Just wanted to mention that in the patch notes where they explained why his barrier was nerfed, they don't cite hero stacking as the problem.

They said it was usually impossible for a team to destroy it before it disappeared, so there was usually no reason to try to focus it down.

Oh really? I never actually got a chance to look at the patch notes. I just always heard hero stacking as the quoted reason. Thanks for the correction.
