      Adrianofcon when she first came out, she was just meh. And when they buffed her the first time they gave her some really nice upgrades. Her moving shield has saved me from many of DVA ults, and the 6 turrets were perfect.
      Then everything changed when the nerfs attacked. I still play her, and she’s my main on dp, but damn if they haven’t ruined her ult and cut her power in half. They even messed up her teleporter.

    I remember one time, back when Mercy's Valk instantly reset her Rez, I killed a torb as a sym who had walked into my turret trap. Mercy walked right up to the body, but not close enough to notice the turrets, rezzed him in the middle of my turret trap, and walked off. I proceeded to melt the torb again. Mercy ulted, rezzed torb in the turret trap again, flew off before the turrets could kill her, and left the poor torb to get melted down for the third time in 15 seconds...
    I got PotG for that...

    To anyone saying this video doesn't make sense anymore or anything among those lines: Symmetra gets a "level up" at the end that shows her new ult. Meaning, it's acknowledged that she doesn't use those methods anymore and got a rework.
    Also on a more personal note: I like the rework partly, however, I miss the mini shields and being able to lift up player corpses and other things.
