The problem with Sombra is that they have her listed as defense.

She's isn't defense.
Sombra isn't defense.
Do you fucking understand me? Do you see these words?
Sombra isn't a fucking defense character.

Your team gets slaughtered because they are constantly outnumbered because your team has the front liners and a healer and then they have... Sombra.

When you pick Sombra, your team is missing a player because Sombra is always off running around doing whatever the fucking cyber-beaners do.

Sombra is a bad support character. When you pick Sombra, you are actively choosing not to back up your team in any meaningful way. She can't stop the advance like Torb or Sym. She can't heal as well as real healers. She can't kill like a defense or offense. She just runs around los invisible and sorta kinda picks off low health enemies (ay caramba ese). She literally only helps out when she can use her ult and even then it's probably too late to save her poor, outnumbered team.

Fuck Sombra. Build wall.

Envyus uses her quite often, to great effect. She actually has a very useful kit, it's just that shitters who are bad at the game want an easymode character like 76 so they can run around pretending it's CoD. A properly played Sombra can be a nightmare for the other team.

That being said I still feel she could use some buffs. What I would do is make it so damage doesn't knock her out of invisibility or prevent it from activating, and make it so she doesn't scream a loud ass voice line when she comes out of stealth. Reduce the time between coming out of stealth and being able to perform an action. The stealth character needs to have better, more effective stealth. Maybe make it so damage doesn't stop Hack either
>>
>>378634490
Tracer, Reaper and Genji also run off on their own to flank the enemy so I guess they are useless too.

>>
>>378635146
Sombra does more damage than you think,she's great against tanks and they are great for building her meter which in turn allows to fuck the enemies shit up. Plus the passive to allow you to see who is weak and who you can prey on is great for your team in general. Try actually playing her instead of talking out of your ass.
>>
>b-but sombra is good if she's played by an insanely good player against shit players!

this argument is so dumb, but it shows up every time somebody points out what a bad character sombra is.

Yeah, a guy with a pointy stick can beat a guy with a machine gun if he's just way better and smarter and sneakier, but that doesn't mean a pointy stick is as good of a weapon as a machinegun. Sure, maybe you can manage to annoy people to death with Sombra if you way outskill them but she's still a shit character.

She has the lowest win rate in both competitive and quickplay. She is objectively the worst character in Overwatch.
>>
>>378635378
I'm not insanely good and I do great with her. You're just shit with her. Also the reason your team loses with her is because you don't take advantage of the huge openings you make, the openings are almost as huge as your gaping asshole.
>>
>>378635378
Nobody said this. She's good in the hands of a good player, regardless of the skill of the opposing player. Pros use her to great effect.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha nobody gives a fuck about the stats of shitters and low-rank cucks. Tell me Sombra's win rate in Diamond+
>>
>>378635378
Sombra is the newest hero. She's also the de facto thrower hero so her overall win percentage will be skewed.

I guarantee in a year people will have figured out how to play her and she'll be as viable as any other off-meta pick.

>most ultimates in the game have the potential to straight up KILL an entire team or save your entire team by itself

>somehow people think Sombras is super strong when all it can do is mildly inconvenience the enemy team

Why do people pretend her mediocre ultimate is amazing? It's like a shittier version of Death Blossom or Rip Tire. Hell, if you kill literally nobody except for the enemy healer with Rip Tier or Death Blossom then it was already more effective than EMP

If the idea is to combo it with your team mates, its not even the best for that. Graviton Surge and Mei's Blizzard and Hammer Down are more powerful for allowing your party to run in and get a team wipe following your AoE ultimate

this shit lasts 6 seconds. By comparison, dying, respawning, and walking back from the spawn room to the objective takes much more than 6 seconds. It's not too hard to find cover if you have good positioning to stay alive for the 6 seconds, too. At worst the EMP is just going to mess up positioning, but a bunch of other ults are better at doing that anyway

They have 1% pick rate or less. They're only being used on defense in unusual situations where they're a good counterpick to the enemies specific heroes.

More like if you don't get kills, or you don't prevent your team from getting killed then you are bad. Sombra does neither. Every other character can either kill the enemy or protect their allies and keep them safe. Sombra can hypothetically get kills and heal with her med kit but ultimately she has no impact on either front.

>>378636772

It's a classic issue that is present in modern day stat based games. Good at DnD, largely it operates on the same principals as Overwatch. Team based combat where players can take a multitude of roles. But the reality is unless your characters abilties 100% cripple or lock down the opponents, you are always better off to just deal as much damage as possible.

>>
>>378640010
I've been saying it for a long time now. If the defending team has a Rein the attackers should have 2 tanks that can bypass him. Having 2 Reins dance in front of each other while no one does damage just wastes all your time, and time is on the defender's side.

While Sombra does need some minor buffs and tweaks, she really isn't bad. I think the problem most people have is they frankly don't know how to use her. She counters certain characters really hard, tanks especially, and is best used to take down those targets.

>She counters certain characters really hard, tanks especially, and is best used to take down those targets.
Problem being her gun, while having one of the best DPS rates in the game, has a terrible per-bullet damage which means any armor cuts her DPS in half, which leads to people thinking she does shit damage.

Overwatch is fucking fantastic game, the fact tons of people play it is just cherry on top, meaning I don't have to wait long for a game. What's your argument, here?
>>
>>378647481
This. As far as Supports go Ana is the only one who's healing isn't autopilot dogshit design and since her health does not regenerate you need to decided between Biotic Grenade being for your team or your health.

Hanzo is also a really good character then because high level players make him work
Same with Widow

Don't bother responding if you're not in diamond you virgin x^))))

her tranq gun is also incredibly powerful but is absolutely one hell of a skill shot to master.
>>
>>378647658
This. Its amazing how many people bitch about Ana as if playing her is the same as something like Mercy or zen. Acting like every Ana player is capable of 100% accuracy with zero cooldowns, and a splash that covers the map whenever she tosses a nade.

Sleep Dart is a projectile so you need to be good at leading to get it to work. I think Ana is really balanced now, she still has a very strong defense but she can no longer kill like she used to. The only thing I'd change about her now is make Biotic Grenade slow down healing by 50% instead of completely blocking it.
>>
>>378648731
Completely blocking it is fine I think. If for no other reason than it counters an ult that really doesn't have much in the way of counters.
>>
>>378648793
I think 50% block is better, Zenyatta is already incredibly niche, he doesn't need a better healing having an ability that completely shuts down his only reason to be on a team.
>>
>>378648731
I'm ok with the fact that they created a hard counter to Roadhog and healing in general
>>
>>378648912
Zen is becoming less niche now actually thanks to Dive meta.
>>
>>378648912
Zen cranks out high burst damage, his discord orb debuff turns the hardest target into paper mache, you can get away with having Zen as a dedicated healer in stronger teams and his ult can completely shut down an enemy teams push.
>>
>>378629743
If any Sombra player would just fucking communicate that they are looking for an ult, then maybe your 4th point wouldn't happen so often.

Blizzard really needs to do something about Roadhog and Reaper. There is nearly no reason to pick Reaper when Roadhog exists unless the team comp is built around Reaper.

>>378649663
If they were to do anything they should nerf Roadhogs burst and increase the magazine size on his scrap gun. More shots less burst.

Must be why Reaper is such a must pick in every pro game then

>>378650171
In case you haven't noticed, that was a pro game.
>>
>>378649964
Pretty much the same thing can be done with other hero ults too, usually without sacrificing a slot for Reaper.

For instance, Grav Surge + EMP works wonders. Pretty much any offensive ult also works with it well, even something like Pharah's since it makes her just a tiny bit harder to shut down.

Yeah, just like I said. I can guarantee you none of that would have happened without Sombra's Ult and D.Va to DM anything being shot at Reaper.

>>378650171
Just shorten his hook range, that's really all he needs I think. Roadhog is a bit of necessity for cockroach characters like Tracer, Genji, and Lucio as well as damaging Rein's sheild. But his current hook range is barely shorter than McCree's optimal M1 damage range. For an instant kill combo, that is far too big a range.
>>
>playing overwatch
ayy lmao
>>
>>378649964
Literally could have been done with any other character with Sombra there to shut down the entire enemy team with her Ult. Tell me how this would have not worked with Soldier 76 instead of Reaper.
>>
>>378650473
This is the same board that thinks Mass Effect, Call of Duty and Dragon Age are respectable classics, what do you expect?
>>
>>378650438
I kinda think Hog would be a tiny bit more balanced if he had a deadzone too. Like an area where TOO close nets him less damage rather than more. To make it so getting close to him is risky, but if you can get inside of that range, you have the advantage. Right now Hog is simply optimal at far too many ranges.
>>
>>378629786
I want an honest answer here. Why exactly do people call OW a bad game? Do people on this board genuinely hate its gameplay, or do people still get mad that Tracer's gay? I truly want to know.
>>
>>378650438
The thing is cutting the range would almost make him useless even with his current burst damage. Punishing people for getting out of position and not utilizing their tanks properly is a perfect role for Roadhog, and yes, grabbing tracers/genji/lucio too. Nerfing his burst damage but keeping the range on hook would still let him be useful for setting up ganks, it would just require actual team play in theory. Hog does everything that reaper does only better.

Most of it I think is people are either shitting on it because its popular, or over state how "simple" they think the game is. Everyone you hear bashing it talk about how casual it is generally are the ones who only either repeat what they hear from others, or who only have a very limited sense of understanding about the game.
>>
>The "my character isn't underpowered" are the same people as "its my team's fault im bad"

God dam it it all makes sense.
>>
>>378650735
Because it's pretty shit, I hate the game and I hate the gimmicky mechanics and I hate Blizzard but for some reason I still have fun from time to time

>>378647141

Phatom was fun before they gutted melee because playing beyblades phantom was antifun or something
>>
>>378650864
I generally hear that as well from TF2 fans, because the TF2bers either play it, or shit all over it because they think the Ults and Abilities are cheap and whatnot. But hey, that's their opinion.
>>
>>378629743
Sombra is fucking awesome, you need skill to play here, thats what makes her good
>>
>>378650804
"Bad positioning" shouldn't mean being out of place at the ridiculous range Hook is. Again, it is just shy of being the same range as McCree's optimal M1 damage. There is nothing wrong with Roadhog being stronger on KoTH maps where close range skirmishes are a part of the game as opposed to Payload maps where it's more open. Hog just has too many options compared to Reaper. A death combo with McCree M1 range, an M2 that does a shit ton of damage and can even one-shot 200 HP heroes, and a self heal.
>>
>>378636231
>ignoring data
woah you sure got that 'cuck' r-right
>>
>>378650804
While I do agree that the hook is great for doing something like that, I feel that partially the line of thinking has a problem.

Shouldn't it be the job of snipers to be picking off people with poor positioning? If someone leaves the safety of the shield, shouldn't it be someone like Widow or Hanzo who take them out? Hell, even without them, pretty much everyone can capitalize on that mistake, but instead for some reason its Hog's job to obliterate someone who steps out.
>>
>>378651194
We might have to just agree to disagree on the range, I feel like it's just the amount of resilience and killing power packed into one character that's the issue, not necessarily just the range. Especially with given how many mobile heroes there are, as well as Pharah/Mercy floating around in the sky being able to reach out and grab a target doesn't feel too outrageous to me, what's outrageous is that he can do that plus kill on his own. If hook actually required some teamplay it would feel alot more balanced, imo
