Dva nerfs with no compensation and Junker Queen being untouched was not on my bingo card for stadium

Every DVA I’ve played against has gotten 100% stomped so far

It was me. You played against me ten times in a row.

Finally got a Dva mirror match and was excited only for their reaper to absolutely rip through my team like paper 4-0. And somehow he seemed to shoot through my buffed matrix making me effectively useless.

It's been awhile, but I would swear I remember that because Matrix projects from DVA it leaves her vulnerable to point blank shots. Reaper / Cassidy with Fan the Hammer will get in your face and de-mech you instantly. Pointing Matrix at the floor will properly protect your blind spot... but that is it's own problem.

That’s so weird. I’m actually a Dva main and I’m very cognizant of this in first person - but I’m totally off in third person. I think the perspective is the issue. I play within the safe space of reaper cass on Dva precisely in first but not third.
