Sombra doesn't seem like much of a Torbjorn counter. She can't hack his turret unless the team is near it (which means the team likely would kill the turret anyways becuase loltorbturret hp) and Torbjon could flank her while she's trying to hack his turret or his turret could cover him when shes trying to kill him.

How much of a good idea playing competitive be once Sombra comes out?

I'm predicting Sombra vs Sombra for at least a week.

And Torb may or may not be useless depending on the implementation of his buffs.

Sombra also sounds a whole lot like a direct counter against heroes with heavy reliance on healthpacks. Being Winston without them will hurt so much.
 
Hacked healthpacks stay hacked for a minute.

Sombra can actually hack multiple healthpacks at once. Each healthpack has it's own cooldown while hacked.

Made a separate thread for the world cup if anyone is interested. France v Russia just started

edit: oh never mind someone else made one too
 
Wow that health pack stuff is insane. They regen so fast when hacked that she might as well be a healer. Stopping enemies from using them is icing on the cake.

This Blizz dude with Stylosa is giving some good details. We 'are not ready' for Sombra skins.
 
I'm surprised this hasn't happened yet. Both Reinhardt and Reaper have references to the Warcraft series with their Lionhardt and Plague Doctor skins, so Roadhog having a skin referencing the Butcher from the Diablo series would be incredibly fitting.

I fully expect proper "other Blizzard properties"-skins at some point.

Sombra is basically an offence and defence hero combined.

She is the flanker and the antiflanker at the same time.

'I think she's gonna be good against Pharah as well'

He said like 76 is :|

Like they ain't been ruining 76 repeatedly as if each incremental tweak hasn't made him irrelevant.
So on defence, after every successful team fight, you can just hack the big HP that the fight revolves around again and again lol.
Yep, absolute mess.

Can someone tell me why you would ever bring Tracer over Sombra?

I just wonder how much they think about other heroes while designing these new heroes. Like Mercy while they designed Ana.

I get why they put her as Offense, but her skill set really sounds more like a support class. Except then everyone would complain because she doesn't have a healing ability...except she kinda does.

One of the game developers who worked on Sombra doesn't know what happens when Genji deflects Translocator but has faith in the QA team, lmao. (UnitLost twitch)

He didn't remember that in this version you can't hack during preparation phase. They are iterating fast on her.
