the Clash game mode and unleash the power of ancient Egyptian gods with the new Mythic Anubis Reaper Hero Skin and the
upcoming Mythic Midnight Sun Ana Weapon Skin. And that’s not all—embark on this cosmic journey through the Premium
Battle Pass and collect ancient wonders including the Legendary Bast Doomfist and Oni Ana skins, and more. Let's dive
into the stellar features awaiting you in Season 12.
Juno Has Landed
Juno has touched down on Earth! Millions of players have already welcomed our first Martian, and they have been excited to play her again. Now she's ready to glide her way into the action and provide simultaneous healing and damage dealing as the new mobile Support hero, who has journeyed from her home planet of Mars to join the fray. Juno’s versatile Mediblaster and Pulsar Torpedoes enable her to deliver both healing to her allies and damage to her foes at the same time, making her a fantastic Support hero. Her Hyper Ring ability accelerates team movements for quick engagements and retreats, while her high mobility, enhanced by Martian Overboots, allows her to navigate the battlefield with unparalleled agility. Then unleash the power of your Orbital Ray and power up your teammates to burst through tough chokes and fortified defenses. Juno will be available for everyone when Season 12 launches, and you’ll be able to queue up and play her in Competitive Play. Be sure to tune in for more teases from our extraterrestrial visitor coming in the days ahead, including her premiere hero trailer on our official social channels.

Mid-Year Competitive Updates
This season is bringing all new Competitive Updates, as we reset the ranks to give everyone a fresh start and a new chance to work their way up the Competitive ranks. Also, as we mentioned in a previous Developer Update, we’re improving our Avoid as Teammate feature to give you a more tailored matching experience. Finally, we’ve taken your feedback for our Group Respawn in Quick Play and have new improvements coming for that feature as well. Stay tuned for more details in the next Director’s Take blog, coming this Friday from system designer Gavin Winter.Hero Balance Updates
We also have new incoming hero balance changes to shake things up for Season 12. We have been seeing a lot of mobile heroes become favorite go-to picks and have a huge advantage in the current state of the game, so we’re doing a pass to reduce the health on multiple Damage and Support heroes. Lifeweaver is also getting notable updates to improve the quality of the Petal Platform and how it can be counter-played, along with changes to Healing Blossom and Rejuvenating Dash. Look for these updates in our patch notes coming later next week.New Game Mode: Clash
Welcome to Clash, an adrenaline-pumping game mode that pits teams against each other in a relentless battle for dominance over multiple capture points. With dynamic spawns and streamlined map routes, heroes can spend more time in the heat of battle and less time running back to the front lines. Clash mode guarantees fast-paced, strategic gameplay, offering new challenges and opportunities for glory.
