Overwatch 2 Season 9 Leak Reveals Possible Buff for One DPS Character
29.01.2024 - 00:21 / gamerant.com / Bruna Telles
An Overwatch 2 leak revealed a potential buff for Tracer that would increase her HP to 175. Overwatch 2 has 39 heroes, but few are as iconic as Tracer. The face of the game since the original Overwatch days, Tracer has a strong presence in Overwatch 2's lore. She's equally striking in Overwatch 2 matches, having tools to carry games as few other heroes can.
Overwatch 2 is currently in Season 8, which began in December last year, and this has had its share of balancing problems. One of the biggest headaches has been Mauga, the most recent addition to the Overwatch 2 roster, who got severe nerfs to curb his firepower. But the Samoan wasn't the only one to receive controversial tweaks, with changes to Orisa and Lifeweaver leaving players debating. But while some heroes have been getting frequent adjustments in Season 8, Tracer has been slipping under the radar. Officially, the only substantial adjustment to the DPS hero has been the increased damage to Pulse Pistols. But new information suggests that Tracer could receive a big tweak in the upcoming Overwatch 2 season.
Twitch streamer John «W_NTED» revealed that Tracer has 175 HP on the Overwatch 2 test server. Tracer currently has 150 HP, which leaves her among the Overwatch 2 DPS heroes with the lowest health. It's important to note that the information isn't provided with any additional context, with players saying that Overwatch 2 may be making other changes to Tracer's gameplay beyond the HP adjustment. But despite the change not being confirmed, this isn't stopping the Overwatch 2 community from debating the potential impact of this change on the game's meta.
Tracer is one of Overwatch 2's most difficult heroes to learn, making her extra tricky because of her low HP. Yet it's not rare to find comments from players who consider Tracer a broken hero. The reason for this lies in Tracer's skill set, with Blink and Recall giving her high mobility to harass the enemy backline. With the potential HP buff, players are worried about Tracer becoming even more difficult to deal with, as the extra HP would prevent her from being one-shot by other heroes.
Leaks don't always come to fruition, so the potential HP buff for Tracer in Overwatch 2 Season 9 should be taken with a grain of salt. While players wait to find out what will become of the time-traveling hero, other adjustments for the next season of the shooter are already confirmed. Overwatch 2 will give a self-healing passive to tank and DPS heroes, promising to make a significant shift to the game's meta by allowing both roles to have more self-sufficiency in matches.
Overwatch 2 is Blizzard's free-to-play team-based first-person shooter. The title features some new heroes like Junker Queen and Sojourn, as well
