Overwatch 2 Stadium patch nerfs D.Va, Reinhardt, and Orisa
The latest hotfix nerfs D.Va's Nano Cola Nitrous and Busan Blaster Items in Stadium. These updates scale back her survivability and how she's been able to quickly mech up again. Meanwhile, our favorite horse also has Stadium Power nerfs in terms of Restortify and Solar Regenergy. They now have reduced healing and armor restoration respectively.
As for Reinhardt, this tank hero has been earning too much Stadium Cash. Therefore, the amount he can earn is now 13.64% less. This decreases his potential to snowball in matches. In terms of Zarya, she has a couple of adjustments. Her Lifelift nerf means reduced health scaling while her Here to Spot You buff makes it a more reliable Stadium Power.
