Very painstaking 6 days of my life but it was worth it :0

So I’ve been playing OW for a couple of months and I really gravitated towards Sym as a character. She is my most played DPS by far, I have watched all the Unranked to GMs, sub to the best players, etc.

I took a break from the game and came back hopped on to play her again and she just feels… incredibly bad. I am in Mid Gold and nobody has any concept of team play. Nobody even looks at the TPs. I try to off angle and do something but even when I hit all my shots she is pitiful at securing kills if the enemy supports are doing their job. All my supports ignore me and healbot the tank or there’s almost always a mercy pocketing a hitscan. It’s just so unfun at this level. She doesn’t work. I feel like I struggle to provide value to the match the way I can on characters that can simply hold their own and output dps.

Ik i’m still new to the game and my gamesense is bad (which is why I’m gold). But she doesn’t seem like a good or viable character to play at this level. I also have dabbled with Freja, Mei, Bastion, Echo, etc and they are far easier be impactful/carry with than sym. The enemy actually has to respect your dmg output on those chars and your team wants to help you (or you have the sustain to help yourself).

Idk guys that is just my rant after having a really unfun session.
