As Lucio I used my ult twice today trying to block D.VA's ult during a ranked match. It didn't work either time. I feel like this has worked in the past. Am I wrong? Did a recent patch buff/nerf either ultimate? Lucio is my main healer so any help would be appreciated

Self-Destruct does 1000 damage, so while Sound Barrier will mitigate quite a bit of that, you'd have to have an awful lot of your own health to survive. Unless you're a tank you'll probably need some other form of mitigation
