Overwatch 2 has done a much better job in recent years of listening to fans and making changes at a faster pace. Some wish that they would do it even more but compared to the barren Overwatch 1 year, these changes feel pretty quick. They decided that Mauga did some quick fixes so here they are in the Overwatch 2 December 19 Patch.

New Overwatch 2 Patch Analysis
There is not too much to dive into with this one. They are attempting to make Mauga tankier while spreading out some of his damage. The armor should allow him to stand in front a bit longer but the base health decrease is a bit concerning. It will be worth watching how much you feel it when his armor goes down but hopefully, this will put Mauga in a much healthier place.
