It just doesn’t make much sense to me. Widow has always been all about the “one shot, one kill” and so far nobody found her bad, but recently there’s been quite some “complaining” from the of OWL players on various twitter posts that she is too opressive.

When Sombra got her buff and was actually a decent pick for about 2 weeks the same OWL players had a meeting with Blizzard devs (Stylosa - Unit Lost, had an interview with Danteh about Sombra, that’s why we know) and basically complaining directly to them that she is too opressive. But widow was okay right from the start?

Somebody explain this to me how does it make sense. A hero that is basically all about “dink headshot, dink headshot” is not OP but Sombra was OP right after her buff? The only thing was the grace period. I do agree it was complete bs hacking somebody behind a wall when they clearly jumped out of LOS so the devs decided to put out a patch for Sombra after 2 weeks without even putting it on PTR first, resulting in a lot of bugs.

Now that we have the reworked hanzo things are even more out of hand. The double sniper comp is so powerful you are literally safe nowehere. I remember playing a game and feeling bad for my zen because he was just getting picked off 3 times in a row by a hanzo in low plat. LOW PLAT. Before the rework no hanzo was able to get an headshots, now they’re getting them left and right. Even in deathmatch when I play Sombra I get headshot for way too much and it sucks the whole fun out of the game.

So where are our OWL players now complaining about hanzo and widow? And not just some minor complaining, something on a same level as they did with Sombra. Clearly it worked so we need that again otherwise we’ll be stuck in this hellhole for a loooong time.

On a side note: When was the last time Blizzard skipped a PTR and just pushed an update to live?
