I got access early - this Season 4 patch will go live on Tues April 11!
Extra thoughts for Brigitte: The instant +100 armor lets you live through burst (and it's healable since it's a health pool increase) plus the bash stun are way more impactful than the wider shield.😰
whatever happened to no more stuns in ow2? 😭
As a brigitte main, I'm so happy for this buff and I don't care if I die to it a lot.
When they said a rework to brig’s ult I thought it was actually gonna change brig’s play style, replacing the “just use it to press the attack and provide over health around her and her teammates” (I find her old ult to be boring)
But in my opinion, this rework feels more of adding more to the ultimate instead of changing it entirely, which is somewhat lackluster and a bit too powerful for brig.
It was difficult to think of my thoughts over her change, but personally I wish there was something more unique into the ult that makes it way different then just adding something to her “providing over health and start attacking” ultimate.
Can she stun only while she has rally active or can she just stun now?
@@theeflanksinatra only when rally is active
I love how half of Brig’s ult now is just letting her do stuff she did all the time when she was launched in OW1.
7 seconds of overpowered nightmares for enemies
@@user-ls7ld5sm2b 10 seconds, actually.
@@jtroxler8 NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
…you “love” the things that sent OW1 into the dark ages?
She turns into a mini Rein with mini earthshatter for 10 seconds. Going to be hilarious playing her.
love how they say brig’s ult is for defense, when my team almost exclusively uses it for offense
The best defense is a good offense 😉
And with footage of brig wiping out the entire enemy team in the background
the speed nerf will probably help make it more defensive, but perhaps they should remove the speed boost completely. That way she's forced to use her ult defensively, whether it's to stop an ult or to protect a team that's very low health.
rally is not a defensive ult😹😹
This current rally is not a defensive ult at all lmao. It counters absolutely nothing and the only thing its good for is taking as much space as you can within the 10 second duration.
Now Brig feels more unique.
Good and earnings from timebucks...
Nice
Good
👍
Amazing
When Roadhog oneshot got nerfed I read a comment that said "If they keep removing oneshots just to stop new players from crying they'll eventually remove Sigma's combo" or something like that. He was right
Crazy because accretion is actually hard to hit compared to hog hook
@@bevvvy1374 they'll probably reduce Reinhardt's charge damage to 175 at this point 🤣
I mean they did it to Junkrat… his one hit combo is hardly even reliable anymore and that’s like all he does.. a terribly bad nerf to a hero that’s hard to gain value with in the higher ranks (diamond, masters, gm). Just saying that from a masters pov. 🤷🏻♂️
Don't act like roadhog one shotting people while being unkillable was skilled or interesting game design.
@@septimusaurelius7881 He wasn’t unkillable. Like much of the game, it required teammates. Or you to be good enough to bait him into making a bad play.
Or just play Sombra, she shuts him down the entire game.
2019- fixed a bug where ashe could not gain ult charge while BOB was active
2023- fixed a bug where ashe could gain ult charge while BOB was active

These are two completely different games, it is ow 2, not 1, why do you even try to compare it?

@@khajiit268 clown moment
@@Andrew-ch3xj are you aware of the concept of joke and sarcasm?
@@khajiit268 do not pretend your reply was "a joke and sarcasm". There's literally nothing in that comment that was a joke nor sarcasm
I love how half the changes in this season's patch are just putting things back the way they were before.
Ikr
Like I said on another video: This is what happens when you fire your lead hero designer.
@@danielkelsosmith Im glad they dont double down on poor choices. Means community feedback matters
@@danielkelsosmith weird way to advertise
@@danielkelsosmith who?
I never understood why Hog's ultimate can't push Dva bomb mech backwards. I think that's something it should do.
agreed.
If rein can charge it I think it's fair.
@@user-nn1fx1nc7e Plus hog can hook it anyway
ok
ok
Moira's fade in between her ult is like crazy buff. She is practically immortal
Honestly I'm amazed people never called for more nerfs for her. I play most healers I'll finish with like 2-3,000 damage and 10,000 healing. With Moira I'll finish with 9,000 damage and 13,000 healing while the other healers have 8k and our dps only have 10k-12k damage if that. Also she's slippery as all hell and her ult is monstrous when used properly.
@@VAFranky people never call nerfs for her because they've convinced themselves she's ass because there's so many terrible low ranked Moiras lol
She deserves that. Moira is a easy to use supp. But she is very weak when we talk about providing something for the team more than healing. She can kill people in low ranks or in high ranks if you have a very good team. But nothing else
@@gwenzhead566 says who? Moira was a banger in OWL
@@VAFranky Because all she has is healing and nothing else. No utility, no damage reducton, rez, immortality, or cc of any kind.
Removing map pool is the best change they have ever made
Season 3 map pool has given me stage 3 ligma.
@@BasicSneedEducation maps were terrible
@@BasicSneedEducation What's ligma?

Infinite match length pog
Yeah when I played her I usually just never ulted lol
@@KaiDub24 indeed i did same
@@KaiDub24 well that’s kinda dumb tbh
@@nuggle6400 it’s total mayhem. Literally an arcade mode where u get to mess around… Or are u gonna tell me how to play that too
Kiriko : I have heals that auto lock, I can tp to someone by hovering my mouse roughly in their direction if I'm in danger and I also have an immortality ability that is AOE.
Blizzard : have fun!
Ana : If me or my team is in danger I have to hit every one of my shots and my best ability is a really hard to hit , single target projectile, and I don't have any mobility
Blizzard : Well that seems a bit too easy to me
Don't act like Ana is worse than Kiriko
@@rex_tlouesg2910 Kiriko is extremely overpower, she have a lock heal, insane damage and range in the attack ability, have mobility, her ult is a op utility.
@@rex_tlouesg2910 uh, being worse than the best is just being second so YES she is worse ?
@@koroiobr1326 1. Ana's ult was literally the top ult b4 kiriko.....
2. You realize Anna has better atk range and general dmg correct..... (plus she's a hitscan vs kiriko travel time)
3. Anna quite literally has a lockheal as well with grenade (that is b.s enough to cancel others healing)
Don't pretend like poor old Anna has nothing going for her 🤦♂️
@@koroiobr1326 I'm not saying Kiriko isn't extremely powerful, but I'd rather have in my team an OK Ana over a good Kiriko anytime
If you go to the Patch Notes of June 2019 you can see a fix for Ashe stating that they fixed a bug that was prohibiting her from getting ult charge while bob was active
Overwatch 1 and 2 aren't the same...
@@wanted2657 yes they are, if it was a balance change, why weren't we told on the release of overwatch 2?
@@hiddensinix2767 they literally aren't, overwatch 1 had a shitty road plan that failed meticulously hence overwatch 2 scrapping all that shit and starting all over again. Stop with the nonsense (also theyve literally done multiple balance changes as is .....
@@wanted2657 same heroes, same abilities, same gameplay, same maps, the only thing different about ow2 is PVE (still unreleased) and the changes they made to some heroes (in the case of ash, no such change was listed)
@smort you're asking me?? Im not a game dev that can answer that question m8
As someone who doesn't really play Overwatch 2 anymore, I find it funny to look at these patch notes and see Mercy's heal rate be changed every single season.
and mercy's movement but not rez or Damage Boost what people initially wanted
@@zhidoc LITERALLY like I hate Rez rn cus it feels so useless in 5v5 and damage boost is the one aspect of mercy I like because of the ga nerf. If they reverted the nerf and changed dmg boost or rez I wouldn’t care.
@@bagelwbutter9605 same, I was just getting used with the 2. 5 sec cooldown and now they gotta be 3 second like I can't
edit: now that I think about it, if we go from value with other mobility abilities it would be like df punch as it had a 3 sec cooldown in s1 but it's worse in every aspect except in vertical and further than a 45 degrees mobility which is stretched but also just why
@@zhidoc them taking away one shots was a worse idea overwatch team killed itself
@@hotelmoscow8665 not really, it feels really anti climatic when you get one shot, specially when the guy fails like 5 times, hits once, and now instantly wins the fight.
I could have sworn when Ashe was released they had gaining ult charge while Bob is out as a perk of using her.
Blizzard has a habit of calling things """"bugs"""" that have existed for years with no changes.
@@dingusdangus9299 probably because everyone who worked on ow1 has left blizzard
I wouldn't be surprised at all, but she's also the only character that could do this before? So it adds up really
@@BelianTamashi wrecking ball too
@@dingusdangus9299 they even in 2019 fixed a bug that prevented her from gaining ult
These devs r smoking meth
Removing map pools is a good addition, they could keep the random lighting to be chosen randomly within the map rotations, just like old Rainbow Six
The Sigma change is really just so disconnected. Comparing Sigma's accretion and primary fire combo to Roadhogs chain hook that yanked you from your spawn into his one shot is nowhere close to the same thing.
In my 4 months of playing OW2, I have been one-shotted by a Sigma less than 10 times
But sigma has other things on his kit, road is just hook and a heal lol
Yea honestly the fact that ramatra is still very strong especially with an ana or kiriko which is literally every game, yet they nerf rein when hes finally been good for barely a season and they nerf someome no one has complained about on sig. Hogs hook was literally broken for over 6 years. At first it was literally broken but even after getting fixed, a gauranteed kill every 8 seconds on any squishy was absolutely dumb. Goes to show blizzard has characters that they favor or are just too lazy to redesign the charcters that break the flow of the game. Mercy being a huge example. She gets changed every patch but she will always break the game. Whatever dps has a mercy pocket will win 90% of the time against a dps that doesnt (excluding one shots). Including the fact that shes one of the easiest characters to play and most masters and above mercy one tricks can barely get diamond on any other role.
I think they nerfed him because that combo would be too good against LifeWeaver, they may bring it back later if LifeWeaver is over performing or Sigma is too bad, idk, Sig will still be decent imo
sure but more often than not if you got hit by a sigma rock especially close to mid range and wasnt already getting mega burst healed you were dead.
3:48 doesnt matter as teammates always wake the tank up instantly
that’s why you gotta scream “WHY” like I do
People are so stupid and playing Ana makes you see it. 5 seconds of no tank and a 4v5 or getting 50 damage on a tank? Obviously monkey see monkey shoot is gonna be the outcome
@@SlowStroking Ana NEEDS buffs not nerfs like why??????????? She needs literally any movement ability. Blizzard is so bad with this
Tbf if you gonna sleep then should call out, especially that projectile characters can't really react in time.
@@whyiwakeup6460 because i can deal with roadhog on her sometimes still, i think XD
The Ashe bug was in 2019 actually a patch to a bug. This 'bug' caused the situation of Ashe not gaining ult charge while BOB is deployed. Make a choice Blizzard!
Fixed the bug that fixed the bug that stole the ultimate charge that Ashe gained after deploying Bob.
😅
Yeah, is so stupid. Just say is a nerf, and even so. This is a bad move. Now many other dps are way better than her. Either ways bob is a easy counter ult. This is bs
You were wrong about 1 thing, Ashe didn’t always get ult charge while bob was out. A while ago she didn’t and when they added the ability to, it was also a bug that she wasn’t.
For your next Mythbusters video:
Does Brig's ult shield clank with doom punch/rein charge even if they don't directly collide?
Also, Is it possible to stun them with the edge of it and not clank?
Does Brig's new bash stop j queen ult?
Does torb turret target Life weavers tree or his platform? Do sym turrets? Does bob?
Moira now being able to fade out of reins shatter as a counter during coal is huge and terrifying
you're the first person I've seen mention that. very great point, underrated comment.
This is my LEAST favorite change. Moira already annoying af
@@teacup_media as a moira main, this is a treat. I can't wait. :3
Rein shatter, orisa jav, Ana sleep dart, road hog hook. All useless against Moira now
The only character I felt completly safe counting Moira was Rein lol. Was. Good thing I am a Moira main as well LOLOLOL
I love how one of the goals for OW2 was a reduction in Cc, only for them to continue to add cc buffs for the duration of the game.
As long as its only for Tanks/Supports its fine. Damage however should not have CC.
@@hardrada3534 and none of them do anymore thank god
@@ender7756 Mei technically does have hard cc via ult and soft cc via wall/m1 (slows are soft cc in other games). Sym turrets should still be able to slow targets in it, which does count as soft cc. Soft cc is okay in of itself, hard cc is also fine if its an ult on dps (imo). Pharah boop counts as soft cc, but no one really ever uses it for that purpose.
@@astupidlylongnamethatstoolong Sombra can hack movement abilities, so she counts too.
Ultimates having cc is fine imo
Investing an whole ult to stun someone shortly is fine. Its an Ult
I like how you initially showed the stun with a 2 second cd and then in the actual gameplay it’s 5. Kinda creates a panic when people see it in 2 seconds lol
Everyone getting buffs and all we ask for is to give genji his ammo max back
Mercy getting a change nearly every patch is just telling.
+- 6 years to tweak and balance 6v6, throw all that work in the dumpster to justify a "sequel" by making it 5v5. This is the result, chaos, a shitty ass game
Lmao
she was considered the most balanced support in S1, only got nerfed because Sojourn needed her and now bliz cant make up their mind on what to do with her. just bring back S1 Mercy ffs
welp it seems no matter what they do someones going to be upset with mercy
@@ovencake523 because they have no clue how to treat her. they either give her something that feels bad to play against, or something that feels bad to play as.
The moira fade buff is SO OP, for those who don’t play support, imagine cas being able to roll while high nooning
I can no longer save Earthshatter for a reliable kill on enemy Moira while she‘s ulting bc now she can just fade out of it :(
@@dab_u7185 it's not only shatter, now you basically can never cancel coalescence if the Moira player knows what they're doing, and also enables her to instantly "switch" from a defensive ult to an offensive/flanking ult (or vice versa). Huge buff
u have to force her to fade then ult her
Cassidy can cancel highnoon, and there’s no reason to roll since highnoon and roll have the same damage negation anyways.
@@dab_u7185 Ha suck it 😂
I don’t think I have ever seen brig ult used defensively, at least on a usual basis. It’s always popped to initiate a team fight.
Thanks for the video! I'm a bit sad about the Mercy changes it feels like they can never get her right but I like the Moira changes those will be fun :3
Man, playing Ana against ball and dive tanks is gonna be brutal
hampter will eat the old sniper alive
Yep. They’re enabling brig so much though, I will finally have to learn her even tho Ana is my fave support ever :(
nah they're only cutting it by a second and a half so you still have plenty of time. Also let's not pretend like it's a good thing that ana gets to completely shut tanks down simply by existing.
@@Tsundemo i know,but ana's sleep dart is like 12 second cooldown(i think) in my opinion a solid 4 seconds instead of 5 is better
@@russiandog6889 12 seconds for a cooldown that is essentially a guaranteed kill on any squishy and can guarantee kills on many tanks is pretty short lol. that half a second barely changes anything for the ana and only makes things better for the tank players. Ana has been too strong for too long and other heroes have been scapegoated by ana players. As an ana main I'm glad to see she's getting at least somewhat of a skillcheck.
"This rework is intended to keep it as a defensive ultimate ability"
Right, because players are gonna use her shield bash stun defensively. The definitely won't become more aggressive with it.
Its because when genji pops blade, brigs would try to ult defensively and die because rally's armor over time was too slow.
So now if Genji blades, she instantly gains 100 armor, and just cucks him with bash which a huge hitbox and stun.
Reminds me of playing release brig where I could pop rally and run into the enemy team 1v6 and win. I climbed 2 ranks in one week
@@FleetAdmirable Balanced *Kappa*
@@FleetAdmirablethat's actually a really good point, the more I think about it previously pretty much the only way you could use it was offensively because the extra health was so slow, it couldn't stop any damage ult anyway so you needed to use it for offence
But now with the changes you can actually shut down some damage ultimates, you can stun reaper out of his ult, potentially stun and book back a genji ult, im sure it will be used offensively but it can actually be used to decent effect as a defensive ultimate
reminds me of the april fools patch notes just last week, don't remember for who but they were like "we made this change for defensive purposes so please please don't use it offensively"
this is going to be the exact same thing
Does brig's ult refresh her shield health or does it just add 450 shield health?
Yeah that Ash one is really weird. Shes felt strong but not oppressive, so its kinda comin out of nowhere. And Bob is a relatively high-cost ult, so its kinda unneeded. Idk, i hope they reverse it or keep it consistent with other characters like KarQ said
Yeah I feel like Ashe was fairly balanced in most ranks, this change feels funky
No
I still think ashe should he able to move Bob by clicking the alt button again at the direction you want him to go.
I agree I feel maybe the change could’ve been she gains less ult till Bob is gone since KarQ had a good point that other characters shouldn’t be able to build ult as well when they use theirs. But we’ll see how it works out this next season im just happy for the mercy healing nerf tbh.
@@zercherspecialist127 great input 😂
The addition of new experimental and community made maps into arcade is actually really cool, if at some point OW2 gets an official map editor that would rock
If it does at some point, hopefully someone makes Tuefort
Can you imagine the top 5 maps a season have a chance of being made into a real map?
I say top 5 because I'm sure enough will just be like "VALORANT in OVERWATCH"
@@AriesZero Please don't
it's a bit wonky if an effect have a different duration depending on who gets hit. (ana's dart) Although more balanced (?), I think this might introduce new problems.
nope. it's gonna be pretty much the same as always it's just a little less time that the tanks get stunned for.
I just wanted them to make it so that Brigitte could shield bash in any direction, especially upwards so she can better position herself to heal teammates who are out of LoS, or to reach higher points to escape or flank
She Is not a main healer and not a flanker, She brings utility for the team, this change Is more in role for her
But physically how would an upward shield bash animation look
@@ToastyTheGamingToaster It would just be similar to Genji's forward slash ability, albeit with less range and damage, and obviously doesn't provide a cool down reset if it produces a kill.
And this is why we should never let the community decide of balancing.
@@vivelespatat2670 Not quite sure how it is particularly unbalanced, given how many other support characters have far greater mobility in almost every way
The most frustrating thing for me is that someone being pocketed by Mercy literally could not die
As long as that changed, I don't care how strong she is
Nah, with her healing buff both her and her buffee won't die
@@ThornsDroighorn they will though, healing was increased by a lot for targets under 50 percent health, I think now she won't feel as frustrating to go against
@@ThornsDroighorn she lost the healing boost if under 50%
that indirectly nerfs her passive too
Its your problem. I like pocket Ashe/Cree
just....just kill the mercy first?
There is also a little change : ramattra now has his fists golden in nemesis form ( if u unlocked gold weapon of course)
after seen the intro I had to check if this was uploaded on april first
Moria is now truly a DPS hero
No she isn't she can be both really, it all depends on how you play her
@@progaming-ok8tq she is tho
Shes both lol, you need to dps to recharge. Shes a support hero with double sided playstyles
@@andrewsfoglia6437 i love how theres always comments like this. no shit shes both, she always has been, but now she has so much more potential to just go pure assassin during ult.
@@SkorpioVenom the community plays her like a dps character already, now with this buff it's guaranteed
I feel like the Sigma rock nerf wasn't really needed, since getting a stun wasn't always a completely guaranteed kill. In fact, there was a ton you could do to counter & prevent it
Sigma got mythic skin, y they Nerf him i have zero idea???
They buff his stun
Sigma was pretty much the most balanced tank in the game and the devs hate balanced hero’s sooooooooo
Way to consistent tho most of the time you can kill a 200 hp by yourself which he shouldn't be able to if hog can't do it.
@@SherryDC No, unlike roadhog you don't pull the enemy right in front of you and render them immobile, you actually needed skill to pull off the combo as it required two direct-hit volleys ontop of the rock, which enemies could counter with the lag time inbetween your volleys and the rock with a shield, stun, or bodyblocking. Its much more like a widow one shot (even harder to pull off than her) instead of roadhog. It wasn't needed at all.
I like the blue map you were playing on... Looks neat. I wish they'd release it like that and make it like a cyber vaporwave map.
I wanted Brigs healing system to work like Torbs OG armor giving skill where you throw it on the ground and ppl can pick it up.
ahhh i remember those days. back when torb's ult was just feeding himself and his turret crack. he was more supportive back then than he is now. good times
Crazy how if you bunny hop or boost during GA, the cooldown is now LONGER than last patch
Yeah it's insane. Devs trying to make it look like it's a buff because the normal GA cooldown is now 1.5 seconds, but it's a massive nerf! Very frustrating changes for us Mercy players :(
@@disruptor6550 it took me to understand the nerf bc of how worded it was like "the jump and crouch cancel active ability state duration " like couldn't they just say the time for the cooldown to begin or something
Oops! Gotta make those low ranks DPS happy!
@@vivelespatat2670 oops they can't learn to aim correctly, I am a bronze dps and a gold support, as dps I play with higher ranked people in qp which in turn gives higher ranked players or just better players in general on the enemy, I can hit a mercy who is being a jumpy dodging moth 8 times out of 10
LifeWeaver mobility and volley's ability to chase a kill, his troll potential and saving potential, GigaBrig with the big 750 shield, Moira going literal instant transmission Kamehameha on a whole team, support players gonna LOVE season 4 😂
Been a Brig player since season 1. The power creep is real. This season is going to be interesting.
Me coming back from Season 1: 🥰
Unless they play Mercy!
@@strangejune naah as RAMATTRA I'm gonna shutdown brig ult with just punching.
@@IronMan-jj2fd till you realize she can now take the punishment and the bigger shield means she can just wait for your timer to run out XD
The brig buff is clinically insane. If she isn't nerfed by the mid-season patch I'll be surprised.
Hopefully Genji won’t have another nerf… Now his blade not weaker anymore but doing same dmg as McCree’s grenade
I really hate that Ana change. Not because I think it’s a huge nerf, but because of how inconsistent it sounds. I don’t like when values are different depending on the heros you use them on.
Yeah agreed it’s just going to make you shift priorities on who to use sleep dart on from now on.
Agree, nerf the sleepdart for every target.
as a lucio main, i 100% agree. let me BOOP
Completely agree. I get the idea behind it, but the fact that only Ana is affected by it is a wild inconsistency. As KarQ said I think it should affect other abilities like the spear or Sigma's rock so it doesn't feel so inconsistent. But who knows, maybe this is just the first step and they're planning on addressing those other abilities in future.
Yeah, just make tanks have cc resistance
They didnt touch doomfist.
THEY DIDNT TOUCH DOOMFIST
For reference: Brig’s combined shield+hp during ult is only 50 points lower than Roadhog’s hp during total mayhem. With armor absorbing more damage than standard hp she has more total hp than an 1100 hp roadhog.
Except her shield is a bigger hitbox then roadhog and roadhog has access to insta 350 hp heal
4:00 I kinda like the idea of a tank passive that reduces CC duration, but CC is so important to keep Doom and Ball in check so I wouldn't buy in to the idea just yet.
I mean we could keep it and just make those two squishier. Not that blizzard would do anything that makes that much sense.
Dang, maybe they should make Doom a DPS instead to compensate for that.
reduce ball regular health if that ever becomes the case, doom should probably be fine
Ball needs a good player behind him to do anything and doom just sucks
@@forklifted454 bro doom has 450 hp, How do you make him squishier without being so bad
As a genji main I am horrified of brig and moira even more than I currently am. Moira is a menace in low elo and her new ult buff is going to punish us even more 😭
Buff genji
just seems like a buff to bad players relying on Mercy/Moira/Brig to climb elo, nothing new tbh.
@@HotCheetostain literally
it doesn’t make sense to me why they create a flanker like genji who is meant to kill supports then nerf him nd buff supports so much to where if ur not playing a dps that can provide good and constant dmg ur jus not gonna kill and genjis burst dmg is significantly worse now he’s literally tickle dmg to supports now
@@astral9807 everyones saying its a bad nerf.
thanks for the summarize! i love that they took the feedback from players and get rid of map pools :)
how are you able to access the new changes? is there a public test server?
Baguette's new shield is a step towards the Rein combo shield from the OW2 trailer
I kind of wish there was a special thing where they could combine like in the trailer and have one really strong shield for a bit.
I think you meant Bridgett.
@@EchoBoomer1987 I meant Baguette 🥖
@@LiL_Miss_Fiasco Brajeet!
That's what I was thinking too
i really wish we kept JQ's shout change and a version of doomfists charged slam(ie give it pop up from ow1) from the April fools event. JQ in particular needs a lot of help, its hard to find a reason to pick her other then boredom.
I think the area bleed would be an awesome idea, you'd just have to nerf bleed a tick to keep it competitive if you did that
@@vopcracker3193 nerfing bleed would defeat the purpose since JQ's problem is maintaining regen/survivability. as it is rhog(whos also terrible) makes her obsolete simply by being able to survive in many situations that will kill JQ.
all you need is 2 changes. 1 is the shout bleed. and 2 is adding to the axe a horizontal projectile similar to fire strike. that allows you to take advantage of the cd mechanic more reliably and justify the horrific start up it has.
your still 450 health, no dmg mitigation, no mobility. and even with those additions i dont know what tank JQ would be able to beat. but at least she wouldnt be a throw pick.
note i mainly play doomfist and hamster.
Which is the map you're playing in, with the blank walls and the big flying fishies?
But they’re not reducing Dva mech calling which is an insta kill on any 200hp character
Thank you for adding the before/after texts when you have split-screen footage!! It makes it super clear which is pre- and post-patch :D
I dunno about anyone else but the fact they're removing map pools FOR THE SECOND TIME after re-introducing it in OW2, despite low popularity, says everything you need to know Blizzard's perception of what the players enjoy.
i am so excited for these maps to finally come back
if u slingshot with ga during the slingshot activate valk and it wont reset. U can cancle ga when slingshot but it wont reset the cooldown :(
Wait, the concept of fanmade maps is INSANE!
Actually though. It needs to be talked about more.
@@ashfaaqashraf9046 I bet there will be a community map making contest and the dev team will turn one of the fan made maps into a real one with all their fancy assets. Such a hype concept
Would love to see custom game creators pop off with custom maps to accompany it
didn't paladins already do that back in 2018
I'm confused. What is this map? There is a way to create custom maps now? :O
UPD: Found the info, that map wasn't made by the OW's community, it was made by OW's dev by reading players' suggestions on live.
I love your videos and how you go into detail with balance changes while showing the differences with gameplay. Great job, KarQ!
I put my hamster in a sock and slammed it against the furniture
@@TippyHippy poor sock
3:43 - Ahhhh I know that pain only too well.
Does anybody know about the shadow buff that Genji got??? He got a buff to the damage that has Shera can do if you had one volley of Shuriken to the head dash through it’s now a killer used to leave your target on five health.
sigma has been buffed and its disguised as a nerf, that extra 20 dmg from the pop of the spheres make it pretty neat to bounce kill someone, i played yesterday, and tbh i've noticed the buff heavily influencing my matches
I get the Ashe one for consistency, but... they didn't make it consistent. As you stated in the video, multiple other heroes are able to build ult while using their (still active) previous ults. Again I understand why they wanted to nerf this capability, it makes sense, but why did they only single-out Ashe?
Why not a reduction of ult charge, like a 30% slower ult charge rat, its a nerf and you can still built some ult
@@lucienhaulotte4049 30% less ult charge for bob?😂 naahh 30% would be hell too much its better this way
I understand Ashe was a bit too strong but putting such a penalty on bob makes this ult from one of the best ult in the game to ok tier.
@@artimist0315 puts it from ok to pretty niche
It’s kinda not “multiples”, tho?
It’s just Ball.
Right because sigma’s one shot (with a cooldown) where you actually have to aim was a huge issue while Hanzo spamming M1 in a choke point is perfectly okay.
This is annoying as hell the fact that they nerfed him and then come out with his skin is bs
they probably see sniper heroes as a different kind of one shot
snipers being oneshots is kind of their identity to some extent
Fr man. Should just put someone in critical. Otherwise any headshot should kill logically. Bullets are bullets.
have you ever seen the damage difference between a hanzo and a sigma? its usually 10K sigma damage to like 6K hanzo damage lmao
Welcome to the club.
They nerfed roadhog to the ground too
Oddly enough the only thing I don't like is moira's ability to fade during ult. Even though the ult isn't going off during fade it's still significantly busted
That new map reminds me of the VexNet in Destiny 2
Love your patch update videos. They’re my go to when an update drops. The videos are clean, precise, clear, and most importantly, straight to the point.
i feel kinda concerned as a brig main, if she sees too much play she will get giga nerfed again and shes weird mechanically so a lot of people will under perform with her despite high perceived power. i love her power level currently, its a bit niche but great at countering low burst dive. if everyone runs brig its gunna be a problem
Same same, I main her and I am afraid that people are now going to flock and attack her especially the higher ello players (understandably so)
Enjoy it while it lasts
As a fellow brig main, I feel like these buffs are going to be insane in a capable players hands. I see another nerf again in the near future but who knows, maybe it'll actually work out
Yeah, Brigitte was already awesome, when I played her I got the same Healing as the other healer, and the same dmg and kills as the dps, It's like having another dps who also heals nice.
@Silas I'll still play her too because she's my favorite, but the future doesn't look bright. I was hoping she wouldn't get buffed again but the extreme nerf is inevitable now.
Just data mined some stuff for season 5.
Next patch update is a pair of training wheel sent directly to every OW2 players door.
I feel like Brig's changes suit her style way more, and I do like the idea of knocking back multiple enemies now, but stunning them again? Not so sure about that part! Really looking forward to having all maps in rotation again, that's a huge change.
This brief stun is more like a good "turn off" to channeled abilities rather than paralizing your opponent long enough for something meaningful.
@@MrKlausbaudelaire being able to stun through rein's shield is so OP
@@queueeeee9000 It's an ult though, it should be strong
And its not like Rein is weak to brig, he bodies her the rest of the time forcing her back with the threat of his hammer. If she tries to proc inspire Rein can punish her by pushing her with his own hammer.
@@hardrada3534 if rein can't shatter through brig shield, why should brig get to stun through rein?
@@queueeeee9000 Exactly. Lmao. Brig ult also stuns multiple targets with ease, behind the safety of a now buffed shield. Rein ult he literally becomes vulnerable and hope they dont counterplay him by blocking with shield/stunning him before that.
They “reverted” her ga cooldown only if you don’t super jump or slingshot which you do 99% of the time you use ga so her cooldown is basically the same. All this patch did for mercy is take away her healing buff and trick everyone into thinking her movement was reverted.
as a mercy hater, I see this as an absolute win.
Medic from TF2 should replace mercy.
@@user-kv4qi1dv4m BRUH i want to look at ubercharge in this game xd
Personally would love my lvls back as progression. I'm not into the battlepasses and also not into ranked so what am I playing for?
I thought the reason ogereatch 2 has one les tank was to prevent double sheild, what were they thinking for brigg
Prepare for the Brig meta V2, everyone, 'cause she's basically invincible as long as she's got Rally now.
Well considering how little protection she has in base OW2 I’m excited for the change. She’s finally viable again.
Tbh, you can only shield bash max twice in a Brig ult, and you’ll get two or three rallies a game, so max 6 mini stuns a game ain’t too bad.
It's funny because in previous patch notes Ashe wasn't able to get her ult during bob and guess what? They fixed a "But" that didn't allow Ashe to gain Ult Charge when Bob was on field.
The Mercy 'buff' does not make up for her healing lose. Not only have you now a harder time saving players but also struggle to stay alive yourself cause the cooldown only got reduced by 0.5 seconds. And that does not make up for the changes. Or I hope I am wrong and will enjoy playing Mercy as much as before, but I really doubt that...
The Moira's fade in coal is gonna be the horror-
Sigma was literally the only character in the entire game that was perfectly fine where he was and didn't any changes at all. He's only good on certain maps, he was never good on ALL of them.
Devs are braindead and I believe they just hate having a balanced game
I can't believe we're going to be going through an entire season with insane Brig change.
I love how the stun from Brig’s ult isn’t even the annoying part, it’s how much armor she gets lol.
It’s nice to see supports getting buffed moira aside it’s really hard to have an answer to getting hard dived or flanked and one shot throughout the games in my rank
that community map could be huge, and a step towards it being a fully supported feature with a map editor for everyone to use, really cool stuff
is Bob considered a tank or dps in relationship to sleep duration from ana?
Great video as ever. Thank you so much for these KarQ. S4 Moira - Brig meta then? :(
I kind of don't like that her shield only goes from three-hundred to seven-fifty while gaining that massive width. Seems like it'll only be easier to break now because of it catching more damage. Half the viability of brig was the fact that most people couldn't really afford to target you and would instead ignore you. I also don't know what blizzard is talking about with it being a defensive ultimate. Its used to push a charge as a team, not to hold the line.
yea but she can stun now, legit broken meta coming up. if you're a brig main and not gm1 next season, iq diff
@@aaz5810 She can only stun if she has her shield. This what I'm saying, won't matter much if it's melted
It's called balance
@@shadows_starhonestly im glad it can be melted better bc as a support main who plays kiriko n mercy, brig mains ALWAYS come after me n i end up not being able to go to my teammates bc she's focusing me n kills me while my team completely ignores their healer dying beside them
@@shadows_staron another note i hate the shield being able to hit multiple ppl at once. But maybe if she stuns me n my teammates they'll finally focus her
this popped randomly in my recommendeds. havent played OW since a year after the launch of 1, and i'm surprised. how are they already in Season 4 of OW2? isn't it less than a year old?
Does the removed map vanity include Temple of Anubis returning?
What did ashe do to blizzard, getting the ult charge during bob was a huge part of her kit, now its gonna feel like your only gonna get bob like twice during a match
Blizzard looked at the absolute shitshow that was desperately trying to patch Brig and GOATS during OW1 and suddenly decided that they wanted to bring it back with just one less tank 🤡🤡🤡
Facts at this point that should just being back her ability to one shot a tracer 🙄
Nah the fact that you’ve only got 1 tank on each side instead of THREE should make this not an issue ig….
@@nuance6631 please bring this back istg not even joking
found the PTSD overwatch player
i heard what i thought was a throwaway line between rein and brig about making brig's shield bigger... i see you blizz...
Personally I don't feel that where he says at 1:59 that Ball should receive the same change as Ashe. Bob is basically another tank and can roam actively. The mines are avoidable and droppable in one spot, and seeing as how they stay active unless touched for a LONG time, enemies will avoid, etc.
BLIZZARD PLEASE LET SOMEONE ELSE DO THE BALANCE CHANGES 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Not a single Doom change…
Brig stunning through barriers in ye olde days was an absolute pain. Not sure that aspect coming back is good even if it is Ult-only. Will admit - it still sounds fun to go GigaBrig.
I kinda see her as the Genji for supports now.
Bashing through barriers has been in the game since season 1, you mean stun specifically?
Indeed.
i think OW should make it so when brigitte and Renhairt deploy their sheilds it will combine into the shield they used in the cinamatic Zero hour that would be cool
