Overwatch's popular tank hero D.Va was temporarily disabled from active play recently following reports of a bug that rendered the game virtually unplayable.

Players reported that leaving D.Va's mech would cause the game to restart at a completely new location, while others claimed that dying while playing the character would result in a red screen that obscured the game and forced them to restart.
These issues began with Overwatch's latest update, which rolled out just yesterday. The update applied the latest changes to capture point percentages (now requiring 33% in the event of a tie) and implemented a number of routine bug fixes related to the arcade game mode and numerous heroes. It also, apparently, fundamentally broke D.Va.
While bizarre, the issue must not have been too complicated, for the Overwatch Twitter account reported the problem solved within only a few hours.

Fans of the Korean eSports Hero should be relieved to play their favorite character again. As D.Va herself often says, "GLHF!"
