Revert Sombra LoS nerf

You sort of have to allow for it, especially as there’s apparently no fix for the LoS bugs incoming.

So you want Sombra to be able hack Reaper, Mei, Zenyatta and Moira if they use their invulnerability abilities and have Sombra hack Zarya, Reinhardt, Orisa and Brigitte if they use their shield just so Sombra’s hack can become more reliable?

I’m sorry, but I don’t think they want that.
They even mention this in the notes of the patch notes.

Developer Comments: We’re also removing the 0.1 second window of time during a hack where it couldn’t be canceled via line of sight or with other abilities including Tracer’s Recall and Zarya’s Particle Barrier, which was originally put in place so the hack wouldn’t be interrupted by small objects such as light posts. We’ve implemented a separate fix for that issue, so she should still be unaffected by those small objects.

I’m certain they have improved the LoS on her hack, but it is nowhere as consistent as her previous hack.

I think that they need to remove the 2s. cooldown on a failed hack allowing Sombra to hack right away if her hack was interrupted for now. I know this isn’t a solution, but it will somewhat make it easier for Sombra to hack players.

But how can they make her hack more consistent without adding the leniency?

Well, I think they should add another LoS check on it. One the left of her and one on the right on her. As long if both LoS aren’t interrupted then the hack shouldn’t be interrupted. Or they should make poles and such no longer objects that can break the LoS of all abilities in the game. I see no other ways to fix this without adding the leniency back.
