As Blizzard unlocks Illari for competitive play in Overwatch 2, she officially receives Nerfs

After the young Peruvian girl took over the game with her solar-powered skills and healing turret, Blizzard today finally gave Overwatch 2’s newest support hero—Illari—some nerfs. Aaron Keller, the director of the game, forewarned users that Illari would probably be a strong force before her inclusion at the start of season six, and with the team unlocking her in competitive mode today, the devs gave a nerf to a pair of her abilities that have been giving users fits: Healing Pylon and Captive Sun.

Alec Dawson, the lead hero designer for the game, wrote on Twitter that Healing Pylon has “accounted for around 63 percent of her healing in games.” “We’d like to bring down that ratio and have more focus on her active healing (which is quite strong),” he said. “Captive Sun’s size reduction change is a buff so that when it is now blocked by barriers or eaten through other abilities it makes more visual sense. The past projectile size wasn’t enabling Illari players to accurately predict whether or not the ultimate would be consumed.”

Players can now employ Ilari in competitive play as well. In order to give the developers time to make sure there are no unresolved flaws with the hero, Blizzard often bans new heroes from use in competitive play for the first two weeks of the season they are introduced.
