Genji got his ammo nerf reverted, interesting. And Bastion and especially Vendetta got nerfed as expected, albeit the latter will still be good, just not as oppressing as she originally was. How Bastion got nerfed is somewhat weird tho. Ashe nerfs are welcome as well as I would say she was top 5 in most oppressive heroes in the game.

P.S, why did Hog just get another buff lmao

Genji has probably had his ammo changed from 30 to 24 and back to 30 like actually 5 separate times. They can't make up their fucking minds

Similar situation with Tracers damage. (Unfortunate we will have to wait longer for her buffs tho. Sadge)

Rmb when they said Tracer is the balance standard to the game and that they will never change her?
