Sombra Lost Most of Her

So she’s more lethal overall?

nope. not possible. a sombra always seen, is not going to be that great. peopel wil always know where she is going. stealth at end of translocator and only for 5 seconds, basically kills her

And translocator being on a long cooldown. rip

[Shadow-119113]

I’m not understanding the point of this change, unless it’s to gutter Sombra.

So she has to use TL to engage, unless she’s gonna play as Wish.com76… but she won’t be able to escape or enter stealth without TL which is on a longer cooldown and needed to engage?

So what exactly is her gameplan? Just yolo in to hope you can trade for a Support? Also the change to no longer being destealthed from damage is completely pointless with only 5s of stealth regardless, and a longer TL cooldown. If you get tagged in stealth you’re dead, regardless if you “flicker” or get full revealed, because you don’t have TL available and will just get jumped immediately.

Well, Hack can still be interrupted and she’s on a timer now to get into a good position. She’ll be in the backline a bit less. But now you can’t knock her out of invis with anything so she’ll be pretty good at running.

It’s similar to her old play style. Get into position, wait for your cooldown to come back, and then engage. Kinda like how Reaper plays.

[NerfThis-11137]

So this is closer to something along the lines I was thinking

Sombra rework, more counterable, higher skill

It can work if invis was totally about escape tool and not engagement. Let’s say she goes invis when you tp and can glide like juno, invis lasts only 6 secs. Would probably make tp cd 5 secs. But outside tp you don’t get invis. How does that work , I think then virus can even be as it is now. As if you try to get first shot advantage you won’t have escape tool.

Sombra rework, more counterable, higher skill

It can if we make cd start after sombra comes out of invis after tp. yep there should be some cancel button, i really hate the current auto invis when playing actively you can actually see in this clip when i throw tp and want to attack junkrat she goes invis again and i have to shoot to get back and use cube. i liked the last tech were you had control. [Sombra Cool Cubesss] ya totally otherwise it would be too easy to kill, like its used that way in many games, even now s…

Now need to get the full picture

exactly this. Virus was the real issue

[Positive-11139]

Revert her translator back to its old function. This should have happened

[Zeron-11203]

I agree with this. but, if she cant be invisible to hack things, to get to health packs etc, its pointless. Might as wel as play S76 now

Get into position, wait for your cooldown to come back, and then engage.

However, Sombra no longer has stealth to sit and wait.

no way similar to her original playstyle. before u could CONTROL when to go into stealth to set up.

[CopShowGuy-1991]

Get into position behind cover or further behind the backline.

[GreyFalcon-11737]

@AngryPuckmen-1981

ahaha, told ya.

But ya no, if you take away her abilty to set up. Their going to put else ware.

Note.

You need to use Translocate to Stealth.

Meaning you can’t Stealth, then Translocate out.

[AngryPuckmen-1981]

Ya that’s what I’m saying, their taking her ability to set-up like at all.

In reality they should’ve never reworked her is now where I’m at. But this is another key example of community whining at its finest. Hate this current rework of her compared to the last one

Good job then.

That’s a tricky setup making dependant cooldowns.

[CopShowGuy-1991]

As a note: Translocator cooldown starts as soon as you throw the device. So you have your 5 seconds of stealth and only 2 second until you have another beacon ready to throw by the time stealth ends.

[StarGateHeav-2973]

tbh her translocator was on way too short of a cooldown as it was.

[AngryPuckmen-1981]

That still does suck, because you just removing your self from the fight for that time.

@StarGateHeav-2973

Eh not really, most mobility heroes have short cooldown tools, or like a stack of them in tracers/pharah’s case.

Why wouldn’t you engage with a tp are you chicken
