Symmetra is fairly effective if nobody on the attacking team is willing to spend 5 seconds to kill the shield generator.

Sym really needs some tweaking. She's crap in random and only ok in normal if defending, then crap again for a bit if you lose a point and need to set up turrets again

Who cares about turrets? It's the extra 150 health that turns the enemy team into a bunch of beefy bois.

How good would it be if Symmetra turrets had a small heal that didn’t stack?

Rand Brittain posted:How good would it be if Symmetra turrets had a small heal that didn’t stack? It's been talked about since early release. Healing players, or applying a shield if they're in range, anything to make Symmetra a support instead of a Defensive class. They could tune it so she won't be a powerhouse, but it's much harder because she's apparently effective enough on console.

She's effective enough on PC, people just insist on using her on wide open attack maps which is dumb and has soured peoples opinion of her.

dogstile posted:She's effective enough on PC, people just insist on using her on wide open attack maps which is dumb and has soured peoples opinion of her. She's a niche hero and the point of her rework last year was to keep her from being a niche hero. They actually said she could use photon barrier to "lead the charge" on attack through a chokepoint back then. She's not supposed to be a defense hero playable only in a handful of maps, Blizzard just really sucked at making her anything but that. She needs some numbers changed here if she's going to be more than a joke meme hero and a mercy-tier overhaul if she's going to be a non-healing support.

Speaking of characters who need re-work, when they ever going to fix Sombra. I really want to play her, but almost guarantee if I play her in a match, we will lose.

Mei is the #1 character they should buff in my book. We've all seen the charts, she's near the bottom in heroes played. But Mei is bae! I demand Mei be meta. True Sombra could use it too though.

Everytime a Sombra buff is requested, Genji is given another buff instead.

Symmetra can be really good at taking out turrets or forcing a Bastion to move with her barrier and a few charged shots.

Sombra's been out for more than a year and it's still a novelty to see someone use her in earnest because it's so rare. Doomfist's in that zone too, they need to figure those two out.

Still amazed how well Moira came out of minus her issues with turrets withstanding. Orisa had a few missteps at first but after a few adjustments and she a pretty great tank to play as.

He would have been Op if he had gone to release with the hitbox bug. But for now he's too risky to be picked because slightly missing your wall-punch means you're not even going to trade in a fight.

he was more than pretty good at release. actually iirc he was basically the only thing they played in pro games until the nerf hit blizzard dumpster'd him on the level of the roadhog rework or the old soldier nerf

Even with how bad they hosed up the punch hitbox, I with they didn't mess with how uppercut and slam worked together for mobility. He just felt super fun to play, chaining his abilities to fling yourself across the map. You can still do this but he's clunky as hell now

The interseasonal migration of compers into qp and the resulting salt is pretty drat weird. Blizz making comp off-season during a winter break period is pretty drat dumb. I maintain that the saltiest players of all are ptr qp players.
