Thanks, excited for the stream tomorrow. I live in Aus rip
very educational karl
16:42 I think that's supposed to be a buff
@@Favmir it's a nerf 12% more ult cost
@@illusion2106 literally says cost reduced. That's a buff. It's cheaper. Lower cost.
From this video, overwatch 2 basically just:
- increased health
- decreased damage
- no more stun moves
Sounds really stupid
Sounds like stuff you can just patch into the old game
@@ao8319 then dont buy -.- hatee
@@ao8319 its for makething reason, new game more money, more visibility, being talked about instead of a game rework
Okay discord mod
I find it strange that Bastion’s ult is called just “Artillery” and not “Configuration: Artillery”
Fr
Day 1 patch: Renamed Bastion’s ultimate to “Configuration: Artillery”
It's also crazy how I'm maiden less even though I'm such a nice fella
It’s rushed
@@phenisaba 😂
I love how the devs were just like: “right we dont want self heal what do we add instead?” A36 TACTICAL GRENADE
With the loss of the Tank Mode ultimate, the grenade is huge for the rocket-jumping enthusiasts who wanted to play Bastion.
im still salty that they are doing that , the self repair function was a core part of the bastion units design and lore. they really like screwing up what already works fine.
@@tacoman487 Bastion didn’t self-repair in the cinematic or lore. Self-Repair also didn’t do nearly enough to keep me alive as Bastion. Better mobility to move with a team, and some burst damage on demand, will probably do more for Bastion’s survivability.
@@tacoman487 I feel like the changes to Bastion will be justified as changes made by Torbjorn himself, so I may be wrong, but I think the lore will stay the same.
@@tacoman487 who cares about Overwatch's lore at this point.
According to the fact that Reaper's and Moira's fade capacities can still be used in Zarya's or Sigma's ult, if you time it right, I guess you can avoid taking damages so it does kinda work in a way
Adds a layer to things more nicely in my opinion. Rewards skilled gameplay.
Huh never thought of that thanks
@@timothyparham5064 I disagree
No it’s literally because the removed most of the CC so they can’t have what little CC they have be countered by Reaper and Moira for free. It’s just a simple gameplay balance
true. you just have to time right
Soldier actually recieved a nerf
His gun now sounds like a helicopter instead of a cool laser gun
Role passive is a big buff to some characters. Like Ana now heals without needing to use nade. Thats really nice.
More braindead game. Ana was one of the few skillful healers
Was? How does a passive self heal change this?
@@Crooshka Is in the name itself. Passive - you do nothing, and something happens. The game play for you
Not necessarely a bad thing, but its objective that is less skillful
@@omarleone99 its not that bad, granted ana should be vulnerable because of here style of healing
i mean tf2 crossbow medic also has passive healing and thats not braindead
@@rotmgpumcake but tf2 only has 1 healer it does not make much sense how Ana can self heal, only Mercy and Lucio have it when it makes sense for them. I understand its for gameplay purposes, in the role Ana plays she shouldn't need to take that much damage to begin with.
This is a neat little update for Overwatch. Glad these updates are free little tweaks to the original game and Blizzard isn't trying to sell the same game twice or something crazy like that.
Why would you think something like that in the first place, they made so many changes to the game like how they got rid of 6 player comps and now only 1 tank is available.
@@charlestealeaf2419 These updates could have been done in a weeks time by a competent dev team.
Oh wow it took them 4 years to release a small update after the game died and buried in the ground
@@charlestealeaf2419 bro all of this literally could of been released as an update. they're just doing this for the money.(ALSO remember this took them 4 YEARS to make) jus shows they did this for the money
isn't it free tho? the PvP ?
I like the removal of a lot of the CC abilities, means a healthier game where you aren’t getting cheesed at random. But with the removal of a lot of CC doesn’t this just mean Dive comps are gonna be like super oppressive with nothing to stop their momentum.
Feel like people might remember why they added a stun healer hero like Brig in the first place
Well, considering the most annoying bs included both mei freeze and mcree stun, I would say it is a good change lol.
Exactly. This is yet another example of how this dev team are completely lost, they didn't predicted the double shield issues, remember when Symmetra suddenly became a goddess when Sigma was released? Doomfist was even more capable because the players were abusing double shields, etc.. A couple of months later, the solution: paper shields, lol They can't predict two steps forward, it's hilarious. Looking at these changes, characters like Tracer and Genji will have a easy time harassing the opposing team without any kind of direct counter
@@RRRRRRRRR33 i feel like the game will play like shit without cc. youve got all this mobility heroes and no way to stop them.
If you dont want to be attacked in a video game just dont play?
Im worried that no CC would mean that a lot of the mobility based heroes will be harder to counter
Genji is insanely strong now that there's so few ways to stop his reflect/ultimate, I think that's why he didn't get any significant changes because they knew he'd get way stronger after all the CC removals.
@@Napstablooky As someone that has struggled with tracers im more worried about tracers now lol
Ana is fucked now
As a mostly mobility picking player, I have only this to say: HA, OUR TURN!
@@Alan181197 her nerf is actually pretty significant, sombra and genji are the ones that look superrr annoying for supports
That content team really ripping to get a super polished video out in ~8 hours post beta launch. Impressed!
yet

rytyry
Zaryas not gonna be able to fill the one tank role, she's a good dps/tank hybrid but she's going to struggle as the only tank on a team, especially with only 450 health
yea im gonna miss having two tanks. I feel like the extra pressure on the one tank to hold objectives will be a lot less fun.
I dont really like the fact that they gave a hp boost to every tank and stuff like a big hp buff but they decreased the damages of many dps and a lot of tank killers wont stand a chance against roadhog he can just outheal them:D
@@juto8809 most shields seem to have been nerfed, only right for a health buff i think
11:26 In OW2, Mei’s Endothermic Blaster now pierces through enemies, which basically makes her a better Symmetra lol
keep in mind that the new meta will affect some of the DPS who didn't get changes... less shields will affect Hanzo and Genji for example, or even Torb's turret.
Also they all get a new passive :10 % speed boost which is huge on heroes like Sym
IMO genji just got nerfed even harder. Correct me if I’m wrong, but considering the survivablity of most characters now, and the fact that there are less players on both teams, flanking supports will be much harder. Both genji and tracer are just really bad now. I’m ok with tracer being bad, but genji is even worse than before.
Genji has less shields to deal with but also cant farm blade off tanks as there’s only one of them now, they only generate 75% ult charge, and most of them have been buffed in a way that they are able to fend off harassment like genji’s much more efficiently. He’s been hard nerfed by the meta on that note
@@Joseph69923 I don't understand all the people coming out and being happy that Tracer has taken a knock. The game was meant to shift towards a more FPS-based game so having the fundamentally best and highest skill-ceiling hero played less isn't exactly a good start
@@chobanimoncher407 you know why. Tracer is annoying as hell lmao
Tracer with less CC? What a pain... I am happy If she come weak
Thanks for all of the comparison KarQ! This takes an insane amount of time.
Hello Fitzy!
Isn't sombra's coooldown not being reduced anymore when hacking healthpacks actually a nerf? It is displayed as a buff in the video
Wow They nerfed everything now its No fun anymore
More time than it took to develop Overwatch 2, for sure.
Dude is this it? Just ONE new hero and just balance changes/ reworks? Do they at least have new game modes or something
I played Overwatch religously in it's first 1-2 years. Coming back for OW2 and all those old characters I loved feel like garbage. It feels like we don't have a tank on our team anymore because everyone is playing Junker Queen who so far is out doing DPS in every match I've played. Not too happy about the balancing changes. Of course it's just a beta. But I would rather play the original Overwatch at this point.
Really well made video, ik slightly outdated with new character junker queen and idk if they made anymore changes. But really well done. 10/10
Sombra: torb turret it does not start attacking you even though you're "revealed" during a stealth hack.
however, moira orb does attack you if you're revealed during a stealth hack.
"SCIENCE!" -crazy woman in BL: The Pre-Sequel
what about symm turrents?
Does the orb take your invis?
@@jeffreylee3126 sym turrets (-n) do attack you during a stealth hack.
@@Crayz-tw2dz yes, taking damage from any source will remove stealth.
I was okay with Mei not being able to escape (and was glad her cryofreeze didn't just shatter on impact and deal damage in gravitic flux), but I don't really agree with Reaper and Moira not being able to. These characters are meant to quite literally disappear and end up somewhere you might not expect. They lose physical properties and should be able to escape those things. As a Sigma player, you should know not to flux those heroes unless they're on cooldown.
Edit: fixed my misconception about their abilities. Lore wise, Reaper breaks into a cloud of particles/gas. In game he is the same, but is completely invulnerable *AND* is said to be able to pass right through enemies.
Lore wise for Moira, fade is the perfected product of Reaper's wraith form. I haven't found anything else about it online. Feel free to look. In game, Moira can fade jump and *completely* disappear and reappear. (and might be able to pass through enemies?)
Particles affected by gravity is a common rebuttal but, as mentioned, Reaper and Moira can fade jump canonically. Thus, both of these abilities can be seen reducing the effects of gravity. Reaper cannot fade jump in game, but his "particles" are impervious to damage and player interaction.
Moira still disappears completely from sight. With her theme of stealing life force, I would assume she just disintegrates all of her cells and grabs new ones and recombines them to be her again or something.
Either way, gameplay-wise, not being able to escape Sig ult doesn't make any sense. Don't reward Sig for bad plays. Sure you can use the ability to dodge the damage, but now your movement option is gone.
Since we're on the topic, escaping Zarya's should also be a thing. It's described as a "gravity well", not a self-collapsing black hole. If it was a black hole, maybe I'd agree that those particles shouldn't be able to escape.
Moira a healer not dps so I'm happy with that
Easy heros shouldn't be buffed lol
Exactly, it makes playing your character feel awkward and I think they’re trying to get rid of that
@@ryangay4673 happy with what? I mentioned both a support and DPS. I don't think it matters what role you are, if you are no longer physically bound to the same realm as everyone else, I don't think a simple gravity shift should affect you, even if it already has ahold of you.
Edit: read the main edit. "no longer physically bound to the same realm" is very misleading and exaggerated, but it feels that way when you don't know the lore haha.
@@ryangay4673 Moira is dps
Bro. Thank you for this accurate breakdown. You got my sub just on your ability to be all info no bs.
Thank you for taking your time to make a amazing vid like this
awesome vid! thanks for making a reasonably long video, really didn’t wanna watch a 40+ minute video just for changes.
on x2 this video is maybe 9 mins, good length indeed
Ikr not pointing out any particular streamers/TH-camrs (Flats)
@@muzankibutsuji8919 I didnt get this
There isn’t 40 minutes worth of changes. It’s a single large updates worth
@@frankhorriganfromfallout2 thats why its going to be an update
Genji did actually receive changes but not numerical. His combo now works how it used to ages ago where you Rmb->melee->dash instead of dash->rmb->melee. The way the animation canceling works is different and more fluid. It’s actually pretty huge for genji mains
Melee can be cancelled again? Is it just genji or everyone else
omg like they aren't annoying enough
prob patched doesnt work anymore
I love the fact that there are now less stuns and Mei can't fully freeze anymore it gives him a huge advantage
@@HeyItsNate yeah and how to kill this flying *name* now with fake 100 fov and low sensitivity, if you never main a hitscan? It's just 1 fking dash and u dead
You know a sequel is good when you can sum every single change in it in 20 minutes 🤣
its not a sequel, its literaly the same game
@@schaab7203 why is it called overwatch 2?
@@Oceanandskylinevidss because their customers are dumb, and just putting the number two and some shit updates, make them hyped about it
@@Oceanandskylinevidss Marketing purposes, its just a patch named Overwatch 2 which would sell better than "a new free update for overwatch"
@@cybear7461 Which looks lazy as fuck especially when they had 6 years to think of all kinds of ideas but they said "naa just make the game feel different and slap a 2." This infuriates me beyond belief, and it makes it worst when people can't think critically just because it's a franchise they love. You can love something but also be critical. Yet you got people defending this shit
Played a ton of overwatch back in its peak time, around 2016-2018, absolutely loved the game, after school hop in to discord and I'd play with my friends until 4am, great times, now me and my friends have not played the game since then, I'm excited to play overwatch 2, and I'm glad I can get it for free since I have the first game, but I think the pve content has to be paid for
With OW2 being pushed to being 100% dive i think zen should have some movement changes. I mean, without discruption orb he's basically a training dummy for tanks and flankers
Good, can’t stand his orbs
He should be able to stand on his legs and start running as soldier 76
Why does Blizzard push dive so hard? I miss goats…
@@vullord666 goats WAS dive, what are u talking about
@@vullord666 RESpECT anD wORSHIp THE HOLy DIvInE GOD THE FaTHER OF JESUS CHRIST.
I love how their solution to abilities they don't want heroes to have anymore is giving them a nade. Why didn't they give doom and ori a nade too?
*Orisa* : Get behind me!
*Lobs a grenade that produces a shield, as everyone runs for cover*
they gave orisa projectile rocket punch
@@omaa11 rocket punch is already a projectile
Genji did receive a nerf, where usually when you ult you would dash upwards, cast your ult (resetting your dash) and dash to the enemy, your ult now doesn't reset your dash so the only way is casting with a jump or not dashing.
Bruh that’s absolute garbage of a nerf
But you shouldnt have done that anyway you are so easy to kill when falling of from a sky and if you dash to the enemy team you can anyway reset your dash by killing one player
Mercy looks so mad. She's like I'm done with this healing shit I'm gonna be a dmg hero
It should be noted that although Genji received no changes, he was indirectly buffed through all of the reductions to CC. He's a lot freer to go out and flank on his own, and it's a lot more difficult to cancel Dragonblade.
Haha, sleep dart goes brrrr
Also the 1 tank system is huge for him aswell
@@drucy. That's like the only CC they kept in, the cooldown was increased, and it's difficult for most players to actually hit it.
@@akpsyche1299 CC stands for crowd control. Dart hits one target so it's not "crowd" control
@@Ilya-wc1xv crowd control is the term for any movement impairing effect or ability in a game, be it single target or AoE.
Torb isn't entirely right regarding no changes. Instead of gaining extra armor during his Overload ability he only gets over health, which is a nerf.
Yeahh I think it was a dumb when he as of now is not good
It’s a double-edged sword. On one hand, his overhealth doesn’t grant ult charge, on the other, it’s not armor, so it doesn’t reduce damage by 30%
The targeting laser going from a faint red to a bright AF blue beam is also a massive nerf
@@Oxidys The hell you mean "faint red"? It's already a stark contrast to the environment
@@charKT-7461 I guess not everyone see's red as easily as others, specially when so many other combat effects are also shades of red. But it is a fact that a blue will be easier to see than a red. Please don't fanboi.
Thanks so much! Haven't had much time to play video games in general so this was super helpful! Excited to play ow2!
Nice video. Amazing work with the editing i loved it :). Keep up the good work man! HURRAY!!!
Whilst tank doomfist sounds fun, he looks really weak as a result and doesn't honestly look as fun to play. I stand firm that he should have been an all-melee character from the beginning. Scrapping his ability to shoot would be a trade for him doing a lot of damage whilst still being bulky.
It also makes no sense with how he's supposed to play, designed and is protrayed in the lore.
@@SaltCane I think it could have in OW1, but this time around tanks are meant to be able to tank. Doomfist lore wise could take a hit before, but he was also meant to hit things hard, not protect people. It feels like an odd decision when Bastion was already getting a rework that could work for tank.
@@epoch7661 He was designed to hit fast and hit hard with an emphasis on knocking enemies around, a tank playstyle just doesn't work since tanks especially in OW 2 are meant to be orientated around teammates and/or objectives which goes against his entire initial playstyle of chasing down enemies to punch the shit out of them.
It also makes no sense how a man like him would tank or protect his teammates, especially considering his personality.
Yeah taking away his jumping ability makes him look so much less fun to play.
With only 1 tank per team, ppl r gonna absolutely freak if their only tank is Doom
I'd imagine some heros that didn't receive any changes are probably going to get some in later patches or get full reworks, which is funny because Torb and Symmetra have already received so many reworks. Their designs are either worthless or too strong for whatever reason.
It's because a big chunk of their kit is largely skill independent. The turrets shoot with AI precision and decision-making, so they're the same at every rank. The torb turret that's ignored in bronze and silver is devastating, but the one that's focused instantly in GM is worthless. Placement choice changes, so there's a bit of skill involved, but that's far outweighed by the effectiveness of opponent skill (i.e., a GM might get 10% more value by being smart with placement, but the opponents subtract WAY more with their awareness).
No other heros are like that, so they "scale" in a different way than everyone else. Interestingly, the other heroes that are most like that are the most skill *dependent* heroes - balance Genji to be useful to scrubs in Bronze/Silver and he'll be fucking unstoppable in the hands of a t500. Balance him for GM and the metal ranks struggle to get value.
Balancing is actually a really tough thing in general - odd elements like turrets or big skill floor/ceiling divides make it that much harder.
@@RLplusabunchofdumbnumbers it's because symmetries limitless power! Lol no, I don't think they can come up with a clear vision for her and torb. (Last season I played was 17-25)
Maybe torb could've place turrets that u/team could man, making him the choke point king of sorts. And the gun will take bastions old stationary stats at ~70-80% effectiveness.
But sym! I haven't played in a while but I used to stomp lobbies with her. Shields, auto laser, regen, damage, teleport.... wrf even was this character lol. So if she's was going to be ultimate utility, they needed to nerf her damage. Which is her problem imo.
Her kit is annoying, so why tf does she melt on top of that? She's just ridiculous and her only counter is range functionally. So they need to decide to either make her a close ranged God and get rid of teleport and shields or keep them, but take off her damage. She can't be a slayer and utility, it's just a bad mix.
And definitely decreas her range. I'd say her and Mei should get 2-3 meters max.
@@KNGDDDE Well, for a "ridiculous" character with only one counter, Sym sure sucks in OW2. :D
Other than that one month they buffed her damage, she's been a niche pick for most of OW1 and now, with so few barriers on which to charge herself up, she's garbage in the dynamic, high mobility fights of OW2.
@@RLplusabunchofdumbnumbers I can only speak from a silver-gold perspective. She was a nightmare if the player could aim. Plus I was pseudo mailing rein
The players wants every character to have a answer to anything, torb needs to shoot at long range, close, a machine-gun mode and a escape tool... and you can say the same about hanzo, mccree and so many others. If this game is supposed to be a FPS with MOBA elements, haracters should be limited to their roles, torb, sym and bastion are supposed to be stationary turrets with limited mobility, but lots of firepower... but the players wants them to do everything. Now even Bastion has some movement gimmicks. This "sequel" looks more like a Quake wannabe than a MOBA, every character has hitscan and movement, it's Quake all over again in 2022, lol
This vid is actually very useful, thanks!
Great video editing and video UI :)
Zen def needs a buff of some sort. With there being 1 less tank to peel for him, less barriers & movement being king, his slow hover with no movement abilities or cc just makes him an easy target for anyone
1- smaller hitbox
2- defensive ability to deal with flanker
Let him use his legs.
At the same time with weaker barriers he may as well be a lore accurate widowmaker
Noticed how every single character in the roster has a movement gimmick and a hitscan, so Zen will be left behind indeed. Overwatch is not a MOBA anymore, it's like a Pixar reskin of Quake
I really feel like all characters should get some kind of change. It really feels defeating to discover that your character has very little different after waiting all this time between games.
or that your character just got sacked and is worse than in OW1
this is the first beta, there's probably more coming this year
Change for sake of change is bad. If a hero feels fine and doesnt need changes currently, why try to fix something that isnt broken? "Spicing things up" isnt a good excuse when it comes to balance
@@ZoroDPS exactly
@@ZoroDPS nah but at least give the customer something to make it feel like OW2. Not OW 1.5
thank you. just wanted to see the changes. people making this 30 minute to one hours raw videos taking AGES to explain characters. great video
Dope bro thanks for the info
Soldier got no changes?
Have you SEEN his beard? That's a change worthy of being mentioned everywhere.
All hail the magnificent beard
He looks like he’s 76 years old now
If a fucking beard justifies a sequel, I worry about the gaming community in general
@@KnownAsKenji Yeah, you gotta stop taking everything seriously
@@KnownAsKenji have you EVER heard of a joke? Jesus Christ
I'm surprised that Doomfist was the only DPS altered to be a tank!!! I honestly feel like Bastion and Mei would have made just as much sense (if not more).
Thats what im sayin! Seein mei as a tank wouldve been cool and seeing bastion as a tank legit just makes sense, isnt his ult a tank?
We’ll originally he was actually supposed to be a tank in overwatch 1, but for whatever reason changed him to DPS.
@@zachtalkssmack4470 They have a really bad habit of doing this. Sombra and Echo were originally planned to be support.
@@zachtalkssmack4470 It's because his OW1 kit would be way too oppressive for a tank.
@@GummyDinosaursify Why "bad" ? If they don't feel that the character design work for the designed role, isn't it better to change the character role than force it at all cost ?
Very good summary. Any other videos regarding maps and destruction objects on maps?
Nice outlay of changes. It was just minor changes, most was to tanks it seems aswell dmg and cc (especially on non tanks). Would be nice to see also outfit and look changes, thought tbh you actually would show that to lol. I like the changes seems to be more skill expression aswell make role uniqe respectfully. Orisa change seems fun. Doom interesting to. So all this changes makes game more healthier it seems. Heroes like Genji and Tracer seem to be more forgiving now, but same for other defensive and hero characters. it does seem tho that dps need to play better since tanks has gotten more hp. So gotta be feared. Changes seems healthy. I only wish tho that all heroes get changes not. Genji, Hanzo, Phara, Rodhog ect to make it more refreshing. Only gotta wait and see how it goes. Nice vid
another nice change they made for d.va is that melee during her boost no longer cancels it! so you can get in more than one melee during a boost which really ups her burst a bit
Although Zarya getting her cooldown on usage is a buff, the fact that she can only recharge 1 bubble at a time is a massive nerf.
doing some math because I was curious about nano doom: 105 damage total since it looks like 50% increase from powered up punch is applied to wall splat also based on soldier health, nano that you get 155 ish total on a massive aoe punch with a 1 sec stun when wall splat, enough time for a slam. Combine with 75 damage seismic slam after nano increase, and you get 225. Doom can deal 225 to an entire team with a convenient wall and slam, killing most dps and supports (not considering abilites) or at least making it an easy clean up for the team. Nano doom is going to be the play, especially considering he becomes a meat sponge with 50% damage resistance and shields out the wazoo when nanod if all else fails.
thanks for saying if its a buff or not. It really saves me the energy of having to think of all the abilities lol
I respect the amount of work that went into this so fast, thank you KarQ for always making these awesome informative videos!
More effort than it took to copypaste to OW2, for sure.
Thank you for this incredibly informative video without it being over 30 minutes, especially with timestamps! You're the best
Hanzo's storm arrows can now bounce off of walls once
it could always lol
Being able to cancel reinhardt's charge has been a dream of mine lol. It's going to be weird trying to relearn orisa for a bit though...
Man i wish I could play this, but I’m on console
Same, but Blizz won’t send me a fucking email and I’m pissed af
i wish i could play this, i’m on pc
The struggle
it might be coming to console in the future, probably for future games lmao
I feel ya there
I'm unsure how I like Doomfist no longer having uppercut if they kept his kit the same with making him a Tank with a health boost that would've been neat as he would've been a dive tank
Removing Uppercut so completely changes him I'm not sure I'm interested in playing him anymore. That mobility is so critical to the kit, it feels like a death blow. There still could have been a way to make him a tank and keep that mobility.
@@zonv5393 you still get the vertical mobility from uppercut with slam, you just gotta look up
I’m sticking to overwatch 1
he is a dive tank
@@specterknight430 these are all changes that will go into one, "overwtach 2" is essentially an expansion
Nothing like looking forward to Hog changes and seeing the change is a little more health and little more healing. Guess you can't really improve upon perfection.
Don’t know how I feel about reaper being unable to escape a grav anymore
He and moira can't escape grav anymore BUT if you time their ability right before the slam you still won't take damage
Great editing. I love the side-by-side comparisons.
liked how you showed the before and after and actual footage of the changes instead of just reading off the patch notes. good stuff!
When moira does her shift thing if you jump at the end it does a super jump, sorta like the new DPS character
They really made many heroes a lot harder to play. I hope that, as a Reaper main, I can keep up with Roadhog as the close range guy.
They seem to always make reaper weaker then bring him back to original/close to. Its super dumb, I might as well just play road-hog now and do the same or greater damage than reaper... it's so stupid...
@@norsehornmeadery382 I’ve been grinding comp this season and will have enough for another golden gun when the season ends, not sure I even wanna buy it for reaper anymore
Super informative and straight to the point as always. Great vid.
A 17% damage nerf to Tracer is huge, she has to hit every shot on a 200 HP hero without headshots to one-clip them now. Also Sombra’s Ult just seems like a better Sigma Ult in most ways now
I have a hard time comparing the ultimates, Sigma's ult lock everybody in place (can't escape) and deal delayed 50% total health in damage, Sombra's ultimate is 40% current health + 1s disruption + 40% more damage from Sombra. Of course, it seems easier to get value from an instant ultimate, but one does not seem to be a better version from the other.
I think you misunderstood new EMP. It deals 40% of *current* health in damage while Sigma’s deals 50% *base* health.
This means you basically cannot kill with EMP and it deals less dmg to low health targets.
It’s more an engage ability rather than a finish one.
Also Gravitic Flux is zone ultimate and grants a sort of CC.
I agree to an extend. He can still make people not contest with his ult, locks ppl in place and he can actually kill ppl with his ult. Sombra cant cause its 40% of their current health
Tracer needed a nerf of some sort. Removal of offtank = Tracer on your backline like flies on shit.
@@libertyprime9307 exactly that
For Moira’s phase ability when she is lifted off the ground you can time it perfectly to where when she is getting slammed you can phase and she will take no damage as seeing it does not disable the ability, idk I have not tested just a theory
Sym did get changes! Her turrets can now block things like roadhogs hook
So basically supports mostly got nerfs if anything. I really hope they will do some adjustments. I appreciate the devs effort to try and remove cc and reverse some powercreep and make the game more dynamic. But with what we have seen so far it will be very rough to play support with dive and flankers flourishing in the lack of cc. I dunnow how a Zen will ever survive
Yeah it seems like zen is going to be a free kill for any dive or dps.
It's called aiming have you heard of it ?
@@user-pf9jv1fl2n and how does that make support not rough to play?
@@lrainwater1608 It's people like you why Overwatch has turned into trash. Because you have no talent and cry and beg the developers to sugarcoat abilities that does the work for you. Taking out the element of skill. Hey devs plz nerf dps hey devs plz buff supports, hey devs healers and tanks need to have some sort of impact greater than dps. Because everyone wants to watch tank and support right. No one cares about support and tanks. No one wants to watch a support player or a tank player. We want to see dps command the battlefield as they should. With the only skill ceiling being aim and only aim.
I'm glad they nerfed them across the board. They're what made the game boring in ow1
actually hanzo did get another change.. his storm-arrows can now bounce 1 time off the wall, floor ,ceiling etc. so its kinda a mini "scatter arrow" now you know :D
Hanzo is now Hou Yi from Smite 😂
actually nice to know. I hated how they removed the scatter, ti completly ruined the hero for me.
@@alkair422 cause he’s not game breaking anymore 😂
I honestly completely forgot about scatter arrow. Lol
Subtle note:in overwatch dooms ammo genes from right to left but in overwatch 2 it’s left to right
Thanx Man
I just wanna add for D.va 00:35 her boosters now do not cancel when she melees, so it's a lot easier now to land the boosters+2 melee combo. In order to cancel boosters you have to manually cancel it.
actually you can (currently in OW 1) change it to holding ability, which makes it easier to cancel after a slight getting used to
Sucks that Mei got such a big nerf, I didn’t really think she needed it
if anything this nerf makes her more braindead than what people thought she was, as you can just W+m1 a whole lot easier in team fortress 2 terms lol
People wanted less CC, and mei was nothing but CC. The changes are good, not as creative, but still good.
Meu needed less cooldown and freezing faster not this huge nerf now I'm not even gonna play with her
well, for sure i will not miss players who make you the ice pop (cuz they cant even miss a shot with that freezing gun) and then walk hella relax towards you, then aim in the middle of ur eyebrows and proceed to sting you two ice spears deep inside your already frozen and tilted brain :’)
@@MrJazzso 😂 the freeze is only 1,5 seconds long and it's so slow to freeze that almost everyone can run away fast enough from any attack mei can give of
Her Ulti is even worse the only way she can actually freeze someone is if she uses the gun to freeze faster because even tanks have enough speed to run away as long as they are not on the center of it
good ass video man, very direct
That into song made me genuinely fear for my iem's life.
I love that they are making every character into soldier. OW2 will be like a brand new game 👍
🤓
agreed bastion is like hanzo and soldier had an awful child, but im to critical on the bastion rework so who knows
Right? Nothing cc's or is special anymore, all hitscan high mobility, looks boring as hell...
@@Adrygag My big problem is the lack of unique shields, now that there are none all fights just seem like a quake game
@@sotirisalexandroskontogian2394 🤡
At least Moira can still phase shift just before she hits the ground to negate the damage. She's looking pretty good overall, I'm looking forward to playing her again
Yea! And so can reaper and mei (with less to no timing needed). Glad they arent taking dmg atleast, cause it wouldnt make sense.
Still a tricky nerf to deal with, though. Usually when I get fluxed as Moira the enemy team does their damnedest to burst me down as quickly as possible before I can react with Fade. Having to wait that extra second to avoid the damage is potentially lethal on its own.
I’m not sure if this got added after this video but zen’s kick can now cause knockback to people
I think you also forgot to mention hit boxes tho I’m pretty sure genii for example is much smaller now, aka harder to hit so some of these characters did get changes that are only apparent for the enemies
Rip Mei. They literally nerfed every single part of her kit
Given what they're doing with the tanks, she might have been better off being converted into one. It would really only require some number changes. She'd get to keep all the parts of her kit that make her so unique.
@@MarkRynn i agree, it doesnt really feel like she has a place in the game rn
@@centraltime3680 She could be really fun as a tank.
And reaper can't do crap to tanks now
Good, mei is the worst
Orisa, Bastion and Mei were my mains in OW1 (or at least they were the most fun) and now all three are fundamentally changed in the way they are played. This really demotevated me when i first heard about these changes and i'm still mad about it. But i have to try them out myself once the open beta starts before i can judge them any further.
Well the way bastion and mei worked in ovwrwatch 1 demotivated ME from playing, im happy they changed theyr toxic abilities, orisa its looks like a buff onestly but i didt realy played her so maibe im wrong
@@marcoflorian5182 I don't like the loss of Orisas shield, and since there is only one tank per team i don't see her being picked over Reinhard (or Sigma). But we will see how good the javelin spin is as a defensive ability.
Oh and i will miss pulling people into death with the gravitation orb :(
I'm also not sure how to feel about Orisa's changes..kinda sad to be honest :/
@@blauerpudding9317 it would be acceptable of there were still 2 tanks to reduce shield spam, but with only one tank it feels to much like a nerf
@@nosysprat6170Oh yes you're right
I completly forgot about the fact that you can only play in teams of five..that makes it even worse!
Being able to cancel Reins charge is probably the best thing overwatch has ever added. Cannot tell you how many times I accidentally charged at someone and killed myself either by flying off the edge of the map or straight into the enemy’s group
That’s just part of the fun
Never thought they were going for a sequel for the experimental game mode
This is the kind a of video I want. Some visual and comparison from previous iterations rather then just TALKING. Thank you. I know it's more work and I hope you get more subscribers.
Thank you!
I’ve played a lot of road hog and it’s 2x as easy to one shot hook ppl in ow2 and that’s a massive change
Jeez, if there is any ability that didnt need to be made easier its the hook
sigma has instant shield no longer 2 second cool down, and has 2 rocks, and grasp is a bit larger
As a sigma main, this is music to my ears... Speaking of which, can you hear that music?
@@TheReverseFlashThawn That music... it's playing again!
@@StealthTheFoxz What is that melody!?!
yeah no
Remember that you are alone now. You will thus take double the damage frome more angles than usual.
FINALLY my days of being a Rein main are over! Look at some of those juicy changes. Doom as a tank, no longer to q as dps to have that arcade mobility fun and Orisa is no longer a turret!
@Sharkie I'm pretty sure that won't be an issue considering majority of people don't want to/can't play tanks. Also my queues as a tank are from 10 seconds to 2 mins max, while dps is always around 7 - 15 minutes. That would require a whole lot of new tank players for the queue to become long.
@Sharkie Tanks are dogshit for the most part I can guarantee it won't
@@westsidermetalhead4997 we still have to see about that, since tanks now are less "passive" and more action oriented
@@Dr_Hax I see that as an absolute win lol. OW is an FPS game not a tower defense, less double shield stacking please, yes, thank you. The single tank per team I dislike. I'm going to be a doom, orisa main now by the looks of it.
@@westsidermetalhead4997 i like the brawler approach too and i really like the new orisa and doom
Sojourn is probably a fav, I love movement mechanics
Never thought I'd hear Dank Pods theme song elsewhere.
I'm SO happy they reworked Bastion. I rarely ever play as them because I don't like the "sit and shoot" playstyle as them, but with their Assault Mode now should make me want to play Bastion more.
Couldn't agree more 👏
Doesn’t it kind of defeat the point of him now tho? Like I’m not sure what’s preventing you from just staying in assault mode
@@LeemVonNelly It has a cooldown of 12 secs if you leave it, and it slows you down when you are active on assault mode. good for fighting.
But if you get something thrown your way that requires you to get the heck out of dodge you are stuck to standard mode for 12 secs if you choose to exit the assault mode.
@@LeemVonNelly He's only in Assault Mode for a limited time, I think.
Edit: Yeah, it lasts 6 seconds and has a 12 second cooldown
He kinda feels like worse soldier ngl now he has cooldowns like everyone else, if you rarely played him you'll rarely play him now
oh man i dont think they should have removed Briggs Stun, that was like the only thing that would save her from getting her shield broken or dying
Ok, but she now has a 50 damage attack, so I think it balances out
@@DeathDealer_1021 not to mention that crazy distance increase
Moira = best DPS in OW2. With the movement speed increase making everyone twitch around her lock on beam and orbs get more done than most of the DPS heroes in the game. Plus she is forgiving as hell to play.
her beam isn't lock on
@@2911oscar I like that it isn't, it's fun to move it around the screen after a team kill and everyone can see it like the empire state building lol
I literally see people dying with Moira meanwhile she's a literal god and I have 0 death in over 8,000 hours in OW1 i cant wait to see ow2 man holy canoli im buzzing rn
great video. I hope people will play over watch 2 regardless of the company because it’s a really good game. I live in Australia and the queues for over watch are getting much longer over the past couple of years.
That’s because people are leaving this shit game. Blizzard ruined the 1st game and just shat out a big updates worth of content as a 2nd one. Over watch 2 is gonna flop
I was always waiting for Winston to get the right click, wondered why he can't shoot with his cannon.
6:04 so roadhog still has his passive? if he does this means he has 55% less ult charge from damage taken
We need someone to test this in practice range
*75% less ult charge from farming him
@@KuroVergil no, because the new tank passive is 30% leas charge. Roadhog’s is 25%. 30 + 25 = 55
@@charKT-7461 hes talking about farming HIM
@@NExTJx yeah, you generate 55% less ult charge from farming him. If he still has his unnamed passive, that is
McCassidy has no flashbang anymore... That was so fun to play
I wish for bastion you could switch between turret from overwatch 1 and the one from 2
Dang man, they really went wild with those Torb changes. Glad to see some attention for him 👍
I dont really like how they removed most cc and just straight up nerfed some heroes, to me it seemed pretty balanced before except for dva and she got buffed
Yeah, the game currently is not as broken as it used to be regarding the gameplay of each character (the matchmaking is the worst thing about ow, you can't have balance if the teams are uneven). When they announced a "sequel", I expected something like a added ability to each character, let's say Mercy has a flashbang by using the light of her wings, Winston can shoot a midrange jolt of electricity, McCree can thrown a dynamite, Soldier throws a grenade or he can pull a side-arm pistol, etc.. Things like that. And the players pick and choose these abilities before the match, so let's say you want Mercy's flashbang instead of her pistol, change that before the match. But nope, they removed cc, everyone has hitscan, mobility... it looks like Quake, lol simple as it is, the game changed into a weird looking Quake
Still waiting for mei to become a tank, her whole kit fits so much more into the OW2 tank role
I was a D.va main in OW1 so the buffs are quite nice ngl
