after the latest change i dont really see symmetras anymore. they immediately switch off.
however ive noticed some pretty… false statements about her.
stuff like her turrets doing too much damage while they die to 1 hit and deal 25 dps. if you even want the 3 on the field then youre set on a 36 second cooldown.
her orbs are terrible. her damage is easily healed by most healers after all with no issue, and theyre rather easy to avoid and somewhat loud? whenever i get hit by them i get instahealed back to full health.
if she gets too close and wants to use the beam, we kill her. ive literally killed pocketed symmetras as supports, mind you and they do hit their shots on him. they still lose because they cant survive the charge up time.
AND HERES THE BEST PART: even full charged, symmetras beam is easily overhealed. i thought it was a ladder thing, but the owwc showed me: most supports can even outheal symmetras beam easily to the point it drags her ttk for too long and she gets killed by actual damage. well currently you can just sneeze on her as she has an hp pool made for ow1, a game with 2 tanks.
so why do people still lose against her? unless thats not a real thing and ppl are making stuff up. i do remember some tank main saying she had a 52% win rate with a 1% pickrate, and that alone was a reason to give her more nerfs, but i dont really… thats any logical.
Her beam can definitely be a melt machine and she obviously dominates in KOTH maps specifically strong versus Rein, Zar, Sigma. Turrets while not as op as they used to be still do enough damage when places properly and the slow is really the most annoying part. But her alt fire is much better than you make it out to be. It hits for flat 100 damage which is a great poke/burst damage option for her. You are heavily underselling her niche and strength.
The rank 1 DPS in NA and Korea are both Sym players. She’s good in the right hands
source? how old is this info?and honestly wasnt this the same case for pharah omce? was that any indication?
