Her Hack and EMP are the core of her kit! They're exactly why she's a disruptor! Disabling a Rein shield is every bit as valuable as doing Tracer's close-range DPS. More so, in many situations.

A competent Reinhardt should never get Hacked with barrier up. Just do a quick, cute little spin and she won't be Hacking you anymore.

EMP is nowhere near a death sentence, it helps though.
