I think I speak for most Overwatch 2 players when I say that Zarya is a pain in the ass. Whether you're against her or even playing as her, it's frustrating just how essential she has become . If you want a chance at winning, you better make her your Tank, otherwise you're just asking for trou

Though it hasn't received as much love in the last few years - and it's hard to say how this mode will work now that story missions will be implemented.. Overwatch Archives usually happens around April, sometimes getting either March or May along with

Furthermore, Zarya's Overwatch 2 buffs made her a clear winner. In the sequel, she was given 50 extra hit points and five more points to her shield. But the real selling points here are her Barriers, which had their duration increased by half a second. While this might not sound like much, this can make all the difference in a fight, especially when Overwatch 2 is much more fast-paced in gene

"Remember how fun it was to grind out loot boxes for holiday events?" says Reddit user Lord-Canti. "Like when the Christmas event was going on you'd see everyone running around showing off their new Christmas skins and emotes? It was great but now you just get a measly amount of credits for doing annoying weekly challenges. Overwatch 2 feels so unrewarding to pl

And of course, it must be said that loot boxes weren't simply disliked because they were annoying.

The US Department of Justice and Acti-Blizz have been holding legal discussions regarding the Overwatch League esports tournament. The main reason for these discussions is Acti-Blizz breaking antitrust rules stemming from a "competitive balance tax". The talks have reportedly broken down after Activision "refused to make certain concessio

Luckily, however, it seems that fans will be getting their wish soon. The next big update is coming November 15, and will nerf Zarya in several different ways. For starters, the Barrier's duration is going back down to two seconds, as it was in the first Overwatch. On top of that, it will now have an eleven-second cooldown, stopping you from spamming it so much in bat

Most of this frustration appears to come down to the fact that Overwatch 2 brought the team size down from six to five. This means there's only one Tank per team, making their choice even more essential. So if there's a clear winner in the category, there isn't much room for experimentat

The new system updates your rank once every seven wins or 20 losses, making it particularly hard to follow. Players also feel that they are not being rewarded despite getting multiple victories.
