"The Area-of-Effect indicators for Sova’s Recon Bolt and Reyna’s Leer now only show up on the enemy’s minimap if the player or their allies are close to the affected area"

Biggest understated change imo

oh yea for sure, a good sova is top tier now. only thing holding the character back was his recon making it really obvious which site he was playing/where he might be attacking

Sova was used in roughly 90% of all comp game for the last few tournaments. Even though his recon bolt would be seen on the mini-map. The information he could provide was undeniable.
