Overwatch 2 patch fails to nerf powerful heroes

Overwatch 2 released its first midseason patch since adding Hero Perks, but many players are unhappy. The patch was expected to adjust the game's balance by nerfing some of the strongest heroes. However, it largely failed to do so. The introduction of Hero Perks has changed gameplay significantly. Certain characters, like Sojourn, Torbjorn, and Ana, have become very powerful. Many players feel these heroes are too strong and need adjustments. Despite this, the new patch did not provide any major nerfs to these characters, leaving the game's balance largely unchanged. Instead of reducing the power of strong heroes, the developers decided to improve weaker ones. Some players felt this approach was insufficient. Comments from the community described the lack of changes to characters like Sojourn and Ana as surprising and disappointing. Many believe that the game will continue to be dominated by the same strong heroes. While Blizzard has promised to introduce new Perks in the future, players are left wondering how effective the current buffs will be. They hope that these changes will lead to a more balanced game, but many are skeptical. Overall, reactions to the midseason patch are mixed, with players expecting more significant changes next time.
