Overwatch 2 Season 13: 3 Heroes Getting Nerfed, 2 Getting Buffed


IT’S TIME TO GET READY FOR OVERWATCH 2 SEASON 13

The wait is almost over, folks – the latest patch notes for Overwatch 2 Season 13 have dropped, and we’re about to dive into the most epic changes yet. If you’re anything like me, you’ve been grinding hard in Season 12, but it’s time to switch up your strategy because some of your favorite heroes are getting a serious rebalance.

Overwatch 2 Season 13: The Patch Notes Are Here, and They’re a Game-Changer

The wait is finally over, folks. The Overwatch 2 Season 13 patch notes have dropped, and we’re diving in to give you the lowdown on all the juicy updates. From nerfs to buffs, and everything in between, we’ve got you covered.

The Nerfs: Who’s Getting Hit?

It’s time to say goodbye to those OP heroes, as Blizzard is bringing the hammer down on Sombra, Ramattra, and Juno. Here are the key changes:

  • Ramattra’s punches will now deal 2.5 times the damage to barriers, but they’ll no longer pierce them. This is a BIG change, folks, and it’s going to make a huge difference in team fights.
  • Juno’s fall-off range has been reduced, and her Mediblaster healing has been nerfed. This is a big blow to Juno mains, but don’t worry, we’ve got some buffs to balance it out.
  • Sombra’s getting a whole lot of changes, including a nerf to her hack, which will now reveal her briefly. Her translocator cooldown has also been increased, and her stealth will only be active for 5 seconds after translocating. Ouch.

The Buffs: Who’s Getting a Boost?

But don’t worry, it’s not all bad news. Mauga and Sojourn are getting some serious buffs, and we’re hyped.

  • Mauga’s ignite damage over time now lasts 4 seconds, which is a huge increase. This is going to make him a lot more viable in team fights.
  • Sojourn’s energy no longer holds a minimum of 25, and her disruptor shot damage per second has been increased to 80. She’s also generating Railgun energy now, which is a game-changer.


Other Updates and Leaks

But that’s not all, folks. The Overwatch 2 Season 13 Battle Pass is looking fire, with the Kitten of Discord player title available at tier 175. We’re also getting reworks to the Circuit Royale, Dorado, Havana, and Numbani maps, which is going to shake things up in a big way.

  • New skins are available via the Battle Pass, Mythic Shop, and regular shop, so you can rep your favorite heroes in style.
  • Gilded Aspects are mythic hero skin customizations that are arriving in Season 13. We don’t know much about them yet, but we’re hyped.

The Impact: What Does It All Mean?

So, what does all this mean for the Overwatch 2 meta? Well, for starters, it’s going to be a lot harder to play Sombra and Ramattra. They’re still viable heroes, but they’re not going to be as OP as they were before.

On the other hand, Mauga and Sojourn are looking like they’re going to be a lot more powerful. They’re getting some serious buffs, and they’re going to be a lot more viable in team fights.
