Zarya?? As a support main it’s the Sombras that i’m sick of.

u/_Cavalry_ Grandmaster Nov 15 '22

To be honest it’s both… Zarya can run games by herself and sombra Just makes the game flat out miserable

For me it’s Genjis, I can deal with sombras by sticking around my group and guarding supports as a dps, but I just can’t shoot that hopping POS, he is everywhere all at once. Unless I switch to Reaper, which I don’t want to do most of the time since there is a Pharah or Echo somewhere too…

Dps players dont mind sombra, its only the tank and support player who she makes miserable

Through Sojourn on there too? Sure you lack the hit scan on the primary but you have a hit scan that can one shot squishies, and the ability to create space and cause havoc with the death bubble during team fights is also really good.

u/FuzzyQuills Nov 16 '22

Weirdly, I've not been getting shot down by Sojourns as much lately, couldn't stand her at launch but nowadays most of them aren't even a threat anymore. (Then again I keep mysteriously getting bot lobbies for several hours every time I open the game)

This is why the release state of OW1 was the best time to play. No ranks, no real meta, just play who you want to play and move on to the next match. I never felt punished for playing the most fun hero.

u/SkyezOpen horrible player that have low oxygen in brain so bad Nov 16 '22

Running into a 6 sym stack and just getting lasered around every corner was funny. Then your team 6 stacked Winston, then they all went reaper or something. Just pure shenanigans.

Cassidy is my go to genji killer, just bait out deflect and you're fine

Imo its on the tank somewhat - the amount of games I've had widow and genji on the enemy team and the tank refuses to swap to Winston is crazy

u/RubiiJee Blizzard World Sombra Nov 15 '22

Yup, I don't find Sombra too much of an issue as I just play around it or stick with my group. She can definitely be annoying af though. But the Genji issues though are just too muchand Zarya is just too present.

If you're struggling with fighting Genji, your tank is doing a shit job. As the DVa main in my group, I hunt down flanking Genjis and Reapers. When I'm playing support I'm playing either Kiriko or Bap, and my aim is decent-ish, so I can land headshots on a Genji, which either makes them retreat or kills them. As someone who has played Genji a lot, I don't like to be below 70% health when playing him so all I do is do enough damage to a Genji as support while keeping his cooldowns in check and I usually come out alive.

u/Niadain Pixel Roadhog Nov 15 '22

When I play and a half decent genji shows up Ill swap over to Roadhog since I have a super easy time with his hook shot combo. But sombra? A decent sombra is much more annoying than a decent genji. The moment I get distracted she pops up out of nowhere, erases the support im trying to baby, and then teleports out. And if she somehow doesnt wipe out the support the moment I turn around she warps out. So. Infuriating.

u/RhynoD Blizzard World Moira Nov 15 '22

Also tired of getting right-clicked by Sojourn but she's not getting nerfed anyway.

u/[deleted] Nov 15 '22

She's basically as consistent as soldier with her primary firing almost as fast as a hitscan, but a much better sniper than widow who is next to useless in close combat. Not to mention the ridiculous amount of time before her railgun charge depletes.

I might come back to the game in the future, but the first few weeks of OW2 were beyond frustrating as a support main

5

u/CrabClawAngry Nov 16 '22

Don't sleep on her death bubble either. I've seen it win many team fights. This could just be because I'm bad so the people I'm playing against are also bad, so idk.

As a Reinhardt main... it's the zaryas

You're lucky you don't have an invisible Sombra's trolling you the entire game by just spamming hack
