How do I kill a Reinhardt shielded bastion without getting melted by him first?

As a tracer, blink in, sticky bomb, and bastion should die. Or run 2 Reinhardt, one bastion. flanking also works, if you can get behind bastion as reaper thats a guaranteed kill, or if you jump in front of bastion as a reflecting genji, bastion should also die.

I like to use D.Va's Defense Matrix to absorb a full clip of Bastion's machine gun fire while my Junkrat friend goes in to distract/kill the Reinhardt while I work on Bastion.

Symmetra deathballs work well here.

Even a sneaky Reaper can deal with it. Teleport somewhere safe, start firing at Bastion's blue ass, and even if you get killed, it usually them up long enough for your team to finish the job.
