There's nothing in the game that's a real counter to the current implementation of DM, there's nothing as easy as an on/off switch that any character can do to properly counter her. Zarya has to get high charge;SymmetraMei has to survive in near-melee range; Sombra needs to be in range and channel her hack in about a second without taking damage after announcing publicly she came out of stealth, hoping the team can burst her down in 6 seconds; Winston gets destroyed while he takes 10 minutes tickling her out of her mech; Rein can't get close since the triple tank meta is not a thing anymore. The amount of effort it takes to counter that ability is incredibly disproportionate to what she has to do in order to negate 95% of the damage output in the game.
i'd probably be fine with DM if they put in a visual indicator regarding how low dva's DM meter is. shields have cracks to tell us the health of them, dva's DM should show something similar. and increased the cool down slightly
OUR TRACER JUST SOLO ULTED A LEVEL 1 TORBJORN TURRET FUCK ME!!!

Sometimes it's about sending a message.
S2 had Zarya being OPso running Dva was just feeding her grav and S3 Dva was broken for different reasons.The thing is, nobody was complaining about this stuff back when DVa wasn't considered a meta character. She still was able to DM anything that was thrown out back in season 2/3 once her DM ability was changed. And yet nobody said anything then, but all the same issues you just stated were there then.
The fact is OW is a team game, and DVa is easily outmaneuvered if you have a flanker distracting her DM. Just like Reinhardt gets into trouble if people are on opposite sides of him and he can't shield both directions, all you have to do is approach DVa at two diagonals and at least one person can get around her DM. If there's a Pharah in the air, DVa can't do horizontal and vertical at the same time either. Okay, yeah, sure, she deletes all incoming fire if your entire team is all shooting from the same direction. But that's the whole point of switching up strategies.
The fact that there isn't a character that can solo delete DVa with ease doesn't mean she's OP. And besides, Symmetras and Tracers have done really well against me if they are super mobile, and I run away from most Zaryas in a 1v1 fight. And good Sombras fuck me up too.
I'd be okay with this.
Because the balance changes, she wasn't an issue when you could run certain comps, now that those characters aren't viable anymore she became an issue. Remember triple tank, the Reins that went off into a team swinging their hammer on everyone? Think you can do that now? No. But it's not like Rein is a different character. Genji was useless back then, and now is super strong, but they did nothing to him.The thing is, nobody was complaining about this stuff back when DVa wasn't considered a meta character.

You probably got hit by someone else while getting hit by scatter.
The D.Va defense matrix is very oppressive (abafadi uses her at top 500 PS4 & GM PC levels, these are his words...). It's not fun to play against, I stopped using ana because DM + monkey shield = no heals. I used her a lot this season because I like winning but it wasn't a lot of fun running around just matrixing everything.
Scatter is the only normal ability in the game that can 100% one-shot Zarya and Orisa (400HP heroes). His scatter does 450 total (max) damage, so it's definitely possible the scatter took him out of the mech with no one else firing at him.
Something in the low 2000s lol, like 2.3kishWhat was the SR? Everyone got dropped 100-300 SR this season hence the salt.
If only we had a hook of some kind that pierced DM.

Well, there are things that can be done about that.also i hope you people asking for dm nerfs know what you're asking for
Give me DVA DM spam all day babyee. At least any player can run behind DVA and wack her in the ass. Pharmercy can only be immediately shutdown by 3 or 4 characters.also i hope you people asking for dm nerfs know what you're asking for
Everyone uses the same heroes in the World Cup. This is boring....
Audience got excited when they picked offmeta heroes as a goof. Lol
Is Pharahs "I am the Rocket Queen" a reference to the Gun 'n Roses song, 'Rocket Queen'?
Its the only other time Ive heard the term "Rocket Queen" used anywhere else.

BTW, I wish D.Va was more of a Dive Tank than a Defense Matrix bot as she is ATM. While I didn't like her super-duper tanky nature before her Armour and HP was reversed, I do miss the fact that she could bully players into submission.
Thats the only way I can see a big DM nerf not taking her out of the game. A significant buff to her damage. Which....might be kinda cool, actually. After all, those guns she's firing are shotguns, but they're pretty shit ones other than being able to fire infinitely.
If she was firing Reaper's Hellfire shotguns, instead of whatever she's got now then I'd be okay with a big nerf to DM. She'd swoop in like a psychotic killer rabbit and destroy anyone she found. But then people will complain about D.Va killing you, so....
I wish I could understand the Junkrat obsession in these high plat/low diamond games on PC. Instalock in every single game, ugh.
Well, I had a bunch of players yelling at me for killing them as Zenyatta, claiming he was "overpowered" and "cheap". Comes to show that no matter what you do, there are some players that refuse to adapt and learn from their mistakes.
But I honestly would like to try out D.Va with a nerfed DM in exchange for her Fusion Cannons to get a damage buff. Because I had a lot more fun harassing players as D.Va, instead of my team baby sitting me.

We can try it out if we can get a big enough gaf group together. I already have a modified preset with some alterations in characters I like. I can't change the recharge rate of DM, but I can set it to have a much higher cooldown and up the damage of her guns. We just need 10 other people to try it out.
Night of the lepus?
Ooooooooooh, I was wrong. They must have updated it, because now I CAN alter the recharge rate and the maximum time.
HMMMMMMMM
Edit: Maybe they didn't change anything and I just remember it wrong, because I can't actually change the cooldown, just the max time and recharge rate. So that limits my options because no matter what, D.Va is always going to be able to DM after 1 second. Hm....
Edit 2:
Okay, those are the changes that I made to each heroes. Does anyone want to come test them out?
Darn. I want to, but I only have the PC version.
I don't get it either and he was my first favorite character at launch.I wish I could understand the Junkrat obsession in these high plat/low diamond games on PC. Instalock in every single game, ugh.
Send me an invite when it's ready, 'cause I'm down to try it out.
Well, it's either choosing that or making a gif from the films Celia, The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, or Donnie Darko for expressing the idea of D.Va becoming a "Killer Bunny Rabbit".
Because the bunny from that Monty Python movie is overused at this point.
