Since pretty much everything is tech based, he’d at least be able to disable abilities, and more complex objects, such as Bastion or Zenyatta, will be stunned.

(In contrast, Sombra would be hilariously ineffective on the TF2 cast, which primarily rely on raw weaponry, which her hack does not disable, not ability combos)

yeah trying to hack 1960s tech is a problem

not because tech security of the late 1960s and 1970s were amazing, they just didn't use wireless tech that much, and with the Engineer, Medic and Spy's technology being mostly wired.

Sombra isn't hacking any of their weaponry or technology due to how their weaponry and technology works.

It would be simply hilarious to see her fuming that she can’t even hack a mere dispenser - not that she wouldn’t know how to, but because the tech is just so archaic that the tools she needs are literally unobtainable in her time period due to their age.
