Details[]

Symmetra creates a two-way teleporter that allows teammates to instantly teleport to a location that Symmetra links it to, by choosing the exit teleporter up to 30 meters away from her, at virtualy any solid ground, be it parallel to her or higher/lower, even moving plataforms. When it is placed, the other end of the teleporter is instantly created in front of Symmetra.

The teleporter will stay active until the user cancels it. If the entrance and exit are more than 40 meters apart, they are automatically destroyed. It can also be destroyed by enemies regardless of if they destroy the exit or the entrance. It has 50 regular HP, and 250 shield HP, for a collective 300 HP. After 3 seconds of not taking damage, the shield HP will regenerate at rate of 30 health every second.

Certain ultimate abilities can move around with Teleporter such as Ashe's B.O.B. (while running), D.Va's Self-Destruct, and Junkrat's RIP-Tire.

The teleporter takes 1.5 seconds to create. Players must wait 1 second after using the teleporter to use it again. An Interact Key is needed to be correctly binded.

Trivia[]

  • Teleporter was one of Symmetra's two ultimates prior to June 26, 2018.
  • When it was an ultimate, a Symmetra on the enemy team would say nothing, but an allied or player-controlled Symmetra would say "Teleporter online. I have opened the path." When she placed a teleporter, a member on the enemy team would announce its existence and prompt their teammates to find it. The first enemy to spot a teleporter would inform their teammates about the finding with a voice line. The same occured when it was destroyed by an enemy.
