No thanks. Sombra is a shoddy fake that Blizzard clearly got an inspiration from Laura in SFV. She may scream "sexy" but her play style more than speaks for itself.
Her playstyle does nothing for her personality to be honest, they could put that playstyle on a much more interesting character and it would be the same. Besides being flashy ( which isn't a personality by the way ) it doesn't really do anything for her character. If I sat down with every other character on that roster, and how they moved and how that related to the character and how it speaks to them as a character... I could do that. But for her, its lacking, much like her personality, or lack their of, its just... strong. Like they made a sexy character, and went " oh we made a brazillian waifu , but she doesn't actually have a personality " and someone went " we will make her strong " but being strong, isn't a personality, its how you use said strength, but her moveset doesn't utilize it in any interesting way.
She reminds me of abel in may regards a character who fits an archetype but doesn't really have an thing besides that. They even have the same fighting style, or variants of that jujistu. They also have similar problems, while abel isn't say a brazilian waifu, though if you look through his concept art he was almost a waifu, he is based on a real martial artist. That said, they never really expanded who he was outside of that. The closest thing he got to getting a personality was his obsession with animals, but that isn't a personality, like laura caring about sean ( in the most anime way possible) isn't a personality. This is also reflective of their movesets, their movesets are very by the book, its just jujistu. It doesn't really seem specific to them its just... jujistu.
Take two of the most boring personalities on the roster, Ryu and Guile.
Ryu is literally the OG fight man, sans evil ryu, he's calm , he's slow. He's deliberate in his function he's strong and he's versatile. He is a rock. That is reflective in his moveset and personality. He is a rock, he's finding his reason to fight and lets the battles he goes through shape him into the person he is. Much like rocks on the shore, on under water fall. He also has rock hard abs but that's another dicussion.
Guile, another person on the more boring side of the personality tree. Is by the book man, it might be his own book. But he's by the book, I cut my hair like this, I will find my friend even for whole decades after he's dead, why its the right thing to do. He is calculating in his fighting style and who he is and thats reflective on his move set. My man has two moves, He gotta kick, he gotta boom. That's all he needs, he is waiting for you to mess up. Yeah he could chuck a boom with one hand, but its not giving him the power he needs to do what he needs , you see it in this game. Guile's one handed booms in V trigger are actually smaller than normal booms. He could be flippin all over with his flash kicks like nash, but no. He does it his way, when you mess up, he wants optimal power to kick his foot up your ass. And he has a whole host of weird normals, designed for " you have fucked up, you know you fucked up", he doesn't need a whole lot of moves. He just needs you to fuck up, and that's reflective in his personality. With his critcism of characters more often than not.
Her moveset doesn't really speak to me in that way... it reads as " we wanted to try out a move set and we put in a sexy vessel " and thats'... kinda it. I'm not saying every characters moveset needs to be reflective of who they are as a person , but it does... help... alot. Because... that's kind of how fighting in real life is, no one fights the same, how they fight, what they do while fighting is speaking to who they are as a person in a regard.
Character after character, some more interesting than others, I can tell you why their movesets look and feel like they do in relation to their personality.
But when you look at laura, what do you see, what is her goal... who is a she is as a person?.... Nothing.... she's just a bunch of anime tropes. She's the sexy older sister character, but she cares about her brother so she beats him up. OH now she's angry so she'll fight all the dudes, oh , but she used to get into more trouble than now, because she's such a trouble maker. But we never actually see her do anything to formulate anything into an actual personality that's... intresting. She's just... modern anime trope woman. And she's uses... jujistu? Because...? And what does she want to do? It seems like maybe she wants to spread matsuda jujistu ( which you know is already makoto's and dan's thing but whatever) but that's never addressed enough to even merit discussion in terms of her personality.Her moveset is as basic as her " personality its " flashy
Mind you, I knew more about C Viper and Juri, even rufus's terrible ass when they were introduced just from their arcade mode entrances and exits than anything about laura now. And she has a storymode, and a cinematic story mode.
Rufus has more personality than Laura, its annoying as shit, but at least he has one.
Laura is actually nothing.
