Orisa is now live, and as expected, it’s taking the community some time to get used to her. Many are trying to use her as a replacement for Zarya, D.Va, and other tanks, when it’s pretty clear she was built to be an option for Reinhardt. But now that she’s off the PTR, we can focus on other important changes coming, such as Lucio being readjusted. Healing radius nerfed, healing amount buff, as well as some other interesting changes.
