New Sombra is gonna hard counter Grav+Dragon

And leave your team to fight 5v6. Nice strategy.
These changes are terrible simply because they encourage Sombra to be out of combat for longer.

i don’t think you understood my point

if you know how zarya works and her charge rate, also how many teamfights are won/lost you will know around when they will gravdragon

you don’t need to stand behind hanzo entire game if you have this gamesense

That sounds like they’ve basically taken all of the timing and strategy out of using her translocator and stealth that made her like… A nuanced and intricate character to master? Can’t tell if will be good or absolute garbage… IDK man, we’ll see I guess.

We just have to wait and see, so far I am liking the changes as I can see the cons and pros to it.

I just think it’s not a great counter, you’re needing a lot of things in order to pull it off, and it’s such a fast and strong team-wiping ult that something that needs so many variables in order to work at all isn’t really a ‘good’ counter. That’s my point. Even if you don’t mind her lurking behind him and waiting, being out of the team fight, because whatever, it’s still just like… A LOT to expect a Sombra to pull off in order to counter Gravidrag, IMO.

You already can sort of do this. Fitzy and Worstsombra did it multiple times. Though it will be easier once the changes go through. Can’t wait!

Working around timers that didn’t match up like her cooldowns isn’t nuanced it’s infuriating.

I didn’t find her cooldowns to be a problem, especially with the newer, longer times. I know a lot of people seem to have a hard time managing her cooldowns, but she had a really natural flow to me and I never seemed to be caught out badly with her. A lot of Sombra’s seem to use their translocator as a panic escape and don’t place it ahead of time, but that’s just poor kit usage.

actually it does not reaverl sombra if shes not behind the wall. if the sonic arrow is in the open and sombra walks in, she is not reaveld

33

You’ll end up hacking the zen or something cos los bugs STILL haven’t been solved

34

Oh really? I feel it shouldn’t be that way

35

And while you “counter” hanzo by waiting and being useless in stealth, their team will easily win the 5 vs 6.

36

OR… Symmetra just opens a portal and everyone exits the grav.

37

Don’t think so. If Sombra watching enemy Hanzo chances are it is making team fight 5v6. Sombra already has reputation for being non team-player type hero.

38

Good thing Sonic Arrow exists

I’m really against canceling one’s ult. They should revert that change. Instead, they should nerf Hanzo’s damage so his ult doesn’t charge as quick.
