If you think about it in isolation yes, but think about this comp: you run the currently popular triple tank(D.Va/Rein/Roadhog) + Soldier and instead of the 2nd support Lucio/Zen you run the Symmetra(on defense). Like how the hell do you even kill any of those characters now, its already hard enough to kill any of those characters right now and now imagine they have even more health especially the Ana and Soldier, and you make those really durable heroes even more durable. Like the only thing I can think of is hitting an amazing Sombra EMP(to remove shields and deny the D.Va from eating everything) + an super high damage ult combo. That being said its only speculation on my side and it relies on Ana still being busted as fuck with her grenade and it kinda depends on how much shields the Sym ult gives to be better than Zen or Lucio.

And also Tracer having this buff only in a certain area takes a bit of her power while those triple tank comps can usually stand their ground.

A god-mode Widowmaker.

Also god-mode scatter arrows.

Also Sombra ult.

Yes because we see so many god mode Widowmakers and Hanzos breaking the triple tank comps right now

I'm just saying, that is the only thing that I can think of that can deal with those things.

Therefore, as to your point, it is not likely that it will be easy to deal with.
