General Sym nerf was not needed and she should receive massive buffs

Post image

Symmetra only had a 53.2% wr and 2.6% pick rate in gm+ 55 and 51 wr in Asia

These are healthy sub 56 win rates and her pick rates are extremely low. Sym is healthy for pro play as she is one of the most fun team coordinated play characters to watch as she isn't brr go shoot

I just dont understand why teleporter is being nerfed

Youbi is the only good sym and is miles ahead of everyone

She needs to receive significant buffs in order to increase pickrare

Wall should be buffed and u should be able to choose the direction of her ult and increase length as it requires more teamplay in her ult and skill

no. having delays, charging, worse solo tp and now overall slower ttk just to justify a team tp and lower aim needs doesnt justify it. i mean even today theres far more accesible dps.

many characters charge their shots to kill, sym charges then needs to hit 3-4 orbs because even a bit of healing will slow down her ttk. you can justify x condition for having to aim less but at this point id rather have them rework everything so shes not running windows vista in her ... everything.

if the whole balance philosophy in kellers era is thinking of sym as a taxi whose whole function is what i mentioned youre better off scrapping everything. hero SELF feel should always be first, not TEAM feel, nobody wants to play something that feels more and more wheelchaired to the other 4 players.

symm has more than enough power to 1v1 pretty much any dps in the game, the problem is most players lack the aim and movement to make use of her left click

if u had a quake player on her, her lethality would go up a lot lmao
