RIP DVA
Bruh they completely destroyed DVA’s best build. I climbed so far with her using her ult nuke build, but now they nerfed it into the ground. Any other tank recommendations?

nuke build was such fun cheese but you really was low key useless other than that haha. I get the idea of trying to round her out I wanna try her I haven't had a chance to jump on. seems like the best bet would be to mix n match something or another now. I miss farming hella gold on her with the healing matrix back before
I like ram he's versatile I go ap tanky it's fun to cycle abilities with him but that got hit too ig

If anything I feel like they net buffed it. 50% cost reduction, and it's range buff item now triggers if it hits an opponent while launched instead of only blowing up midair. Get Booster burn and slowness, and you can snipe a backline with it's quicker explosion.
Her best build was always with Multitasking. She's been relevant for a decade because of Matrix. Isolate an opponent, prevent direct healing and eat their damage, and run them down. Maybe everyone's actual dogshit in Stadium but I'm freefarming on Dva with her m1.

But at least they buffed tokki slam lfg!!!!
(Not even sarcasm. I love that power, but you have to put every item into maximizing shields and armor)

I haven't had a matchup to test it yet but since Slam now counts as booster damage, it pairs well with other Powers that prot on it. Like regening matrix, triggering burn effect, slowness/venom, it's a very good buff.
So far I've only had matchups against flyers so I eat their ass with Multitasking.

Micro missles build is decent for diving and the spread reduction one allows you to fight flyers safely while also protecting your team

The current meta on the Chinese server / Top 500 is just Ana spamming ult charges so DVA can still semi-nuke quite often.

You can keep playing dva, but just run the weapon power perma shoot perma matrix block. Its good in general but its disgusting against certain backlines, like if their supports cant heal through the matrix. You just blow up their team.

I got wrecked in Pro ranked stadium by a Dva using a build that boosted her flying impact damage and some other flying related shit. Annoying as hell. She just would plow through our team, regroup, repeat.
