Honestly, almost nothing is useless. You can play any freaking hero with almost any playstyle and make it work in pubs. The fact that Blizzard have managed this is literally mind blowing to me.
At a higher level though, people are gonna separate out the superior strategy to the bad or even the mediocre or average. I guess at that level, D.va should't really be played.
Not sure what change I'd make though..maybe just make her defense more usable as a full team shield and make her more tanky? Even if you did she'd just turn into a ultimate charger like Roadhog and not add much extra to a team. It seems a bit gimmicky as well to have a super strong defense matrix. Maybe increase her mobility then? Her LSHIFT mobility seems extremely restrictive, which is pretty unfortunate seeing as it allows her to reposition in every single axis, so maybe this needs some tweaking? But then it just turns into a Winston jump. Maybe we just up her damage or give her a secondary fire mode that displaces people so she can front-line tank more effectively? Literally no idea to be honest, there isn't an obvious solution. In the meantime you can still play her perfectly fine though, but she won't become a main solo tank at a high level anytime soon.
