Welcome!
This is a community for all things related to Blizzard's Overwatch 2.

That's it for now. Rules will be updated if required.
So much of this sounds outrageous. Genji lifestealing on ult and deflects? Mauga passive healing on point and counting as two people to cap faster? Orisa getting her shield back? Zenyatta double jump and buffed right click?
I get that the game needs a big shake up but it sounds like they gave up on controlling power creep and made everybody deal more damage and heal faster, something they keep saying they don't want to do because OW2 is already fast paced.
They took whatever limited time mode had the perks and expanded on it, without making them nearly as broken
Looks like it's also trying to reduce hero swapping as you have to level them individually
They can always tune things later, it's not like this is going into competitive immediately (if at all)
Looks like it's also trying to reduce hero swapping
Blizzard: makes a game where hero swapping is an integral mechanic
Also blizzard: disincentivises hero swapping
But did they make any changes to the PvE perk trees? Oh the game mode they advertised as the main reason for making OW2 still doesn't exist? OK I'll go fuck myself.
