HELDENUPDATES

ANA
	Biotic rifle General The size of projectiles from allies has been reduced from 0.3 to 0.4.

BRIGITTE
Developer’s comment: Brigitte not only supports her team with many useful abilities, she also brings high amounts of healing and armor. We’re reducing that healing and armor a bit to bring Brigitte in line with the other healers.
	Repair kit The maximum armor awarded has been reduced from 75 to 50. Healing per second has been reduced from 60 to 55.

SYMMETRA
Developer’s note: The increased maximum damage of the Photon Projector allows Symmetra to still effectively engage in combat from a safer distance if necessary.
	Photon projector Secondary fire mode Damage increased from 120 to 140.
	Self-Shooter [Console Only] Reduced the damage per second dealt by the self-shooter from 34 to 30.

WIDOWMAKER
Developer comment: After making changes to other heroes, such as mitigating barriers, Widowmaker has become stronger over time. With this change, we want to slow down her shots and thus reduce her damage potential a bit in general.
	Widow’s Kiss Secondary Fire Mode The time to maximum charge of shots in sniper mode has been increased from 0.75 to 0.9 sec.

WRECKING BALL
Developer comment: This change allows Wrecking Ball’s opponents to regain control and dodge attacks faster. This makes combos with a collision course slightly less deadly.
	Collision Course The duration of the loss of control of players who are thrown into the air has been reduced from 1 to 0.5 sec.

OVERWATCH

Overwatch is a team-based 6vs6 shooter that was released on May 24, 2016. Overwatch stays true to the true style of Blizzard’s previous titles. It was developed by Jeff Kaplan and is considered a “new concept” shooter in the FPS genre. The game was officially unveiled at BlizzCon along with 12 heroes on November 7, 2014.

The story of Overwatch is set on a highly fictionalized future version of Earth. In a time where humans and robots, which are called Omnics, live together (Chris Metzen hinted that the story deals with this very robot race). 30 years before the time when Overwatch takes place, the so-called “Omnic Crisis ” occurred. The robots, once helpers of humans, rebelled against their creators for reasons as yet unknown and triggered a worldwide chaos. Faced with the imminent destruction of human civilization, the best soldiers of all nations came together to form a program called “Overwatch”.

Their job was to protect the world from the Omnics, which they succeeded in doing. For the next 25 years, they were the protectors of the planet, united in an international coalition. Some agents stayed, some were replaced, but at some point something changed: the Overwatch disintegrated. However, 5 years later after this event, incidents with Omnics are again accumulating, a worldwide terrorist organization also seems interested in destabilizing the world order. A new crisis is looming. At this point, your career as an Overwatch agent begins.
