Then suddenly a 1vs1 against a reaper.... guess who won. She's so dependant on the team and the map now. It's insane. It used to be the exact opposite (as in she was dependant on the enemy team). You just had to somehow crawl behind your enemies, pick up the healers and then you had some nice free kills with the DD's until only the tanks were left. But now... ughh it's just so anti-fun.
Yeah when everyone instalocks a dps instead of filling for tank or healer, its probably not gonna end well, ever. Here's what i dont like about Sym's rework : blizz turned her into a female indian version of old torb when youre pressured on defense maps. Old torb was useless except to defend points and HAD to stay near turret all the time to repair it, and still there were other more viable heros to pick than torb on defense at that time. Very passive playstyle. Sym without a proactive team to take advantage of her teleports is exactly that. She puts up her 3 sentries and uh, stays back right clicking and repleneshing destroyed sentries...? On attack though Sym can be a beast. But to me thats not a very fun way to play the game especially as you said very well CC is very prevalent in this game for whatever odd reason (getting slept+hacked+shield bash stunned+DF punched all at the same time isnt fun on a mid-high mobility hero....jeff pls) ; this meta is cancer as well for sym, GOATS basically deathballs everything and Sym has little leeway to maneuver around if teleport is on CD. Hopefully role queue to force 2-2-2 comps will arrive soon.
