Blizzard is known for their frequent updates to their games, but this year’s Overwatch 2 patch notes took things to the extreme.

While these changes are unlikely to become permanent, they’re definitely worth a laugh.

It’s a funny take on the game’s democratic system and is sure to keep players on their toes.
