Overwatch's brand new character Orisa arrives to the game today, but for those hoping to play the new character on competitive, there's bad news, as she'll be unavailable on competitive for a week, as announced by principal designer Scott Mercer on Battle.net yesterday.
"When patch 1.9 releases tomorrow, Orisa will not initially be available for Competitive Play. We want to give players some time to learn about and play Orisa before she's placed into the crucible of Competitive Play," he explained. "She'll still be immediately available in Quick Play, the Arcade (including custom games with the competitive ruleset), and Play vs. AI."
Do you think Blizzard should have let Orisa go straight to competitive?
