Main Tank vs. Sombra Hack

Sombra's kit of disabling abilities and thus being a hard counter to so many heroes is what bothers me. There's simply no counter play. Well, there is one. What you have to do is hide away from your team as Lucio or Zen with your ult ready when you know Sombra will comein with her EMP any moment now (not like you'd rely on your Lucio/Zen to actually doing that in soloq). Even if it was a legit counter method that a lot of support players would implement into their gameplay when going against Sombra, I bet you that Blizzard wouldn't like that such means of countering a hero is happening. Which at the end leaves us with a reminder that Mercy's mass resururection was removed from the game because it was deemed overpowered. Overpowered not because the ult itself was overpowered, but rather because when you'd implement hiding alongside your ult, that is what would make it overpowered. Neither the player base, nor Blizzard liked that Mercy players would hide, thus why the ult was removed from the game.

So yes, this is both personal and whatever the word is opposite to personal.
