When Baptiste activates Amplification Matrix, your Fusion Cannons won't be too handy due to damage falloff. However, if you happen to be in Pilot Form, your Light Gun can deal tremendous damage at range when shot through the Amplification Matrix. If done from a safe location, this can be in easy way to get some long-range kills while also building your ultimate meter up to perform Call Mech. With Dae-hyun going over the mech's status, on the mention of the reactor becoming unstable Song remembered their earlier conversation of the destruction of his hovercycle, and suggested purposely overloading the mech's reactor. After some protest, Dae-hyun obliged, and as Song distracted the omnic to buy him some time he successfully triggered an overload that would destroy the reactor in sixty seconds. The omnic would reach Busan before that however, so Song ejected from the mech and used her light gun to shoot the exposed reactor from afar, destroying both the mech and the omnic. She fell into the sea, where she was recovered by a search-and-rescue team and taken for medical treatment, Dae-hyun accompanying her. Fusion Cannons: D.Va's main weapons on the mech. Her mech can fire consistent shotgun-like bullets onto the targeted point. She can rapidly fire her bullets without needing to reload, but suffers from slow movement while firing.

Symmetra can create a teleporter through which D.Va can send her mech during Self-Destruct. When done right, this can catch an enemy team completely off guard and potentially wipe them out. Once her mech suit runs out of hitpoints (HP), D.Va ejects out of it, equipped with only a Light Gun. Though more vulnerable while outside the mech, she is a considerably smaller and more maneuverable target in this state. [32] D.Va can also eject out of her mech suit as part of her Self Destruct ultimate ability, which causes her mech suit to explode and deal massive area of effect damage shortly after ejection. [31] [32] Once the mech explodes, D.Va can use her second ultimate ability, Call Mech, which simply allows her to resuit into her mech. This can be done immediately after using the Self Destruct ability, but otherwise has a cooldown period that can be sped up by damaging opponents while on foot.

As long as you keep constant awareness of your teammates, you can both keep them safe from enemy fire. Zarya's Ultimate, Graviton Surge, can combo well with Self-Destruct; just make sure that if an enemy with a barrier (such as Reinhardt) is caught in the mix, you either kill him or take out his barrier, because otherwise the combo will be for naught. a b Richardson, Liz (March 15, 2022).

It is less effective when used on a group of enemies, but still provides a strong pressure and enough damage to gain a great amount of ultimate charge.
