Can someone on the dev team please look into the balancing of total mayhem? it was already annoying dealing with winston and slightly less so moira and zar, but with the changes, zar is almost invincible, you need a sombra to even attempt killing her if her team has a healer The user interface has been updated to display this new time accuracy everywhere that we display time and score. Aside from a slight nerf to Echo's Focusing Beam, the only difference between her kit in Overwatch 2 compared to the original is a 300 HP cap on her Duplicate Ultimate. This change was made because many Echo players felt like duplicating tanks was always the best option in fights due to their high health pools. Also, because tanks have been buffed significantly overall in Overwatch 2, being able to have two of them on the field without any limitations would likely have made Duplicate feel too strong.

Orisa rapidly spins an energy javelin for 1.75 seconds, destroying enemy projectiles and gaining a 50% buff to forward movement speed while active. Echo is largely the same as she was in the original Overwatch, though her Ultimate has been nerfed in a significant way. Here's what the developers changed:Heroes no longer take damage from their own abilities if they’re on the other side of a friendly barrier Update (Nov. 15): Blizzard announced Tuesday, the day the mid-season balance patch for Overwatch 2 was expected to go live and currently disabled hero Mei was set to return to the roster, that the update has been indefinitely delayed. An Overwatch community manager posted the following notice on Blizzard’s official forums:

For the sake of concision, I’ve omitted the intro, the part about Ramattra’s abilities ( you can read about those here) and the Season 2 map pool ( full details here). Otherwise, here are the Overwatch 2 Season 2 patch notes, in Blizzard’s words: General Updates Control Game Mode

Update 3 (November 16, 2022)

Total Mayhem’ is a classic Overwatch game mode that was already present in the original game. During Total Mayhem matches, all heroes have a 75% cooldown buff for many abilities and double ‘life bar’. Fixed a bug with the Hermes skin that caused the sounds played during Wallride to be louder than intended. Fixed an issue that resulted in enemy team Roles being revealed via the scoreboard in Mystery Heroes.

I’m sure I’m not the first person to bring this up… but total mayhem is just NOT playable or fun with Zarya’s new changes. She’s LITERALLY invincible unless there’s a Sombra, that’s the only way to even touch her lol. These changes to Reaper's shotguns make them slightly less potent in combat, but since the battlefields of Overwatch 2 are more open and aren't as clogged up with tanking abilities, Reaper is significantly more viable overall than he was in the original game. Lucio is another hero who hasn't changed much in Overwatch 2, though some notable balance tweaks were made.Due to his recent resurgence in Overwatch 2, Blizzard has made some adjustments to his kit in an effort to tweak his overall effectiveness and uptime. Aside from Reinhardt, Sigma is now the only other tank in Overwatch 2 who can protect his teammates with a traditional barrier. The buff to his shield health makes him more durable than he was before, while the increased damage of Accretion makes the ability more powerful and rewarding to land. The slight nerf to his barrier's regeneration means that Sigma players won't be able to keep it up as often, but Sigma's high damage output with Hyperspheres still forces enemies to respect his position. Zarya will soon, in fact, become mortal in Total Mayhem. These are much-needed changes because despite concerns (including from me) that a change to how her bubbles work would make her weaker in Overwatch 2, she’s become very effective as a solo tank thanks to her barriers and high damage output.
