what are you talking about? are you okay? brother the sombra wont hurt you i promise she isn’t real
Get off Zen then idk.
Imagine if zen didn’t have his weaknesses. He’d just be another full time tank buster on the field.
Sounds like a skill issue

Why turn Overwatch into any of these dead games?
- BattleBorn
- Bleeding Edge
- Gigantic
- Crucible
- Paragon
What’s a better business plan, trying to get players away from wildly successful games?
Or trying to get players from games that no longer exist?
They needed to nerf her translocator, not her damage. I had no problem with her being a super powerful assassin; my problem is(and always has been) her stupid get out of jail free card. It just doesnt work without a time limit like it used to have.
A sombra with even a quarter of a brain will never get killed because they can just translocate away from every losing fight.
Why not keep overwatch as overwatch instead of turning it to any other game successful or otherwise?
If Bobby Kotick could choose between:
- MOBAFPS = Lose 20% of the playerbase
- FPSMOBA = Gain 20% of the playerbase
Which choice do you think he’d go for?

torb turret is pretty decent against sombra and long range projectile heroes can destroy it with far less risk.
complaining about sombra after those huge nerfs is a skill issue. however losing to sombra as zen is not a skill issue, but an issue of being unwilling to swap.
Funny you say that, considering overwatch was very successful and started hemorrhaging players once they started going in this new direction.
See, I’d understand your viewpoint if overwatch was actually gaining players, but its not. So your point doesn’t really make sense. A lot of OG players that quit would still be playing if they didnt change the game so much.
If they need roughly 50% to 100% more Support players to fix Matchmaking issues.
Those players will almost exclusively come from existing Tank/DPS players.
The math doesn’t work without that, unless they magically pull in millions of Support players who aren’t currently playing Overwatch. But also don’t pull in other roles while doing that.
So Overwatch basically has the choice of
- Lose a ton of players to bad matchmaking
- Lose a ton of players by deleting Role Queue (and have to rebalance the entire game)
- Buff Supports directly and indirectly to get more Support players.
For the most part, other options besides those choices don’t exist.
The way you make it sound, the game is pretty much dead. Which in fairness id agree with.
I’d say it’s kinda in limbo right now.
But they got the Hotfix Balance Patch system online now, and they clearly are looking to solve matchmaker issues.
Most people are just kinda waiting around for Overwatch to be a desirable game to play again.

The issue is a lot of people aren’t gonna wait forever. Season 3 is my cutoff point.
Well that’s the thing, I expect them to start with basic Support changes in mid-January.
And then go into full Rework mode for Season 3.

They said theyd be addressing progression in season 3. If they don’t add anything worth playing for im probably done. Im not gonna sit here and twiddle my fingers. The time spent waiting for overwatch 2 in the first place was enough.
