Emongg explains why Zenyatta changes are effectively a nerf to all tank heroes
Hero balance changes to Zenyatta’s Orb of Discord on July 11 have been a hot button topic for Overwatch 2 conversation, and while everyone seems to agree that Zenyatta’s flagship ability was nerfed, it doesn’t appear to address the root of the issues some players had with the omnic monk.
Popular Twitch streamer Emongg is among the most well-known tank players in Overwatch 2, and as someone who plays on the competitive ladder for a substantive number of hours a day, he has quickly noticed that the changes to Zenyatta haven’t done what tank players felt needed to be done to Orb of Discord.
