Overwatch is a game that doesn't require you to know any of its backstory in order to enjoy it. A lot of players see Overwatch as nothing more than a game about teams of superheroes with unique powers/fighting styles who like to fight each other. Blizzard has created a story for Overwatch , yet they decided to mainly put it into sources that exist outside of the game, such as in animated features and com


No longer protects allies from knockback




_Developer Comments: This is actually reverting a change that we made a few patches ago, which made players immune to knockbacks if they were hit by an effect from inside her barrier. This had some negative side effects, such as making targets immune to knockbacks from effects that pierce barriers, like Reinhardt’s charge and Winston’s Primal Rage punches.

In March of 2017, a parent took to Twitter to complain about how her daughter had got into trouble for calling another student a " Hanzo main " at school.

Most conversations about incoming patches have to do with how it's going to change the meta. Ana's getting nerfed and Reinhardt is a must-pick, always. Even the professional e-sports teams start to look the same in their lineups. This is why some fans have been arguing to legitimize a narrow but popular niche community within Overwatch : The 3v3 players. Currently, 3v3 is in the Arcade and only has one map, but with any combination of three heroes to choose from there are countless possibilities for a quick win or a long drawn out battle.
