Sombra should not hack the ults

[Robert-24922]

@Nyxa-21603

If you must keep bringing that up, I will say what I said then

I am going to remind your words every time there’s a discussion like this.

@Nyxa-21603

I did not say that junkrat counters sombra

mhm

these are hilarious, I am never going to forget them, sorry

@Nyxa-21603

you just need to deal 1 point of damage during the 0.65 seconds cast time

to my question [quote=“Nyxa-21603, post:55, topic:853215”]

@Robert-24922

If sombra is hacking you on hanzo and junkrat, what do you?

you said

@Nyxa-21603

Shoot her, or punch her or do anything that can deal 1 point of damage, this cancels hack and makes sombra lose her element of surprise

here’s the original post. trickster is here too, what a surprise that same fanbois are defending sombra at the cost of their dignity.

I got the receipts, my boy. Make Sombra unplayable garbage again, please - General Discussion - Overwatch Forums (blizzard.com)

I am going to continue to argue with you only after you provide me a game code where you take out sombra from invis, during her hack, while she is invisible. Your own words, btw.

@Trickster-21129

You see, in ow1 wholehog was a channeled ability

Fair enough, but that’s not the only argument.

• Junker Queen’s Rampage: Hack or EMP (During cast animation only)
• Orisa’s Terra Surge: Hack or EMP (During wind-up animation/charge period)
• Reinhardt’s Earth Shatter: Hack or EMP (During the brief second of his cast animation, before his Hammer hits the ground)
• Sigma’s Gravitic Flux: Hack or EMP (During any point in which he is in the air/before the Flux slams down)
• Cassidy’s Deadeye: Hack or EMP (At any point before he releases to shoot)
• Hanzo’s Dragonstrike: Hack or EMP (During the very beginning of his cast animation, before the arrow is shot)
• Junkrat’s Rip-Tyre: Hack or EMP (During his cast animation where he pulls the tyre out. Nothing can be done once he takes control of the tire)
• Mei’s Blizzard: Hack or EMP (Hack can disable it during her cast/throw animation, but as of Season 4, EMP can disable Blizzard once casted)
• Pharah’s Rocket Barrage: Hack or EMP (Any time throughout the duration of her Ultimate)
• Reaper’s Death Blossom: Hack or EMP (Any time throughout the duration of his Ultimate)
• Sombra’s EMP: Hack or EMP (During the short window in her cast animation, before the purple AOE is created. If you miss your timing, you will simply Hack the enemy Sombra after she EMP’s, or EMP on top of her EMP, which won’t cancel it out.)
• Tracer’s Pulse Bomb: Hack or EMP (During the first second of her cast animation, before she sticks the bomb to anyone)
• Baptiste’s Amplifcation Matrix: EMP (Hack won’t do anything, but you can cancel his Ultimate or remove it at any point after casting with EMP.)
• Wrecking Ball’s Minefield: Hack or EMP (You can Hack Ball during his cast animation to cancel Minefield, and you can also EMP over top of the mines before they activate to cancel them out/stop them from activating.)
• Symmetra’s Photon Barrier: EMP (You can’t cancel Photon Barrier’s cast with Hack, but you can instantly remove the wall once it’s up with EMP.)
• Kiriko’s Kitsune Rush: Hack or EMP (During her cast animation, before the Kitsune emerges.)
• Lucio’s Sound Barrier: Hack or EMP (You can Hack or EMP Lucio during the cast animation of Sound Barrier, at any point before he hits the ground to cancel it.)
• Moira’s Coalescence: Hack or EMP (Any time throughout the duration of her Ultimate)
• D.Va’s Re-Mech: Hack (You can stop Baby D.Va during the cast animation of summoning her mech again with a well-timed hack. This must be timed before the mech hits the ground for her to climb into.)
• Ana’s Nano Boost: Hack or EMP (In the very slim window of her cast animation, before she’s able to call out her voice line)
• Ashe’s B.O.B: Hack or EMP (You can hack Ashe out of summoning B.O.B if you time the hack during her cast animation. Otherwise, you can take B.O.B out of the team fight for a number of seconds by hacking or EMPing him.)

Are these all the same category then?

@FonkyMonkey-11402

“Just kill her” is not an excuse

It’s an excuse if you are a sombra fanboi without rational thinking.

@MoreBullets-1793

If you’re going to do your research, look for up to date information because the wiki is often fan made and not updated by some blizzard employee.

The info on this is not very consistent either. Some ultimate types I couldn’t find at all, like Moira’s. Even so, EMP hacks some gadgets and doesn’t hack the tree, for example. Which is a gadget, and it was hackable before. And symm turrets can’t be hacked manually too, according to wiki. How is this consistent?

@OGgiraffrey-1466

Sombra has countered sigmas ult since the release of sigma. This isn’t new to ow2.

It’s just you solo tank now and kina want to have a privilege of having an ult too.

@Somvra-1200

The one change I do not understand was the changes to hack and Mei’s Blizzard and Lifeweaver’s Tree of Life changes.

Because it’s inconsistent. You can find 2 matches in hundreds, but still it doesn’t come up with any logic. There’s a little bit logic, like channeled ones are canceled, I get that, but it’s not 100% correct or consistent. I am happy that you have a Sombra portrait, but you acknowledge that.
