I know this is a bronze take for a lot of people but I find her rework to be extremely busted. I feel like no one really counters her and if she lands virus it’s practically a free kill unless you have a support pocketing you. Plus her escapability is still really good. It’s the most frustrating thing I have ever come across in OW since I just never learned how to fight against her rework. Any tips?
As someone who has been playing a lot of Sombra this season my worst matchup has been if the enemy has Kiriko and Lifeweaver on their team and play near each other. Even Brig and Moira I have SOME success with, but with Kiriko + LW together they can endlessly bail each other out. Anybody I dive gets pulled away and/or Suzu’d and no matter my aim I don’t have the sustain to live after they get a 2nd or 3rd round of heals. Bap also works like this but sometimes I can burst him before he drops his invulnerability drone.
I also struggle if our team can’t apply much pressure and Mercy is on top of rezzing everything I kill. Usually I can get a few picks but we never push in on them so we just idle in choke. Beyond that, Reaper for lifesteal and high HP, Mei for iceblock and high HP… basically anybody who I can’t kill quickly has a good chance of beating me in a 1v1 by causing me to disengage. It also buys a few vital moments for their team to pivot back on me.
On the other side, some of my favorite targets are Junkrat, Zen, Widow, Soldier 76, Lucio and Moiras who think damaging me is better than healing themselves (I can burst her faster than she can tickle me down, even with an orb out).
Honestly just playing a semi-competent Kiriko is sometimes enough, but you will be using your suzu on cooldown with every one of my dives, so hopefully my team can’t push you in another way that also needs it. Hope that helps.
