Hmm, perhaps it could've been an interesting idea to have Sombra get backstabbed, be caught off-guard in his scheming for once, and go crawling to the heroes for help, lol. (Hey, it would be something other than him just dying again, I suppose; perhaps he could've been the next Discord in a way)
The thing that would be iffy on "just about the same" would be Tirek getting up to his second form, and how proactive Sombra would've been in comparison.
And yeah, I think Tirek was definitely a more... imposing G1 villain.
Also, Sombra needing them when it's clear he got defeated under Celestia and Luna's combined power in his backstory would add up more than whyever "Grogar" didn't decimate Celestia before the series began, even if he were like, half as powerful as he was in S9 (that just wouldn't be the most ideal time to do anything, probably).
