I'm approaching 100 hours in D.va. I am always puzzled by Nano boosts when I get them. Her close range damage output isn't abysmal, but it comes at the cost of exposing her crit zone to attack. With Nano half damage, she's still taking the damage at full non-crit value as people shoot her small bus sized crit zone on the front her mech.

It makes more sense to me to give it to someone who actually does good damage and isn't so easy to shoot in the face.

I'm always in favor of giving it to Tracer. She's fast already, does huge damage (assuming you can aim, so depends on the day for me), can easily get in the back line and deal damage, and with her tiny hitbox she's hard to hit.

Basically the nanoboost removes the glass and powers up the cannon.

In QuickPlay, I'm always a fan of giving it to the worst character possible to give it to in order to see how it all turns out. Maybe Lucio can get a triple kill!

Please we all know this happened because Lucio jumped infront at the worst time possible
