No shot they're considering *NERFING* Sym and Torb?

What I read:
We put everyone in bronze and because of that sym and torb slaughtered them. These characters aren’t viable at higher level play but now we will be making them not viable at lower level play as well. Have a nice day.

I want everyone who told Symm players to “just adapt” to line up and apologize right now.

I’m going to become a Hanzo main, I’m done. Hanzo doesn’t ever have these problems.

And that’s despite me playing Sym for fun and losing hard. Those 4 sym mains are carrying the entire character.

Her sentries already deal no damage. Most of her damage right now comes from beam and orbs, which have to be aimed.

“Their winrates are gradually increasing”

Could mean from 10% to 20%

Don’t forget the beam is shorter than Zarya’s (WHY AM I BEING OUTRANGED ON DPS BY A TANK) and needs to be charged and also loses charge faster now and doesn’t headshot!

But think of the poor Genji mains unable to shuriken-spam and farm blade so they can just slaughter supports uncontested

Torb IS the best counter to the tunnel vision flankers who are trying to be mlg esport all-star heroes, but in OW2, that ends the minute the other team is forced to get their crap together and push.

Uh…Tanks are supposed to make space? How can they make space if they have low range? I suppose the answer is mobility, but Zarya doesn’t have that either.

Your trolling if you think two bubbles is going to allow you to walk towards any enemy without feeding or dying.

The real issue is that sym’s damage is poor, takes a long time to charge, and generally isn’t worth it in the end.

People have different aesthetics and enjoy different gameplays. It has nothing to do with being good or bad.

In OW1 tanks made space by being hard to kill and being dangerous at close range.

In OW2, tanks do not make space, at all, they are door kickers, initiators. This is also why defense heroes are so bad, no tanks to draw a line in the sand as it were, no specific area to deny or defend.

torb does need to be nerfed but sojourn needs nerfing along with genji and junkrat they need to quit listening to stupid freaking owl thats ruined the game

The Blizzard dartboard. They just throw darts and decide on that.

How and why did people expect the same developers to be better at balancing?

Wait, this can’t be real :sob: they already gave her a ton of shadow nerfs lmao

They are ruining heroes because they are too good against people who are bad, who arent even the majority.

So, they’re thinking about nerfing them because they’re being picked to counter Genji? what?

:thinking: but genji’s pickrate soaring through the roof since OW2 is called “popularity” ok

Blizzard only listens to maybe 12 streamers. Whatever they say blizz does. They do not care about players as a whole. It’s been like this since 2018

Gotta make those people playing genji happy so they grind and pump cash for that mythic skin.

Damn, i just noticed my sym win rate is at 78%. i guess it’s because i only pick her on these FEW really specific maps where she really shines at like lijang and end up mostly winning there everytime because of it.
