To its credit, there’s quite a lot to talk about with Overwatch 2’s Season 2 changes.
To help make it all a little more digestible, I’ve divided my thoughts into the following sections.
Ramattra: A complex Tank in both lore and playstyle
Where to begin with Ramattra?
Is he worth the wait?
I’d say so, yes - but don’t expect him to top the meta just yet.
To no one’s surprise, Ramattra looks and feels magnificent in-game.
And it did feel a lot like Reinhardt in some ways.
It’s a delicate balance, and one which can easily result in death if you get it wrong.
I bet when the dust clears, the answer will be somewhere between the two.
As for how it plays, I can’t help but feel a little concerned.
It’s fun, for sure.
I just wonder if it’s a little too weighted in the defenders' favour.
The path snakes from left to right but always continues to rise upwards in a gentle slope.
Aethetically, it’s wonderful, and different, and fascinating.
Thing is, that’s just not enough.
That Soldier is going down regardless of this small change.
Similarly, Kiriko has received a “nerf” that I really don’t think goes far enough.
These weren’t what made Kitsune Rush powerful!
A smattering of other tweaks add some fairly inoffensive changes to the hero roster.
At least Doomfist has got a decent buff.
Sojourn and Kiriko are still gonna run rampant, despite their meagre nerfs.
