Yep, here
Leaks were all fake after all. Good job, Blizz :wink:

EDIT: Looks like they made some changes!

– i.e. accidentally broke their game yet another time.

TL;DR:

  • No balance changes. Long live Genjiwatch/Zaryawatch/Sombrawatch galore!
  • Ecology-friendly event! (“recycling” for those not catching my drift)
  • More skins! Oh but you can’t earn them in-game, it’s $26 for a bundle, good luck!

Either that or we’re not getting them for another week (if not more). At least we got Torb & Bastion back and who knows? Maybe we’ll get lucky and that’ll change something in the meta.

And if not? Time to become a Genji/Sombra/Zarya main!

Or those leaks may be for next comp season patch. They are unlikely put huge balance patch mid season.

Oh good. So Genji and Sombra are gonna continue to be a nuisance?

Oh well. I guess it’s sojourn, zarya and genjiwatch until the end of the season!

Nice, more days of Zarya, Genji, Sojourn, Moira and whatever support.

But they did say they were gonna release a balance patch mid-season.

You hate to see it. I knew they very well could have been and were likely to be fake based on what the devs said their plans for patching in the near future were, but come on man the balance patch is desperately needed.

Can they really not see the tank and damage problem characters? If they’re just looking at winrates, it’s pretty obvious why Sojourn and Zarya have close to 50% considering they’re in every single game

  • Fixed a bug where Sombra was oppressive and unfun to play against.

No? Blizzard?

I will be extremely upset if they don’t implement balance changes within the next week or so… especially after boasting OW2 will be “much more of a live service game”.

I want to love OW2, I really do. I am a big supporter of OW… but not a great start, ha.

I see, well I was wrong then =)

Don’t ask me, I’m just relaying the article they made. They didn’t even bother to make a blue post on forums about it, go figure.

No one wanted “huge balance”. Just balance. Big yikes
