When it comes to a live service game like Overwatch 2<\/strong>, the game must be constantly patched to ensure it is balanced. Some characters tend to overperform while others tend to underperform over time. To ensure that all choices are viable, game developers balance creates patches to ensure that all characters feel fun but fair. This is especially true when games introduce new characters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But oftentimes, game developers hit a character with a nerf too hard. This is precisely what happened to Sombra<\/strong> in Overwatch 2. Sombra was a premiere character in Season 1 of Overwatch 2 but now, she is borderline useless. That is why Blizzard developers have said they are currently working on making Sombra better in the future.<\/p>\n

Is Blizzard Planning To Buff Sombra?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In Season 1, Sombra was the best assassin DPS in the game as she could easily access the backline and shred Tank units. However, she was doing too well and Blizzard had no choice but to hit her with nerfs. But Blizzard has done too much and now Sombra has a very low pick rate in Overwatch 2. However, that seems to be changing very soon.<\/p>\n

Actively working on some changes for Sombra, but won’t be for Season 3. Hopefully have more to share soon!<\/p>\n
