Overwatch Moira skins update: New skins revealed following hero PTR release

Moira was revealed during Blizzcon and now the new hero has been launched on the game’s official PTR.

This will allow for some serious stress-testing of the character, who is already being described as being a little overpowered.

You can find her full abilities list below:

Wielding both regenerative and degenerative technologies at her fingertips, Moira O’Deorain is Talon’s ambitious geneticist who seeks to rewrite the building blocks of humanity by any means necessary.

BIOTIC GRASP: Using her left hand, Moira expends biotic energy to heal allies in front of her. Her right hand fires a long-range beam weapon that saps enemies’ health, healing Moira and replenishing her biotic energy.
BIOTIC ORB: Moira launches a rebounding biotic sphere; she can choose between a regeneration effect that heals the allies it passes through, or a decay effect that deals damage to enemies.
FADE: Moira quickly teleports a short distance.
COALESCENCE: Moira channels a long-range beam that both heals allies and bypasses barriers to damage her enemies.

Included in this new PTR launch is a bunch of new Overwatch Moira skins, which can be found below in the gallery.

Other changes were also included in the new PTR, which mainly affect Moira’s opposite, Mercy.

“We feel that Mercy’s recent rework has been successful, but her Resurrect ability still feels too strong and frustrating to play against,” the official patch notes explains.

“Now that it has a cast time, there is more room for enemies to counter the ability.

“However, casting Resurrect happens instantly when Valkyrie is active. This should make her feel powerful when she transforms on the battlefield.”

Overwatch patch notes:

Mercy

Resurrect

Cast time increased from 0 seconds to 1.75 seconds
Mercy’s movement speed is now reduced by 75% while casting
Can now be interrupted when Mercy is knocked back, stunned, or hacked

Valkyrie

When activated, Resurrection no longer has a cast time
While active, casting Resurrect does not reduce Mercy’s movement speed

Ana

Biotic Rifle
Damage increased from 60 to 70

Ana has been outshined by other support heroes lately. Boosting her damage will help her defend herself and make her more threatening to the enemy team.
