Tychus and Valla slated for changes

Community manager Trikslyr confirmed some upcoming changes to these two heroes, including a change to the newest battleground, Braxis Holdout.

Machines of War is bringing loads of content and balance changes to the Nexus with an emphasis on revamping some of the oldest heroes where they need it most. Nazeebo and Chen are completely reworked in the current PTR and most people agree that the changes are positive (though Nazeebo is still up for debate), however, Tychus and Valla fans have made their concerns known on the battle.net forums.

Their fears were put to rest with these official responses from Trikslyr:

B.net forum post on Tychus:

Odin could probably use a little love. We're looking at some options internally to make picking the heroic more enticing.”

B.net forum post on Valla

Thanks for the feedback on Valla. We have a few slight buffs coming out in the coming weeks to help her, as we think she's under-performing.”

B.net forum post on Braxis Holdout:

We're not quite hitting the results we were aiming for with Braxis Holdout. In an upcoming patch, we'll be reducing the strength of the Swarm in early-game and mid-game. We'll also be increasing the strength of the Swarm in late-game.  Hopefully, the pushing power of the swarm will feel more manageable after the update.”
