“Sym what was that TP?!”

The feels when you put down a TP Bomb and your tank takes it like it’s going to go somewhere good and instantly dies.

If you want a TP please ask.

It really only happens with randoms now. My friends know better.

If we’re bypassing choke i’m very co-ordinated with my TPs.

Really it should be unless I say or unless you ask don’t take the TP.

Symmetra’s biggest issue with helping her team relocate outside of pre-planned routes is that people are now used to teleporter leading directly to enemies. In GM it’s just assumed that you don’t take the TP unless you really want to be in the enemy backline.

TP’s that people are supposed to take don’t lead into the heart of the enemy team, it’ll usually still be in a visible spot to take advantageous position like high ground. But symm is not responsible for those who take her teleport, if it goes bad you gotta get out yourself. But I cannot always see what’s on the other side of the teleport either, even if it’s advantageous route to take, such as Hanamura right side house on attack.

Thought it would be quite exceedingly funny to coordinate a whole team flanking the enemy team with a turretbomb in tow. But I don’t think that can ever happen as fluidly and fast as turretbombing requires.

TP bombing is going to be a huge waste with the new infinite teleporter. Probably a good idea to start practicing other uses for it now before it goes live.

Lmao I hate when people blame Sym for blindly taking a TP!

Like… Look where it goes before you take it guys unless I am telling you in VC to take it… chances are it’s not meant for you unless you see it useful.

Or you could just say ‘hey this is a bomb.’

You’re not always going to be playing with your friends.
They shouldn’t have to ask, you should tell.

Lol what?
That doesn’t make sense.
It’s not meant for you, but it’s useful for you…

tfw no one ever takes the teleporter when you want to help the team circumvent a guarded choke

but they always take it when you intend to turret bomb them

Sure it does. The player should look where it comes out… and be able to judge for themselves if it’s a good idea to go through or not.

Unless the Sym is forming a strategy with her team, don’t take her TP unless you know where it will take you. That is just common sense.

The number of times a Sym starts the match with “make sure to take my TPs” and then proceeds to only use them for turret bombing is ridiculous. I just plain don’t take TPs unless I am explicitly told to do so in voice chat, and I see a tank go in first.

And that’s exactly why that stupid TP bomb cheese had to go. I’m so glad it’s not that viable anymore, it really held back Sym’s utility potential.
