Overwatch Season 5 turns Sombra into a support hero, reworks Roadhog to be less annoying, and adds "cool" vampire Doctrine to the roster

I don't have enough factual information from these excerpts to write a proper synthesis. The provided text contains only a phrase fragment ("Triple threat") and a casual quote about a vampire character, but lacks essential details about:

- What Sombra's support redesign entails

- How Roadhog was specifically reworked

- The new hero's actual name, abilities, or role

- When Season 5 launches

- Any concrete gameplay changes

I need more complete excerpts with actual reporting - descriptions of abilities, patch notes, developer statements, or other verifiable details - to write an accurate summary without inventing facts.

Please provide fuller source material and I'll deliver the synthesis.
