September 10 hotfix fixes Ramattra, Jetpack Cat and Vendetta bugs

Three ability fixes follow the midseason patch, while Blizzard says September 8 replay codes remain available.

A correction to unintended behavior

Blizzard's September 10 entry fixes an unintended detonation delay on Ramattra's Ravenous Vortex, a problem with Jetpack Cat's Purr passing through barriers, and a range issue affecting Vendetta's Palatine Fang. The entry presents these as bug fixes, not as a fresh set of intended damage or cooldown buffs.

That difference is worth preserving when discussing a hero after a large patch. A broken interaction can make a hero feel stronger or weaker than the balance notes intend. Restoring that interaction is not automatically evidence that Blizzard reversed the entire preceding balance pass.

What this means for replay review

The same hotfix entry says September 8 replay codes remain available. If you were reviewing a tournament preparation match or comparing an ability before and after the correction, this particular update did not require treating those codes as wiped.

That is a dated assurance, not a permanent guarantee. A later September update did clear replay codes, so anyone reading this archive now should check the newest patch entry before promising that an older replay can still be loaded. When reporting a suspected bug, include the match date and the exact interaction rather than only saying that the hero feels different. It makes the report distinguishable from the intended midseason changes.
