I don’t care if they were bad. Old Torb and Sym were fun

Both of these characters got reworked because they were meme picks and had low pick rates. Now they are more generic, still not viable but less fun.

The upgrading mechanic on torb was fun and it’s really sad that level 3 turret doesn’t exist in any capacity anymore. I like his current ultimate but his overloading ability is just a generic temporary speed and health boost to make him “viable”. I’d trade that for some cool turret upgrading any day.

Sym has always been kinda a mess but I wish they kept her as a support instead of a dps nobody ever plays. Her old teleport was awesome utility. Currently it requires a key to use so nobody uses it. Current syms ultimate is basically a support ultimate anyways lets be honest.

The thing is that Sym was good in high ranks. Or at least better than current Sym is. Sym 2.0 had two dozen T500 players or so.

People started to use Sym 3.0 more and she was kneejerk nerfed in 9 days for it lol

Not only that but Sym 2.0 (the complete version of Sym 1.0) was pretty much a defense hero more than a support and worked much better as the former than the later.
