kind of hard to get rid of muscle memory, i keep on trying to hack the enemy especially at key moments thinking ill stop a rez or yea hack doomfist, hammond or sigma
i also have to get rid of that aggressive mentality, i think you really have to play her in a more defensive manner sometimes
She is way stronger, but also way easier and way more boring. I kinda hate it.
They can keep this version too but they should absolutely add back the DPS version.
I have no sympathy for people that won’t turn around or turn their sound on. If me a zenyatta main could never have an issue with Sombra then it isn’t her. At this point it’s just nerfing the game in general to make it easier to sell more skins. I hate it.
Same. I don’t hate her as a healer, but it’ll take time to get used to not hacking enemies. I will say, she’s kind of fun as a healer, BUT the translocator feels too short and way too stiff and clunky now. Not sure why they felt they needed to mess with that ability.
it is kind of cool but yea, i keep on telling myself that you have to heal instead of hack the enemy lol
ill get use to it but this time it will take a bit longer than virus sombra or losing your placeable translocator. i remember trying to set my translocator but then just going invisible all confused for a bit
Also, that cyberspace ability seems to only trigger when it hits the floor or a wall, which seems weird. Not sure why hitting a teammate or enemy wouldn’t trigger it.
How is she way more boring??? you are all over the place .. first you heal 2 ally .. then you go kill and enemy in the back line .. then you come back and heal .. and if your team is all over the place you can translocate to them faster than any other support in the game (expect maybe Kiri)
Ngl I’m not gonna be surprised if she’s now the opposite, getting a high banrate in high ranks and low ban rate in lower ranks lmao
Honestly it’s the opposite. I believe Kiri/Sombra is going to be the most frustrating backline in the game, especially if you are a dive dps/tank.
Imagine the salt when a Genji blades into the supports and both of them vanish or insta melt him.
Damn near worth the complaints we’ll get later once people figure out how demonic Sombra is now.
I’ve had cyberspace trigger on hero impact
I had some of that too. I would Hot-Fix a teammate then seconds later try to Hack an enemy, instinctually.
Luckily, B.O.B’s still Hackable 
It just feels like Blizz had no idea what to do with her so they came up with this. It would be like making Mercy a dps or Doomfist a tank.
Oh wait…
Big tip as a support main is think of using translocator+cyber space like Swift step+Suzu
Mechanically, she’s not quite the same and not as fun. She used to have to manage three abilities when dealing with enemies. Now you mostly just shoot at them and sometimes throw cyberspace at the ground. She’s still somewhat fun. I’ll still play her but probably won’t main her anymore.
They should reduce the DR on cyberspace to 25%. But then if you land a direct hit, it’s 50% on the struck target and the debuff and DOT stay on them for the full duration.
Lmao please make mercy a mobility based DPS
It is more fun to touch the butts of my enemy than to keep my team alive…
Ah well that’s okay broder. All well and good. I have no sympathy for people who know via being told countless times their hero is the most obnoxious hero in the game for.. well most of the playerbase. Who know that they are diminishing the fun of most other players 10x more than any other hero does. And instead of recognizing or accepting this as objectively true, ignore the blatant anti-fun and frustrating issues her kit has and forced onto everyone else and claim via insult to the majority of the playerbase, skill issue.
Claiming skill issue is foolish when your hero struggled to beat all ranks including bronzes. People do in fact turn around. People turn around and force sombra out or kill her more often than not.
Your hero was simply and objectively the fun police for almost everyone. Ye olde Sombra mains have got to stop claiming and insulting skill issue when all ranks had an above 50% winrate against her. Clearly the skill issue is on the Sombra. Along with the tedium issue. Because that is it. That is the problem. The tedium she brings to the lobby. Shooting air to spy check is the most tedious thing to force players to do. And if ya don’t do that, it’s just the waiting game to hear that hack noise.
T.E.D.I.U.M.
Good riddance I say, Huzzah!! Drinks are on me friends!
I preface this by saying I havent played the new Sombra so I’m not saying this to reflect a specific opinion one way or another… but it sounds like what you’re describing is largely just “actions per minute” which doesnt inherently making something less boring. That can certainly be your preference, and more power to you, but just based on your description you would not have piqued my interest, personally.
I have accidentally tried hacking a few times, but I am adapting quite well, unsurprisingly. The biggest problem is when your team is feeding and your finite resources bleed. I believe that is when it is time to go full DrunkJedi.
I admit, I’ve tried to hack an enemy out of habit. But I’m still really enjoying the rework
