Overwatch: Widowmaker’s “frustration threshold” will soon be lowered

Blizzard is currently testing an internal McCree nerf, but it looks like one for Widowmaker is also in the works.

After the character was criticised on the Battle.net forums, Game Director Jeff Kaplan offered an update.

“Widowmaker is on our radar. We are discussing her,” he said. “We have some internal experiments going to see if we can keep her viable while lowering the frustration threshold a little bit. Right now, this is just exploration. If something more comes of it, we’ll let you know.”

Overwatch is currently available on Windows PC, Xbox One and PS4.
