"Zenyatta is an omnic guru who wants to prove his purpose of mending the problems between humans and omnics through interpersonal connection and engagement.

Zenyatta calls upon orbs of harmony and discord to heal his teammates and weaken his opponents, all while pursuing a transcendent state of immunity to damage." - Overwatch Wiki

I designed Zenyatta as a support who must strike a balance between his offensive and defensive capabilities, drawing from a limited pool of Orbs that allow him to use his abilities, but also empower his Auto-Attack and Damage/CC ability. Theoretically, Zenyatta could (talented) have his Orbs of Harmony and Discord out on every enemy and allied hero, but this would dramatically lower his damage output in exchange for that utility.

Overall, Zenyatta's strengths are Sustained Healing and Utility. His Orb Volley is a potentially powerful tool in ganks, as it can offer a sequence of crippling mini-stuns that would prevent/interrupt many movement and other abilities. Additionally, his Orb of Discord can lower enemy armor, but can be shaken off by leaving Zenyatta's vision range - making him useful at zoning targets away from static points. Zenyatta can be an effective duelist, as in a 1 on 1 his orbs will boost his damage while still granting him high sustain and lowering his enemy's armor. That said he lacks any meaningful finishers, so will not have the kill potential of, say, Karazim.

Combat Trait

Orbs of Balance

Zenyatta does not use mana. Instead, all of his basic abilities draw from a finite number of Orbs which are visually represented in a floating ring around him. By default, Zenyatta has 8 Orbs with an additional 9th Orb visually rotating around him but held in reserve for his auto-attack.

The more orbs available to Zenyatta (EG: not in use by basic abilities) the faster his auto-attack speed. Each orb grants 10% attack speed, up to an 80% bonus. Zenyatta can activate his trait to recall all active orbs.

If no orbs are available, Zenyatta's basic abilities cannot be used. Mounting removes active orbs automatically, but does not place trait on CD.

Cooldown: 15 Seconds

Primary Abilities

Orb Volley

After channeling, Zenyatta launches up to 4 Orbs in rapid fire at a target within a range of 3 units. Each orb deals 60 damage to the target.

Zenyatta *must* channel for at least .5 seconds and *can* channel up to 1.5 seconds. Each .1 Second adds 1 damage (up to 15). All damage scales at 4%. If Zenyatta completes the channel, each orb stuns his target for .1 seconds.

There is a .3 second delay between orb impacts.

The Orbs used for this ability are rendered Inactive for a total of 4 seconds.

Cooldown: 10 seconds (from end of channel)

Orb of Harmony

Zenyatta places 1 Orb on an ally in vision range. If the ally leaves Zenyatta's vision range, the orb returns after 2 seconds.

While active, the Orb heals the ally for 5% of their Maximum Health in a single tick once every 2 seconds.

There is no limit to how many Orbs of Harmony Zenyatta can have active at once, but only one can be active on a given hero at once.

Cooldown: 6 Seconds

Orb of Discord

Zenyatta places 1 Orb on an enemy in vision range. If the enemy leaves Zenyatta's vision range, the Orb returns after 1 second.

While active, the Orb reduces the enemy's armor by 10.

There is no limit to how many Orbs of Discord Zenyatta can have active at once, but only one can be active on a given hero at once.

Cooldown: 8 Seconds

Heroic Abilities

Transcendence

Zenyatta's Heroic ability has no cooldown, but instead gains charges. Anytime Zenyatta's orbs damage an enemy (includes AAs) or heal an ally, his ultimate gains .5% charge.

When Activated, Zenyatta gains 50 Armor and is rooted in place. He heals all allies within a range of 4 units by 10% of their Maximum Health over 3 seconds.

Healing is delivered in 5 ticks each tick consumes 20% of the charge of the ability. Zenyatta cannot cancel the ability prematurely but it can be canceled by stuns or silences.
