Now Playing: Overwatch 2 Video Review
Doomfist’s abilities have also been slightly adjusted. His Rocket Punch ability has been incrementally nerfed. Cooldown lasts one second longer, and takes more juice to power-up. In the December 6 update, the devs buffed him so players can use him more effectively as a brawler-slash-interrupter tank. That may have been too much, so his abilities have been dialed back down a notch in the December 15 update.
Other buffed characters include Ana and Orisa. Ana’s Biotic Rifle does more healing and damage, and the duration of Biotic Grenade effect is extended by one second. Orisa’s Terra Surge can now pierce through barriers, and Augmented Fusion Driver has also been tweaked. The nerfed characters include Sojourn, whose Disruptor Shot no longer slows enemies, Kiriko, and Tracer.
Check out the full patch notes for a detailed look on how the heroes’ abilities have been adjusted.
