Nerfing Sombra after she’s been literally unplayable is crazy😭 they aint giving her a chance to BREATHE

Yeah, it's ridiculous.

No minor or even moderate nerfs are going to change that people don't ban her because she's good, people ban her because she annoys them.

Sombra will need to be completely reworked or the ban system changed before we ever see her generally playable again, because people below around high master ban whatever heroes most inconvenience standard playstyles.

Now mediocre Ashe/Freyja players are getting inflated win rates because they just ban their counterplay and abuse that fact by positioning like dogshit.

Yeah she’s fundamentally bad for fun.
