i agree, cast time is way too short. duration way too long and penalty of being interrupted is not enough.

(That’s just my personal feeling, but) I feel like after a while you can get yoused to the cast-time and have plenty of time to react… Unless you’re using a controller… Then you get hit by a sad feeling that “You’re about to get hacked, but there’s not much you can do at this point”

Eh… There is so much counter-play to it. Like, shoot her. Every character can do that outside of the melee based ones, basically. EMP on the other hand is over-powered, absolutely the best ultimate in the game unless you have no idea what you are talking about (and there are many of those people).

Actually Sombra can’t hack you for a good two or so seconds, and you’ll most likely be able to force her to escape

I have 30 hours on doomfist and I don’t think it’s overpowered I think it’s a ok abllity

thats what i mean the punishment of being interrupted is not enough, 2 secs? should be at least 4.
and before someone say ‘thats her core kit and bullets fly everyone ow is so easy to get hit!!! 4head’, i would agree to this back when she had a timer on translocator which meant she didnt have all the world to pick when to hack/engage.

Doesn’t matter, since pretty much everything else sucks about sombra.

Considering you can interrupt Hack with a small breeze and penalize Sombra for 2 seconds without a Hack, I would say those 6 seconds are well earned my friend.

Brigitte hasn’t even been dead for a day and Sombra’s already under fire. Great. Don’t you people ever stop

Shes being a target for a while already
I agree in the fact that they’ve had to make other parts of her kit, such as her damage/gun feel gimpy just to make up for how powerful an ability hack is.

6 second is an eternity, And then Sombra can chain it with EMP which can leave a player for 10+ (maximum 18) seconds without abilities. It sucks.

The issue for Sombra is that there are literally no statistics to back up nerfs. Her pickrate and winrate are meh at best

The biggest problem is the lack of fail penalty even though hack is no harder to land than any other secondary in the game, yet Sombras are treated like the favored child “Dont worry dear, your oppressive nightmare of a skill will only have a 2 second CD refresh in the unlikely event it actually gets interrupted”
you should have seen the crazy amount of threads on this forums about Sombra being dead upon her changes on ptr lol
It’s a 6 second silence dude. There’s a reason other games don’t have silence durations this long.
