Since we can give 4 buffs at once to an avg hero, what can we give Sym?

6 buffs? 8?

What about all the other actual underpowered heroes? The ones who actually need help?

Oh yeah, they don’t give OWL viewers flashy blade plays.

If 4 can be given to an average hero, does this mean overpowered heroes can still get a buff or 2?

Sym really needs a longer teleport distance and a lower cooldown on turrents. A lot of people say the gun isn’t good but it completely destroys shields so I don’t think that her beam needs to be changed

Personally I think a longer beam with more stage 1 damage (stage 2 and 3 the same) is something she needs, as well as TP changes.

I’d rather not buff the turrets since they’re easy to shut down in high ranks, and supposedly tough to deal with in low ranks.

We can give her a sticker that says you better hope for some luck in OW2.

Then a much smaller sticker on that sticker that is a laughing while crying emoji.

How about 2 nerfs, a nerf disguised as a buff, and a bug fix that makes her worse?

– The OW team, probably

I just hope she gets reworked again in overwatch 2, she needs a clear design path not this, she deserves so much more

Think her orbs just need to go through shields again. Not sure why that was removed for the less than ideal, but certainly iconic, stronger/more consistent left click beam (compared to her older beam).

Except Zarya. She’s buff already.

I personally believe that they need to concentrate on buffing/changing teleport. It’s supposed to be good and I’ve never felt like it was worthwhile teleporting constructs. I’d rather remove that, buff the teleport CD, and turret CD. I rather have an escape if I’m going to blink, not some weak taxi. I don’t like the tp bombs, they’re slow, really niche, and way too costly.

If I was going to do changes of turrets, I would remove damage completely. Give them a bubble shield, up the slow but only make it attached to 1 person, and lower cd so it’s up for defense. It’s a combination of her old barrier and turrets for survival and utility.

I would still prefer just buffing her always trash teleport, I don’t ask for much.

Blizz be looking at how many nerfs they can give her

and exucses to delete her turrets.

Are way more likely.

and there’s the reason yea
