It is that time again this week where Overwatch players see another round of hero pools released. This means a whole new meta being introduced. The catch is that the Overwatch team heavily banned a significant part of DPS heroes, four to be exact. Other bans include 1 tank and 1 support.
A huge announcement broke the internet last Thursday. Jeff Kaplan, the lead designer of Overwatch, announced several changes to Overwatch. One of those changes is rotating hero pools. Think of it like map pools rotating each season in competitive, except it is on a weekly basis with heroes. Not only are map pools rotating in competitive, but also heroes. As soon as the developer update released, Overwatch League released a blog detailing how hero pools are going to work for the league.
