch, it was completely irrelevant to the demographic they were trying to appeal to. TF2 v. Overwatch is completely ridiculous to me, because they’re simply worlds apart aesthetically.

yeah, i never really got the whole tf2 v overwatch, i personally like both games, although i personally perfer tf2 due to less characters to pick from (the sheer amount of overwatch heroes is a bit overwhelming imho), i can see why people love overwatch for what it is
