Overwatch Classic Event Revives 2016 Gameplay for a Limited Time

TL;DR Summary
Overwatch 2's limited-time event, Overwatch Classic, reverts the game to its original 2016 state, reviving old strategies like Symmetra's "basketball of death." This tactic involved attaching turrets to basketballs in spawn areas, which could then be used to attack enemies. While nostalgic for some, the event highlights how Overwatch has evolved, balancing fun and chaos with improved game mechanics.
