Does Overwatch 2 Running into a Vision Problem
Ode to Overwatch: Overwatch 1 Solutions May Be the Answer to Overwatch 2 Problems
We just had a hard Junker Queen, JOATs, meta, which was really similar to GOATs.
So now that they’ve added how Overhealth gives ult charge, this makes Wrecking Ball a terrible pick as it’s a lot of free ultimate charge for the enemy team.
Should he not have shields instead of Overhealth then? Back to how he was in OW1? But even if not shields, just not give ultimate against his temporary health.
I know it’s not the biggest aspect as to exemplify the problems to solutions ratio, but similar to how Junkrat got his trap back (not that it wasn’t ever not easy to play against) some aspect of OW1 will always remain, perhaps even for objective reasons.
For example, even if people hated Cassidy’s flash, its removal has stripped away what gameplay-identity he had.
Similarly, with Sym who feels less impactful without her change up, or Hog still without any effective tanking abilities, or Pharah who simply does less than newer heroes and is also counter by them, or Moira who still lacks enough oomph to add value.
