Tank gamers are having a tough time in Overwatch 2 after the most recent patch broke a few key heroes for the position. Should you’re a Sigma or Doomfist essential, you’ll want to change to a different hero or position for a bit, as one is damaged and the opposite has been yoinked from aggressive play completely.

The patch was meant to be a little bit of routine steadiness upkeep that additionally added the Starwatch 4v4 occasion mode, but it surely introduced issues for the 2 Talon tanks that gamers are having to scramble round after they decide roles. Whereas Doomfist most gamers might take or go away, Sigma is a reasonably outstanding decide in aggressive play, so this has some far reaching penalties.
Gamers are reporting hassle with Doomfist’s Energy Block skill, which is meant to scale back injury, gradual motion pace, and cost up his Rocket Punch transfer as he takes enemy hearth. Nevertheless, the flexibility isn’t lowering injury a lot in any respect proper now. I’ve seen Doomfist survive a D.Va Self-Destruct utilizing Energy Block with some overhealth construct up, however now it looks as if the transfer is simply not defending Doomfist from something.
Sigma’s troubles are so dangerous that Blizzard has removed the gravity-obsessed mad scientist from competitive modes till it will possibly type issues out. Within the newest patch, gamers found that they may make Sigma fly ceaselessly through the use of his Gravitic Flux final skill. Underneath regular circumstances, the hero is ready to fly for a quick window whereas casting this skill, however for the reason that newest patch, gamers have been capable of fly ceaselessly after utilizing the assault.
As of proper now, Sigma has solely been faraway from ranked video games, however the situation remains to be current in Fast Play. Whereas the glitch is humorous, it’s simply as damaged in non-ranked matches, so I’m shocked Blizzard hasn’t eliminated Sigma from the sport altogether. It wouldn’t be the primary time the staff has performed that, as Mei and Bastion have been each pulled from Overwatch 2 after some bugs with their kits have been found final yr.
The irony of all of that is that Sigma and Doomfist are each the celebrities of Overwatch 2’s Star Wars-inspired occasion Starwatch, which launched earlier this week. Purpose for the AI-controlled Doomfist, people. He can’t block your photographs anymore.
