great day to all of the 7 symmetra mains (possibly 8) including me
Yeah where are all the people asking for this? Too busy playing her now I guess.
Sym/Mauga combo will just get it nerfed again soon.
You know… I thought I was barely going to feel it, but it’s actually kind of good. You really feel the faster tiering up. Whether that’s what she and the game needs… idk.
The way it doesn’t take half your ammo supply to get full charge is huge. I’m getting thicc beam at like 75/100. I love that she can actually use her primary again.
She’s gonna get giganerfed in 2 weeks
Everyone say thank you for the buff. This has been highly requested.
They don’t usually wait that long to dumpster her when she sees even the slightest increase in performance.
I fear we’ll see what happens come like, next Monday.
Hopefully. One of the most annoying heroes to play against. There is a reason they don’t make her a highly picked hero. Going to be a lot of complaints if her pick-rate goes up too much.
I thought the mood here would be more celebratory and thankful but it’s doom and gloom.
Sooner probably, give it a week.
To be fair, the past few times they have tried to make changes to her they have partially or fully reverted them. Or made her worse off. It’s been a hot minute since sym was allowed to be good beyond a week lol
The ramp is kindanutty now, at this point they should scrap the ramp and give her a decent consistent damage, shes just too feast or famine when trying to balance her
Sym mains prob already know shes about to b reverted and then nerf her max damage primary
wish they had buffed orbs instead
I hope she gets to retain her ramped up charge a little longer, other than that it’s amazing.
Only played 2 games with her so far
I am feasting
Won’t get to try the changes until after work.
Glad they’ve given her the buff she needed though.
Yeah same, her beam definitely feels better like this.
But yeah, if you’re full charge and you want to set up some turret/teleporter thing - you’ve most likely lost a charge by just doing that
This has been my exact issue. In 5v5 with people more spread out it’s more difficult to hold charge.
My experience with her so far is:
She’s not as bad as she once was, but she still lacks self sustain.
The extra shields is nice, but it doesn’t feel like it’s enough to allow her to get in close to do her job. The TP works for this, but it’s so telegraphed that by the time you use it, the enemy team knows what you’re up to. They know you want to get in and use that beam, and they shred you as soon as you step through.
The beam changes are nice, and you do feel like you get more bang for your buck with the primary, but the primary is still very dangerous to use. Your worth on the battlefield comes down to whether or not you’re being pocketed.
If you have an attentive support, you’ll do great things. If your support is laser focused on your tank, you’ll still end up spending the majority of your time running back from spawn.
