I'd put a link to the Oversheet right here but apparently the owner doesn't maintain it anymore and the unofficial wikis are all garbo
anyway Sombra was finally unveiled
also this being Blizzcon weekend the world cup will be finishing up, US had a strong opening in the prelims, looks like Russia and Sweden are the teams to beat

her preview video specifically shows her using it to counter a lucio ult though
It most likely destroys hp shields, too Meaning it practically deals 150 damage to Zenyatta, 200 damage to Zarya, 100 damage to symmetra, and 25 damage to everyone applying a symmetry shield, as those shields don't regenerate in combat- All on top of removing barriers and preventing abilities
are you saying someone on Reddit lied to me???

tbf, preview videos have lied before
It runs playably well on my surface book which is pretty shit as far as gaming specs go, so probably (though I'm not up to date with graphics cards enough to evaluate your system specifically).
what about that is a budget build
You'll definitely be fine with that setup. Blizzard is pretty good about making their games accessible to old rigs.
EDIT: Though I just noticed your GPU and now I'm confused as to why you call that a budget build.
Wow used to run on a ham on rye
I constantly make the joke I play it on a tandy 2600
I also have no frame of reference for Blizzard games beyond Hearthstone.

Glad to know I shouldn't have any trouble though, thanks y'all.
They are pretty consistently designed to run on trash cobbled together from frequent sojourns into the irradiated wastes that exist beyond The Wall.
It looks like minecraft, but by god, it does not so much as stutter when 12 ults are used.
For reference the 970 hits like 135 or so.
I didn't see anything there which suggests it kills shields
e: looks like the designer guy says it does later on
I doubt it'll work on Mei while she's ice-blocked but boy am I looking forward to not even letting her hit it in the first place.
Like, Winston being a low pick and Zarya as a must pick in any given comp? Well sure you can change their kits or buff/nerf them, or you can introduce a hero with new mechanics that make Winston a much more appealing pick.
And people can rightfully be a bit worried about her being OP, but she's still at most 1/6th of a team. The limited team size in this game makes perfect sense to me when you consider that.
Plus, she is no more invisible than some of the other heroes. Some teleport or fly or climb buildings; functionally it's not very different from turning invisible and walking around. The only advantage she has over the others is being able to be nearby and see where the enemy is while you're doing that.
Can anyone confirm if she contests objectives while invisible?
I think so, in the video above there's a part where the point is contested while she's invisible, pretty sure she was the only person from her team on it right then
e: yeah I watched it again, she definitely contests while invisible
Personally I think lower team sizes can introduce additional concerns with overtuned characters because of how they'll be competing for limited spots. If one character is the best in a given class, like we see right now with Reinhardt and Lucio, then one of the main features of the game becomes less interesting.
While we won't know for sure until she's properly playable, given just how much utility she provides I'm worried team comps post-Sombra will be locked to Rein/Lucio/Sombra as the baseline.
