Talk:Sombra VS Spy/@comment-27367414-20170913121534/@comment-97641-20170914000726

You make some good points, so let me explain my reasoning;

Health Packs

 * You could argue that using the TF2 Health Packs or no Packs would give Sombra an unfair disavantage
 * You could argue that, like the Overwatch Health Packs, the TF2 ones are spawned by technology; they do have a dispenser afterall.
 * You could argue that Sombra could hack the Spawn Door close.
 * There are other factors to this fight, so we can continue without the health packs if you insist.

Backstab

 * I didn't mean that Sombra had knowledge of the concept of backstabbing; I meant that she knows what an ambush is and that her teleport can escape ambushes. It's only natural for someone aware of an ambush to look out, and that's coincidentally a good way to prevent backstabs.
 * Sombra's SMG can do enough damage to kill Spy before he can react, and it can do this at medium range. In regards to the Spy; it's actually better than the backstab. Sure it can't do much against tanks; but this duel has no tanks and spy is frail.
 * Furthermore the SMG does not need to strike the backside to work, so it's way more flexible.
 * Sombra's health is rather low like the Spy's so Spy could kill her with the revolver relatively quickly if his ambush worked.

Also what argument is this? "a clever opponent like Spy can just predict when she'll strike" ...Sombra's not clever too?

"Sombra will be wasting time hacking stuff that Spy knows he won't need for against somebody like Sombra." That's not much of an argument. If Sombra hacks Spy's kit, he can't hide or use Dead Ringer; that's a significant disablement of his stealth and defensive abilities.
