Sombra is Not OP -- Here's Why

She is NOT overpowered. She is finally in that disrupter spot she needed to be in. It’s like saying Ana is OP because she can make you unabled to be healed. She’s an actual flanker/DPS now; shes on par with heroes like Doomfist, Genji, Reaper, and Tracer. I’m saying this as a Sombra main from seasons 3 to 7. (stopped playing her because she just wasn’t that good in the Mercy meta)

She’s been live for a few hours. No one is in a position to say if she’s OP or not.

What would happen? An underpowered “EMP bot” hero that is only viable if the team takes damage and walks back and forth from a health kit? This is good. She can actually be an alternative to Genji, Tracer etc.

Agreed, she is FINE. Kids just whine about everything these days

Putting Reaper and Tracer on the same level is a stretch. Reaper is pretty bad. Sombra is on par with McCree in my opinion.

I completely agree with you

my only worry is that she can jump above and hack rein’s shield. We may have another Orisa Winston meta

As long as any hero counters healers or genji/tracer, people will complain.

The only time reaper is good is when the other team is terrible and doesn’t know how to keep a distance. He’s barely had any play in OWL; when he did he got 1 shot lol

Healers don’t need more counters than there already are though?

Genji/ Tracer only have at MOST 2/3soft counters, now 3/4

Weow

A healer is a healer, and your tanks and other healer needs to peel for you if you get dived. Always go for the support.

WOW, it’s bearly live and the OP posts have started. She is NOT OP, you just have to actually pay attention to where she is what she is doing, instead of knowing she is at the health pack at all times until her ultimate is ready.

People read text and make assumptions. Time will reveal that Sombra won’t be picked a lot more then she is now.

Regardless of being a healer; they are already easy enough to take care of as is

In TF2 it was down to skill if you could take out the Medic. You could even 2 shot the Scout with the Crossbow as the Medic.

This game gives flankers EVERY possible advantage to being able to easily dispatch a support. Making that pool bigger AND easier isn’t a very welcome thing when there are still only FIVE healing support.

That people would call for nerfs, say she’s “anti-fun,” and then she’ll be Mercy’d.
