It is interesting how the teleporter has changed from an escape tool to a mobility tool with the adjustment. Sombra feels a bit less like a bs character and more like a stronger Tracer.
-
I feel the rework probably made her less anoying for tanks(which is good) but made her an even bigger menace to supports.
-
My only issue is the burst damage is so fast it doesn't matter if I'm playing with my team or not, I get killed from behind. I understand the idea is to punish poor positioning, but if every position is a poor position then it's pointless
-
Everyone playing Sombra: “I love the rework, it’s great”. Everyone else: “F*** the rework”
-
Honestly I’m glad sombra got a new ability instead of only her teleporter and invis lol
-
She is SO MUCH fun to play now. Aggressive, fast, impactful
-
Now she can actually flank and pick off healers, yet still be threatend by dps because of her stealth rework. The fact that i can actually see her as a threat and react to it fully because she has no gimmicky "teleport to safe spot" power is very nice. And now support actually need to work to play. Feels really good.
-
Just reached Diamond 3 as support using Moria, Ana and Illari. I feel personally that just using Illari against Sombra is one way to make her either pick your healing pylon or you. She's a full charge headshot and a semi second charge body shot away from death at all times and usually throws her translocator up in the air which allows the perfect opportunity to look up and see where she still is.
-
I’m a support main but I LOVE playing the new sombra! I also haven’t had much issues against her when I’m on support (could be my low elo) but honestly I think the rework was really really good
-
Im an ana main, so Im suffering. But, I really like this because it forces me to lock in and actually try and help my team more
-
Overall rework is a success! Not only did they create the exact playstyle (making her commit more) they wanted but also made her less annoying to play against and dare I say more fun to play as (virus is amazing and the new transolocator lets you zip around the map). It also increased the skill gap for sombra so no more teammates who are worth 1/3 of a teammate because they keep dipping before getting any vaule as her and no more annoying enemies who just sit there and only hack away.
-
I played a little with Sombra and my experience looks like this: If the enemy team is not really a team, she's dominating as she pretty much wins every 1v1, but if they are at least playing a little together your whole game looks like this: 7:05
-
Balance prediction: in the mid season patch they’re gonna take away sombra’s lethality because all the balance team people play support, and then sombra is going to go back to being about hacking the tank and it’s gonna suck
-
I think the biggest irony of the rework is it's made me a better Junkrat. I used to be more artillery, but this is the first time someone has so easily had the opportunity to pick me off in the back (since they immediately lock out my escape mines), so now I'm going in, landing more direct shots/two-taps and getting more healing alongside the tank.
-
While it is easier to punish her when she fails an ambush, i think she is too strong. I play a lot of support and i feel really anxious when they have a sombra, she can deal so well with 200hp targets now. You gotta have insane inhuman reactions or luck to not die. I guess they will have to do some tweaks on her kit but yea. Really strong character at the moment.
-
10:39 glad to know I’m not the only one whose messed up those two buttons yet 😂
-
Been facing Sombra and Mei 90% of the time since this patch. It feels absolutely miserable for any role that isn’t DPS
-
That 3:19 transition was clean ngl. The rework is fun to play except when you are support yourself :D
-
as a support main there are two things that really scare me 1 the new sombra 2 whoever that junkrat was at 5:45
-
Now you got me wanting to play Sombra.
