Theories and interesting things:

• Doomfist gains ‘shields’ with his passive meaning that EMP eats them
• Genji cannot deflect ANY of DF abilities. Only the Primary fire. AND he takes full damage from the abilities.
• Sombra appears to be an extremely powerful counter similar to countering Tracer with Hack
• Widow and Hanzo are still very good against DF. Body & Head Hitboxes are pretty big
• Lucio will make his mobility even faster paced and more devastating.
• Ultimate can be used to fly in the air and hunter a hiding Mercy, beware!
