hey guys sombra main here ama

characters that can go invisible are automatically my bane

I like sombra's character but I hate her abilities

it's like they're trying to compensate for the disaster that was the ARG by making her overpowered

couldnt sombra just hack into bastion and make him explode or whatever
also if sombra hacks a bastion in turret form is he stuck in turret form or does he go into recon

yeah he can't switch configurations and lucio is stuck on whatever song he's playing

Please stop nerfing lucio for no reason.

Thanks,

Dumbass

he's probably being nerfed because hes an almost essential part of nearly every team

She doesn't seem that overpowered on paper to be honest. At optimal range, she has less damage than Tracer and seemingly worse accuracy. She can teleport, but not instantly. I mean, she /could/ teleport instantly but she's not going to go very far. Yes, she can go invisible but there's like infinity plus 1 counters to this. Especially when you consider that she doesn't immediately go invisible. The first being that if she takes any damage she breaks stealth. Junkrat, Mei, Bastion, Winston, Zarya, D.Va, another Sombra and Reinhardt could probably easily accomplish that. Maybe even Roadhog by complete accident from some crazy stray projectile. She's also detected by Hanzo, Widowmaker, and another Sombra. Her hacking isn't instant and like her stealth, is also interrupted by damage. It seemingly has short range, maybe like, half hook range. This really only makes it useful against tanks, and still opens her up to abuse. Assuming it's a visible effect while she's attempting to do it, any of the tanks could just "Boop" her. Otherwise, it might actually have use.
And if you have complaints about her ult, you might as well not play Overwatch. Because other than Tracer, every hero's ult is bullstuff.

yeah my thoughts exactly

it is visible but i don't think you can see it when she's hacking from behind you

wait so guys
lets just go through this real quick
sombra can disable abilities
sombra can go invisible
bastions ability is to enter/exit turret mode

so, wouldnt sombra be able to basically insta kill any bastion now. its essentially pulling the same move as reaper, but bastion cant see you at all

It takes time for the hack to actually happen, taking damage stops it, and starting it breaks stealth. Your Reinhardt, assuming you're in cancer position, should be in third person and see this happening.

unless the reins fov is 1 like most of them

it seems at least one writer at pc gamer shares my sentiment that sombra is going to be frustrating as forget to play against; she can go invisible for 6 seconds every 6 seconds, teleport great distances, disables your abilities, and does considerable damage with her gun

obviously that's a blast to play yourself, but it's going to be obnoxious when you're playing against her, I'm really not looking forward to Spy paranoia coming back

I hope they do some serious balance work before she rolls out

the arcade is nice, I'm glad there's another way to get loot boxes now, I'm sure that's because people are going to be reaching max level in the near future (I've seen some level 1,000-1,200s myself already)
There were plenty of heroes that were obnoxious to fight against at release, and people cried "nerf!" (Mei and Bastion come to mind) until people figured out how to counter them.
Sombra will probably be obnoxious to fight against at the start, but once people figure out how to fight against her, it'll be fine.
She might need a few tweaks like Ana did after release, but Blizzard is a good dev, I doubt they were release a hero that is as broken as some people thing it'll be
