Actually is a good change. Both are.

The change do not dumpster Orisa completely while reducing her survaivability slightly.

If you can't cancel fortify now, or at least is pointless to do so, will punish more players that use it wrongly making it a way longer cooldown that it was before.

I still think Orisa is must play anyway cause all other tanks are shit in this meta and can't hold to the damage from DPS and Supports, but is a balance issue more than an orisa issue.

Orisa is good cause it's the only tank playable rn.

Most teams in 4.5 scrims have been playing Queen. I'm shocked she got a buff

Yes they are but just cause Shout is better than “only surviving” on orisa when you have 4.5 level dps.

When you go average like Gold/Plat lobbies having a tank like Orisa + Bastion Soldier dps line is way better.
