Overwatch 2 Season 13 introduced many hero updates, from nerfing Ramattra's punches to a full rework for Sombra. However, in the latest patch, Ramattra’s changes have been reverted, Sombra has received some buffs, and Orisa has been hit with a nerf, to name a few highlights. So let’s dive into the details of the latest Overwatch 2 Season 13 patch.
Overwatch 2 Season 13 Patch Addresses Ramattra, Orisa and More
Blizzard has released their Retail Patch for Season 13, bringing updates to heroes in the Junkenstein's Lab game mode. These adjustments include Ashe gaining more ult charge when damaging burning targets, Genji receiving increased healing while deflecting, and Zenyatta now granting movement speed with Harmony Orb, among others.
However, the patch notes reveal even more exciting changes for the base game, with balance adjustments made to three tanks and other heroes. Orisa, much to players' relief, has had her health distribution tweaked, along with a slight nerf to her Energy Javelin and Fortify abilities.
Ramattra also received favorable adjustments, with his pummel attacks in Nemesis form now able to penetrate barriers again, though they no longer deal critical damage to shields. Sombra received some minor buffs as well, with her Translocator's fade-in time and stealth entry time reduced, and her ultimate cost lowered by 10%.
Additionally, Juno's ultimate saw a slight nerf, with Orbital Ray's healing reduced from 100 to 85 per second. This change could impact Juno’s place in the meta, but we'll need to see how it performs in competitive matches for a full assessment.
Those are the highlights of the latest Overwatch 2 patch notes, which return Ramattra to his iconic, barrier-piercing style and slightly rein in Orisa’s power. More updates are on the horizon, so check back soon as Blizzard continues to refine Overwatch 2.
