What are her abilities and weapons?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><strong>D.Va<\/strong> has always been a popular Tank hero in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.virlan.co\/play\/category\/overwatch\/\">Overwatch<\/a>. Everything from her abilities to her aesthetics has made her a frequent addition to any match. With the launch of the <strong>Overwatch 2 PvP Beta<\/strong>, a number of heroes have been given some overhauls and reworks.<\/p>\n<h2>D.Va Overwatch 2 Rework Detailed<\/h2>\n<p>Some <strong>Overwatch<\/strong> fans might have mixed feelings over the extent of D.Va&#8217;s rework. Unlike some of the other tanks, like Doomfist, <strong>D.Va<\/strong> isn&#8217;t getting much in terms of an overhaul:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Base Health increased from 300 to 450<\/li>\n<li>Base Armor reduced from 300 to 200<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Fusion Cannons<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Primary Fire movement penalty reduced from 50% to 40%<\/li>\n<li>Weapon spread reduced from 4 to 3.5<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As you can see, <strong>D.Va&#8217;s<\/strong> main changes come in the form of adjustments to her base health and base armor, having been increased and reduced respectively. As for her Fusion Cannons, players might find that they&#8217;ve become a bit more streamlined, having weapon spread reduced as well as the movement penalty.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, <strong>D.Va<\/strong> isn&#8217;t the only hero who&#8217;s been given a rework for <strong>Overwatch 2<\/strong>. The likes of Orisa, Doomfist, and more have received some significant changes.<\/p>\n<h3>D.Va is SO FUN in Overwatch 2!<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"D.Va is SO FUN in Overwatch 2!\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gOqKq3apzgM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4>D.va Abilities in Overwatch 2<\/h4>\n<p>Defense Matrix: <strong>D.va<\/strong> activates a front-facing shield that absorbs bullets and projectiles. Defense Matrix can also absorb certain ultimate abilities that start out as projectiles, like Zarya\u2019s Graviton Surge and Hanzo\u2019s Dragonstrike.<\/p>\n<p>Boosters: While in her mech, <strong>D.Va<\/strong> emits a burst of speed that can push her forward or up into the air. She can change directions and fire while Boosters are active.<\/p>\n<p>Micro Missiles: After a short delay, <strong>D.Va<\/strong> shoots a burst of small missiles in the direction she\u2019s facing.<\/p>\n<p>Self-Destruct (ultimate): <strong>D.va<\/strong> ejects herself out of her mech and sets it to explode, which it does after three seconds. After the mech explodes, she can use Call Mech to summon another one.<\/p>\n<h5>Overwatch 2 devs defend major Tank role changes, confirm D.Va &amp; Winston buffs<\/h5>\n<p>With <strong>Overwatch 2<\/strong> trimming team sizes down to just five players, the Tank role is taking a major hit as only one is allowed per side. Though Blizzard has now defended this drastic shift and revealed some hefty buffs on the way for fan favorites like <strong>D.Va<\/strong> and Winston.<\/p>\n<p>Although it\u2019s been a while since we\u2019ve seen anything new on <strong>Overwatch 2<\/strong>, the community is still going back and forth over changes announced in May. During the last gameplay showcase, Blizzard confirmed the sequel is swapping from 6v6 to 5v5 gameplay.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, Tanks were cut down, with only one allowed per team moving forward. This fundamental shift completely alters the core experience players have grown accustomed to over the years, and naturally, there\u2019s been a great deal of concern.<\/p>\n<p>Looking to defend the radical decision, <strong>Overwatch<\/strong> Community Manager Andy Belford took to the Blizzard forums with an explanation along with some big announcements.<\/p>\n<p>Teams will have to pick just one Tank for their lineup in <strong>Overwatch 2<\/strong>.<br \/>By the time <strong>Overwatch 2<\/strong> launches, players will have more than six years of Tank experience under their belts. With two Tank heroes in every game, there come certain playstyles, tendencies, and metas. In the future, the <strong>Overwatch<\/strong> experience will be entirely different with just one-half of the Tank power.<\/p>\n<p>This means no \u2018double shields,\u2019 and thus, a new responsibility in the field. Rather than serving as \u201cpush-leading protectors,\u201d Tanks in <strong>Overwatch 2<\/strong> will have another purpose.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, Tanks \u201crooted in mobility\u201d will have their \u201cutility improved\u201d along with various additional buffs. Certain heroes like <strong>D.Va<\/strong>, Wrecking Ball, and Winston will all gain more \u201cdefensive stopping power,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<h5>D.Va Strategy in Overwatch 2<\/h5>\n<p><strong>D.Va<\/strong> is a unique tank with some mobility. With very high health and Ability-dva2.png Boosters, she can close a gap to the enemy with ease. She has high damage output at close-range, making her a strong fighter in a 1-on-1 match. Her Ability-dva3.png Defense Matrix is useful against all incoming projectiles, protecting her teammates from enemy fire. The Ability-<strong>dva7<\/strong>.png Micro Missiles deal high amount of damage when used in close range. She is a dangerous flanker in the Tank class, dealing consistent damage to the enemy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ability-dva4.png Self-Destruct<\/strong> will wipe all opponents within the blast area. However, she doesn&#8217;t have an extended barrier to properly protect her team like Reinhardt. She is also slow while firing, allowing the enemy to outrun her to disengage or move around her to distract her aiming. Both <strong>Ability-dva1.png Fusion Cannons<\/strong> and Ability-dva7.png Micro Missiles are ineffective against anything further than medium-range, meaning she can be outranged by the enemy before she even has a chance to close a gap with Ability-dva2.png Boosters.<\/p>\n<h6>D.Va And New Overwatch 2 heroes\u00a0<\/h6>\n<p>The New Blood comic series has been a hit with fans. The Dark Horse comics follow Cole Cassidy on his quest to recruit new members to Overwatch to take on the Null Sector and Talon threat.<\/p>\n<p>On March 15, the fifth and final chapter debuted and sees <strong>D.Va<\/strong> and the rest of the MEKA Squad fight an army of omnics, but things get dramatic when the Korean hero\u2019s boss wouldn\u2019t let her work with <strong>Overwatch<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>While we advise you check out the comic on your own, if you don\u2019t mind spoilers and what this could mean for <strong>Overwatch 2,<\/strong> continue reading down below.<\/p>\n<p>As the battle raged and the MEKA force found themselves in danger, Cassidy, Pharah, Zarya, and Baptiste showed up to save the day.<\/p>\n<p>Once the dust settled, <strong>D.Va<\/strong> was allowed by her superior to work with Overwatch and leave with them, while the rest of MEKA group would stay in Korea.<\/p>\n<p>However, before taking off, Cassidy gave the leader some data on all the threats they\u2019ve faced so far, suggesting that this isn\u2019t the last we\u2019ll see of her or the rest of the Korean pilots.<\/p>\n<p>The four members of MEKA who could become playable heroes are Casino, King, Overlord, and D.Mon. Interestingly, the latter actually had official concept art made showing what she could be like as an actual in-game character.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, it may be sometime before more MEKA squad members and <strong>d.va<\/strong> are playable in <strong>Overwatch 2<\/strong> as only one new hero, Sojourn, will be available in the OW2 beta come April. Still, the devs are teasing plenty of tanks and supports in development for future beta iterations, so there\u2019s a chance we see them in action later on in 2022. We\u2019ll just have to see what the future holds.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1652122577854\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Is Overwatch 2 a real game?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Overwatch 2 was first announced back at BlizzCon 2019, and updates on what to expect from the title were thin on the ground for a long while.
