Blizzard releases major rebalancing patch for Overwatch 2

Halloween horror is returning to Ovrwatch: with the launch of Season 13: "Spellbinder", the game will receive a balance patch with significant updates for such characters as Mauga, Ramattra, Juno, Sombra, and others.

Here's What We Know

Mauga's Incendiary Chaingun now has an increased duration of ignition from three to four seconds. Ramattra's Pummel skill will no longer break through barriers, but this is offset by a 2.5x damage increase, offering more strategic options for tanks. Juno's Mediblaster healing speed has decreased from 6.5 to 6 hp/s, and its range is now 20-35 metres instead of 30-50.

Baptiste's main fire will have 30% less damage to reduce fatigue. Brigitte's repair pack reload time has been increased to 5.5 seconds from five. Sombra's Hacking ability no longer breaks stealth, although it does detect it for enemies, and the duration of the ability's lockdown has been reduced from 1.5 seconds to one second.
