Thatās the only way people will stop complaining about Sombra. If sheās useful in any way, even in the most obscure fringe scenario, itās Literally The Worst Thing Ever and she needs to be turbonerfed into the ground.

Relax. Itās been one season.
I though sombra mains have got used to that for the past 7 years.
Sombra gets nerfed every time her mains figure out how to eke even the tiniest amount of value from her kit. Itās season 40 and Sombra has been ānot a throw pickā for two of them.

To awnser the question no changes for season 3 I think it said
To be fairā¦ the character is frustrating.
I know itās not what sombra players want to hear since it isnāt their faults, but dude, no one likes playing against sombra. Literally no one. Her kit is cheap as hell.
She didnāt used to be that way, but the changes to invis and translocator destroyed her āfairnessā factor.

So are Widow and Hanzo and Sojourn. Meanwhile, the nerf logs for those heroes are like āadjusted cooldowns by 1sā and Sombraās nerf logs are like half the library of Congress.

Sojourn has only existed for around 7 months.
Hanzo and widow are frustrating but still feel āāāfairā"" to a slight extent.

Season four. And not before apparently.
muh hero has every cheat code known in gaming evah, but i want my hero to be able to dmg on par with other heroes while using all cheatcodes.
u all bad booo!
How about talk about perma invisibility and hack while being invisible get traded for better gun dmg.
instead of pouting and saying oh muh hero needs buffsss.

Nobody asked for these, though. Sombra mains have largely asked for better mobility while in stealth, a way to stay in stealth under fire, and for hack to be strong utility.
Sombraās SMG damage would be fine, if she had more mid-fight presence and could stick around to use it. Even the nerfed OW2 output would be sufficient if she wasnāt bullied out constantly.

One shots are more frustrating to play against than sombra, and they keep doubling down on those instead of nerfing them.
ItĀ“s hard to fix her because when she is good, she makes other 4 or 5 heroes worthless
At least i can see widow, she canĀ“t appear behind me out of nonwhere and if i shoot her she canĀ“t tp away at infinite range and cleanse everything that was thrown into her

She wasnāt worthless in ow1. People who hated having a sombra on the team just didnāt know how to play with her. She required communication. I liked her in ow1, personally. Sure, she was really dependent on her team in securing kills, but at least she had her hack and could be annoying. Sombra isnāt even a threat atm. Hack is pointless unless youāre shutting down an ulti- hard to do and you pretty much have to follow someone around for that, & hope you dont touch a stray bullet that stops your hack. The utility of it for being a flanker is useless, no damage, might as well take away the invis & translocate since those are flanker things and sheās not good at that anymore.
A lot of heros can be frustrating. Itās frustrating that orisa wonāt die. Doom was allowed to exist since release as being the mobile, tanky, one shot heavy dps in the entire game. That was fun? Junkrat can be frustrating. Spamzo is annoying as hell. Mei can be annoying asf. Moira is annoying.
List goes on, if people want everything nerfed that challenges them what so ever in the game, then they should just uninstall tbh.
Iām pretty sure no one asked for hacking while invisible. I, personally, never saw the request. I even played her back in the day when her invis had a cooldown.
Who cares if she can hack while invisible atm when the hack lasts no time at all. She doesnāt even have time to kill you while youāre hacked. It solely exists to just up her damage to around ow1 levels (since it was nerfed for ow2) which was also garbage back then. Iām pretty sure most sombra mains would gladly trade that useless ability for damage or utility. People were saying for the longest time all she needed was a little spread reduction. Give a little of that, sure, trade it with some of the original hack time reduced, but both are just ridiculous. Anyone who thinks sombra is annoying atm just canāt handle their one track focuse being interrupted for, what is it now, .75 seconds or something? Feels like .01

The question is not whether sbra is currently underpowered she is , the question is she canāt be buffed without becoming annoying while perma invis and hack while invis is there.
Are sombra mains willing to ask for that instead of blatantly whining my hero is bad buff her, the issues have been raised on a few threads before apart from robot wizard and now you every other sbra main has been opposed to even talk about this and pull up platitudes like every hero is annoying and stuff.

I literally just said above I couldnāt care less. I JUST SAID ABOVE I played her back when invis was on cd. I just said above no one cares about hacking while invis, no one asked for that, they gave us that for ow2. She was still considered underpowered and a niche pick in ow1 with no cap on invis & a 5 second long hack because she had no damage. Now she has neither, idk why you think youāre making a point. Youāre not
