Even Fitzy and Danteh are calling Sombra Bad/Weak now

[KazTehOne-1516]

We have changes going in for Sombra for our July patch. Most likely, the changes will show up on the PTR sometime next week or soon after that. They are pretty significant.

I’m not going to detail the changes for now as they are still in flux. But playtesting has gone well and we’re eager to improve her.

Hype! I’m really happy to see this.

[ASkeleton-21209]

Don’t derail the thread please, this is about Sombra, not supports.

[Amanda-13230]

hey jeff a little off topic, but are you considering looking into junkrat me and many other players dont feel like these are the right nerfs

also glad sombra is getting some love

[Deykar-2772]

Jeffrey Kaplan the big dog himself!

Edit: Seriously thank you from the bottom of my heart. This hero means so much to me.

Please god please don’t rework her. Significant bug fixes? Yes please. But don’t go ruining the soul of a hero just because you’re too proud to admit certain buffs were a mistake and simply revert.

[Azterikk-1988]

THANK YOU SO MUCH, JEFF!

[Arthur-13321]

oh no… nightmare of hacking is back…

[Ghostly-11411]

Oooh boy July patch, which means these buffs will come with the patch that contains Hero 28, huh. That’s double the hype.

[TheMaelstrom-11479]

it most likely is a rework that is lessening the impact hack/emp has significantly but buffing the rest of sombras kit and fixing her bugs

[Azterikk-1988]

Reworks take a long time, I doubt anything else is gonna happen besides some numbers changing and maybe that damage threshold we’ve been wanting.

[Lynx-13811]

I’d hope so but I don’t trust them and “significant” is a very worrying way of phrasing it.

[MeiRa-22568]

Hell yeah or she could come to live right before 28 goes PTR (like live tues, PTR thurs)

[Arthur-13321]

look at hanzo changes…
Storm hack is coming

[Froilen-1963]

we are watching very closely . good luck making everyone happy

[TheMaelstrom-11479]

i think its just going to be lessening hacks/emps impact and buffing her gun, teleport, stealth, and fixing her bugs

[Hokutoshin-1283]

ahh crapbaskets. Oh well, I was happy with less sombra around. Let’s see what happens in a few weeks.

[Andrew-11610]

fix hanzo while ur at it thanks

[sumstratTTV-2931]

Speaking about PTR, can you tell your guy to update the patchnotes so we know what we’re testing and what the changes are.
Thanks

[Demnetia-2948]

Muchisimas gracias Sr Klapan

[ASkeleton-21209]

Can you at least tell us what kind of changes they are?
Are they bugfixes? Gameplay improvements? A total rework?
Give us something to go on.
