Zenyatta

  • Ord of Discord removed.
    Dev comments: ‘‘Being able to amplify a lot damage done to other heroes made Zenyatta incredibly valuable. We felt that his discord was simply doing too much and have decided to completely delete this ability.’’

Widowmaker now can automatically hit shots against heroes with metal on their heads because of magnetism.

Developer Comments: We feel widow needs to hit more shots and I don’t know how to make this italic.

P.S. When you type “Widowmaker” in the forums, it has the red line underneath. When you right click, one of the options is “windowmaker” lol.

Leaving Widow as current Widow is, but fixing the bugs on her grappling hook.

Hero:

Current Symetra 3.0, but with weaker secondary fire and her 3 turrets going back to original damage of 1, but she can still shoot them and only have 3.

Dev notes: We thought her secondary fire was to strong, same with the turrets, but we still wanted her to feel like Symetra and are keeping the launch feature because it keeps her unique

All of Doomfist’s other abilities are now so buggy, they have a 60% chance to crash the game each time they are used.

Tracer can now blink 20 times in 3 seconds, blink vertically, recall to a point over 20 seconds away and throw pulse bomb further than Anas bionade.

(Oh yeah and her guns are now paintballs)

  • Mercy can now resurrect all 5 teammates again

someone on the forums thought this would be a good idea even though we already decided to get rid of it a year ago and have moved on from the subject

Tracer

Recall

  • Bullets tracer has fired are now also recalled, restoring the health of anyone she has damaged in the last 3 seconds.

Developer Comments: While tracer is a powerful flanker, she is getting away with too much in the backlines and is able to basically press a ‘reset’ button on herself when combat is not going her way but it leaves her opponents weakened for her to come right back for a second run. This change will force tracer to commit more heavily to combat, giving supports more opportunities to handle her while also keeping along with her theme of being a time traveller.
