I have the common sense to look at two kits side-by-side and conclude that 3.0 is obviously better. Don’t hurt yourself trying to do all those mental gymnastics with the stats. Trust me, they’re useless. The Sombra community also begged for more buffs because of her low stats. Those stats are still low today, yet if she was an iota stronger, she’d literally run the game at every tier above Gold.
So you mean an uninformed opinion?
People thought it was “common sense” the world was flat 500 years ago and the Earth was center of the universe.
They also didn’t believe in Data either.
Heck. These Flat-earthers are still around and still use words like “common sense” and can’t trust data.
Wait are you a Flat Earther Also?
Please say yes, Please say Yes, Please Say Yes.

You just place a new one and it replaces it
It works like that RN
Set it to 0 cooldown on custom games and see
That sounds busted in theory and might be in practice
Im not saying to put it on 0 cooldown
Im telling YOU on custom games to do that so you can see that you can still place a tp even after another one is up, it will just replace the old
I feel like there is a semblance of a breech and hold character, going in with your buddies to take a place over. Right now however, she doesn’t feel like she delivers that fantasy well. I just want the tickrate reduced down to 10 (armor still effects the first 2 lvls, but not lvl 3) and tp buffs/bug fixes.
How is this getting so many replies. I can’t even tell wtf OP is saying. Is it a joke, if so it’s too complicated for me. Someone translate?
It is a serious statement and a joke at the same time.
About how we have 2 years of changes about being aware of the problem and finding solutions to make sure the problem remains in new ways instead of fixing it.
Say for example you live in Holland and have a hole in the wall.
First Governor says, “I am going to plug that hole” and he does, but a new hole forms.
2nd Governor says, “I am aware of the issues and solve our leaking problem!”
So he turns the leak into a water fountain. A creative solution that doesn’t actually fix the problem and possibly made the situation worse by creating a bigger hole to make the fountain.
Sure it impressed people by the fancy changes but not the solution that was needed.
So we are living in a time loop of bad ideas and making light joke of it.
You need to consider how the meta just shifted in syms favor the moment the rework came out. Sym 2.0 is weak to dive comps but combos insanely with brig. Brig killed the dive meta. And now deathball is everywhere. If we had sym 2.0 now she would have been a much better pick because she would be fighting the comps she is very strong against.
Brigs release would have been the best thing for sym 2.0 she synergieses and counters brig. Now we have sym 3.0 who is very limited by brig

I doubt she would be picked in this Meta either for the simple reason this META focuses on overhealing.
Having Sym would be a crutch cause she will be fighting AoE Enemies like D.Va and Brigette who can easily tank and kill her turrets. As well as easily stunned CC by Brig and killed instantly.
Sym if she ever is going to be in a META without being FTier needs a kit redesign that gives her strong survability such as a Shield Generation similar to Doomfist or Mobility similar to Moria
Sym(cough and others, like Sombra cough ) not being meta is fine. Sym being worse than prior to changes isn’t fine.
I think Symmetra’s teleporter needs a wider interact range and needs to be usable while CC’d- so, if Rein is charging you near your Symm’s teleporter and you hit F at the right time, you can teleport out of the charge. It also needs speedier deployment- down to a 0.5 second cast time and a 1 second deployment.
Symm is so… slow. Sluggish. Everything she does other than shooting has a cast time and a deployment time. I think a 1.5 second total teleporter would remedy this.

Pickrate is entirely perception based. Sym still has a negative connotation attached to her due to being a troll pick since the start of the game. It will take a while for her to recover from that perception.
Winrate went down due to her being LESS niche. She is actually usable in more scenario’s so she is not being switched off of after first point is lost. So people are actually playing her to the end of a match far more often. Thus resulting in a more even winrate instead of a artificially inflated one.
Owl is a non-issue. None of us will EVER play at owl level. However, that being said the current meta at pro level just does not match Sym. The pro’s typically find the strongest characters and play them. Not being the strongest character does not mean you are a “bad” character. It just means there are others that are overtuned.

The turret heroes should all always be situational/noob stompers. It’s a toxic mechanic
That teleporter could pair with any her that doesnt have vertical mobility. It’s got insane potential is too much of a non issue to both take out and see coming.
so truly, one thing preventing her from being meta is that mobility right now is dominant
Seems like it in my eyes. She has the same issues any other hero that cant move around does. She just happens to be the worst of them all.
Syms SG and Brig Rally allowed the whole team to be monster tanks. She would have been meta if they waited another month.
I definitely agree. At least in comp where teams are disorganized. In owl she would likely not see a lot of play because coordinated teams have always been the counter of sym
I’m telling you guys, they don’t want what are marked as low skill characters to ever be viable in OWL. Moira is about the only one being given a pass on this currently, and Brig though she is being pushed down a bit. If you love Torb, Sym, or Bastion for instance, you will never find that character in OWL substantially or accepted in upper comp. Blizz doesn’t want them there in reality.
