Overwatch 2 tank players’ calls for Zenyatta nerf may have backfired with mid-cycle patch
Zenyatta has been the bane of many tank players in Overwatch 2 over the past few months, but the promise of a mid-cycle nerf to Orb of Discord brought a moment of hope for tanks that are tired of getting torn apart by the ability’s damage received debuff.
Unfortunately for tanks, the nerfs to Zenyatta’s flagship ability on July 11 may have some unintended consequences. With a reduction to the maximum range of Orb of Discord, Zenyatta players have quickly noticed that they can no longer slap the debuff on DPS players that are off in the distance.
