It’s never been more joever
Can’t deal damage to armor herself, takes more damage to the armor she’s has.
Winston laughs at her damage
Rein thinks Dva’s there for emotional support.
I don’t know what to do with her other than play defensive and fly away. You take too much damage being agressive and deal borderline nothing yourself.

you use DVa to shoot at armor tank ?
….
Why shoot at armor tank ?
She has booster to reach backline, but you shoot at armor tank ?

You know her weapons are shotguns right? With spread?
It’s generally better to shoot at larger targets since you don’t have to be point blank.
All the tank matchups other than junkerqueen aren’t in her favor after this patch.
Try using boosters on a rein’s backline to kill a squishy and watch as you get charged at from a mile away and get demeched.

Again, why you shoot at tank armor
She is dive tank like Winston, she reach for backline first , not the tank
If you shoot only at tank , its not Dva’s problem

Because you have to shoot at all targets not just 4 out of 5 guy

don’t want to be a jerk or anything but the guy has a gold d.va pfp for a reason xd.
There are times when shooting the tank is the play.
All of this “just use boosters to go for backline”, treating d.va like it’s winston or smth…i just loled.

Dva was designed in OW1 in a 2 tank setup, where she made sense. She is onedimensional and has a massive hitbox. In 5v5 she’s supposed to take soft angles highgrounds, threaten squishies and eat damage. But she doesn’t multitask that well due to the constant focus fire and baiting out matrix. there’s just too much to do. She’s like an office worker that has to do 2 jobs at once. She will burn-out easily unless she’s really not doing anything other than peeling and staying alive. she can also go kamikaze mode but then it’s just rng.

Exactly.
It’s so easy to get drained playing her.
People who say she’s to be played like the other dive tanks are wrong. You’ll get blown up of you try.

if shoot at tank is the play , Mauga is better option
Its not Dva problem anymore , Its ow 2 problem, you counterswap to fit the gameplay
No tank in this game is allowed to be viable in every scenario anymore, there is certain way to completely shutdown. And Devs double down this route
She’s the reinhardt of the dive tanks: either matrix or damage. no sustain abilities, overhealth, self healing, energy charge or fortify. but thats what’s needed in 5v5 tanking. winston at least can jump do damage jump away, he also has more hp a huge shield and can cover large distances. his ult is his sustain ability, which he can charge pretty fast by cleaving through enemies. Dva is single target pew pew. same problem as ball despite all these buffs.

nah there are tanks that are pretty much viable in every situation.
ball, sigma, roadhog for example.
I don’t believe this bs about needing to swap everytime to win when there are tanks that have 100% up time. 
On the plus side, maybe if D.Va falls to an undeniably bad state, they might finally make changes to her that lessen the whole Swapwatch™ thing?
Sorry, that’s the best silver lining that I could come up with. Good luck for the next four weeks.

If only Dva had another ability that helped supplement her damage that came in burst.
If only.

Dva players hate it when enemy players play their counters and have this elitist’s mentality that they should be able to play their hero at all times and never swap lol.

Ball : Sombra
Sigma : Winston
Roadhog : Orisa, Mauga
Oh yes I’m sure that micro missiles that deal all of 3.5 damage on armor will be very useful! Why didn’t I think of that
Such burst damage
Dva players don’t want her to end up in garbage tier over time which is exactly what’s slowly happening.
Keep projecting your elitist mentality

Tbh D.va is pretty much always in prpetually in community overrating the hell out of her abilties and putting her way higher than where she actually preforms states. So of course its no surprise that people come up with a million reasons why bad changes to her are justified. And anything that says otherwise is wrong despite her actual preformance in game saying otherwise by significant margins.
