BBG News

The most recent update for the Overwatch Stadium has brought several changes affecting characters like Reinhardt, Zarya, Reaper, Soldier: 76, Lucio, and Juno.

Blizzard Entertainment has released an update for the Stadium mode in Overwatch 2, focusing on abnormal Power and Item usage. Additionally, it alters how much Stadium Cash you’ll earn. Here are the most recent Overwatch 2 Stadium patch changes.

Overwatch 2 Stadium patch nerfs D.Va, Reinhardt, and Orisa

In the most recent update, the strength of D.Va’s Nano Cola Nitrous and Busan Blaster items in Stadium, her mech form, has been decreased. This adjustment reduces her resilience and speed at which she can re-enter her mech. Similarly, our beloved Pegasus has experienced Stadium Power nerfs, affecting its Restortify and Solar Regenergy abilities. Now, Restortify provides less healing, while Solar Regenergy offers reduced armor restoration.

Regarding Reinhardt, he’s been making an excessive amount of Stadium Cash, so his earning capacity is now reduced by 13.64%. This reduction should limit his ability to accumulate advantages in matches. As for Zarya, she’s undergoing a few changes. Her Lifelift adjustment results in less health scaling, but her Here to Spot You buff makes it a more dependable Stadium Power.

Similarly, Soldier: 76 earns less Stadium Cash and undergoes a nerf in his Rocket Visor Power. However, this change shortens the duration of his Tactical Visor, but boosts his Biotic Bullseye abilities. As for Mei, her modifications involve reducing the frequency of her Endothermic Blaster’s knockback and increasing its damage per knockback.

His B-Side Bop Stadium Item also undergoes a reduction to boost its pick rate.
