Sym 3.0 wasn’t allowed at the end of Season 1. She was used during All Stars, mostly when they were playing Mystery heroes. Any plays i’ve seen with Pros playing Sym have been lacklustre. Not placing turrets as soon as they get to point, switching before using her ULT.
Wondering if enough time has passed and if we’ll see her used, even if it is just in a BOS comp.
Teleporter and turrets are destroyed by moving parts (payloads doors) when it should be pushed.
Teleporter is almost impossible to place somewhere with a railing.
Teleporter is JUST short of reaching multiple major choke points from safety I.E first point blizzard world Symmetra cant set up a tp to the high ground on the right without putting herself in line of fire.
Horrifically long deploy time for a hero with no instant damage no damage mitigation no armor.
ABSOLUTELY NO INSTANT VALUE ABILITY everything has charge/ramp/build/setup time she needs at least one thing that’s instant.
60 starting damage, 1.6 seconds to gain a single level, 12m range. for securing kills that is god awful. charge time never should of been increased a charge time of 2sec for a full damage beam would already be massively increased with the removal of lock on if you want to reward people with good aim GIVE THEM A DAMN REWARD!
Turrets are unreliable in higher play because people know how to target them -_- and because the turrets have so much damage then her beam cant be buffed because her potential damage would be so high although her full damage is basically never used against a single target.
She can see extremely niche usage on attack on maps like Hanamura where teams will use her teleporter to get past the choke point and to surprise the defense.
That’s really her only current use though. The niche does exist, but it’s extremely small.
Shes only going to be used for some gimmicky strategy with the teleporter. Her primary is garbage at level one and shes a super easy target. Goats counters her, dive counters her…
Dude watching pros try to play Sym is so embarrassing. How can they be this bad at her?
I always remember this one clip on attack hanamura where the sym tps to point, doesn’t drop turrets, then tries to slap people out of range with level 1 beam. Mega oof.
I hope she sees 0 play again so she can get the buffs she needs.
