Do when know when we’re going to get it?
What are your expectations for the patch? I hope we get the modified ult voicelines again.

Part of me hopes they throw out a bunch of out-there changes for abilities for the fun of it. Who knows, maybe one will genuinely be good on live

I dont get why they have to wait for the end of the day to get it out. Why not yesterday then? The day passes when its event comes out.

idk, most updates on this game come out at around noon/1pm for me, gives me time to sleep in since i work nights and still get to play when they come out but i know most people dont work nights

Hopefully they’ll test potential future changes like they’ve done before.

I’m sure there’s a lot of pve ability changes that could be used today too

Imagine that all the heroes become Roadhog, but keep their ults.

Here’s my hopes:

MASS REZ MERCY, DPS DOOMFIST, SUPPORT SYMMETRA AND ECHO, HAMMER TIME TORB, FLASHBANG CASSIDY, 360 AOE EARTHSHATTER, PROJECTILE DRAGONBLADE, MOBILE ICE BLOCK MEI.

I can’t recall the last time Blizzard has pushed a patch outside of their typical 11am PT timeslot. Maybe a hotfix or two in the 1-5pm PT, but only used in emergency situations.

We can expect April Fools to be the patch to replace Venture at 11am PT, and I don’t know if they’ll keep it around longer than 24 hours for the typical Tuesday 11am Shop patch. If there are a lot of April Fools changes, perhaps they’ll keep it around until the Thursday 11am PT patch time they sometimes utilize.

Do we know if we’re actually getting an April Fools patch or not?

We don’t, but I don’t think they’ve missed a year. At the very least, they just a swap to include the googley eyes and the alternate ult voice lines for a day or two. They have done more than that on occasional years, but the bare minimum has been the eye-swap.

An April fools patch that puts the game back into functioning order, and puts removed content back.

Players will now be matched against players of similar skill in QP and competitive.

Was not Venture the “April Fools Patch”?

The eyes doesn’t require a patch though.

Wasn’t D.va Mech drop killing enemies originally an April Fool’s change that carried through?

All I want is to fly-kick around as Zen.
