Will Sym be continued to be ignored to Beta 3?

So Sym is currently a highly debated hero.

But no matter could or not be changed, Devs will have to address Sym eventually.

She seems to have not been touched for OW2 beta yet besides the whole DPS group speed passive.

We know for Beta 2 so far, we will see Mercy, Moira and Ana changes. (along with a possible new hero.)

But Sym seems so far, seems to be ignored again.

I am starting to question if Sym will be ignored again for the next Beta.

Or will she be ignored all the way to OW2 PVP release.

(Also starting questioning how much this OW2 beta 2 will have… or will it just a repeat of OW Beta 1.)

Symm has some balance changes in the upcoming beta.

To manage expectations, we’re not talking about a full rework (that would require new vfx, anim, etc), however they are some rather meaty adjustments that will both require some adjustments in playstyle and some time to acclimate

As always, we’ll be closely monitoring feedback and performance data

If I’m here talking about it, it’s highly unlikely

Probably because there are dozens of people who are working their butts off in preparation for the announcement

Me leaking or giving any sort of indicator on what to expect is incredibly disrespectful of their time, efforts, and energy
