"It certainly became a goal" for Brigitte to counter the dive meta

We’ve had nearly two months with Overwatch’s newest hero, Brigitte Lindholm, so we thought it was about time we talked to the team at Blizzard about the thinking behind her design and what she signifies for the future of the game.

We talked with lead designer Geoff Goodman and senior designer Michael Chu about counter-dive, hybrid supports, and, most importantly, we found out the name of one of Brigitte’s cats… that’s right cats plural.

With Brigitte now out in the wild, Blizzard are overhauling Symettra to become a defence hero.
