Correct me if I am wrong, but Zenyatta's Ult

I clearly remember using it to counter D.va Nukes, and Junkrat Tires in OW 1 why was it nerfed to just be a rapid HoT effect?

Am I just insane? Misremembering?

Misremembering. It’s always been a massive heal over time.

It makes Zen invulnerable, so it counters those things for *you*, but your teammates will still die.

I’ve heard you can survive Self-Destruct/Riptire by hiding behind an allied Mei using Cryostasis. If that’s true then you might be able to use an allied ulting Zen for the same thing, but even then it’d be spectacularly unlikely.

It counters any ultimate that isn’t a giant one shot. It has never countered self destruct or tire.

You can body block while Ult is active but it’s as effective as any player stepping in front of another.

So you can block a Dead Eye, since all bullets are hitting you. But a Self-Destruct doesn’t care who’s standing in front of who, as long as one of those players has a Barrier, then it counts.

This, but Zen can also still be booped and otherwise knocked back while trans is running.

LoS?
IDK if thats practical, but I believe bodyblocking is possible
