The new hero of Overwatch, Sigma, has a few nasty skills. Some might cause a lot of frustration for the opponents.
Yesterday, the new hero Sigma was released, who has been making waves on the Overwatch PTR ever since. He is a tank and a master of gravitation, granting him cool abilities like throwing rocks or absorbing fire. However, especially with his ultimate, he is likely to ruin the day for some teams.
The ultimate “Gravitational Flux” lifts all enemy players within a certain radius and drops them to the ground after a short delay, causing them to take 50% of their maximum health points as damage. Heroes with immunities can escape (like Moira), but most are trapped until they are released back to the ground.
What’s particularly cool is that the ultimate lifts players so high that they are no longer within the payload’s effective range. As this clip shows, Sigma can thus end a match single-handedly by simply finishing the overtime of the opposing team with his ultimate.
So… apparently you can do this. I will call this “Sig9” from r/Overwatch
The joy in voice chat can surely be well understood.
Also interesting are combinations with other heroes, such as McCree. In this clip, Sigma manages to lift all opponents. Reinhardt can no longer protect his team and is visibly panicking, trying to turn around. This allows McCree to pick off all opponents out of the air with his ultimate, leaving only Reinhardt.
Sigma + McCree = MaCree – I love this guy already from r/Overwatch
These are just two examples where Sigma’s ultimate can create cool decisions and turn the tide of battle. In the coming days, we are sure to see many more examples.
Have you tested Sigma and experienced some cool plays? How do you like the new Overwatch hero?
