Overworked - Overwatch New Hero Abilities
Welcome to Overworked!
Overworked is a hero rework gamemode where everyone has a new set of abilities that greatly modify and vary the skill ceiling and hero feel, whilst still fun to play at the same time! Play in a Team Deathmatch environment in (kind of) unbridled chaos and fast-paced brawl.
What happens with a 5-man aerial comp? Some heroes will even have role changes! You heard of Mei being a tank. What happens if Symmetra is a has her Shield Generator again?
Torbjörn is an attack helicopter! Woah! I sure wonder how that's balanced!

PEJSY is the primary code of this gamemode, and will be a Team Deathmatch gamemode by default. If you'd like to play the vanilla gamemodes (Hybrid, Escort etc.), select them in the hero settings.
Note! This gamemode is still in its beta phase! Not everybody is added yet, and there are definitely bugs that exist!
