I miss the 1980’s but I finally accepted they would never return. Same thing with Sym 2.0. Best to move on.
Fortunately we don’t need a time machine for character changes/suggestions.
I’m telling you, she’s not coming back bro. The shield went to Sigma, people hate turrets, so you wont get more. And shield generator? That’s never, ever returning if they took away armor… and the primary fire, gone. Forever.
I mean i’m fine if they don’t take her back, I know they wont, I was just reminiscing.
I just thought your comparison was a bit funny.
I miss Symmetra 2.0, too 

20s translocator sombra :v
I used to love Mercy pre-valk, not because I like Rez, rather because I dislike Valk, it’s okay as ults go? But Valk itself is kind of a… misguided step in a direction.
Valk removed the need to juggle heals or damage boosting and while multi rez/instant rez with valk could be very strong, it at least gave her something to work with.
There's a second opinion for you.
Me too. I miss Mass Rez. I honestly think it could have been fixed without being removed, but now we’ll never know.
Mercy with mass rez (but i never was a Mercy main, she was just my go-to pick if team needed a support but i was a dps/offtank main and only picked healer if nobody else did).
Bastion with headshots in sentry.
Roadhog with extradimensional hook.
Hanzo with scatter arrow.
D.Va with 400 armour.
Mercy with Mass Resurrect. DVa with 400 armor. Brigitte with burst heal armor pack and 500 hp shield.
Zenyatta until he got a bazillion counters and instead of nailing people in the head and kicking people to death like I used to be able to do before the quadrillionth DPS Buff, I now find myself asking “Well what the hell was I supposed to do about that, beg my team to help me HARDER?”
Now I just play TF2, primarily Battle-Engi; playstyle has everything I love about playing Zen just times 10 and more added management mechanics.
And that’s exactly why old versions of the now reworked heroes should be re - implemented as playable in Custom Games, Workshop and even a special Arcade game mode!
It really is a net win for everyone. The people that used to love playing these characters (even if there are very few of them comparatively), will have their favorite heroes back, while at the same time everyone else won’t have to deal with all the fundamental design problems that led to all of said heroes’ rightful reworks so many years ago.
I hope the devs can see this through as soon as possible.
Zenyatta because the volley caught people off guard, though he’s so bad right now that he might as well be a walking “please kill me” target
Symmetra 2.0.
Idk, she was so… unique and well designed in my eyes - a support who can not heal but gives people shields - we still dont have it in the game again which makes me kind of sad but oh well… I had hopes that Echo would make a change there but… 
I loved her autolock, because it was unique and a friend of mine had a hero he could actually play (despite his health issues), she had two ultimates to chose from and her shield gave her so much skill potential - you were able to block shatters and cancle hooks, safe teammates and it was a huge middle finger to some snipers 
Symmetra 2 for sure.
Also Torb’s armor packs.
And Brigitte as a whole.
Junkrat before they nerfed his projectile size, tire speed, and his mines.
Symmetra 2.0
Brigitte like 2-3 nerfs before her rework
Torbjorn with armor packs
Zenyatta before Doomfist existed
Sigma and Orisa before they got nerfed into the ground simply because people didn’t want to evaporate after leaving cover for half a second.
Baptiste before they reverted his attack recovery time buff or whatever it was. All I know is it made his gun feel a lot less clunky.
Reinhardt with 50% steadfast
Bastion, with his own personal shield. You didn’t need anybody as you had shields, heals and dps.
Symmetra 2.0. I used to love playing her. The rework absolutely ruined her for me and now I never ever even touch her. I think blizzard know they made a mistake there.
OG Mercy honestly.
And Mei, but I still love Mei.
