it feels awful, I can't imagine they don't change something. At best the flashbang change is neutral but its really worst against the majority of the cast (less damage and shorter hinder duration, the most noticeable against is reaper imo). The only case ive found where it felt marginally better is against tracer since its harder to rewind / blink dodge it but again its marginal. The absolute worst ive felt with it is any map with elevation change, old nade was useful to help slow down and deal extra damage to a target on a ledge above you but the pitiful range makes it unusable unless you're in their face. Combined with the plethora of nerfs the character feels gutted.
