What are the character that Brigitte cannot counter?

General Discussion

Like seriously? Who are they ? Haven’t find anyone who cannot be countered by Brigitte except Pharah !

Doomfist - Can be countered , his ultimate is also easily countered by her

Genji - Let’s not even talk about it. Can be counter by everyone.

Mcree - Can be countered , easy shield dash and you won ,you will probably not die from a flash and headshot cause you probably had armor still. His ultimate can be also cancelled with the dash. Easy one shot combo by the way

Pharah - Her only counter, but by trying to shoot her , Brigitte’s team will shoot Pharah.

Reaper - Since her dash is every 4 seconds because Blizzard does not know how to fix character, easy kill. His ultimate can be cancelled

Soldier 76 - Easy Dash kill , but her ultimate will not be cancelled, but will not kill Brigitte cause she has a shield and she can just put it during 4 seconds when he will be shooting , so she can dash again.

Sombra - Even though Sombra can use her translocator , Sombra can one shot combo her. BUT , Sombra can hack her, but hey , heal when damaging.

Tracer - Everyone knows that

Bastion - Can put him out of his turret mode by dashing to him, cannot one shot combo still !

Hanzo - Can one shot combo.

Junkrat - Same

Mei - even though she can put herself on cryo-freeze mode , she will not use it before recieving any damage so when she is gonna be stunned by Brigitte , Brigitte will try her one shot combo , not working cause Mei has 250 HP. Still , when she is going to regenerate , Brigitte will have another dash ready.

Torbjorn - Sorry dad

Widow - One shot combo

Dva - dash every 4 seconds, her matrix can’t do anything about it.

Orisa - Now that’s interresting , even though she can fortify herself , that’s not going to help her dash to regenerate.

Rein - Since every new hero and buffs to heroes are all to counter him , I don’t see why Blizzard would not continue and add Brigitte. Easily Counterable even thought he has a shield, during that stun, her team can do damage to him and his team. Bullets cannot pass to shield , but a Brigitte dash can , logic game btw.

Roadhog - When you see one chasing you , just give up , you are so big that you cannot try to avoid her. And don’t try to shot her and grap you , because she has heal when attacking you and she has armor. Oh ? Trying to get away by healing ? Oh well you don’t know well the dash right ?

Winston - Brigitte has armor , Winston can’t do anything for her except extra damage I guess. But will be countered because dash , even though he can jump ,the rest of her team will kill him.

Zarya - Just wait until she does not have buble and boom , nice dash Brigitte.

Ana - ???

Brigitte - her only real counter, who’s betther at dashing will eventually win.

Lucio - Easy one shot combo

Mercy - same

Moira - Even though she can dash , Brigitte has a 4 seconds cooldown on her dash. And can be one shot combo by the way.

Symmetra - Just a quick tip for the Brigitte player , just hold shield during the entire fight and dash when you can.

Zen - What can he possibly do against her ? One shot combo again.

And that’s it. And since Blizzard will add a hero being able to counter Brigitte ,it will be worst. Good luck with this game , i’m done. The only way to win is by playing Brigitte , I have done it and that’s the only way wtf Blizzard.

Oh , and have you played the new competitive FFA mode ? I would personaly call it ‘‘Avoid all Moira’s and Junkrat’s ball… and Brigitte eventually’’

And to everyone who is saying , ‘‘PROS ARE NOT HAVING PROBLEMS WITH HER I DON’T SEE ANY PROBLEMS’’. The majority of players do not like Brigitte , even pros , what are you even talking about ? It’s not because some pros you saw on Twitch can beat her that the entire community of Overwatch can do as well.
Can you do it yourself ? Except if you have a entire team to beat her (Cause you need to be two minimum to beat her, nice healer by the way) or if you are top 500 , you won’t have any problems with her.

Junkrat counters Brigitte a lot.

I usually struggle when trying to approach a Junkrat just because of the bomb spam.

Junk, Pharah, Hanzo, Widow and Bastion are Brigitte’s truest counters.

Mei can be an issue since she’s anti-deathball, and if she’s farming ult since Rally does very, very little to save a team from Blizzard. Doomfist with a pocket Zarya can murder Brig’s team and Brig can’t do anything about the bubbles. If Brigitte winds up in close quarters vs Rein and no one is there to help her, she’s usually screwed. Sombra can deny Brig her shield and flail ability, which severely hampers what she can do. High ground is a major problem for Brig as well. True that Soldier and McCree and Zen on high ground might not be able to kill her quickly, but she can’t exactly do anything to them.

There are good DPS against her, like Junk and Pharah and everyone who can keep his distance.
From Tank/Support perspective…
Zarya is very good. AOE damage is always strong against Brigitte and its easy to farm charge against Brigitte
Moira is also a hardcounter. The orb passes her shield and her range is better. Just shift out of brigittes range and win by outsustaining her easy.

Brigitte is countered by range. In all of your examples, you pretty much dismiss any potential for counters by saying “they can get shield bashed,” but they can only get shield bashed if they choose to keep engaging with Brigitte in an arm-wrestling match. Brigitte can’t stun people that are more than those few meters away, and there’s tons of heroes that can fight effectively at range and completely nullify Brigitte.

McCree has range.
Pharah has range (and the argument that “everyone will focus Pharah” is silly because then you’re moving the conversation from a 1v1 topic to a 1vTeam topic).
Soldier has range.
Bastion has range.
Hanzo has range and good burst damage for getting past armor.
Junkrat has range and good burst damage for getting past armor. Plus, since Brig is a grounded target, low-angled bouncey bombs tend to make her brawl comp fall apart.
Widowmaker has range.
Orisa has range and can provide cover for her allies to make a long range fight better.
Rein can provide cover for his allies to make a long range fight better.
Zarya will gladly enjoy eating up free charge in Brig’s brawls just to Graviton them all together.
Ana has range and anti-heal also wrecks Brig’s favored comps.
Zenyatta has range.

Pick any of these heroes and you’ve got something that, when played right, will counter Brigitte. But I’m not even listening everything, almost every hero can fight against Brig if they just pick their battles wisely.

You may not want to admit it but the fact that the pros in the OWL have shown that Brigitte isn’t necessary nor unbeatable does suggest that she, well, isn’t necessary nor unbeatable. Because as it turns out, you don’t even need to run specific counters against Brigitte, you just need to engage intelligently and avoid meeting Brigitte on the terms she wants to meet you on.

Wow , thank you for your time. I gotta admit you’re absolutely right. I’m felling toxic right now.
