He is in every single game, please nerf him because the only counter to Rein is another Rein, remember almost 100 percent pickrate means he is busted, just like Dva was!
100% pickrate with zero changes, it’s almost like the meta is causing his pickrate.
Just because you don’t want to think about how pickrates show what heroes are OP doesn’t mean all pickrates are useless.
Use some basic critical thinking and you’ll be able to figure how what is causing different heroes’ pickrates.

No man, Dva had almost 100 percent pick rate but she was considered OP because of it, all of a sudden Rein is 100 percent and nobody bats an eye! Sad!

Because she got changed that caused that. Reinhardt didn’t. Reinhardt has a high pickrate because other heroes got changed/introduced.

D.VA was at a high pickrate because she could challenge dps too easily on top of having arguably the most versatile kit in the game. Reinhardt just happens to be the only tank that synergizes with Zarya, Hanzo, Brigitte (flex), Widowmaker, Mercy, and Zenyatta. Poor guy wasn’t ready to be meta.

Lol. I can’t tell if you’re joking. Every DPS is a counter to Rein. Orisa’s fortify is meant to stop his charge.

Forums: “Rein is useless now because he’s stunned every 2 seconds, he needs buffs”
Also forums: “Rein is OP, he’s in every game. Please nerf”
I sincerely hope the devs stopped listening to all ‘feedback’ a long time ago.

he is very meta situational, he synergises with zarya, who synergises with brig (and rein) who synergises with Hanzo, who synergises with Mercy, who synergises with Zen. Rein was trash during dive, and now in Dragonball meta his value outshines that of during dive meta. Who knows how Hammond Meta will affect him, I personally believe that he will become off meta due to triple dive meta being a staple meta (just my guess from a platchat though 
)

Popular and viable =/= OP

well I know this is a joke but seriously Deathball needs a slight nerf. Ofcouse snipers too.
Snipers are running rampant after the dive nerfs and the single release of a new hero that completely shuts it down.
The next best thing to counter snipers is Reinhardt.
Reinhardt is hopeless! He’s only there to take all the hits that nobody else can take!
Rein has always been popular, he is the mercy equivalent to tanking.

Except he literally has not changed at all since day 1, minus the Earthshatter height reduction.
He’s 100% dependent on the meta and who else is popular, even Jeff said that himself. Here it is:

Rein does have counter which is dive. But since dive is so hard to pull off, yeah a better Rein will suffice for that. Spam comp on defense can help if the Rein doesn’t have a lucio.
Rein OP? Lol

100% pick rate doesn’t mean that HE is busted necessarily. And he isn’t. He’s not overpowered. He’s just the current meta flavor.
To be honest, a good dive comp can still counter him if the heroes that counter dive aren’t run. Hammond will probably change the tank meta. And, believe it or not, I think Orisa is going to start making a little progress in the pick rate department after Hammond’s release.
