The <b>January 8 patch<\/b> introduces significant ability cooldown increases and damage reductions. According to community feedback, Vendetta had dominated matches too heavily since launch.<\/p>\n<p>This <b>major nerf<\/b> marks a turning point in the meta. Players have complained about her extreme mobility paired with high burst damage. The patch addresses both concerns simultaneously, bringing balance to ranked play.<\/p>\n<h2>Tank Heroes Receive Significant Adjustments<\/h2>\n<p><b>D.Va<\/b> and <b>Wrecking Ball<\/b> both received movement cooldown nerfs in this update. These heroes previously escaped fights too easily, earning consistent picks in competitive. The <b>Extended Boosters perk<\/b> damage dropped from <b>100%<\/b> down to <b>40%<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>This adjustment forces tank players to reconsider positioning strategies.
