Match starts DVA vs Zaryia, so understandably DVA goes Orisa, except by this point it’s mid and perks are assigned but still hard to get. Orisa’s fortify is an absurdity against Zaryia, so they should counter, but can’t because it undoes perks.
Highlighting yet another fundamentally flawed game mechanic.
It’s literally the game designers’ job to understand these mechanics and adjust them so they’re not like that.
Surely it’s time to accept that the game is so “complex” (in the scientific sense) that essentially it’s not possible for average people to balance. And I do mean average.
Perks are earned faster as the match progresses, so if you switch half way you’ll get your tier 2 perk very fast, snd your tier 3 perk faster than you would have gotten with the initial hero you pick.
The real question is if you should ne able to switch minor and major perks for your hero in the spawn room.

How about you just get good and play the game without needing to swap.
Orisa counters Zarya now? Forumers keep coming up with some hilarious meta strats

Yes, OP, you should definitely run Orisa into Zarya. It is the winning play. Heh heh heh heh heh

If a perked Zarya is losing to an Orisa I have so many questions and I need the replay code.
We actually all need it, for science.

Zarya is a DVa counter, only if the pink bunny plays like a bot.

No, Zarya counters Orisa… spin doesn’t block beams…
Though I do think perked up orisa is actually quite a firm stop to Zarya. The bonus fortify heath perk is strong against Zarya (her mag is quite limited at times and you really make her burn through it with the 100 hp extra + damage res) AND If and only if you get the barrier you completely nullify her damage from a wide angle with huge uptime and she also loses the one advantage she had.
Perked up orisa that doesn’t feed bubble charge actually destroys Zarya I think…. But until you get barrier it’s not fun.
IDK whats worse, people brutally misusing the “Hard” counter expression, dudes unironically believing Zarya is a Terminator with no counters (Forum Zarya strikes again) or players switching to … Orisa? to counter Zarya?
Man, perks have nothing to do with any of the flaws of anything happening in OP lol.
well, Dva switch for Orisa… Well, I guess you’re bronze player to think you can counter Zarya with Orisa
IDK which is worst : Dva player switching for Orisa, or Raiden complain again about this counter, instead using the head and help Orisa ?
