Symm desperately needs toning down

There’s posts regarding this previously but now after the changes in Season 9 I think it’s more important than ever to re-tune Symmetra. Most of her kit is absolutely fine but one thing I would like reduced is her secondary fire damage and or projectile speed.

With hitboxes being slightly enlarged it’s now a lot easier to hit and be hit by this projectile and when you do, you lose almost 80% of your health from a single hit. I understand there’s a charge time but it makes no difference when she can hit you down 3 quarters of your HP and then finish you off with another while you’re engaged with someone else.

Since the update released it has become mandatory to eliminate Symmetra entirely before anyone else or you and most of your team die to her as she ramps up damage on her primary and knocks your health down with her secondary. I think honestly she needs a quick tone down because playing against her is exhausting. Her damage enables the attacking team on payload and hybrid to simply steam roll.

Going to defend sym on this one out of respect for the greatest sym player Portalz

As much as I hate beams, I don’t find sym oppressive with this patch and that’s me playing Dva.

I think she’s a much more balanced dps compared to the obvious widows who carry whole games.

Simply must be trolling Lol
