With the launch of Overwatch<\/a> Season 2, Sierra has entered the game<\/a> as the title’s 51st character. But if the early reaction to Sierra’s introduction is any indication, she may need to be nerfed soon because her ultimate attack can cause massive amounts of damage to opposing players.<\/p>\n

When Sierra has 1800 points, her ultimate can fire a drone that drops 23 bombs, each dealing 180 damage. The bombs’ impact can be felt up to three meters away, and there’s not much players with slower characters can do to avoid being caught in the lethal aftermath.<\/p>\n

“I love the drone grapple, [but] her [ultimate] is ridiculous and literally needs to be nerfed today,” .wrote a player on Reddit<\/a>. “Also not a fan of every 6 second aimbot. Love her character design though.”<\/p>\n

Another player likened Sierra’s ultimate<\/a> to a “carpet bomb,” and others have called for the attack to be weakened<\/a> and for the price of her ultimate<\/a> to be increased. Sierra’s auto-aim ability has also received some complaints.<\/p>\n
