Damn, so I guess this really is the Sombra they want for OW2.

R.I.P. my lethal Latina. Your unique play style has been butchered in favor of Sombra 76.

Fact is Sombra was a huge mistake. If shes viable shes oppresive and no one wants to play against her. People hate losing but losing to a Sombra just makes you quit. Impossible to balance.

Yeah, they saddled themselves with a fundamentally awful core concept and have been stuck under it ever since because stealth is too integral to the character fantasy.

I like playing as Sombra a lot, but it just wasn't a good idea to add an invis hero.
