Talk:Sombra VS. Skye/@comment-31448850-20170305000002/@comment-31448850-20170307203435

I sure did. It shows a lack of research on the part of the author, because when this was written she was still overnerfed into being the weakest character on the roster and had been for months. Basing it entirely on "feats" is also an unfair bias because the only info we have on Skye is an outdated blurb that's over a year old and the devs still haven't put the lore for the game in yet.

Sure, maybe Sombra can hack her weapon or ult, but if you want to extend things like having Sombra use her hacking glove as an energy whip, Skye's knives enter just as easily as a zero-tech means to counter her. Other than a couple of fringe cases, Paladins characters use magic and not technology for their abilities, and magic does not exist in Overwatch (other than the extremely rare and foggy area that is Genji and Hanzo), so her stealth would be unaffected and allow her to get the drop on Sombra with ease.

Especially now that she's gotten buffed, on raw mechanics alone, Skye would absolutely annihilate Sombra, repeatedly. On lore, it's not fair to judge it when there's actually nothing to go on-- I'd be willing to give this a DKO status as Skye is unassailably the queen of holding up her middle finger at her killer as they die horribly from poison.
