Wanted to increase sustain outside of overhealth generation from offensive abilities. Increasing ult generation helps hit breakpoints for Doom that were unsatisfying before. Being a tank that has to do calculus against enemy team compositions with numerous Crowd Control abilities, he has been given counter-play in the form of a short CC immunity. His current ultimates recent changes have promoted lingering in it to heal. The longer Doom waits in his ultimate, the more counterplay there will be when he lands. To push away from lingering, his ultimate healing has been reduced, but he gets an instant burst of healing when ulting.

D.va doesn't seem to fit well into the 5v5 format, so she has been given more sustain to feel more like a tank than a third damage character.

Mauga has been moved to the Damage Role. He felt out of place and very abusive in the Tank role, whether playing with, or against him. His size has been reduced 15%, his guns have been restricted to being used one at a time, and his abilities have been changed to better fit the damage role. These changes make him capable of still outputting high damage while not being oppressive for the opposing tank. NOTE: will add DPS Role passive later, but will likely not have any visual indicator for it cuz im too lazy

After removing her damage falloff, Orisa has one less weakness. To compensate, primary fire damage has been reduced and her cooldowns have been increased to allow for more skillful expression of cooldown usage seen in other tanks.

Nemesis form is far more oppressive than his Omnic form, so it sometimes feels like you are just waiting until that cooldown is available to be able to play again. Because of this, some of his utility has been moved from his Nemesis form to his Omnic form to allow a more even, yet dynamic playstyle.

To move some sustain from his shield to himself, Rein has gained some armor in place of shield hp. He has also gained some more utility to help keep up with newer tanks.

Attempting to make hog more consistently lethal while also reducing some of his sustain, some of his utility is being shifted between his abilities.

Changes are inline with Hero Fantasy. Also, thought it was funny haha.

Any other mobility tank can use any cooldown instantly after spawning, so hammonds Grappling Hook cooldown has been removed when (re)spawning.

Bastion's mobility is very limited. To reduce the unecessary penalties and promote a more mobile playstyle, the self-damage from his grenade has been significantly reduced; only applying enough damage to apply knockback.

The homing projectile from this future-cowboy is very irritating to play against if you have ever played tank. To remedy its 'yeet-and-hope, make em cope' playstyle, the projectile is no longer homing. To help with hitting targets, its size has been slightly increased, the nade moves faster, and it has a shorter cooldown to allow more frequent usage of the now more difficult to hit nade.

Echo is still functionally the same, however; her ultimate has been remade from scratch to allow for the implementation of my reworks during her duplication. The ultimate now actually turns echo into the hero she duplicates for the same duration as before, but she does not gain increased ult charge. She instead starts at 75% charge. NOTE: Currently, if you walk into spawn during the duration of her ultimate, there could be bad side effects (haven't thoroughly tested what happens, but may result in bugs with her ultimate/ui)

Genji is not a bad Damage character, he just needs some quality of life improvements. Sometimes it may feel like he doesn't have quite enough ammo, while playing against him feels like he always has Deflect. To tackle both of these issues and give Deflect more utility; his deflect cooldown has been increased, but while deflecting, he gains 3 ammo a second. Naked Blades also dont feel too great, so to give his ultimate a bit more lethality, his movement speed buff has been increased slightly.

With the release of Season 9, Hanzo can no longer one shot. To allow for more consistent damage output, his storm arrow cooldown has been tweaked.

Junkrat's trap is agonizing to the victims, but reducing its uptime would almost defeat the purpose of it. Instead, it's downtime has been slightly increased to allow for more opportunity to play around it.

Already having 250hp, Mei's cryo-freeze gives her incredible sustain. Already gaining immortality from the ability, her self-healing has been reduced. Mei's wall pillar health has been reduced to allow more counterplay, but the cooldown has also ben decreased to add more utility to her kit.

Pharah's ultimate almost always guarantees death. To alleviate this, she can now cancel her ultimate.

Reaper is an outdated character whose design has been mostly untouched since 2016. These changes give him a bit more flexible mobility and control over his kit.

Soldier is capable of high damage output, high mobility, and pretty good healing. Without completely removing his ability to self-heal, it needed to be reduced. A lot of one-on-one fights as soldier resulted in placing Biotic Field and killing the opponent faster because you heal more, or just squirming around in your field until you were full hp again. Soldier is not a Support Character, but a flanking DPS; these changes reflect that.

Widowmaker being the only Damage hero that can still one-shot post-Season 9, she is quite formidable. To give players a hint as to whrther they are being hunted, Widow now has a beam that shows where she is aiming. NOTE: Current beam effect is a rope-like thing as I thought the other beam effects were too distracting. If you want to mess with the beam effect yourself, go for it. CURRENTLY DISABLED UNTIL I FIGURE OUT RAYCASTS.

Baptiste's Immortality field is very frusturating to play against and has little counterplay, so its health has been nerfed slightly. Bap is also very lethal in the right hands. As to not mess with damage numbers and breakpoints and still take some of the lethality away, the duration of his ultimate has been decreased and cost increased.

Illari's playstyle has deviated from what it was on her release. She used to excel at taking off-angles and leaving the pylon to heal or team or bringing it with her to self sustain. Now, it is hard to do that due to the much more limited healing of her pylon. To allow her to take more off angles without increasing damage or healing numbers, she has been given more mobility options for her Outburst ability.

Kiriko has numerous get-out-of-jail-free cards, topped with impressive damage output in the right hands. Without tweaking damage numbers, her damage pressure should be lessened. Her Suzu is also the cause of a lot of frustration. The usage of Suzu should have more thought put into it, and these changes reflect that.

Some of Lifeweavers sustain is being shifted from him to his teammates. His petal platform feels almost impossible to destroy, so enemies typically opt for waiting it out rather than using resources on it when he can just throw another one. The health of the platform has been reduced, along with healing from his dash. However, he has recieved buffs elsewhere. Between the healing charge up time, the delay in switching 'weapons,' and having two clips to reload, Lifeweaver has a lot of downtime. He has effectively been given unlimited ammo in his healing clip to combat this.

Lúcio has poor maximization of his kit in lower ranks. This small rework lowers his skill floor a tad bit, while also raising his skill ceiling. Soundwave now has the functionality to knockback Lúcio. If you look downwards, you have more vertical momentum and directional velocity. If you boop someone next to you, you get a bit of backwards knockback. Another addition focuses more on his speed; the faster Lúcio goes, the further he will knock back his enemies with Soundwave. The Amp It Up change gives Lúcio a bit more utility for the ability. Also, in an experimental card in Overwatch 1, Lúcio's ultimate allowed him to kill anyone he lands on. This idea has returned; while it does significantly less damage, it gives offensive capabilites to his mostly entirely defensive ultimate.

With the introduction of Season 9, nothing has changed for Mercy besides her health. This gives more value to her Resurrect Ability, as whoever she resurrects has more health AND she is harder to kill given. These changes impact that.

Zen's kick does more knockback than Lucio's boop, so this will put it more inline with where it should be.
