Unstoppable force. No matter what hero you pick in the roster you cant 1v1 her. Shes hopelessly overpowered and needs to have her kit redone and her slot in the hero select screen moved off of HEALER. Do something about this jeff, shes more broken than old sym
Yeah, if you get up in her range, you’re gonna have an issue. Abuse range. Pharah. Junkrat. Hanzo. Widow.
Sure, these characters don’t hard counter her in the sense that brig becomes absolutely useless, but that’s fine. Outplay her as these characters, rather than out-picking heroes.

She’s anti-flanker, so yeah, i guess?

You’re not supposed to 1v1 her. Especially not at close range.
Lets ignore roadhogs hook or flash + FTH shall we ( both of which are balanced but unfun to play against )

You really think so at this point? Brigitte isn’t even usually regarded as good right now. Many people consider her uselessly underpowered outside of niche 3 support comps. I personally think she’s fine, but my opinion is unusual here.
Also, loads of heroes can 1v1 her. Ashe absolutely destroys her and dances on her grave - try playing Ashe if you can’t handle Brigitte.
I think the big problem Brig has is she’s just too tanky with self healing on top meaning she can kill folks with little effort compared in many cases what it takes to counter her. She needs to lose her self heal entirely. She’s meant to be in range (and protecting) another healer, as it is she doesn’t need to be. It’s that or change her to 150 health, 50 armor.
I disagree.
She kills people with little effort if they get too close to her. Don’t get close to her.
That’s too simplistic an argument, you don’t just choose to be in her range all the time 
Ok fine.
If you would like to avoid the fact that Brigitte THRIVES at close range, then try your hardest to stay out of her range, using characters effective at medium range and above, such as Hanzo, Widow, Pharah, and Junkrat. If you find yourself getting killed by brig, you’re ending up in her range for some odd reason, and might be feeding 
Also, just to go a bit further, heroes that can 1v1 Brigitte.
Reinhardt - Does more damage, has more health, and can firestrike her right through her shield. Can also oneshot her via charge. Pretty much no way you can lose to a Brigitte unless they outskill you by a mile.
Dva - Can kite Brigitte until the shield is down and nibble her to death outside of her maximum range.
Roadhog - Has overwhelmingly better damage and can self-heal if he botches up the duel.
Orisa - With intelligent use of halt, can take her down, shield and all, before she can get up to Orisa to attack.
Wrecking ball - Can kite her to death.
Lucio - Can kite her to death. Has self-heal, a ranged weapon, and can push her away. Not a good counter but has no real excuse to ever lose a duel.
Moira - Has a foolproof escape and a shield piercing weapon. Can kite her to death.
Ashe - Pretty much ruins Brigitte’s life completely with dynamite. She can’t block the damage, and it hits both her and her shield (and sets both on fire too!) After that, you can just blast the shield down and kill her. If she gets up to you use the coach gun to do damage and make space at the same time. Almost certainly Brigitte’s hardest counter.
Sombra - Can hack Brigitte which both deprives her of her shield and her ranged attack. She can thus do damage in absolute safety and teleport away if Brigitte isn’t dead by the time the hack ends.
Mei - Brigitte has to drop her shield to attack. You can freeze her, then. Once you freeze her, she’s dead.
Widowmaker, Hanzo, Genji - Brigitte totally lacks vertical mobility so you can snipe her with impunity.
Tracer - You both outrange her and move faster than she does, so you can kite her to death.
Pharah - You hopelessly outrange her and the shield can’t stop your rocket splash damage.
McCree - The shield cannot stop the flashbang if properly used, and you can fan her to death. If she lives, roll away, and kite her until it’s up again.
Doomfist - The shield doesn’t stop 90% of what he does and his much superior damage will win the day.
S76 - Can kite her with impunity due to sprint.
Junkrat - Has vastly better damage the shield can’t stop plus use of mines to gain superior mobility including high ground. He really has no excuse to lose this duel.
Bastion - Just mows her down effortlessly. The shield can’t stop that kind of damage.
Torbjorb - More than able to destroy her shield before she gets close enough to hurt him.

Excuses for bad design, sorry I’ve heard all these excuses and strangely it’s pretty much just Brig that has had all these problems reported repeatedly since launch. There comes a point you just step back and call a spade a spade. Designed to break a meta was bad design to start, as it meant too much capability in one character.
Mitrovarr has some strange obsessions n with defending her broken kit, it’s kind of fun to watch. She’s going to get rebalanced or outright reworked when 2/2/2 becomes a reality before too long. Then you guys can say it was just the whiners who got her changed, can’t wait.

Yes, Brig USED to be ridiculous. Nowadays, she’s relatively balanced on ladder. Definitely beatable.

I didn’t say she wasn’t; I said she still has too much sustain, and a poor design in general.

I used to think so, but after all the nerfs I think she’s fine and I actually really like playing her. She feels almost exactly on the same level as the other off healers, but useful in different situations.

What. She is literally one of the worst heroes. She is only useful in 3 support comps and that doesn’t go so well with the DPS mains on ladder. I think this was made while high.

Shes way too OP. too much reward for minimal risk. I know its a meme at this point but one time i played her, and with no experience i popped off and dominated 2 games in a row. She feels too dirty and cheap to play, at least bastion has weaknesses and needs teamwork to succeed
brig is like pharah, makes some heroes miserable to play but has plenty of counters (that might be why she has a low pickrate)
just that brig can played in a composition that helps her againts her counters
