One thing worth mentioning that most miss is regarding her boosters: "The Ability can be reactivated after 0.5 seconds to end its effect early." in addition, she can hit Q, then quickly E, to send your bomb flying. Once again note: you CAN also re-activate your Q as the bomb is flying to stop it moving and precisely place your mech where you want it 👍 secondly, it should be noted that playing against a butcher, her Mech drops meat, so a D'va kills gives double-🍖 to butcher I can't tell you how many times my D'va failed to notice that then somehow butcher is super stacked late game, clearly not her fault 🤦♂
in addition, vs a butcher, or even a "Protector of Aiur" Artanis, I would strongly suggest this build: [T2321234,DVa] Lvl 1: Pro Moves your mech gets 2% move speed AND 2 Armor every time you take damage up to 30 armor & move speed it's really good for avoiding ganks in addition to all this, basic attacks vs heroes in baby dva mode, reduce the mech cooldown by 1 additional second! Lvl 4: Nuclear Option This one is just good for zoning Lvl 7: Hit the Nitrous Boosters give 300% move speed for 0.5 seconds, during that time it stuns 0.5 seconds again this will help get you out of ganks Lvl 10: Bunny Hop Becoming unstoppable and stunning them every time you hit them 3 times this one is just great for shutting down the enemies, as well as using it to get out Lvl 13: Good to Go in the event you're out of your mech, being able to boop them back and torpedo dash out can save your life! Lvl 16: Emergency Shielding when your mech dies, instead it gains a 280 health shield for 4 seconds again by this point you should be nearly impossible to kill unless you're sloppy Lvl 20: Ablative Armor 45% of the spell damage you take you heal back over 4 seconds With this build this will allow D'va to be a consistent yet ungankable off-laner, and if you manage your cooldowns, it will frustrate the butcher to no end. Because at this point most butchers & Artanis will know about taking advantage of Dva's mech, but with this build, they should leave frustrated. 👍
She rarely translates to solokills or insane damage numbers, takes her long drawn out fights to win oft times in coordination with team. Additionally he went a more frontline build than pure dmg build here
I feel like the 1 thing that D'va excels at better than other bruisers: Being Annoying bumping into them, then zooming away, stuff like that If you're D'va and you're not annoying the enemy team then you're doing it wrong 🫠 With that said I think you were proper annoying that game, I approve! 👍
Hey! Thanks for a video! One of my favourite characters in the game. Although I feel like Full Metal has more potential in team fights due to immediate little heals it provides. In fact you made me want to try it out myself and simply compare numbers.
I do think that in a fight you have the potential to heal more with Full Metal, but I also feel like it never works out how I want it to. I either get bursted and get no healing from it, or I am too low on hp to go to the fight and get there late because I had to go heal at base. Liquid Cooling Fixes those problems. I'm not a D.va pro though so I could be wrong. Just giving my input based off of my games with her
Good game. I have always liked DVa but since her rework she is now decent. I prefer the W build too but never pick Liquid Cooling. I should give that a try.
DVA feels like playing tank sometimes. Not super impactful, but consistent like u said. Not my favorite bruiser, cus she doesn't EXCEL. I love malthael for insane Wave/camp clear, and Imperius for getting kills and damage. DVA is slippery bruiser with some unique quirks
I played a lot of ranked in 2018ish. I got to Diamond 1 many times. I was still in school and doing a lot of sports so I kept getting decayed and lost all motivation to keep grinding ranked. I wish I would have hit Masters/GM before the game got put in maintain mode because it takes too long to find a game now. Even if I did grind ranked I would probably just get decayey because life is too busy again.

[T2321234,DVa]
Lvl 1: Pro Moves
your mech gets 2% move speed AND 2 Armor every time you take damage up to 30 armor & move speed
it's really good for avoiding ganks
in addition to all this, basic attacks vs heroes in baby dva mode, reduce the mech cooldown by 1 additional second!
Lvl 4: Nuclear Option
This one is just good for zoning
Lvl 7: Hit the Nitrous
Boosters give 300% move speed for 0.5 seconds, during that time it stuns 0.5 seconds
again this will help get you out of ganks
Lvl 10: Bunny Hop
Becoming unstoppable and stunning them every time you hit them 3 times
this one is just great for shutting down the enemies, as well as using it to get out
Lvl 13: Good to Go
in the event you're out of your mech, being able to boop them back and torpedo dash out can save your life!
Lvl 16: Emergency Shielding
when your mech dies, instead it gains a 280 health shield for 4 seconds
again by this point you should be nearly impossible to kill unless you're sloppy
Lvl 20: Ablative Armor
45% of the spell damage you take you heal back over 4 seconds
With this build this will allow D'va to be a consistent yet ungankable off-laner, and if you manage your cooldowns, it will frustrate the butcher to no end. Because at this point most butchers & Artanis will know about taking advantage of Dva's mech, but with this build, they should leave frustrated. 👍
I feel like she is impactful and the number are there, but I also don’t feeel the impact some way some how
She rarely translates to solokills or insane damage numbers, takes her long drawn out fights to win oft times in coordination with team. Additionally he went a more frontline build than pure dmg build here
I hear ya there. You kinda have to tickle your enemies down and then win off of a good self destruct
I feel like the 1 thing that D'va excels at better than other bruisers:
Being Annoying
bumping into them, then zooming away, stuff like that
If you're D'va and you're not annoying the enemy team then you're doing it wrong 🫠

Womp womps 😢
Can't win em all
Good game. I have always liked DVa but since her rework she is now decent. I prefer the W build too but never pick Liquid Cooling. I should give that a try.
I love that talent. It's defiantly worth a try
Love the hello at the start
Hello there
You sir, are a menace 🙂
Is this ez mode?
DVA feels like playing tank sometimes. Not super impactful, but consistent like u said. Not my favorite bruiser, cus she doesn't EXCEL. I love malthael for insane Wave/camp clear, and Imperius for getting kills and damage.
DVA is slippery bruiser with some unique quirks
I feel the same way. She just gets outshined by so many others
No deathwing Dva babyrage! jk I like her sort scrapyard aesthetic one I think.
I don't like the baby D.va part of that skin. Other than that it is a really good skin
alwais nice to watch ur video!! thx thingwub!!
So have you ever played ranked mate?
He did a ranked duo series with a friend. Takes a long time to get games in ranked though.
It's also in the description 🙂
@@Trasherke That's exactly why I'm wording it like this. You say you never play it now, but you might have 2-4 years ago.
@@LegsON ow got ya, misread it then, my bad
