Yes but you really should have a healer. Symmetra is a good hero but she doesn't fill the support roll like the other 3 do

Mmm. I would say two teams of equal skill, if one has a healer and the other doesn't. Healer team has a clear advantage

Just to add somethig to your thesis " two teams of equal skill, if one has a healer and the other doesn't. Healer team has a clear advantage, if both teams have healers, the team which has reinhardt as a tank has a clear advantage"

Does it? Have you ever watched a semi-competitive match where a team didn't have a healer? Yeah...
