If Sombra’s rework doesn’t remove hack…

This will be a complete and utter failure. High expectations for the OW2 presentation.

I’m pretty sure hack will be gone, I wonder what they’re going to do with Sombra :thinking:

Would love her to be made into a utility support with Sym, but I also think they are going to make her into a more assassin-y version of Tracer most likely

ffs.
Another good thing about OW thrown down the drain.

I think hack should stay, but be reworked into something less infuriating to play against. Perhaps it could offer more utility, or help secure kills by marking an enemy with wallhacks or something idk

When has hack ever been a good thing?

It’s extremely unfun to lose all of your abilities for several seconds

It’s either super OP busted or extremely bad and unviable for Sombra herself

It makes Sombra bad in low ranks and OP in high tier play

Like there’s legit no redeeming qualities of it. Just let her hack healthpacks only and make it have a different effect on players like a temporary discord orb debuff type thing

Unfortunately, you are likely correct.

Hack needs to stay.

It needs to stay because it’s a core part of her identity, what is a hacker who can’t hack? A nerd with no purpose.

Jokes aside, (and that bold statement is not a joke) Hack is a part of her, and I would be sad to see it go.

It could be reworked into something new for all I care, as long as her identity is kept intact.

Forget Sombra - what are they going to do with Doomfist and Hammond ?

They already designed them terribly, and now they are planning on removing the one character ability that renders them properly balanced.

Since Doomfist and Hammond were introduced.
Somehow, the devs thought it was a good idea to have characters that are both highly mobile AND Tanky.
Complete idiocy.

A disable is absolutely necessary for this game. They can lower the duration so it’s less oppressive, but it needs to stay.

Sick of babies who act like their primary fire doesn’t work when hacked trying to get this character neutered.

Dude, they just want overwatch to be another brainless FPS with no cc.

As someone with (I think) almost 250 hours on Sombra (go on, my profile is unlocked), I am bummed.

It’s what makes sombra unique.
And don’t just say ‘sombra is an anti-fun button’

“She’s anti-fun!”

Then a second later they’re angry at being chain Cc’d by Doom, booped around by Ball, or a Tracer runs circles around them.

Pick one. Do you want a hero who can deal with those 3 or not?

I actually pride myself on dueling Sombra as Bastion, while hacked… one of my favorite things when Sombra players don’t realize that I’m not stupid, and just walk at me in a straight line expecting a kill… only to be gunned down.

People need to think, use strategy… and actually develop as players.

Let’s just remove all of them

:eye: :lips: :eye:

… I can live with that.

Let’s be realistic here. They aren’t going away.
