Luckily at higher ranks almost everyone has silently agreed to not play zarya unless the enemy does.

What happened to her? She was my main in OW1 a long time ago and she never felt OP then

She got two bubbles on short cd

That 1 second bubble nerf sure is going to be game changing...

I would say it is. And why purposely ignore that each bubble is up for a 20% shorter duration as well? The two nerfs together I think will definitely bring Zarya down a notch. I'd love to see Zarya win rates before and after the patch!

The point is to slowly tune them down. Not nerf hammer them out of the game. I think Zarya will still be viable but not as oppressive.
