Symmetra nerf for what though?

Imagine nerfing symmetra when she’s only great on certain maps and while other characters perform much better than she does on more maps than she does. CLOWNERY.

Because she’s not hitscan

The really funny thing is, people complaining about Orisa/ Zarya/ Sigma

Who’s a good DPS against them?

Oops just got nerfed lolol

I genuinely thought she was in a perfect place. Good where’s she’s good, not usable against some comps and maps, and usable some points if you needed her. I genuinely think they did this because TP is insane with the bastion comps. :weary:

Honestly, it’s just so unnecessary.
I would rather take back the weaker M2 instead of this HP nerf…
with exactly 100 DMG per shot, it’s good on paper, being able to 2 tap 200HP heroes… but that just doesn’t happen in actual games. A single point of healing makes it so that she doesn’t 2 tap anymore.

Like I don’t get what they’re thinking with this one when heroes like Soldier or Genji are dominating the DPS role in every rank and Sym is niche as heck

Even I’ve adapted to turrets doing less damage and being a team oriented tool a lot of the time. Wall hacks are great when you ping them. But even then, WHERE was she dominating?? Those people in low ranks are still dying to 25 dps turrets. We can’t just keep nerfing stuff because people refuse to adapt.

It’s almost comical how much the devs nerf Symmetra at this point. Does 10 extra damage on right click really make her a strong ranged hero?

Pretty sure they meant to nerf Lifeweaver down to 200 HP but someone screwed up and clicked on the wrong Vishkar hero.

They really expect us to duel pocketed hitscan from like 40 meters away with an orb that’s easily dodged from that range……

Except they nerfed a hitscan who was already doing worse than sym.

Or they nerfed her because one winston streamer became really mad when he realized Sym can heal from his barrier and we can’t have angry streamers.

Hmm, lets look at symmetra. Beam hero, good long range attack, powerful ult, turret hero, had more health than half the dps roster… Almost like, shes broken, almost like in metal ranks, she was unstoppable. Almost like, she took/takes no skill.

Honestly good nerf, nobody that looks that thin should be able to survive 2 slashes from dragonblade.

They probably nerfed Sym to force a D. Va meta.

She was too great on those maps, obviously. She never needed more HP to begin with if we are being honest. It makes WAY more sense to give her HP to Zen. :joy:

Zen just got dumpstered though. His already low pick rate will go lower.

He is now the worst support in the game. It’s official!

Good long range attack that you can easily dodge from any range that’s farther than mid range? We get it, you play in gold/plat lobbies.

She’s always been a character that’s supposed to be good in her niche and now she’s weaker everywhere.

If this is true, it is absolutely for the better as it means he will not be subject to crippling nerfs. They gave him plenty of compensation, in my opinion. I will probably go back to playing him, actually. Especially because those Illari nerfs are HARSH! :scream:

I think it not a bad nerf the problem me and my teamate have is they gave her nothing in return like for real let her turret be on a 8 second cool down already

Nerfing her doesn’t upset balance, because nobody picks her, so there’s no community outcry. Touching Genji or Soldier is radioactive.
