It’s been a long time coming, and it’s about time Sym gets her flowers. She needs her own story redemption! Her character development and brewing desire to separate from the malpractices of Vishkar have been more than heavily hinted at over the years, and yet…silence.
Not only is she excluded from Stadium and Mythic skins, but now she is also ignored in the story altogether? While her best friend Lifeweaver gets to duke it out with Viskhar VP Domina, who LITERALLY uses Sym’s own teleporter for some reason?? Feels like a slap in the face to people who can see that Satya has such an interesting character to explore 
Please do better by her, Blizzard.

Buddy, Undivided and other lore drops they’ve doing would have been the perfect oportunity to focus on the heroes that have been the least in the spotlight, like Sym, Mei, Torb, Bastion, Lucio, etc.
Instead we get the blandest advertisement for the new recruits disguised as lore.
I think Vishkar might get a spotlight next year, at least for 1 season - when Arcology (finally) launches they could do a season focusing on Symmetra, Domina, Lifeweaver, and possibly Lucio.
Not sure how it would tie into the overarching story, but we don’t even know what the 2027 focus is so there’s no point guessing really.

Her time will come, especially now that we have Symmetra’s boss in the game.
Last time we had actual lore on Symm, it was with Lifeweaver at the Arcology, and he hinted that she sould investigate on Vishkar founder.
Then again, maybe it’ll have ties with the Arcology, it sems that this place would fit Symmetra’s aspiration to make a better world and do good things alongside Niran. (But the map is delayed for some reason, so, finger crossed for that to happen sooner than later!)
