Blizzard works to fix Brigitte shield bug in Overwatch 2 making her practically unplayable

Brigitte might not have one of the highest pick rates among support heroes, but when she is selected, it’s typically for good reason. Her shielding and light crowd-control are a critical element of countering an enemy team’s dive, but none of that matters if her abilities, you know, don’t work.

It seems like at the start of nearly every Overwatch 2 season, there are a few kinks in the coding that need to be fleshed out, and shortly after the opening of season seven, players started to notice that Brigitte’s shield just wasn’t doing its job sometimes. The most heavily passed around clip on social media was one that showed Brig’s shield completely failing to protect the hero from a D.Va ultimate, something that it should be able to do.
