The new D.Va in comp isn’t that bad

General Discussion
1

Had enough games in yesterday, it feels more fair towards the supports you could absolutely demolish.

Be more careful about diving in, pick on targets that are not at 100% health, play slightly more conservative.

The only issue I had was with a Pharmacy, which was a problem before anyways.

Took some adjusting but she is by no means dead.

That’s unfortunate. Let’s hope Dva mains get a taste of their own medicine

She is a litle weaker of course. But she is still the best tank

I agree it’s really not that bad after playing with her more.

This nerf is like a tickle or a poke to me, it’s best to stay that way.

So you are asking for more nerfs or what?
Ppl won’t stop complaining until she becomes F tier.

not that bad? it was only a minor change she is basically the same.

It’s exactly how I believe tweaks should happen.

Lots of threads on here saying she is dead or broken which is not true.

My personal fear is that they continue to chip away at her until she’s garbage but I don’t believe that will happen due to the fan base around her. She will always be viable, like Mercy.

How is that complaining? He only says that she is not bad after the nerfs…

To play devils advocate here:

Should your tank be initiating after the DPS to pick off targets? Most people typically argue the opposite: Tank initiates, DPS Finishes.

14

again,
she’s going to stay viable cus she has this thing called Dive backing her up.
Wait til brigitte gets on comp.

Then come back and say “Dva isnt that bad on comp.”

15

Ditto. I completely agree.

16

well you’re wrong my dude.
her pick rate is boosted due to the fact that Dive is still going on.
getting her nerfed and then removing dive will sweep the rug from out beneath her. how can she initiate if the tanks cant even jump in successfully?

for dive to be dead, tanks like dva and winston cannot jump in, get a pick, and have their dps clean up the back line anymore.
That would mean that tanks will not be able to do any of that anymore. That would mean dva will not be able to initiate anymore.

meaning dva is just back to where she was before the DM nerf, back to 1v1ing people, outside of comp.
getting rid of dive will make her nonviable due to the fact that she will not be able to get a pick when necessary.

Dva is a hero that is good in all comps. So even if dive dies, Dva will still be viable. Also dive isn’t even played in lower ranks that much…

wrong.

Her dm is now mainly specific to ultimate denying, and even then she can be outplayed sheerly due to the limited simply due to the short timer on dm.

She cant dive into groups anymore cus taht’ll be smacked off due to the fact dive is dead.
Fusion cannons are trash
Only thing holding her kit together was the combination of her rockets and dps.
thats nerfed.
No reason to pick her except DM again and her ult in higher tier comp.
And even then, brigitte can outright stop ults mid way and then the ult completely resets.

I wasn’t talking about him in particular when I said that.

Are you serious? She ain’t the same, her booster damage was drastically nerfed it literally went from 25 dmg to 10 dmg

  1. Then why is she a main part of tank comps?
  2. In lower ranks Tracer and Winston, too important roles in dive, have low pickrate. And dive is rarely played in those low ranks. So why did Dva have the same pickrate in all ranks?

Thanks…I thought my stance was clear that I obviously would like her to be super strong (look at my playtime) but that’s not fun for the poor soul playing Zen.
