Obviously sniper classes need to have 1 shot capability to not be completely worthless, but to have a 600 hp hero with self heal in the game capable of that every 8 seconds seemed out of balance. The nerf is to force Hog players to stick with their team like a tank and hook enemies into the team for a group kill. Plus, Hog is more balanced against dive heroes now with the faster shots and extra round. He actually has a fighting chance against Tracer now if you happen to miss an extremely difficult hook.

I dunno if there's a reason to complain about Symm, she's not played much and if so everyone should know how to counter her now.
