No it's not, especially after they implemented a hero limit for Competitive.

1 Winston destroys them
It hasnt been a problem at all since comp came out, people have actually started to work together as a team
RIP MY TINY SWEDISH FRIEND, MAY YOUR CHICKEN NUGGET GUN REST IN PIECE
Not really. 1 hero limit should fix the issues with Torb, this whole nerf to him and Symmetra seems unnecessary.

Neither have I but not everyone one is like us
In consoles? I had a comp match yesterday against 4 Torbjorns
A lot of matches involve two Torbjorns behind Reinhardt's shield.

But that's gone. One per hero

Feel like Torb needed a range or accuracy nerd not a damage one.

Gross.
She's a Winston counterpick away from being too much to handle. This seems unnecessary.

I'm not surprised, it it a projectileWould be awesome if it didn't eat Ana's sleep dart, but it does.

Hanzo get nerfed yet?

Speaking of ana's sleep dart, a sleeping bastion in tank form is really adorable.
I'm not bad, but ok.
True, dem molten cores tho
Definitely game changer. More so than most other ult.
Edit: They needed to nerf him for quickplay, unless you would start having different strengths and weakneses within the same character between both gametypes (quickplay and competitive). That would get a bit complicated.
They went by metrics. Torb and Symmetra both have 10% higher win rate on consoles than PC. That's the simple truth. I don't really agree with the Symmetra turret nerf. But Symmetra herself is harder to kill on console because of controller aiming. I've bunny hop microwaved an entire team before on PS4.
I don't know why they nerfed them. Literally no one asked for this nerf.

Ok cool PS4 patch out let's read the patch notes.
*Read's Sym notes*
What the hell, no one asked for this!! I asked for the torb nerf but that was way before the one hero limit, which indirectly nerfed his ass. The sentry's while annoying, were much easier to deal with, and took a pretty much one bullet from anyone..

Someone had to ask for them.....
I just have to wonder.... Who the hell did you have problems with the turrets?

I play Soldier, Reaper, and Mercy. Might add Ana and Zen to my repertoire.

Yeah, it was comp, if it was QP i would have just switched to a character I needed practice with.
Also, smh with the symm nerf. Of course the day the patch comes out is the day that starts my 4 days out of town so I can't play ):

Well. As a (former) Symmetra main, this is disappointing. I've found myself using her less and less on Defence as it is anyway. Very odd change.
Torbs competitive win rate is 57% and Symnmetra's is 62% (although this has more to do with useage then anything else) I'd imagine it's because on consoles defense generally wins more
People don't always ask for shit. They look at metrics and see Symmetra has 10% higher win rate on console than PC. Not every nerf comes from whiners on a forum.

if anything it's sym's main fire that kills people mostly. her guns happen to be there lol.
That's definitely a possibility. Maybe they don't want defense to win so often on console.
Symmetra and torb have higher win % on comp on the PC version then they don on the console version according to masteroverwatch
Quickplay should not be what they base the meta on

How about the metrics as to how easy it is to deal with her turrets?

Jesus fuck @McCree now
Wow-Whee, decent range, I pegged a Pharah out of the sky and Winston lots half health before he reached me with his jump
Damn Hanzo players will be swapping to to him after that hitbox nerf
Pharah with Nano-Boost is UNREAL, MOTHER OF GOD I FELT LIKE GOD DESCENDED FROM THE HEAVENS AND JUST ROCKETED EVERYTHING BREATHING...
Good Lord an Ana with Right Attacker melts with their Regular and Ultimate
Zennys Heal orb swap is so quick, thank fuck
Competitive about to be rebalanced team setup
Pharah can get hurt real good now by a Zen, Mid McCree who pays attention to the sky, and D.Va
Jesus she literally is a Tank Meka now
