Blizzard released the latest "Overwatch" patch earlier this week. This patch is made to balance the characters in order to get rid of some overpowered play that causes imbalance to the team. Some Players are frustrated because of the major nerfs done to Roadhog, D.Va and Ana. And they aren't afraid to let Blizzard know.
This patch's highlight is the major nefts for Roadhog, D.Va and Ana. Blizzard decreased Ana's heal in half and its duration has been decreased to 4 seconds from 5. Perhaps this is the most hated nerf coming from the latest patch. 50% is a big change and it will surely make a change on how players will play Ana.
Roadhog's Chain Hook targets are now pulled in front of Roadhog, but now when he rotates. The target will be released by the hook if Roadhog's line of sight failed to identify the target. The Line of Sight checks are now done from Roadhog's position.
D.Va's Armor was traded with health for 200. The damage from Fusion Cannons is decreased from 3 to 2, but the number of bullets is increased from 8 to 11. Meanwhile, Sombra is buffed by decreasing the time it takes to hack a target and it's cool down.
Express reported that there's a new emote wheel that enables the players to equip 4 emotes, sprays and voice lines from the gallery. Voice line and emote submenus are now accessible within the Communication Wheel and players can assign unique keys or mouse buttons to individual sprays, emotes and voice lines.
As for UI Improvements, the "Stay as Team" lights up when clicked by a team member. There is also a new button that enables members to join team chat when connecting to a match. In the Kill Feed, the displays are changed into Hero ability icons. Ultimate abilities are now displayed with an electric glow while headshots are displayed with a red icon. Bug fixes on AI, Competitive Play are also patched in this update together with the heroes and the maps.
