Why they don’t do anything to D.Va ?
I was playing on a Quick Match, and i wonder why they nerf Yrel, Genji and so many heroes before but do not do anything to D.Va ?
You can kill her robot but after a talent (i don’t know which one but) she fills the E skill’s bar so fast.
Really fast !
We kill her robot, using Q skill in pilot form and after 30 second she re-call her robot with almost full charge !?
What do you think about that ?
She’s feast or famine. When she’s in feast mode, yes she’s incredibly OP. When she’s in famine mode, she’s worthless.
D.va in Mech can be annoying at best, not strong. Her Q gives ton of MS and knocks you back. W reduces your dmg if youre in it. E - self destruct, noice dmg, rarely hits without teams help. Gives 0.5 kill when destroyed, and tbh, its one of the easiest targets in the game.
Pilot mode - you better choose pilot modes talent to get ez charge for mech. Deals decent dmg with AA and ult, has dash ability from talent, and can get instantly mech back at lv 20 if she hits 2 targets with it i believe.
But the problem is why u never see her in rankeds, like ever, not even in gold. She is weak AF mah bro. Mech deals no dmg, defensive matrix has nothing on ranged heroes + it can be cancelled by CC. Pilot d.va can be killed very easily.
What u can do against d.va? Play around her after she uses her boosters. I believe it has like 10s cd and after that she has even less MS than normal heroes. You can keep her low health in Mecha mode and wait for opportunity to blast her right after destroying the mech.
Sorry mate, i dont see what you see OP at D.Va. Mages for mech, stuns/roots for pilot mode and she will become useless like a Tassadar

D.va’s defensive matrix only works if you cast it ON THE ENEMY not the targets.
So you have to be infront of the enemy to do it. Wich makes you prone for stuns.
Since alot of heroes are high mobility… they just jump out of the defensive matrix. To fix it… they have to make it activatable and allow it to be used even when stunned and able to be combo’d with her Q.
This will make her an amazing peeler but her damage is still bad
Nothing OP about her. She’s arguably the squishiest ‘warrior’ in the roster who relies on gimmicks to be both annoying and/or stay alive. Aside from forcing body-blocks or knockbacks with Q to peel/kill, her only tanking ability is Matrix, which is both interruptible, only has a small/moderate size and hasn’t got the best CD.
Her true strength is zoning (explosion), solid waveclear and good poke via Pilot, as well as being a solid distraction in general, yet her weakness is having a big red mark on her back in mech-form that makes her prone to control (interrupts most of her kit), and her most powerful form being so fragile. Yes, she can fill up that bar pretty quick later in the game, yet we’ve all seen D.Va’s being interrupted trying to save themselves, or being annihilated in both forms by co-ordinated combos.
TLDR she’s not a tanky tank, she’s not comparible as a clearer, and kill pressure relies on gimmicks and support.
She’s currently ranked at the 6th least played character or 77th most played character in Master rank, with a 2.2% pick rate, so I think we can safely say she is not OP and has not been recognised as such by the top players.
Youre standing in her pistol-ultimates line of fire with multiple heroes.
That reduces her mech-cooldown for each hero hit.
It’s a positioning / cc mistake on your end.

Increase summon mech time, then there is counter play to infinite-summon play. Hitting a 0,5sec window is pretty narrow.
No, she is not OP. If you play her well, you’ll know how to play agains her, and picks like Ala, Garrosh and Stukov totally ruin her.
