As season four of Overwatch 2 approaches, Blizzard is making a number of balance changes. One of the most controversial of these changes is the nerf to Ashe, which is being labeled as a “bug fix”. This nerf affects Ashe’s ability to gain ultimate charge from her trusty sidekick B.O.B.
The nerf has sparked debate among Overwatch players on Reddit, with some claiming that this was an intended feature and not a bug. This is because other heroes can also gain ultimate charge when using their ultimates, such as Wrecking Ball and his Minefield.
This has led to players calling out Blizzard for the nerf, asking for some sort of compensation to Ashe’s ultimate charge. It’s unclear what the bug fix entails exactly and players will be able to test it out themselves when season four drops on April 11.
The nerf to Ashe has definitely been one of the most controversial changes coming with the new season and it will be interesting to see how it affects the meta.
