Yeah I've never had a problem with sigma. He doesn't just yeet a rock he makes it first - and I play by cover. So yeah...pretty easy to dodge. And I'm typically expecting it bc I'm baiting it to me Unlike a hog hook that grabbed you from around the corner across the map with no windup.
It's probably a change for metal ranks to decrease the feels bad moments of getting one shot. I'm actually curious to see if the longer stun duration might be better in higher tier play.
The fact that they thought Sigma needed changes tells me what I've suspected for a long time. The balance team don't actually play the game they work on.
he could not help his supports on first point he could not zone zen or torb that's what u calling popping off? can u tell me what did u look for u "popping off"
They tend to not do ultimates just abilities. The only time they messed with one shot ultimate is with reinhard but rien has charge With less armor now.
2weeks in season they will nerf zarya and brigg and queen cause if they buff brigg ult zarya and queen is gonna go wild "joats" could work again what mean u just hold w and kill what u see thats gets u the most forum posts so they gonna change brigg for sure or zarya or bouth
honestly depending on whats meta widow isnt too bad to deal with, as long as there isnt hog meta then winton ball or dva can kill widow pretty easily. hanzo however plays near his team meaning diving hanzo means diving the enemy team as well.
Not really inconsistent. Widow and hanzo are both damage characters, meant to deal damage, while sigma is a tank, whose main purpose (not only purpose) is to tank damage. (But then again, I’m really bad so I probably don’t know what I’m saying)
Sigma got me through competitive in ow 1 and he was my first gold gun, I don't play him as often but respect him as my first main, this nerf is stupid, the mythic skin is amazing
You'd think they'd at least buff him a little to sell battle passes lol instead of giving him an unnecessary nerf His 1 shot only punished people that deserved to be punished and it was still difficult to pull off.
5:09 I love how he just casually ignored the nemesis ramattra to poke at the back line, then proceeded to look over and back off like didn’t even realize he was there until just then
*orisa and roadhog being able to be literally 1v4 a whole team* Blizzard:..... *Sigma, a balanced tank just chilling* blizzard: *nerfing time!* Update: okay hog got kinda shit but my point about Orisa still stands stronger then ever.
@@縣 yeah they are reducing the stun time and the damage out put....it really isnt frustrating like hogs one shot....if they want to get rid of annoying one shots they should start with sojourn...not sig
Hey thanks for these sigma videos me and my 3yo play a game called 'spot the rock' you just got to shout ROCK when you use that ability this has brought us countless hours of fun. Thanks for the fun content
Im starting to see a pattern every mythic has gotten nerfed genji s1 junker queen s2 kirkio s3 now sigma s4 wonder if theyll nerf the next mythic whoever is picked an i feel like they should have us vote for which one we want that be fire
I like to play Symm, and honestly, if she’s not set up with some turrets having her back she’s an easy target. As the other reply said, if she doesn’t have time to set up her teleporter or it’s in cooldown she’s easy to kill.
im glad you showed yourself getting your butt kicked due to comps because i see all these sigma players that just roll and i take what ive learned and its just no playable sometimes. I know this was about a year ago but as of making this comment now its just orisa orisa orisa and shes so annoying to go against
Still waiting for Widowmaker and Hanzo to have their one shots capability removed. I keep hearing it's bad for the game, can't let Hog or Sigma do it, why should the dps heros do it? (Joking aside, I've said hero shooters in general shouldn't have one shots since prob 2017, and everyone thought I was salty or something. Nah. It's just not healthy for a hero shooter. CoD, sure why not. But not a game about teamwork.)
1:40 why dva and not hog? u would have countered half their team and winton could not get that aggresiv correct me if I'm wrong Im supp main rly asking not trying to shit on you or maby a little bit
Wouldnt call it just a nerf. Yes he cant quick combo 200HP anymore but the stun duration goes up and he has (like all tanks) a shorter time when slept by ana. Overall I would say slightly improvement of his playability
Not even close, having an extra .5 seconds doesn’t give enough time to do anything. They just straight up nerfed him and took away one of the most fun part of his kits
@@Zay-zi2te I think you underestimate how significant an 80% increase in stun duration is. Imagine if orisa javelin did 20 less damage but stunned for almost a full second. Imagine if doomfist's emp punch wall stun lasted 1.3 seconds compared to its current .75. Besides, the current rock combo still does 180 damage.
Maybe because they are completely different. One is a skill shot that is instant and hitscan that leads to an insta kill. The other is a long chargeup that can be reacted to.
i didn't see here top 500 play, absolutely braindead and useless rocks ( u know, it is able to stun), bad shield management and bad aim. Maximum this is silver game
I think I speak for everyone when I say that sigmas one shot combo was not a problem like hog/widow and there is no good in nerfing sig in this way.
I would've thought they would change his mitigation if anything.
I didn't even know he had the combo until I saw a video
Yeah I've never had a problem with sigma. He doesn't just yeet a rock he makes it first - and I play by cover. So yeah...pretty easy to dodge. And I'm typically expecting it bc I'm baiting it to me

popping off with sigma
“imma play dva”
that first point is fine for sigma. pushing payload after that can be a pain if they utilize high ground well

Orisa's javelin can basically one shot to in reality of how sigma needs to aim and actually get his one shot to. So they should nerf orisa's javelin
@@thequietman9820 100dmg is no 1shot but ye if they nerf sig orisa should get the same treatment
removed sigmas 1 shot that's inconsistent but left widow and hazy untouched
Hanzo is pain to play against as well as widow i don’t know what to do when i play against them 🥲

@@deusvult6920 Fr, I play like an idiot most of the time and never got one shot by a Sig
it's not a Sigma nerf if I don't hit my rocks in the 1st place
The nerf is to his primary fire. The rock got buffed
@@runadumb bruh what. His primary fire wasn't touched. They nerfed the rock damage
Emongg just proves that even if it's harder to make plays as a tank in overwatch 2 you still can and win.
I guess a new meme has been born
Nerf Sigma
5:09
I love how he just casually ignored the nemesis ramattra to poke at the back line, then proceeded to look over and back off like didn’t even realize he was there until just then
Blizzard has evolved from 'Nerf Genji' to 'Nerf Sigma'
I hope sigma gets a buff after the next nerf
didn't even use the combo that much now we have extra knockdown just have to see how this goes
I cant lie, I much prefer watching Emongg play full games than him doing all the bronze and 1v5 videos, I feel like that trope is so repetitive now.
I still like it but i guess that can't be everyone
Dies in the first minute of the video " this is how he's supposed to be played" lmao
😂goes dva 1:30 gtfo
how sigma is meant to be played......swaps to dva after a minute XD

they literally nerfed orisa and hog, orisa is garbage now and hog is.. still pretty good. Sigma needed a nerf, just not this.
You are about... 2 seasons too late
@@縣 if sig needed a nerf, where would it be cause honestly he feels like the most balanced out of all the tanks as of right now to me
@@grimlocks844 reducing the stun time would keep the skill part about it and still make it harder but not impossible to one shot

39 seconds later:*dies*
Hearing this community collectively groan at the Sigma rock nerf makes me feel so heard.
That rock changed everything
Blizzard are so clueless when it comes to balance changes.
Game saving rock at the end holy
How to play Sigma.. by swapping to Dva.
Im starting to see a pattern every mythic has gotten nerfed genji s1 junker queen s2 kirkio s3 now sigma s4 wonder if theyll nerf the next mythic whoever is picked an i feel like they should have us vote for which one we want that be fire
If this is true, maybe the next mythic should be either Widow or Sojorun so they MIGHT finally loos their one tap
Everyone of my bronze games are like this, expect the players have no clue what's going on. 🤔 😅
I want old stun. Longer the throw better the stun. Cross map rocks were awesome
I think they are adding that, it’ll be like .11 instead of like .8 I think. Don’t take my word for it, I saw a tik tok
Of all heroes SIGMA is getting nerfed but we still have sym probably the most annoying character
Sym is not hard to deal with, after she uses TP, she’s free food, everybody just needs to delete her.
I like to play Symm, and honestly, if she’s not set up with some turrets having her back she’s an easy target. As the other reply said, if she doesn’t have time to set up her teleporter or it’s in cooldown she’s easy to kill.
Sym is a joke character, the turrents need a nerf
😂😂😂
>look at sigma game
>Dva gameplay
Sig already has a hard against rein and doom HE DOESNT NEED A NERF
As a tank why are you going straight for the other tank??????
@@curliousoakshield2889 I don’t it can be hard to work around him though.

OMG round 4 had at least 3 huge ones as well lol
how do you get the free sticker sample thing? for gamersupps
Got halfway through the video before I realized it was uploaded minutes ago. I was one of the first ones here without even trying!😂
Now sigma actually cant kill anything. Just farm useless damage and MAYBE get someone with your ult
bruh are u joking
Sigma is sigma
Why nerf Sigma if he is the next mythic skin
1:40 why dva and not hog? u would have countered half their team and winton could not get that aggresiv correct me if I'm wrong Im supp main rly asking not trying to shit on you or maby a little bit
It is cause in the high ranks is really bad as he no longer one shot anyone. He just feeds ult charge and provides no ways to protect his team
I get it's a nerf and it does suck, but I can't hit my one shots anyway so I'll barely notice
Everyone here complaining about the sigma nerf, Welcome ,the genji and doom mains will gladly take u to the "Blizz nerfs and buffs horribly" club
Used to be a hog main tank (have been since ow1) then we he got nerfed I started playing Sig lol this sucks

try playing a character that is changed drastically every season for no reason.

The one shot being gone is great, they actually did it before the masses noticed its broken for once unlike with Hog
