Apparently Blizzard is trying to arbitrarily balance Symmetra so that she’s more useful on offense.
I can say with complete authority that trying to get your class with the smaller sentries to be offensively-viable rather than staying on defense with larger sentries is a bad idea. Here’s a handy graphic explaining why:
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
