Overwatch 2 has swiftly responded to the recent mid-season update with an emergency patch aimed at rebalancing several heroes. Following substantial buffs to tanks, Ramattra and Zarya have received nerfs to their core abilities.
Ramattra's Nemesis Form has seen a cooldown increase, while its armor and health have been reduced. Zarya's protective barriers now have longer cooldowns and shorter durations. Beyond the tank class, Pharah's health has been decreased, and Illari's support abilities have been adjusted. Lucio, another support hero, has experienced a slight increase in his Sonic Amplifier's knockback.
