Considering Rivals has already fallen into a GOATS meta and NetEase seems poised to repeat literally every one of Blizzard's mistakes...I wouldn't be so sure. I'll keep giving Valve the edge because Deadlock is a fundamentally good competitive game, and it's backed by the guy responsible for making DOTA 2 the best balanced competitive game. Maybe it won't stay at the top, but 10 years from now it's going to be trundling on and Rivals will not.
what's a goats meta? I know very little about competitive overwatch/rivals
3 Tanks + 3 Heals, designed to group on an objective and slowly grind out a victory. Blizzard spent quite a lot of time getting rid of the strategy in OW1, and it has never been possible in OW2, because it's both boring to play and boring to play against. mm
