I think the soldier was still working his way through the instruction manual
That lag had them fighting demons!
had em biting the fart bubbles in the bath
I already see them going for health packs too much.
edit 1: They also try to hack into virus too much… Which removes the surprise factor of just doing virus; making the enemy strafe more.
And they kinda shoot the tank too much when there are clearly better targets available (bastion for example)
@@BobOrKlaustbh from a silver sombra most likely done to get dps up some more so team dosent start crying to swap 😂
I feel that soldier and his lag, I always have random ping spikes at the worst times, highest has been 250 before, my internet was fine so I really have no clue why it happens
My highest ping went up to 2500 somehow 😂
Lag spikes often happen when playing on WiFi, even if your internet is fine. If you can, try playing connected over an ethernet cable or even one of those powerline adapters.
Some tips for the sombra:
- don’t feeling you have to win every 1v1, forcing cooldowns is good enough. Often time your way too aggressive at the wrong time. You seem to want to feed a lot
- if your team isn’t around chill and scout, and if necessary help your team with the initial engagement near spawn/on way to point at an off angle.
- virus hack is a good combo in that order
- sometimes using ult on just 1 hero is a lot of value if you know you can kill them and they have an ult that can win their team the fight.
- look at the enemy team composition to understand where your value is located. Taking that 1v1 on brige was a waste of time, and with a Keri, your best bet was to play an annoying/ distracting playstyle not trying to force Elims, so much as threaten them. You can go for bastion when supports are distracted with those supports, otherwise you’re probably going to feed.
Sometimes Virus/Shoot is an even better combo. Hack wastes quite a bit of time that could be spent doing damage. It's situational, but I've been having more luck just shooting after virus.
I feel like after they made friends with the kiri and soldier in round 2 they started trying to avoid them, which left them with brig hog and bastion, and unfortunately they just got rolled by the brig.
They fought the brig oddly. Kept giving them a chance to run down and kill her
This sure was something. Too bad the soldier was stuck in 1984 most of the time
Edit: and yes, Brig is a wonderful counter to Sombra. I have so much time on Brig since the Sombra rework and I hate it but you do what needs to be done, i guess
Brig is also the only support that doesn't immediately fall over because of a half-competent Genji or Tracer. The perfect anti-dive support.
More viruses, they do not need hacks ahead of time, treat them like soldier 76 helix rockets for surprise initiation damage. She stayed in the Kitsune Rush for the faster fire rate and reload speed but didn't toss out a virus once to take advantage of the cooldown reduction. It's free damage. I'd also say that it was a hard team to fight, with Kiri, Brig, Hog, and Moira tough targets to pick, but the knee-jerk reaction to back out before getting an elim made it tough, it was when you committed to getting a doable kill that you did good.
Something all Sombra players (especially lower rank ones) need to realize, is what has fundamentally changed with her last major rework: Her tp use.
Before, you had to set up tp spots, and it was a much more "in, hack, assassinate, get out" style of play that benefitted because nobody could chase you down, but also you couldn't always plan your escape mid-fight to account for changing variables. It incentivized a much more of a macro style of play with healthpack control, target focus, dive coordination, etc.
With the new tp, the main difference is that you don't tp far out of the fight, but instead have more tp uptime in general. This actively pushes Sombra closer to a hero like Tracer in generic playstyle incentive, where you benefit more from living in the enemy backline and applying constant pressure, and tp-ing juuust out of reach any time someone tries to deal with you. See her tp as a mix between Tracer's Blink and Recall.
With new Sombra, your general pressure uptime should be 2x higher than old Sombra, and rather than going for hard shutdowns and elims, you instead benefit from lower threat but more consistent general pressure.
Most notably, what you should seek to do, is boost your damage uptime overall to farm EMP and constantly make the backline worry about you -not because you're assassinating them, but because they know that you're simply always there and they can't really do much about it, and eventually your pressure is gonna kill them or force them into a subpar position where they get less value than your team.
*IMPORTANT:* Don't go for hack-into-virus-into-shoot. That's alread 2-3 seconds of wasted time where you could just have been shooting, and it also gives the enemy more time to react to your presence and start dealing with you, before you apply any meaningful pressure yourself. Just look at this game, how many hacks actually provided ANY value? Like maybe one or two hacks? Out of 50+ hacks. That statistic alone hammers home the point. Current hack is best used to interrupt abilities, or to make sure a low hp target cant use an escape/sustain tool before they're dead. Any other use, it's worthless. Just go out of invis and start shooting, don't waste your time with anything else. Damage damage damage.
This Silver Sombra player could, with their silver mechanics and game sense, still get 2x as many EMPs EASILY, if they manage their damage uptime better and don't apply the assassin playstyle of "hack, virus, damage, hope for elim". Just go straight for the damage as often as possible, and if someone with an escape/sustain ability gets close to critical, THEN you hack them for that elim potential. But don't worry about starting off with hack, it's a waste of time and you gain much more value by just straight up farming EMP as much as possible on convenient targets. Never hard disengage, just tp out of immediate reach of the enemy and re-engage within 2 seconds. You'll be amazed at how much you will be doing over the course of a match. 2x more EMP is conservative, you could probably push it to 3x as many EMPs built over a match when you get familiar with this sort of playstyle. Just imagine how much of a force of nature you'd be in your Silver lobbies, when you play as a Sombra who has EMP 2-3x as often as every other Sombra player in your rank. That alone will carry you into gold, let alone the pressure itself you'd be doing by increasing your overall damage uptime.
Don't focus too heavily on target priority, just go for target convenience that lets you keep your pressure up as consistently as possible, and I promise you'll climb faster than any other hero. You have the potential to apply this sort of playstyle. Just gotta shift your mind around it with some practice and dedication.
Fun fact btw: hack+virus+melee kills a Tracer, with her having .5 second to react with recall (if she has it). Dont even have to land a single shot on her. Most Sombra players don't realize this break point, but it's very useful in shutting down enemy Tracers or forcing them to disengage. That's one of the few duels where you do want to lead with hack :)
That NO to the widowmaker pasive was so royal sounding 😂
But which passive? Old or new?
The Sombra and Kiriko sharing a moment was cool
I know the title is meme-y, but most Sombras in Silver are actually worse than this. This was one of those rare times she worked well.
This person should stop hacking every time. I get it's a habit from before the rework but the current hack isn't as integral for damage anymore. Now it's mostly just a huge "I'm going to shoot you now" warning. Use the suprise to make sure the cube lands at least, the extra 10 damage the hack does is just slightly more than a bullet.
I weirdly seem to lag more In comp and it irritates me I’ll play qp for a few games before and it’s fine and as soon as I play comp lag kicks in 🙄
As a Silver Sombra…I’m scared to watch this video
Okay so shes in the fights but she could fight someone other than the tank though. All her cool downs have been on Roadie, just mix it up a little on id say.
i feel the soldier 😢
any idea when the next potg bingo is ?
Friday hence Bingo Friday
This game was definitely weird.
W emongg
sr is BS in ow now , ranks are irrelevant
This guys game sense and movement/aim makes it seem like they’re smurfing in silver, and likely an ego vod lol. Definitely don’t think they’re super high up in the ranked ladder, but kinda feels like they’re just toying with the silver players? Idk lol
Not really. The game was a meme.
nah this guys aim and viruses are garbo. the only thing he knows how to do well is teleport straight up but even them he lands right in the enemy anyway
This is just an average silver lobby. They have very little awareness and never peel whenever there’s a Sombra. Even then, they were constantly hacking people they didn’t need to, that’s very much a metal rank thing.
Not the case. This is essentially my gameplay after the rework too and I'm silver 2. Very few of us have mastered the rework yet so we are still stuck in high silver/low gold, when we used to be diamond/plat pre-rework. Not smurfing, just not able to climb just yet.
Sombra was not plat. Bad aim. Highest I say is gold. She hacked more packs than enemies.
Hey guys I'm the bastion in this video :)
I haven't started the video but im gonna guess they run around invisible way too much. When i last played ranked, i was in diamond but far too often id seen Sombra not engaging in the team fight and running around invisible hacking HP kits and basically doing nothing
Sombra needs to have lowered HP from here on out to gain balance in gameplay. shes able to do way too much without real consequences upon making mistakes and the skill ceiling for Sombra feels very low because of her kit. have her HP lowered to 175 like Widowmaker. there isnt too much I can do, personally in Silver, when shes always behind my team hacking backline and not being within the realm of dying by time shes found out. She has invisibility for fucks sake... that alone should be enough for the HP drop to make her feel more pressure and feel more risk/reward types of effect, instead of just outright slaughtering everyone with the low skill ceiling
How to counter Sombra: 1. Don’t be alone 2. If you’re alone, turn around and shoot randomly. Congratulations you now know how to deal with Sombra as literally every character that isn’t countered by her
How to counter Sombra: be a Support player. done.
Srsly unless you are a Zen you can just duel the Sombra. Many of the DPS are also favorable vs her. Dont think she needs massive buffs either, but the rework on her was (as usual) laghable.
i kind of agree. it feels annoying when you get hacked and get some damage and she just teleports away like wtf lol
If you play with your team stuck together she'll never have chance. Take brawlers like Zarya, Mei, brig and shell be rendered useless. Don't take an Ashe and play from afar expecting to win the 1v1, same with widow. Widows health was decreased because she can one shot, sombra can't. She struggles against some supps like ana, bap, Kiri, brig; Moira can easily escape, Zen is a free kill if he doesn't stick with the team, same for weaver. So yeah. She doesn't need a health reduction. The reason tracer has such low health is because she can regain it all with a good reaction
Worst bronze take
