There's no reason at all to pick her over other tanks by fabio 06/19/2016, 10:58pm PDT
Including the not impressive outside of his ult Winston, who is at least a bit useful in certain circumstance.

She is nowhere near as useful as Reinhardt or Roadhog. Even D-Va outshines her.


Her problems are:

-Lowest health of any tank. It doesn't help that it's shields.

-So much coordination required to make her simply mediocre. Still isn't as useful as Reinhardt/Roadhog out of the box.

-Another problem with her shield is the ally one. Nobody knows when it's on them! The visual indicator for this needs to be way more noticeable than it is now.

-"That guy" bitching that I need to switch heroes to fulfill what he thinks is the optimal Warsong raid comp, when he's been playing Zayra all game! YOU switch, motherfucker! Our team comp needs more not-Zaryas!

-I'd argue that her ult is the least useful in the entire game. It's another one of her "useless without team coordination" aspects. It only appears useful because it sets enemies to be killed by other, more useful players and those players walk away with the impression that it wouldn't have been possible without Zayra. There are tons of other doublt ult combos that are devastating, except each individual ult is way better than black hole. "Mei threw down her ult and I was able to Reaper ult them", etc. The only reason people don't get the exact same impression from Reinhardt's ult is that Reinhardt himself as already killed everyone hit by it by the time the rest of his team reacts.

Plus the value of her ult is inflated by your average pub gamer panicking and spending all his time trying to futilely move out of the hole instead of keeping calm and continuing to shoot.
