I think you will be surprised by how much D’va hard counters Hanzo, she has always been insane against him.
D’va DM completely destroys Hanzo’s primary and makes it incredibly hard to get value out of him, it is also incredibly good against his ultimate, being able to eat it even if Hanzo shoots it into a wall.
I don’t know how D’va will fair against Storm arrows because we really haven’t seen much of D’va since the Hanzo rework but I think she will still be somewhat decent against it. You have to remember Hanzo still gets 99% of his value from his primary, Storm is still a 10second CD ability meaning that if D’va can shut down his primary, Hanzo won’t be run.
That’s an interesting change. Out of curiosity, do you and the team have a vision for the role that DVa is supposed to play on the battlefield? I think part of the frustration with her right now is that she seems like a generalist character without a defined role (a la Soldier), so folks are finding it hard to define the appropriate time to use her.
Defense matrix its too short on duration so a good hanzo will totally melt you with his storm arrow, trust me i know, and if you wait until his storm arrow ends and somehow survived, half of the team are already on you gaining free ult charge
Sad day for overwatch. Devs are hell bent on bring back this hero to meta when she was must pick for 2 years. Oh no d.va is not being picked for recent meta, better buff her immediately.
Look at roadhog. Dude has been off meta since s4. GG go next.
The only thing this buff will do is make stalling even worse, because that’s all she will be good for. So you can fly from 2cp spawn and then fly around the point to stall a bit more, ay.
Wet flying paper bag will still be wet flying paper bag even if she flies at people more often.
Matrix won’t protect her when flying, so she can nyoom around doing her pathetic poke damage just a bit more and be just as little impact and feed just as much as before.
D.Va finally getting a buff and of course it’s one that solves none of her issues and will probably hurt her in the long run when she does become viable again.
