Overwatch 2: Release Date and Performance of Ramattra

Release Date of Ramattra

Released on December 7th, Season 2

Ramattra is scheduled to be released on December 7th, which is also the start date of Season 2. It is expected that like Kiriko, who was implemented as a new character, Ramattra can be unlocked by leveling up the Battle Pass or purchasing the Premium Pass.

Role of Ramattra

Tank character

Ramattra will be released as the 11th Tank character. With the increasing variety of Tank choices, let's look forward to how Ramattra can be utilized as a character in the future.

Features of Ramattra

Can transform into two forms

Ability	Effect
Nemesis Form Ability	・Cooldown: 8 seconds ・Lasts for 8 seconds ・Transforms into "Nemesis form" ・Grants 150 bonus armor

When using the ability "Nemesis form," Ramattra can transform from its normal "Omnic form" to "Nemesis form" for 8 seconds. Since the playstyle changes drastically upon transformation, it is important to be aware of the differences between the forms.

Omnic Form: The Form of Protection

Ability	Effect
Void Accelerator Main	・Ammunition: 100 rounds ・Fires projectiles continuously in a fixed pattern ・No distance falloff ・Slow projectile speed ・Headshot capable
Void Barrier Sub	・Cooldown: 15 seconds ・Durability: 1000 ・Can place a barrier at any desired location

The Omnic Form is the default form and is suitable for protecting allies. It can place barriers at any desired location, making it versatile for defending allies and blocking enemy lines of fire. The main firing mode has no distance falloff, making it ideal for suppressing enemies from medium to long range.

Nemesis Form is an offensive form

Ability	Effect
Pummel Main	・Ammo: Infinite ・Range: Approximately 10m ・Strikes forward with punches ・Emits energy waves when striking ・Energy waves penetrate barriers and Defense Matrix
Block Sub	・Significantly reduces damage from the front ・Also effective against continuous damage ・Decreases movement speed while active ・No cooldown

When transforming into Nemesis Form, the size of the body increases, and the main shooting becomes short-range, unable to deploy barriers. However, it is a form suitable for offense. Make use of the "Block" ability to grant bonus armor and reduce damage, charge into enemy territory, and dash towards the objective.

Pull Enemies to the Ground with "Greedy Vortex"

Ability	Effect
Greedy Vortex Ability	・ Cooldown: 12 seconds ・ Releases a ball and deploys a damage field ・ Reduces movement speed within the area ・ Nullifies jumping abilities of enemies within the area ・ Reflects off walls and enemies, activates upon touching the ground

Greedy Vortex is an ability that can be used in both forms. When used, it deploys a damage field and becomes the only ability that can nullify jumping abilities within the area. Depending on how it is used, it can become a very powerful ability.

ULT is the Opposite of Zenyatta's Area Healing, Dealing Area Damage

Ability	Effect
Anai Animation ULT	・Duration: 3 seconds ・Transforms into the Nemesis form upon activation ・Automatically attacks nearby enemies ・The duration of the ULT does not decrease while the automatic attacks are hitting

While Zenyatta's ULT is an area healing ability, Ramattra's ULT becomes an area damage ability. These two characters, who have a history of conflict, represent a ULT that symbolizes one seeking peace and the other seeking resolution through power.

Ramattra Character Compatibility

Good compatibility with Lucio's speed boost

Character	Expected Usage
Lúcio	- Support Nemesis form with Lúcio's speed boost

Ramattra's Nemesis form and Lúcio's speed boost have good compatibility. By supporting the Nemesis form's charge with the speed boost, it is possible to quickly capture the base.

Bad compatibility with Ana's status effects

Character	Expected Usage
Ana	- Easily inflict status effects on Ramattra's Nemesis form

It is expected that Ramattra's "Block" cannot prevent status effects, similar to Doomfist. When Ramattra becomes larger, it becomes easier to hit with Ana's ability "Sleep Dart," which can render him immobile for a certain period of time, making it easier to deal with Ramattra's aggressive approach.

Gain advantage against Winston

Character	Expected Usage
Winston	- Can disable Winston's "Jump Pack" with the ability "Greedy Vortex", making retreat impossible

Ramattra can be expected to be a meta character against Winston. The ability "Greedy Vortex" can disable Winston's crucial ability "Jump Pack", allowing for focused firepower.

Introduction to Ramattra

Fighting for the Persecuted Omnic

Ramattra fights for the Omnic who have been persecuted by humans. Originally created for war, Ramattra sought coexistence with humanity. However, witnessing the betrayal and downfall of the Omnic, Ramattra fought solely for the future of the Omnic.

Learned Doctrine at the Same Monastery as Zenyatta

Ramattra once studied doctrine at the Shangri-La Monastery, just like Zenyatta. Ramattra's ideal of seeking coexistence with humans was the same as Zenyatta's. However, due to persecution, Ramattra could only see the negative aspects of humanity and diverged from Zenyatta's path.

Leader of Null Sector

Ramattra serves as the leader of the terrorist organization "Null Sector" composed of Omnic. Null Sector's slogan is "No Humans," and they have fought against members of Overwatch during their attack on KingsRow.
