Roadhog’s Jan. 24 changes are actually a huge buff on these Overwatch 2 maps
Overwatch 2’s newest patch has thrown a spanner in the works in regards to the title’s current metagame, with characters you’d expect to see in almost every lobby like Kiriko and Sojourn nerfed quite heavily—but not every change is bad news.
Roadhog has been notorious for his hook combo since release. This ability, paired with a cheeky bop on the head, would destroy any damage and support player in his eye line. With how quickly every ‘Hog player can throw hooks out, Overwatch gamers were regularly left cowering behind walls every eight seconds or simply hiding behind their own tank.
