Sombra just got “nerfed into void” but NO , she didn’t : [It’s an opinion ]
Now , you move slower in Stealth Mode , at first she was faster then a space ship , way too easy for her to escape from a fight .
About the Gap-Jumps , I really have nothing to say , it’s really stupid
Now , people can hear you from 4 meters away NOT 2 . Really not affecting anyone .
You can’t contest THE POINT IN STEALTH MODE . THIS is the best thing ever . I lost so many seconds on the point only for finding a Sombra who is invisible in one corner . That let’s her contest for her whole team to arrive .
Now the Translocator can be destroyed by the enemies , it’s not like you weren’t camped by widow’s and hanzo’s
The loud beeping is very stupid , I admit .
The translocator has now 2 different visual effects so it makes it easy to spot mid air , but It can’t be destroyed mid air [ remember that ] .
The 4 meteors thing is literally the size of a Tank. So if a healer were next to their tank they would see you,which wouldn’t be good. Translocator now must be placed far far away from enemies or they will hear those ridiculous beeps that are way too loud. You can now literally destroy a translator without even knowing.
I’ll probably be suspended for ‘harassment’ or something stupid like that. They won’t be able to hide it though. All the other Sombra mains are being vocal about these issues.
No. Not really. If a Sombra went invisible infront of you, it was pretty easy to uninvis her. 33% movement speed reduction or not. It was never a great disengage, especially in the middle of combat, with the amount of splash damage and 1 damage bullet spray in the game that’d immediately uninvis you.
Flank routes are (or were) pretty important for Sombra. It’s not stupid, it’s how we play our anti-flanker flanker. Though, being able to walk everywhere does make her significantly easier. Who asked for that?
This makes her have to play more passive and is probably one of the most unnecessary nerfs ever. Remember when Sombra was a stealthy charater?
This is just a nerf? They literally removed her speciality (stalling points) and you’re saying this is good? Your phrasing of this just sounds like someone who didn’t play Sombra and is annoyed that an annoying hero made your games more annoying. She did her job. Not broken.
This made her survivability in combat decrease because she’s lost her lifeline and is now literally in the enemy backline?
Yes. Another nerf. Remember when Sombra was a stealthy character?
Yes. Another nerf. Remember when Sombra was a stealthy character?
They made her easier. She can do everything she could before, but has to be more passive by default and has less impact.
This is another BIG THING. Flank routes are VERY important to Sombra’s character and now she can’t even use most of them. I don’t understand what they are doing to her.
besides making her easier
This will not affect how many use her. She will be played less.
I want to start off by saying that I am not a Sombra player. I barely play her. In around 500+ hours on this game I’ve only logged about 10 hours on Sombra.
It actually isn’t really that easy for Sombra to escape the fight unless she has her translocator up. If you try to enter stealth when someone is dueling you, they’ll just spam around the general area and likely pull you out of stealth, leaving you completely defenceless.
How? They allow her to do her job as a flanker.
Spam damage all around the point. There’s a high chance you’ll catch her fairly easily.
There’s about a second where she slows down and is still visible before cloaking, more than enough time to land the 1 damage needed to break stealth.
Not hear, see. For reference, this is what it looks like Twitch
Sombra has no self sustainability without stealth or a health pack. Now, she can’t use stealth even though there are plenty of ways to decloak a Sombra, especially with the tanks.
There’s no reason for this nerf other than so people don’t wait for half a minute before Sombra translocates back. Her and Junkrat are the only characters now that can have their escape completely destroyed.
Again, another pointless change that makes it easier to keep track of Sombra, despite stealth being the whole point of her character.
She got 3 buffs (assuming you count being able to destroy her translocator as a buff) in return for 4 nerfs. This is not a buff in any way.
at first she was faster then a space ship , way too easy for her to escape from a fight .
Yes, not being able to use it in fights because a single shot interrupts it sure made it a spaceship worthy speed…
Now , people can hear you from 4 meters away NOT 2 . Really not affecting anyone .
See you, not hear you, SEE YOU. 4 meters, just an FYI, Winston’s bubble is 5M radius… take away 1 meter from it and you have the enormous range people can see Sombra.
You can’t contest THE POINT IN STEALTH MODE . THIS is the best thing ever . I lost so many seconds on the point only for finding a Sombra who is invisible in one corner . That let’s her contest for her whole team to arrive .
God forbid someone could utilize her abilities to at least stall capping if she is unable to make a significant impact in team fights to begin with…
Now the Translocator can be destroyed by the enemies , it’s not like you weren’t camped by widow’s and hanzo’s
No more translocator baiting, no more instant translocate and emp into the enemy team, no more using the translocator offensively period.
Sombra just got “nerfed into void” but NO , she didn’t
Again the gap change is stupid , not her ability to do that .
And it was an opinion , and I know I said it like " I know what im saying " but I really didn’t mean that . [ just saying , if you don’t believe me it’s… your problem ]
