Overwatch devs took one look at Jetpack Cat and Bastion's combo and went 'oh, that's a little scary'

Almost a year ago now, Team 4 debuted a new kind of Overwatch, and as part of the huge spotlight we learned that the live service FPS would undergo a new cadence with yearly themes comprising several seasons. Five new heroes were also added straight away; Mizuki, Emre, Anran, Domina, and of course Jetpack Cat.

Ahead of being added to the game, Overwatch's community was overjoyed to see Jetpack Cat, an adorable little ginger kitty in a flying mech—what's not to love? But sentiment quickly shifted after she took to the battlefield. Jetpack Cat broke the game with her new Apache helicopter meta which saw her haul Bastion high into the air so he could gun down the entire enemy team while in turret mode, it was truly horrific.
